Collector's Fic: Mulder, Scully, and Courthouse Weddings

Mulder and Scully and weddings-- do they or don't they? In this case they do and they don't.

Tagging @pookie-mulder, who inspired this idea!

Loose chronological order below~

@ghostbustermelanieking/skuls’s

in another world - Chapter 22

it happens in vegas, of course, and it happens because of langly and melissa.... it’s directly following mulder’s breakup with diana, and he’s been moping around the hotel room the entire time; dana is in the midst of stressing over a big test for medical school, and has refused to leave the hotel room so that she can study to the point of driving melissa crazy. 

AU-- Pre-S1 Mulder and Scully meet and marry in Las Vegas.

I wish you would write a fic where Mulder and Scully are married and domestic af. AU, obviously.

...Mulder and Scully are married on August 16, at a courthouse in Virginia. The date has no significance, no probable reason to get married then—and that, Mulder says, is why it's perfect.

AU S7 Scully is appalled at her and Mulder's shamelessly gooey "married" behavior.

#32: It looks good on you.

He says, “Wanna get married today?”

She lifts her head to look at him, her eyes wide with surprise and maybe an ounce of caution. She says, “You're kidding.”

“Dead serious, Scully.”

AU S7 Mulder and Scully get hitched on a spur-of-the-moment October day.

Five Moments Mulder and Scully Shared (And One They Didn't) (Tumblr)

The new weight is unfamiliar on her hand, but not in a bad way. She grabs his hand and presses a kiss half against his finger and half against his own ring as they huddle together on the steps of the courthouse. 

AU Post S11 Mulder and Scully get a second chance at their entire lives; and determine to make better choices with each other.

@silhouetteofacedar/SilhouetteOfACedar's Pearl, Ch. 1 (Ao3)

Scully shakes her head. “Sorry, no. I’m just nervous.”

“We can keep holding hands, if you want,” he says quietly. “Play the part of a happy couple for a few minutes.”

She glances at him to see if he’s joking. He’s not; his face is strangely serious.

He should be joking, she thinks.

AU-- Mulder and Scully wed after her cancer diagnosis.

@mchalowitz's (Ao3) chain reaction, part 5

Mulder doesn’t bring up the proposal for three days. He figures he should mention it before the weekend because after two days apart, the seriousness of it will wear off. It’ll just be an awkward occurrence, not a real offer. 

“Should we get you a ring?” 

Scully coughs out a laugh and glances at him briefly from the filing cabinet.

AU-- Between Scully's cancer and Teena Mulder's drama, Mulder and his partner are able to find a brief, bright spot: their marriage.

@leiascully's (Ao3) Mulder told Scully he would do whatever he could

They get married.  It’s a quickie courthouse wedding with Maggie and Tara as their witnesses.  Bill refuses to be any part of it.  

AU-- Mulder and Scully get married and leave the FBI to adopt and raise Emily.

@myownsuperintendent/MyOwnSuperintendent’s

All a Family

They get married at the courthouse. They bring her mom.... But she smiles during the ceremony, at least, and Scully does too, a little shyly, and Mulder knows he does, in a way he can’t contain.

AU-- Mulder tells Scully about her ova after her remission; and the two have successfully begun an IVF pregnancy and started the adoption process for Emily when they decide to wed for better chances.

Ficlet: “Marry Me” (Ao3)

She stops where she is.  “Are you serious?”

He pauses a moment to consider, and then he says, “I’m serious.” 

...She’s next to the bed now.  “Yes, then.”

AU-- Post Requiem Mulder asks Scully to marry him.

Readjustment

She feels a little bit guilty that she can’t give her mom what she wants, when there’s so much she’s missed out on. Maybe she would have wanted it herself once, but not anymore, now. “We just…we don’t want to wait, Mom,” she says, and maybe that’s silly, since they’ve already waited quite a while. Since they already have a child together, a life, love. But that is how they feel.

AU-- Mulder, Scully, and William are readjusting to life as free citizens no longer on the run... well, Mulder and Scully are, anyway.

@scully-loves-ruthie's Better Call Scully

“Mulder, look at me.  He faces downward eyes locked on hers.  “Do you really believe that you’ll never stake someone thinking they’re a vampire only to find out too late you were wrong... again?”

He stares at her weighing his response before offering a playful smile as he pulls her toward the courthouse

“That’s what I thought.”  She mutters quickening her pace to remain in step with him.

AU-- Post Bad Blood Mulder and Scully get married for "practical" reasons (of course.)

