hii idk why but the thought of fresh-faced professional scully being so scared she burst into her new extremely flirty but otherwise dismissive partner's motel room in nothing but a bathrobe and undergarments asking him to check her for strange markings before collapsing into him when he laughed at her and said they're just mosquito bites. do you think it killed her? just a bit? just enough that he was It that she realized she could never ever do this again with anyone else and now that she'd done this with him that was it? and lord help her if she ever did it again with him, nevermind anyone else. mortifying introduction. what a way to start out her new career with the fbi

anyways. just thinking about how scully wishes to be perceived and who she really is

#hello ferdie. you might recognize this #btw not that scully can't be vulnerable #she's had boyfriends before and she has friends and she's close with her family #but since then I have not seen this girl act like that unless it's with her mother #or under EXTREME duress #(mind you I only just started s4. literally on episode one as of today so)#her giggles and smiles and just general excitement in the pilot make me want to bawl my eyes out #like she went !! oh shit I do not want to be showing so much of myself off like this !! tone it down !!#and then she does NOT act that carefree again. at least not to that level #feel free to tell me if I'm wrong mind you but I stand by this characterization for now #does this make sense to anybody? I just have so many feelings over scully idk if any of it comes out coherently #she's just a girl living in a boy's world :/#dana scully #x-files #the x files #txf
