TAYLOR SWIFT Photographed By Michael Schwartz For Variety’s Directors On Directors (December 12, 2022)

thanks for informing me lol @laurencem @catharsisxf

as someone who reads xfiles/msr fanfiction

i dont know what POANG Pals means

crappy motel episodes are my favourite episodes & i need to get over my fear of backgrounds

the x files is maybe the funniest show ever cause almost always if they do something crazy to mulder or scully in an episode they do roughly that same thing to the other at some point.

were you disappointed that mulder spent all of unusual suspects messing around with the gunmen but scully didn't get to? three of a kind.

angry that scully keeps getting kidnapped or held hostage like in irresistible and our town? kill switch and drive.

annoyed that mulder went crazy in pusher and pulled a gun on scully instead of the other way around? wetwired.

tired of only mulder's exes showing up in fire and the end and making scully jealous? lazarus and all things.

mad that mulder was the only one to be intensely invested in the cases in conduit and paper hearts? beyond the sea and all souls.

frustrated that mulder got to have an ill-advised affair with a murder suspect in 3 and scully didn't? never again.

wish it had been mulder obsessively calling scully while she ignored him in favour of the case in war of the coprophages? chinga.

feel it's unfair that one of mulder's relatives got shot in anasazi while scully's family were all perfectly healthy? the blessing way.

find it odd that only scully had a brain tumour throughout her cancer arc? the gift.

irritated that in duane barry, ascension, and one breath, only scully got abducted and experimented on by aliens, then returned with little to no explanation and stuck in a weird coma for a while? requiem, this is not happening, and deadalive.

It’s missing stevenat hours 😔😮‍💨

The bat made contact with the ball with a satisfying thwack.

"Ooh, that's good," said Mulder. "Alright, what you may find is you concentrate on hitting that little ball… and the rest of the world just fades away - all your everyday nagging concerns-"

Scully giggled, and they swung the bat again, sending another ball flying. Thwack. He continued, his lips on her ear tickling its shell.

"How you probably couldn't afford that nice new suede coat on a G-woman's salary-"

Thwack.

"-how you threw away a promising career in medicine to hunt aliens with a crackpot - albeit brilliant man-"

Another thwack, and she turned her head to roll her eyes at him, her breath hitching at his proximity.

"-keeping your hands off your gorgeous partner; getting to the heart of a global conspiracy; your obscenely overdue triple-x bill- oh sorry Scully, the last three problems are mine, not yours."

Thwack. "Three, Mulder?" She asked, turning to him again, eyes sparkling with mischief. "You think I'm gorgeous?"

"Yes," he breathed, and her lips parted in surprise at the sudden intensity in his voice. She swallowed.

"You're not too bad yourself," she murmured, turning back to their joined hands on the bat. Thwack. Her back is pressed against his chest and she can feel his heartbeat, a rapid tattoo against her skin.

"And uh-" he cleared his throat. "I'm not doing a great job of keeping my hands off you, am I?"

"No, not really," she said. "But somehow, I don't seem to mind."

Thwack. Before she could overthink it, she let go of the bat, turned in the circle of his arms and cupping his face, pressed her lips to his. They're soft, warm, everything she imagined they would be like in the hours she spent fantasizing about doing just this. She heard the bat clattering to the plate before she felt his arms on her lower back and his lips move against hers to kiss her back. 

"I've wanted you for so long," he said, his voice low, teeth nipping at her bottom lip. She moaned softly against his mouth and felt his fingers tighten on her back.

"I've wanted you too," she whispered, capturing his mouth in hers again.

"Hey!" Came the ball-boy's voice, and Mulder and Scully's lips pulled away. "You two done or can I go home?"

"Go home!" Shouted Mulder, without breaking Scully's gaze, then kissed her again, making her giggle. 

"Don't you want to play baseball, Mulder?" She asked, pulling away and frowning slightly. "I know you don't get to do that very often."

"Sure, but I don't get to kiss you very often either," he grinned. "Besides-"

He kissed her on her nose, and her face broke out into a smile.

"-I like you better."
