Summary
Ever wonder what happened between the silence of Never Again and the flowers from Memento Mori? Ever wonder if Scully's night with Ed Jerse affected her relationship with Mulder in any way? Ever wonder what pushed Scully to go to the hospital and find out about her cancer in the first place? Ever wonder how her illness might have affected her work or if she ever thought about Leonard Betts' words?
Well, we did...

Sometimes a crime scene is Mulder’s knee pressed against hers in the back corner booth of a crowded diner on a case in the middle of nowhere.

Summary
He’s on the side of the interstate in the warm woven center of night, and Scully is not in his passenger seat. He’s thinking about a research paper he wrote as an undergraduate about suicide methods.
a small weird cancer arc thing about the space between elegy and demons, because it haunts me that those episodes are back to back. lobotomies, psychotic breaks, Vonnegut, best friends. and berries

Summary
Tumblr has seen fit to change its TOS policies regarding "adult" content, and unfortunately that means a lot of the intimate illustrations I've done over the years are no longer allowed. AO3 will now be the new home for these fan drawings.
Generally everything in this set is MSR, unless otherwise indicated. Please do *NOT* share or post these drawings elsewhere.

Summary
Deep down, Mulder knew that if they were entangled even more tightly, he’d eventually become more irritated than aroused by her voice. He’d hear it in reference to uneaten vegetables and unopened mail and unfolded laundry. That holy righteous rage of hers, that unquenchable fire that roared at him to be better and do better and live better, would illuminate not just his career but the entirety of his being. And he doubted he could live up to that scrutiny. After almost almost getting her killed any number of times, somehow Mulder knew that asking her to forgive more mundane betrayals would be the final straw. Abduction? Possession? Cannibalism? All in a day’s work. Leaving sunflower shells everywhere? That was a bridge too far. It was better, safer, sweeter, kinder to love each other the way they did. To keep some mystery alive, and with it her steadfast belief in him. Delaying consummation was delaying his inevitable disappointment of her.

Inspired by Lepusarcticus' beautifully-written series "Incrementum," a series of interlinked, internally-consistent, episodic MSR vignettes in roughly canonical order.

In which the author attempts to play Dave Filoni to Chris Carter's George Lucas.

Summary
Eddie Van Blundht, or rather, the tree that fell in the forest that both he and Scully had been pretending they hadn't heard... but it had definitely made a noise. A loud one. One that left a deafening echo, really, that lingered in the air between all of their interactions since. Some unspeakable sonic boom that made Mulder's ears ring so bad it had been keeping him up at night. He watched her now, across the office, the slant of the late afternoon light cutting her clean through the middle, only to be seemingly absorbed into its own wound. Scully wouldn't use a word like cleave to describe it, but it's how it looked to Mulder -- how it felt.

Summary
“The issue, Mulder,” she interjected, before he could quote her undergraduate thesis to her, “Is that such things would exist outside the nature of the Universe as we perceive it. Alternate realities are absolutely improvable, so far as science can ‘prove’ anything—and so they’d have to remain hypothetical, regardless of their existence or nonexistence.”
In the dark, she only felt him shift closer. “You know, Scully, when you say things like that, I just can’t help myself.”Mulder and Scully wait for daybreak in the White Mountains, retracing their steps.

Summary
There was something about sitting in the dark with someone, in the cab of a sedan at night. Two beings, side by side, collected together in shadow. Dim light cast from a half-moon or a distant streetlamp scarcely catching silhouettes, car parked determinedly out of sight, engine cold. There was something anonymous about it. Clandestine. As if time, and usual protective walls, ceased to exist.
Follow Mulder and Scully, as their relationship unfolds then folds back in on itself, as they sit together - over many seasons of stakeouts.
What can happen in the dark?
Written for the 2021 X-Files SMUT exchange. Yes, it's that kind of story, so buckle up.

Summary
Sequel to The 13th Sign. It might be the end of the world. Fox Mulder had a psychic vampire on the loose, a six-year-old son in tow, a ton of emotional baggage, and an FBI budget, but at least he wasn't dead. Mulder felt things were looking up - romantically and apocalyptically.

Summary
If someone wrote "Time Travel for Dummies," the guidebook should include a chapter titled “Love as a Form of Self-flagellation.” Or “She’s Your Touchstone, You’re a Stranger.” Mulder’s ancient files documented time travel, parallel universes, multiverses, and wormholes. Back in the day, he’d been a regular G-man with a hot partner, a hazy job description, and a plan to thwart an alien invasion. Then the world ended. Scully vanished. And none of his X-files offered any guidance on romance in a time of pleated pants and shoulder pads.

When did the rash, brash, solipsistic, arrogant Agent Mulder quit his ditching and bitching ways and morph into the attuned, sensitive, generous, still gorgeous guy who wooed and won Scully (a-gain) years later?

Summary
In 2012 the invasion started, but no one saw it. This oversight cost them - his reputation, her purpose - and sent them in different directions. An unsanctioned case with a familiar threat puts everything at risk, and as they race to save what matters most, standing alone may not be an option. MSR. Angst. Novel-length. Alternative events diverging post-IWTB, ignoring/replacing S10&11.

Summary
For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, and for Scully so loved Mulder that she’s cracked his ribs to restart his heart and dug bloodied fingers into his mangled thigh to slow the gush of his femoral artery.
If her unfettered belief in Mulder was enough to give him eternal life, the sun would burn out first.
