Thanks for dropping in! :DDDDD
The below might seem like I'm gassing you up or being overly sugary and sweet; but I cannot underestimate how much I mean every single word. Your fics were in my first round of xfiles fics ever; and they were cemented into my cracks before I ever got adventurous enough to feed the addiction and read 800+ authors.
This'll be long, so I included a cut.
(**Note**:Editing and proofreading my paragraphs? What is that?)
I begin, again, after 20 minutes of thorough combing
I spent 15-20 minutes grabbing link after link after link because... quite simply, your fics are grafted into my brain because of how many rereads I've done-- I can't separate them from each other, I can't pick favorites, I can't. I had to go by my tip top, cannot-pass-by-without-reading fics:
Whispered Words (Tumblr): Everything about this is perfection. Every time I read someone else's cancer fic, I immediately think of this one (and hunt it down for a reread.) Scully's symptoms, how and when Mulder notices; the blend of sickfic and angst and fluff together, no parts outrivaling the other... it's, again, perfection.
A New Day Has Come: It's such a cornerstone of my earliest cancer fics that this is how I always expect Mulder to react in other fics I read-- it's automatic programming at this point.
Every. Single. IVF fic you've written. I kid you not. To name a few (because it's not fun to just read "I liked it, lol" without some examples): Name Calling/Archive is the pinnacle post IVF failure: the best, ohmyword. Unnamed post IVF treatment fic and Five Minutes - Chapter 1 are seared into my brain as a part one and two; but if it's a sheer numbers game? Five Minutes - Chapter 2 wins out. It's just... how do you hold a moonbeam in your hand, y'know? How can I describe something that IS me? I refer you to Scully's Memento Mori speech-- she says it more eloquently than I do. ;))))
Every. Single. AU Requiem fic and S8 fic and S9 fic and S11 fam fic. You do loving relationships so well: they talk, they breathe, they exist like real people. I treasure the S8 fics you wrote from my prompts and reread them frequently--though I forgot to label the second and need to find that link hmmmmmm. This is exactly how it appears in my docs: Here's a prompt (if you want): Scully goes into... (tumblr.com) THIS WAS MY PROMPT Ao3 By Your Side Is Where I Belong - Baroness_Blixen - The X-Files [Archive of Our Own] LOVE THIS
And for nonspecific genre fics that I adore and cannot live without:
#58 Mulder to Scully thanks! Ao3 Prompts & Drabbles - Chapter 3 - [Archive of Our Own] Scully gets hit in the head with a baseball bat and you nailed every. single. aspect of this fic and I can't read it enough (going to read it again right after this.)
Since you were looking for an angsty prompt for... (tumblr.com) Ao3 We Will Find Our Way Home - [Archive] Scully and Mulder on the ice and Scully makes Mulder go alone to the Snocat? YES PLEASE.
I hope your muse comes back. I know she will soon!... Ao3 Things You Forget - Chapter 1 Mulder has amnesia and he and Scully have dinner with her mother and Bill while he remembers-- iconic.
A realization
...I'm staring at 20+ pages of your fic links (and 84 specifically marked ones that have LOVE THIS in bold and caps) and thinking that there is no way I can fit all of this into this ask. XDDDD
I'll close this by thinking of random moments in your fics that twirl around and around in my brain and put them down here:
Mulder waking Scully up by sneezing in her hair in Rain King.
Mulder and Scully crying after her recovery in Redux II.
Scully's annoyance and Mulder's complete stillness in the airport while waiting for their luggage in Five Minutes Chapter 2.
The hilarious way you wrote Mulder and Scully and Krycek and Doggett and Reyes in an Essence AU (Will is born in the car while they drive away from the FBI.)
Scully's head being squeezed like an orange in the baseball bat attack fic, and Mulder's irate panic from afar ("HE HIT HER")
Mulder's tie got stuck in a copier and Scully has to help him out (and Skinner doesn't even want to know.)
Maggie's not a fool when she catches Mulder and Scully a day or two after Chimera.
Scully gasses in the car and Mulder evens the playing field.
Mulder having amnesia after Millennium and only remembering his partnership with Diana (for a couple hours.)
Mulder delicately taking and holding and smiling over his scratchy list of baby names.
Scully feeling woozy in Three Words and Mulder helping her sit down.
Mulder panicking after Lamaze in Alone.
S8 Scully including Mulder in her late night snack and waltz session, as they discuss her neighbor's recently deceased husband.
Mulder swallowing the suddenly-too-sweet cake at Scully's baby shower (AU Essence~)
Mulder swapping places with Reyes in Essence-- it's he and Scully on the road, just like always.
Post Existence Mulder papa bear with little Will.
Revival baby girl being born on Mulder or Scully's birthdays (and the unique ways you changed the details of both versions.)
Mulder and baby Will showing up for Scully's "take your kid to work day" (and him rubbing Will in Colton's face, my word.)
(I'm not kidding when I mean every. single. one. of your IVF and S8 and family fics, so I'm not even going to BEGIN.)
All of your Millennium fics. All. But particularly the one where Scully is woken up by a grumpy Mulder who felt betrayed that she'd left and drove over, despite his injured arm, before calling her and asking for permission.
Mulder sobbing and holding Scully after the other agents tricked him into thinking she'd died in a car accident.
Diana locks Mulder and Scully up in the One Son fort for the night; and Scully's hurt and Mulder's hurt and their reconciliation and re-understanding is one of the fics I turn to when I need to sleep but also need a story to focus on. Makes my brain go wild.
TFWID Mulder having nightmares of his past lives with Scully. Another one of those stories that sets my brain on fire.
Revival Mulder's psychic powers comes back and he tells Scully in the restaurant (part I) and later senses their daughter's heartbeat (part II.)
An ending
And while I could go on and on and on, there's already a lot I put down. XDDDD Maybe I'll make a fic list with my top 85? fics that cannot be passed up-- although, I don't know if Tumblr will allow me that enough word space to fit them all in. Hmmmm.
Anyway, thanks for dropping in! :DDDDD And hope this was a good enough answer~. ;))))
