If You Wanna See The Unremarkable House You Have To Finish The Series If You Wanna See The Unremarkable

Triangle vs S2 Abduction arc perfect encapsulated

The contrast between the way Mulder and Scully act whenever they have to rescue the other one from something is amazing.

Because Scully immediately goes into hyper-competent mode. Like she has A PLAN and she is going to do the plan and to hell with anyone who is going to stop her. Everything by the book about her goes away and she’s just like nope we are doing everything this way if you get in my way I will end you. I am very worried but I refuse to let my emotions influence my plan unless I am using them to scare the shit out of bad guys. I am short and full of rage and I am the only person with the smarts to pull this off. Do not stop me.

And then Mulder just like…descends into pure chaos. He will either snap and nearly kill someone or he will descend into a puddle of tears on the floor. There is very little in between. He has not slept in a week. He has not had a coherent thought beyond the need to save her. There is no plan just him racing blindly into the darkness because there is nothing in him beyond the need to get her back. And yes to hell with everyone who tries to stop him but in a way that’s tinged with so much grief and unpredictability that’s it’s just as terrifying to us as it is to the people around him.

Idk I just like the contrast.

(Also this is as of S2E6 so no spoilers please!)

So a while ago i was writing a “5 times scully was getting flirted with and mulder noticed and 1 time she did” but i never finished it and I never got to the part i really wanted to write but its pride month so I’m going to erite that singular scene right now ready go:

Carefully, after the car already started moving, Mulder said, “wow Scully, even women flirt with you.” Scully turned sharply, luckily he was the one driving.

“What do you mean?”

“That witness-“

“You mean the one in that white top?” Scully asked. Mulder nodded to her. “No.”

“Yeah, definitely.” Scully buried her red face in her hands.

“Mulder turn the car around,” she said. Mulder blinked in surprise… that had not been the reply he was expecting. He almost followed her instructions until his brain caught up with his body.

“What- no!”

“Oh come on! If it were you-“

“If it were me you would tell me I was being unprofessional!”

“Mulder.”

“Scully.”

“Please?”

“No, I want to get to bed.” That was a lie. Mulder didn’t care about going to sleep, he did, however, care about Scully going to flirt with someone else.

Idk what that was happy pride

I really appreciate how much Scully cries on screen because usually a strong female character like Scully wouldn’t cry on screen at all but Scully does because she’s a real 3 dimensional character who gets to have feelings outside being strong and even though she doesn’t get to have a lot of female friends or she sometimes is forced to be more masculine because of her career but she still gets to be soft or scared sometimes and she gets to feel things

(Jury’s still out on that but shes the loml)

Oh my gosh. I just found this website that walks you though creating a believable society. It breaks each facet down into individual questions and makes it so simple! It seems really helpful for worldbuilding!
