Summary
She said his name like a plea, and the desperation hadn’t come from the stoic, calm Olivia Benson Amanda had known for half her career. It had been nothing less than a prayer, a call to someone or something that could hear her.

Summary
The door creaks. Her eyes fly open, watching his shadow in the leftover light of the bathroom.
He’s shirtless when he steps back into the room, dressed only in a pair of silk boxers. His hair is still wet, tousled from a halfhearted towel-dry and tracking water onto the carpet.
He pauses before he lowers himself to the floor, frozen by the foot of the bed. She wonders how she can hear his heart beating like this, frantic in the heavy silence, before she realizes it’s her own.
He’s watching her. She can feel him. His eyes are trained on her, wide and blinking in the breathless dark. When he’s satisfied she’s asleep he speaks, almost too quiet to hear.
Almost.
“I don’t know how to do this,” he murmurs. “I don’t know how to let you go.”

In which a recently-engaged Chloe and a totally-not-jealous Lucifer travel to Mammoth Lakes to help solve a murder. Hotel room and all-you-can-eat continental breakfast provided.
What a shame there's just one bed.

Summary
Marcus doesn’t see, but she does. She sees perfectly, trapped between Pierce and the concrete wall, left with nothing but a clear-cut view of the closet’s only entrance.
She watches, frozen, not-quite processing, as Lucifer steps through. Yellow light streams in behind him. For a moment the sounds of voices filter through: the dregs of the bullpen, seeping in at his feet, and then the door swings shut behind him.
The yellow light fades. It’s just him, standing in the half-lit hallway, a manila folder stamped EVIDENCE drooping from pinched fingers.
An errand for Ella, she thinks absently. He’s doing her a favor.
He sees her half a second later. The folder is already halfway out of his hands by the time she musters his name: floating like a stamped, dead leaf to the concrete floor.
He goes pale. The blood runs from his veins and turns him ghost-white. His knuckles clench on wheezing air.
“Chloe,” he chokes.

Summary
She gnaws on her gum. Shifts, slightly, to ebb the ache between her legs. He stares at his hand, lost in thought, and she resists the urge to ask him, please, to just fucking kiss her already.
But that would be begging. And — more importantly — that would prove Lucifer Morningstar right.
So she prepares to unclasp her necklace, or peel off her socks, or fling a piece of lint from her pants, because if this is how he wants to play then she can certainly keep up.
“Shirt,” he says, without looking up from his glass.
She freezes.
He must sense her silence, or her failure to move, because he looks up with black eyes flashing in the dark.
“Detective,” he echoes, voice dangerously low. “Take off your shirt.”
--
After a failed party and a broken engagement, Chloe shows up at Lucifer's door.

Summary
Chloe thought their partnership was over.
That changes after a bomb scare and a forgotten, would-be dying love confession. She’s left trying to piece together Lucifer’s feelings and her own, made more complicated by Kinley’s escape from prison and an undercover case that puts them closer than ever. Deep down she knows what she wants…but lingering guilt and the sharp edges of her past make it hard to move on.
They have a lot to work through, and it won’t always be easy. But they’ll work through it together.

What if there was no conspiracy? What if Mulder was just a regular FBI Agent? What if Scully was just a bureau pathologist? What would be different? What would be the same?

Summary
Beginning with the events of "The End" and ending sometime after "The Sixth Extinction: Amor Fati," and told in a series of between-the-scene vignettes, this is my re-imagining of Season Six. Amid the re-emergence of Diana Fowley and the loss of the X-Files, Scully tries, with Mulder's help, to turn the impossible into reality.
The title is taken from the Billy Joel song "Lullaby (Goodnight My Angel)."

MSIV left the X-File fandom on the edge of a cliff that, in the absence of GA, will never be resolved to any level of satisfaction. Alien is my attempt to do what Chris Carter could not — provide closure for the series as a whole. What happens following Scully’s revelations on the dock? What becomes of William, Skinner, Reyes, and The Smoking Man? Find out, in Part 2 of the Cleaning Up After Chris Carter Series, Alien.
