Do people actually have lists of favorite xf episodes? Because I'm trying to think of my top ten and it's impossible.

Ficlet based on this post by @unremarkablehouse speculating about conversation between never again and memento mori. In this they didn’t talk at all between.

Mulder was about to leave for work when his phone rang. “Mulder.”

“Hey, Mulder, it’s me.” Scully said on the other side of the phone. He was still a little mad at her for putting herself in danger and bailing on the case. He knew she was still very mad at him for sticking his nose where it (arguably) didn’t belong.

She was probably already at the office, calling him to tell him that he needed to hurry up. “What?” He asked harshly. Maybe too harshly. Her heard Scully draw a shallow breath on the other end but she remained silent. “Scully, what is it?” He prompted a little more gently. Maybe she was going to apologize, which would give him a perfect chance to do so in turn.

He hated fighting with her. Not initially, not when the adrenaline was coursing through his body and his head was light with anger. Afterwards though, he felt hollow. Felt a pang when he stopped himself for reaching for the phone to tell her about a world war two documentary she should watch, or a tip he just received, or just to say hello. “Can you-“ she started, then he heard a rustling as Scully pulled the phone away from her ear. He heard someone else talking in her side.

“Dr. Scully, we have more scans, if you’d like to speak with Dr. Andrews abouts treatment plan she’s available now, your belongings are in the other room. He heard more rustling.

“Hey. Sorry.”

“Sorry? Scully what treatment plan? Whats going on?” He was frozen next to the door of his apartment, hand on the door knob, as he became vaguely away of the sound of beeping and buzzing florescent in the background.

“Mulder, can you meet me at the hospital?” She said suddenly after remaining silent for another handful of heart beats. His keys nearly slipped from his hand.

“Is this about a case?”

“No,” she responded tersely.

“I’ll be right there, Scully,” he said, opening his door and not bothering to lock it behind him as any feelings of animosity for her melted and drained through his feet back into the ground where they belonged. “I’ll be right there.” And then she hung up on him. Flowers, he needed flowers.

Okay so I dont speak Spanish but I’ve taken enough Spanish classes and worked with a lot of Spanish speaking people and I almost piss myself laughing any time (and this only happens like twice) that Mulder and Scully try to speak Spanish because their accents are so goddamn bad

FOX MULDER and DANA SCULLY | The X-Files: Fight The Future

“Goddamn it they missed” we all say in unison

“We hope this email finds you well” babe, the only emails I hope find me well are the ones from Archive of Our Own

I could do my summer work, which is not due for 18 more days, but feels responsible OR i could write fanfiction. Which also some how feels responsible

Pardon?

David Duchovny as Fox Mulder on Saturday Night Live, 1998

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

My friends and I are watching dr who together (just the david Tennant seasons we are on limited time) and we just watched the season 2 finale and idk how to process it. One of my friends laid face down on the bed for ten minutes after and i feel like that was an appropriate response

We are James C*rden haters and I don’t onow the reason but im a sheep

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!)

Oh my god do i want her or do i want to be her

oh she was SLAYING the 90’s

Early season + blue shirt = i may not be entirely straight

I am not in the habit of shipping real people however there’s definitely a universe where they’re together

Gillian x David | Always

The quality of the image got a little janky but this is my first time touching digital art in like a year and the first time I’ve drawn Scully

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

Because without the xfiles personal interest is all I have

Sooooo apparently i do art now? And, of course, the very first thing I finished HAD to be X Files fanart. the usual "click for better quality"

I'm really happy with how it turned out!!

Colour gradients and more of an illustration style are fun and I vastly prefer them over hyper-realism.

“No, for some reason I don’t think that would work. Hasn’t your landlord always hated you?”

“Yeah, I have no idea why.” Mulder watched as Scully made a show of looking around his apartment, first at the basketball on the floor, then to the collection of porn tapes in the cabinet under the T.V., then to the half open door of his “bed room” where a cardboard box filled with manilla files was wedged in the door.

“Yeah. I wonder,” She responded flatly, “There’s no way he’s letting you stay. Listen,” she was going to regret this, “You can stay with me until you find somewhere else.”

Mulder stared at her in awe like she’d grown white wings and there was suddenly a halo floating above her head. “You mean it-”

“Just until you find a new place,” She said firmly, more to herself than him.

"How do you write such realistic dialogue-" I TALK TO MYSELF. I TALK TO MYSELF AND I PRETEND I AM THE ONE SAYING THE LINE. LIKE SANITY IS SLOWLY SLIPPING FROM BETWEEN MY FINGERS WITH EVERY MEASLY WORD THEY TYPE OUT. THAT IS HOW.

Frohike>>>

The Lone Gunmen + Mulder & Frohike lifelong friendship...

I dont understand softball or baseball but i need this!!

I need a MSR high school au but it's actually a baseball/softball summer camp/rivals to lovers AU with pitcher!scully and catcher!mulder facing off across a corn field in the space between two summer camps, and then falling in love across the 66 ft between mound and home.

happy last day of pride month

Pretty gay- i mean pretty girl! Pretty girl.

miss holly munro!

Skinner didn’t really think the Arcadia case was going to be an x-file. They asked him if he knew any two agents who could believable portray a married couple and he said “these babies wont just act like a married couple for their neighbors, they’ll have US questioning weather or not they’re a married couple”

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…”

the curse of summer is buying and eating an inadvisable amount of fruit in single sittings.
