    Summary

    There's a first time for everything, but when the thing itself defies explanation, maybe there are more firsts than just the one.

    Or: five moments and everything between and after.

    Summary

    2008 Mulder wakes up in 1996, in the apartment of his younger self, but that version of him is gone. When Scully comes to check on her partner, she finds someone who looks like Mulder, but older, lined with years she hasn’t lived yet. What begins as suspicion and fear unravels into recognition, longing, and an impossible intimacy across time.

    Summary

    Over six years, 42 Hegel Place had changed. Mulder’s bachelor pad had been rearranged, reflecting his mercurial moods. Since his brain had been lobbed into by their enemies, Scully was spending more time there than ever; influencing its arrangement. It is where they both retreated at the end of a long week.

    Their Friday movie-routine, however, becomes disrupted when Mulder starts “accidentally” leaving his adult films in the VHS player for Scully to find.

    Was he trying to shock her, inspire interest, or tell her about himself?

    Summary

    When Senator William Scully’s reelection campaign draws deadly threats, he hires Fox Mulder — an ex-FBI agent turned private bodyguard — to protect his headstrong daughters. Dana Scully, brilliant, independent, and infuriated at being shadowed, clashes instantly with Mulder’s rules and restraint. But as the danger closes in, so does the charged tension between protector and protected.

    Summary

    “Come on, Scully. I’m a single man with a dangerous job. I carry a gun for a living. I disappear without notice. I sleep on couches and in motels and occasionally in our office. I don’t exactly scream stable home environment.”

    “Yes, you scream questionable life choices and no experience with children–”
    He snorted. 
    “—But you also scream resilient. And protective. And incapable of walking away from someone who needs you.”

     

     

    Mulder and Scully’s partnership deepens even further when Mulder petitions to adopt his biological niece.
