    Summary

    With Emily cured and legally adopted, Dana Scully has left the X-Files behind, carving out a quieter life as a single mother and instructor at Quantico. In a new home and a new chapter, she’s committed to giving Emily stability, love, and a strong sense of identity. But old ties don’t sever easily. Despite his emotional distance and a life shaped by loss, Fox Mulder slowly begins to form a gentle, genuine connection with Emily.

    As Emily pulls him in with innocent trust and boundless curiosity, Mulder is forced to confront questions of belonging, purpose, and the life he thought he’d never want. And for Scully, who’s worked so hard to build a life on her own terms, it becomes increasingly difficult to ignore the ache of wanting something more. Their connection with Emily doesn’t just shift the dynamic, it becomes the quiet catalyst for everything that follows.

    Summary

    Mulder had been steadfast in his support while Scully was fighting cancer, and it's undeniable their relationship shifted as a result of their shared experience. Having recently discovered her own infertility, being around all the happiness of her nephew's impending arrival a heaviness weighs on her more than she'd expected. So when she suspects that her dead sister has been calling her from beyond the grave to lead her to her daughter, Scully feels she has to step in, and step up. She feels a connection to that little girl and needs to make sure she's cared for, so when Emily is orphaned she knows she'll have to adopt Emily. Mulder of course is right there by her side, and together they explore adopting a three year old girl, finding out more about that girl's origins, and exactly what happened to Scully's stolen ova.

    Summary

    Inspired by @cecilysass's prompt: Melissa appears as a ghost to Mulder, which I know you hate because it breaks the ghost rules. But maybe you can think of a very pressing and “logical” reason. (Cancer arc? As part of the Amor Fati dream sequence we didn’t see? When he’s in PTSD season 8?)

    Took this in an Emily direction~.

    Summary

    I recently watched Christmas Carol and Emily and just wanted to explore what Dana Scully was thinking more internally and maybe dig into the conflicting feelings she'd have. As well as maybe giving some more thought and depth to her thoughts about Emily that the show didn't really get into.

    Scully's thoughts and perspective from her conversation with her mother at Bill's house, to sitting and talking with Mulder, to sitting with Mulder after Emily's death.

    Summary

    “Is that why you’ve been wearing black?” Scully asks, her blue, blue eyes falling open to find his face, lucid at last. “She wasn’t your child, Mulder.”
    It isn’t rejection on her tongue, simply a statement of scientific fact.
    This isn’t about him.
    Mulder looks down at his hands.
    He doesn’t care.
    “Yeah, she was,” he murmurs. “She is yours, so she is mine.”

    It's simple: He lets Scully set the terms and period of their mourning, and follows her in this as well

    Summary

    She has fallen in love with someone else. And Mulder knows for a fact that there is no one else in her life. They spend every day together. Almost every night. Now even the weekends, sometimes. They go out for lunch, they go to the movies, they just hang out. They spend so much time together, she doesn't even have time to see anyone else. She never talks about anyone in her life. The time she doesn't spend with him, she spends with her mother or her friend Ellen. But that's it. There is no one else in her life and he knows for a fact that she doesn't go on dates. She would tell him if she would – right? They're best friends. She'd tell him.

    Was "My Silver Lining" but I found "Trust" more fitting