@cauldronoflove/thegoodthebadandthenerdy's All I Need's a Fraction of Your Happy Heart

(Mulder had meant his proposal, sure, but in the end it was Scully who proposed. Neatly and to the point, but so full of an unrestrained want and sincerity that Mulder had covered her hand across the crayon-scribbled tabletop without even checking left or right.)

AU-- S7 Scully reflects on the journey from her recent marriage to Mulder while she and her partner are on a case.

AU/Married/ISTJ reflects how banter had turned to serious convo/duo both proposed/courthouse/giddy together on case-- All I Need's a Fraction of Your Happy Heart - [Archive]

@msrafterdark's (Ao3) MSR // Ficmas Day 30 - Fireworks

Their belongings are all in storage save for a few toiletries and some clothes for their honeymoon next week. They're signing for a house next month. A simple but beautifully elegant wedding dress hangs on the back of the door of Scully's childhood bedroom. A bundle of wedding presents from relatives and friends--including a rather suspiciously-wrapped gift with the initials "TLG" scrawled on it--sit on Maggie's kitchen table. Even AD Skinner is stopping by for the courthouse appointment tomorrow.

AU-- S7 Mulder and Scully enjoy the night before their wedding together.

beduini/Beduini's Legitimate

The baby moves again and he smiles, a wide, cheek-splitting smile. After a few more minutes, he raises up on his forearm once more and looks down at her with eyes shining, as if he'd just solved a case. "Hey Scully, we got married today."

Her lips turn up in a slight, amused smile. "Yes, Mulder, we did."

AU-- Post Vienen Mulder and Scully hit up the courthouse.

Vickie Moseley’s (Ao3, Gossamer)

Mother of the Bride

"Dana," I whispered, holding my breath and hoping my suspicions about this 'appointment' were correct. "Can you tell me what this is all about?"

Suddenly, Fox was on the phone. "Call it an early birthday present, Mrs. Scully. And maybe a late Mother's Day Present, as well."

Post Existence Mulder and Scully wed at the courthouse.

@aloysiavirgata’s (Ao3, WBM, Gossamer, LJ, Alt. LJ) A Tent of Shelter (Ao3)

She smiles at him, her lopsided grin. “Mulder, what can change, really? The taxes. The health insurance. But I think we’ve reached some point of terminal commitment, don’t you think? And you can hardly imagine I’ll be Doctor Mulder. So do I like the idea? I do, very much. But it’s hardly shocking.”

“Scully my love, you need to read more romance novels.”

Post IWTB Mulder wants to get married for his birthday.

@agentscully/agent_scully2084's Important Traditions

With minimal protest, Scully allowed Mulder to carry her over the threshold, laughing as Mulder explained the symbolism of the ancient tradition and appeared to take seriously his duty to protect his new bride from evil spirits.

Post IWTB Mulder and Scully get married in khakis and blue.

@scully/humancredentials's "Did you just call me 'baby' in front of my mother?"

She looks like she’s about to say that yes, something is wrong and that he shouldn’t antagonize her brother that way and even though they’re living together now, even though they’re ink on the paper official, sworn to each other in a courthouse in rural Virginia in front of her mother, her God, and all of their ghosts, it still makes her anxious when it’s on display.

But she doesn’t, doesn’t say any of those things, realizes she doesn’t even really want to.

Post IWTB Mulder is prone to slipping up with pet names after he and Scully tied the knot.

amorfati3215/Amorfati32’s (FFN) AU head canon - Mulder and Scully never separated...

Mulder and Scully marry two months later in a small service at the county courthouse. Scully’s mother gives the bride away while Skinner agrees to be Mulder’s best man. It’s a quiet affair, formal too but it’s exactly what they wanted. 

AU-- Post IWTB Mulder and Scully vacay, wed, and stay together during the hard times.

@broadcastnews1987/audries/@kennedyandheidi/inkspl0tchess's (WBM 1/ 2/ 3) Unnamed

“you’re my wife,” he says, over and over. her fingers are tugging at the tie she’d made him wear to the courthouse. he hadn’t really minded. “you’re my wife, scully.”

Post IWTB-- Three moments are Mulder and Scully tied the knot.

@m0lderitsme's Just a post MSIV fluff piece.

A big wedding was most definitely not for either of them. Plus, they didn’t really have anyone to invited anymore. Sure, Scully could have asked her brother Bill and his wife and son, but she didn’t really want them there. They decided that they’d get married in a very, very quick ceremony with a Justice of the Peace.

Post Revival Mulder and Scully marry with Skinner as their witness.

