What’s going on in the world that made so many new people start the x files recently (including myself who started it last October) where did we all come from? Does the world go to shit and our preprogrammed instinct is to go “hey alien show from the 90s!”
Au where Scully’s more of a smoker than she is in the show and she’s trying to quit but its like the episode of community where Britta tries to quit and shes in a meeting with Skinner and she just losing it and he’s like “do you need a break…” and mulder’s like “no she’s quitting smoking” and Skinner’s like “can she not…”
We are James C*rden haters and I don’t onow the reason but im a sheep
They’re MY parents

I have 1 episode of season 8 left and i keep going back to watch season 2 episodes for my fic (a muse, a myth, a mortal) and I miss the vibe of the early seasons so much, i hate that the later seasons feel like a different show, I hate Mulder’s abduction, I hate William arc, what the fuck was that?
I love Reyes and Dogget though, I think the show could end now and have a spin off with them where Mulder and Scully occasionally appear as guest stars to help them with cases and their life is otherwise domestic bliss
Not to try to influence the poll or anything but shes the hottest person ever

So my parents used to watch the show way back when it was airing and they were married and all that and a few weeks ago my mom asked if i wanted to watch and episode with her. I said sure and put on home; And while i’m sitting there like “aw i love the scene where scully tells mulder he’d lapse into catatonic shock with out his cell phone” my mom is literally hiding under her blanket
I know a lot of people have X-Files episodes that scared them or freaked them out, and I probably would feel the same way if I saw those scenes in a movie.
My brain refuses to get scared watching this show. My tolerance for scary/gory/creepy is pretty much infinite. It’s all just background for whatever the world’s most adorable FBI Agents are doing.
If Mulder and Scully are on screen, I’m just focusing on how cute they are. If they’re not on screen, I’m thinking about how cute they were in the previous scene.
I’m watching, I follow the plot, but I am filtering everything through my love of the characters.
I think I have enough fic at this point to make a master post, collecting them all in one place. Organized chronologically for now, there isn't quite enough to make categories. :)
wild side - G, 1.205 words (AO3 link)
“Hey, Scully?” “Yeah?” “What is the craziest thing you’ve ever done?” Or: sometimes being stuck in the middle of nowhere on a dark and stormy night with your work partner of five-plus years is the best possible version of events.
in conclusion - T, 3.370 words (AO3 link)

sanctuary - T, 1.550 words (AO3 link)

mend into pieces - Explicit, 1.641 words (AO3 link)
There is nowhere she would rather be than here, with him, making the biggest mistake of her life and enjoying every second of it.

She’ll break herself for him as he does for her. -- Set in early season 2, right after Scully's return.
travel in style - G, 1.401 words (AO3 link)
“I can’t believe there wasn’t a single room available anywhere,” Scully says, snuggling deeper under the jacket she’s using as a blanket, already sounding half asleep as she tilts the driver’s seat back into a reclined position. “Three motels and not one single bed to be found.” Mulder shifts in the passenger seat – which she had insisted he should take because of the leg room – and desperately tries to get comfortable. “That has literally never happened before,” he agrees, sliding the seat back as far as it will go. It’s still too cramped. “God, Scully, how can you ever sleep in the car? You always make it look so easy.”
from this morning forward - Explicit, 7.233 words (AO3 link)
Moving back in happens slowly. It's not a decision, it's not a plan.

got you covered - T, 2.419 words (AO3 link)
“Is it a bit cold in here?” He wraps his arms around himself, looking at her in her thick cardigan next to him on the couch. “The heating’s broken,” she says. “I’m sorry, I should have called you before you came over.”
words behind the meaning - G, 3.175 words (AO3 link)
He tells her he owes her everything and she owes him nothing. She knows that's not true, but she doesn't get to tell him. Life has other plans. But she knows. And once life lets her, she will tell him. -- Post-Fight the Future: they don't kiss in that hallway, but they get there eventually.
