Summary
Scully had very hesitantly confessed, over the phone on Christmas Day, that she had been alerted to Emily’s situation by an anonymous phone caller who sounded just like her dead sister. She needs your help. Go to her.
It’s exactly the same reason, the only reason, why Melissa would now be telling him to turn around.

Summary
Scully makes a discovery at Mulder's apartment, and the story tracks the evolution of their partnership and relationship from that point on. The story explores the role of mystery in Scully's life. Seasons 3-7.
"It’s an ordinary kind of inheritance for a rich boy from the Vineyard: a house, some bank accounts, the family jewels. So much of Mulder’s life and career—and by association, her own—has involved the grim inheritance and legacy of his father’s decisions. It’s strange to consider, for once, a part of the Mulder legacy that can be cleaned at the jeweler’s, and stored in a safe."

Summary
Written for the MSR Bingo Challenge, in response to the prompts: "an interrupted moment", "an argument about hidden feelings", [free], "stuck in the middle of nowhere", and "the aftermath of a traumatic case".
The look in his eyes, when she’d looked up at him and reached for his hand, had been far away, almost haunted, and it hadn’t gone away. Something about this case was bothering him, and–and this was the unusual part, when it came to Mulder–he didn’t want Scully to know what it was.

Summary
He lusted after this feeling, this scary new state of mind that roped around his senses like a lifebuoy around his torso, keeping him from drowning in his own madness and yet doing nothing to bring him to the island he could see right in front of him.
He was a child in an open sea, and Mulder did not know how to swim.

Summary
What if Mulder returned to England after "The Erlenmeyer Flask"? And someone decided this was the perfect time to start stalking Scully?
OR
“They’re goddamn right you should’ve told me!” His voice thundered off eighteenth-century oak beams. “You could be dead, right now!”
She made a noise like he’d slapped her. Had he really just repeated their first fight? Yes. Of course. Because Fox Mulder was a sap and a fuckup and he’d left her all alone out there, and now- “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to yell like that. I’m just…”
“I didn’t think you’d care.” Her voice was the size of a lethal injection needle. It threaded neatly under his skin and into his veins and sent breathless death straight into his heart.
“What?” he rasped.
“You’d moved on. Or, away. You’d moved away. You have another life at Oxford, now, Mulder. Other goals. Other priorities. I should handle these things on my own. I need to handle these things on my own.”
“...Is this why you won’t answer my emails? Is this why you screen all your calls?”Bookmarked by cabbagesandqueens