@flukemen/@pinebluffvariants/pinebluffvariant's Barrows

On a Friday afternoon, Mulder and Scully get out of a cab just a few blocks from the basement where they used to eat hotdogs at midnight and argue over evidence, when they were young. The streets are cleaner than they used to be, back then. The air is too. At least it feels that way today.

Post Revival Mulder and Scully wait in line outside the courthouse... and watch Skinner skip right on through.

@kateyes224's (Ao3)

Unchained Melody

Scully wiggled her small toes on the hard-wood floor, glad to be barefoot.  Her pale ecru dress shimmered in the darkened kitchen, her face half shadowed. She looked up at Mulder, and something in the way she was sitting, staring up at him, her cerulean eyes luminous in the dark, niggled at his brain like deja vu.

After the courthouse ceremony, Mulder remembers one moment when his parents looked really, truly happy with each other.

[slaygentford]

thoughts on the trailer for The Many Saints of Newark ?

dr @kennedyandheidi said it precisely if you want to scroll her blog but I will restate it in a very reductive way which is they gotta market it as a legends are made movie bc it''s shorthand for watch our movie! but Tony soprano is not a legend and he was not made and David Chase knows this because he's a fucking freak about this show and tony and has total creative control so I'm not worried. I WAS worried about the casting a little and specifically if it would sound like they were doing Voices because I hate when actors do Voices (and the original did slightly exaggerated voices but the whole cast was from the tristate, so it wasn't that big a leap, not like LA people doing Voices wouldve been iykwim) but the good news is Vera Farmiga Livia Soprano as dr @paty-ofarrell said did make me shit my pants. I can overlook the nose prosthetic cuz she has the voice. and the effect of gandolfinis Tony voice followed by Michael doing it was like. CHILLS. anyway I think the sopranos is very much in a way about voices and not overdoing them.

my one concern at this point is two concerns which are related. one. the sopranos is what it is because it's the final evolution of the mob genre, it's a critique and in many ways, a parody. that works because of its space in TIME -- y2k, when mafia movies were hackneyed, and when THE REAL LIFE mafia was dying. as you know so much of the sopranos is about what it's like "in the movies." if the sopranos took place in the 60s, IT WOULDN'T BE THE SAME GENRE "PARODY". it is CRUCIAL that it takes place AFTER the midcentury height of organized crime, at the start of a new millennia. the sopranos, esp 6b, is about the apocalypse. it's about the end times coming to this specific group of people and their way of life. and that can only happen when the mob is on the decline irl.

so what happens when you go BACK in time to when you CAN'T take that angle because organized crime is legit flourishing??? how do you critique the genre when you are EMBEDDED in the peak of the genre, not its decline? this is a long way of saying WHAT IF DICKIE MOLTISANTI IS TOO COOL??? Dickie Moltisanti has to fucking SUCK, that's the whole point!!! and the trailer made him look cool which is the only actual moment where I was like one (1) fear. but again I trust David, who is, as I said, a freak, and was born knowing the secrets of the void. and again, as I said, they gotta make it look cool to make people go watch it to get money. I do think more than Michael this movie is actually going to hinge on the titular Saint and what's made of him. and I do think its gonna be absolutely stomach churning. I saw baby chrissy and my third eye was opened.

X-Files Collector's Edition: Pranks and Other April Fics

April's Fools rarely make an appearance in fic; but there are excellent prank fics and fics where April-- the month-- makes an appearance.

Loose chronological order below~

Sneaker's (Alt. Gossamer) The Skeptic of Bracken Lake

""Dana shone her flashlight around the lower ground. Determined to prove or disprove the ghost theory, she continued talking. "How can you be so sure it's too light, if you ca-- "

"Just trust me. It's too light."

Dana stood up suddenly, grasping Nancy's arm. "C'mon, lets go down there and find out.."

"Are you *nuts*?" asked Nancy

"You yourself said he wouldn't come out . . . so he won't. I just want to see what it's like down there . . . I mean, if he's gonna spend an eternity down there, he's got to have left some mark of his presence. Bad vibes or something.""

Pre-S1 Scully is a sensible little skeptic, avoiding fights and calmly taking on dares-- be they ghosts or nettles-- while cheekily waiting for an opportunity to prank the opposition back.

aka Jake/aka 'Jake'/aka_Jake's How Do You Know Whaen a Flukewoman is Having Her Period?

""Rather than count mile markers, she reached for the bag of fur trade souvenirs he'd bought at the museum gift shop: a copy of "The Mountain Man Sketchbook" and a reproduction beavertail knife. She withdrew the book and, tilting it toward the dash lights, paged through it without interest.

