Summary
⧫⧫
I can’t say with certainty where we’ll end up (together or separately).
But for now, these chapters are manifesting as little explorations of Mulder and Scully’s internality within each episode, usually accompanied by a little off-screen vignette, before or after.
Though I’m writing these because I’m compelled to do so, I hope that you enjoy them! That would be lagniappe.
Forever and always, fuck AI. This thing ain't perfect, but it's all mine. Do not run my work through AI for any reason.

Summary
“It’s true, Dana,” Mrs Mulder said, finally, when Dana remained silent. “You’re coming to live with us for a while. This way, your mother can focus on helping your little brother. And your father can beaver away at his work on the new base. It will be no trouble at all to us. We have plenty of space. You will have your own room, very private, with a lock on the door and everything. It’ll be safer for you. And good for Fox. He needs to be challenged.”
Dana had no disagreements with Mrs Mulder on that score, but she rather doubted the long-term effectiveness of the strategy being proposed. Again, she glanced around the room. “But, Mrs Mulder, your son hates me.”

What if when Charlie got rheumatic fever, the Scully family happened to live on the Vineyard? And also, it were 1943 -- the year a secret Navy base appeared on the Vineyard, and multiple test pilots disappeared?

Summary
What if Mulder returned to England after "The Erlenmeyer Flask"? And someone decided this was the perfect time to start stalking Scully?
OR
“They’re goddamn right you should’ve told me!” His voice thundered off eighteenth-century oak beams. “You could be dead, right now!”
She made a noise like he’d slapped her. Had he really just repeated their first fight? Yes. Of course. Because Fox Mulder was a sap and a fuckup and he’d left her all alone out there, and now- “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to yell like that. I’m just…”
“I didn’t think you’d care.” Her voice was the size of a lethal injection needle. It threaded neatly under his skin and into his veins and sent breathless death straight into his heart.
“What?” he rasped.
“You’d moved on. Or, away. You’d moved away. You have another life at Oxford, now, Mulder. Other goals. Other priorities. I should handle these things on my own. I need to handle these things on my own.”
“...Is this why you won’t answer my emails? Is this why you screen all your calls?”Bookmarked by lightless_lamb

Summary
Hawkins is burning. In the shadow of monsters and the military, something rotten is spreading through the town, leaving its people without a proper home.
While Joyce and Hopper struggle to stay on the same page, they’re also trying to keep a family together on borrowed time. Rationing what’s left of food and hope, chasing ghosts of their past through the radio, pretending the world isn’t on the verge of ending.
But something is still transmitting beneath the static... something still hungry for blood. And the harder they fight to save what’s left of their home, the closer they come to the one truth that will change everything.
Set between Seasons 4 and 5. Canon-divergent. Mature themes.
