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
“What is it?” she said “What’s wrong?”
“Go and get changed,” he said softly “There’s been an accident. Your Mom has been taken to Georgetown Memorial. I’ve just spoken to Bill, he’s on his way.”
“Oh my god!” she stood knocking her coffee over in her haste “Shit,” she grabbed a wad of paper towels and started trying to clean up “What happened?”
He stilled her hands, placing both of his over hers “Look at me please” he said gently, his tone reassuring. She didn’t want to, she knew one look at him and she’d crumble but she did it anyway. His eyes were soft and reassuring brimming with concern.

Summary
A canon-compliant, internally consistent episode-by-episode exploration of Mulder and Scully’s interiority, usually accompanied by a little vignette, before or after. (Digging into the on-screen *and* the off-screen, one ep at a time.)
I've tagged it Explicit for future-purposes; explicity comes to those who wait, or something.
Currently updating every four days.
Though I’m writing these because I feel compelled to do so, I hope that you enjoy them! That would be lagniappe.

Summary
Kokoro means heart in Japanese.
Canon-compliant fluff where Mulder and Scully slowly fall in love, one slice of pie at a time, starting from 1993. No pain, unless it’s from Chris Carter & company.
Jump down the rabbit hole with me again will you? Here, I'll hold your hand.

Summary
"Do you ever think about having kids?" It rushes out of her, softer and more tremulous than she intends for it to sound. She watches as Mulder swallows, his Adam's apple bobbing like one of her father's ships in the Pacific.

Try as she might, Scully can't leave Kevin Kryder behind.

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.

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.
