Summary
In this canon-divergent reimagining of Season 8, Mulder’s return marks the beginning of a painful and complex reckoning.
The world he knew has changed—his work has moved on without him, and Scully, now seven months pregnant, stands before him both familiar and achingly distant. Haunted by PTSD and unable to process the trauma of his abduction, Mulder retreats inward, struggling to find his place in a life that no longer feels like his own.
For Scully, his return is a miracle shadowed by heartbreak. She is overjoyed he's alive, but his emotional distance deepens the loneliness she endured during his disappearance. As both grapple with grief, change, and unspoken fears, they must learn to navigate this new chapter together—where patience, healing, and love will be their only way back to each other.
Note: This reimagining of Season 8, offers an alternative path in which Mulder’s emotional distance is explored with greater nuance—granting him the space to confront his trauma and better understand the weight of his experiences. At the same time, it allows Scully to articulate her own heartache and find validation in the profound grief she endured during his abduction, presumed death, and eventual return.

Summary
From the moment Dana Scully walks into Agent Mulder's office, the two are drawn to one another. No matter how much they fight it, the magnetic force pulls them back toward one another.
Basically an excuse for me to write a slow burn with a ton of steamy smut and angst.

Summary
What happens to a woman when her actions conflict with everything she holds dear? And what can she turn to to cope, when she can't turn to anyone else?
---There is a companion piece to this story: Amiga, Amante. When I say I went a little overboard on the angst, for MSR and others, Amiga, Amante is a big part of that, and the two stories will merge at the same point.

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.
