Heimerdinger's Song: Spin the Wheel

[baronessblixen]

I wish you would write a fic where mulder is concerned because william says mama but hasn’t said dada yet

This inspired me to write a little scene!

He knows he's bribing his son, but in his defense, he's desperate. William doesn't look at him and only at the small Snoopy spoon full of mashed potatoes. The peas that William was supposed to eat are still in the fridge. How will he get his son to finally say "dada" when he's feeding him the food he hates most in the world?

"Can you say it, Will?" Mulder brings the spoon to William's mouth. "Dada. Da-da."

Instead of parroting his father, William reaches for the spoon, no longer willing to wait. His lack of patience clearly an inherited trait. He stuffs the spoon and the mashed potatoes into his mouth, giving Mulder a gummy smile. Which he returns, shaking his head.

"One day you'll say it." He stares at Will, who has abandoned the spoon and is shoving the potatoes into his mouth, chewing loudly.

"Dada. Da-Da. Da-Da." Mulder knows how ridiculous he sounds. How crazy it is to feel left out when William calls Scully mama. "I love you, Will," he whispers, kissing his son's head before he wipes mash from the child's cheek.

It's not until two days later, when Mulder carries a freshly diapered William into the kitchen where Scully is preparing dinner, that his son does the unthinkable.

"Dada!"

"Did he just?" Scully says, grinning at Mulder, who's stunned himself.

"Can you say it again, Will?" But the boy doesn't. He kicks his legs, trying to get to Scully. Mulder hands him over and Will squeals in delight.

"Dadadadada." But the child is not referring to Mulder at all. He's trying to wriggle out of Scully's arms and throw himself into the mashed potatoes she's preparing.

"Oh no." The laughter bubbles up inside him. He's done it. He's taught his son how to say dad.

"Oh no, what?" Scully asks.

"I think," Mulder says, spooning up some mash to get William's attention.

"Dada!" Just like he's thought. He doesn't make William wait and feeds it to him.

"Mulder, is he-" Scully now asks, her eyebrows knit.

"Does he think mashed potatoes are called dada?" Mulder asks with a sheepish smile. "Yeah, he does."

But, Mulder decides as he explains it to Scully, eliciting one eye roll and several chuckles, at least he's heard his son say it now. Everything else will fall into place.

When Ava started rapping and Janine and Gregory looked at each other and started dancing, that healed something in me.

i’m gonna cry it’s raining right now and i just passed by a family where both parents were without an umbrella but their kid who couldn’t have been older than like 3-4 was proudly holding this GIANT umbrella whose diameter was as tall (if not taller) as the kid. both the parents were getting absolutely drenched but u could tell the kid was just so happy to have an “adult” task and carry the umbrella themselves and i think that sacrifice is what love is all about