He kept his eyes on the road. "Some parascientists believe that menstruation, menopause and sexual frustration intensify subconscious psychokinetic energy."

Under ordinary circumstances, she found Mulder's interest in the unusual a positive trait; it served them well in their work and at times could be endearing. But did they have to go through this every... month? She closed the book and tried to rein in her annoyance. "Ah, but which came first, the poltergeist or PMS?""

Mulder recycles (hah) the same period jokes and theories when it's Scully time of the month. She ends up amused in spite herself.

@lotsoforangesoutside/@lotzzoforangezoutside‘s (Ao3)

What to Do with April Showers

""She looks apologetically at him, soft and indulgent. Mulder wonders if she’s learned that look from her mother. He swears that’s how Mrs. Scully looked at him last Autumn.

“Fine, we’ll take an hour off.” He says in his senior-agent-knows-best voice as he stands up to grab his coat, ready to head out and play hooky.

“I don’t plan to go out in the rain.” She pauses, but her eyes are twinkling, “and I don’t want to spend an hour of your driving us nowhere in the pouring rain. April showers, Mulder.""

Post Calusari Mulder ruminates on Scully's near deaths, leading them to an impromptu basement dance sesh.

The King of the Castle and the Dirty Rascal

""The door of their office is opened slightly, but the lights are off. A spaceship-shaped lamp on Mulder’s desk is emitting an eerie green light. Pushing the door wide opened, she turns the light on. “Mulder?” she calls.

No respond.

“Mulder?” She repeats again, concern written all over her face. “Are you alright?”

Scully sees him sitting in his chair, his mouth moving. She wonders if her mind is playing a trick on her, but it looks like he’s mouthing the words help me, over and over again.

The hair on the back of her neck stands and she rushes over to her partner immediately. She recalls her recently weekend getaway where people walked out of a supermarket with bloody eyes, a talking doll that wants to play melting in the microwave, and an angry little girl who just wants to have her way.""

Post Chinga Mulder pranks Scully by faking a severe injury. She repays his April Fool's joke with an excellently executed (but almost regrettable) nosebleed prank.

3X -5

""Scully: Wait, what?

Mulder: Yes, and I'm going.

Scully: You are? What you gonna bring?

Mulder: I'm told to bring a dish called Dana Scully.

Mulder likes reusing his same "Dana Scully" joke.""

@baronessblixen’s (Ao3)

Cruel Jokes

""Accident," he sobs. "Car. Car accident."

"What?" she asks, not understanding a word of what he's saying, of where his mind is. "Were you in an accident?" When he cries harder, her own concern increases. What if he's hurt? Or if he's hurt someone else?

"You. Car accident. They said." It's as if she's talking to a child.

"I'm fine, Mulder. There was no accident. Who said that?" He doesn't answer, continues to hold her, but relaxes. She slips down his front, her feet finding ground.""

Mulder is the victim of a cruel prank-- that Scully had died in a car accident-- leaving Scully incensed and ready for war.

Unnamed (Ao3)

""There have been accidents. Only two months ago a young couple stepped on rotten wood and fell down three stories. Both of them are dead.”

“It’s an old place.”

“When the police came to inspect the scene, they examined the wood. It wasn’t rotten. It was the ghost, Scully.” He whispers the last part into her ear.

“Mulder, do I have to explain to you once again about ghosts?” It wouldn’t be the first time.""

Mulder and Scully are enjoying their dating life by pranking each other with ghosts, wet willies, and glittery revenge. Skinner is not amused.  

Bloody Hll (Ao3)

""I'm truly sorry, Scully." His face is vulnerable and full of regret. Tears pool in his eyes and she watches them fall as she sobs silently. She catches one of his tears and as she wipes it away, she leaves a red stripe across his face. "I didn't mean to make you cry. I thought it was funny. You don't mind fake blood at Halloween."

For a man as smart as he is, Mulder can be incredibly dense.

"I don't mind the fake blood," she says, smearing more of it all over his face, finding herself unable to keep herself from smiling any longer, "I mind the possibility of you being dead. You will pay for this." Her words lose steam when she accentuates them with yet another sob.""

Post Revival Scully finds Mulder covered in blood on the floor of their basement. After pulling his tie and sobbing all over him, Mulder pops up-- unharmed. He has to calm down Scully, who plans for revenge.

@starbuck09256​‘s (Ao3) Just a Nic (Alt. Just a Shave)

""She sighs as he continues carefully with each stroke checking and making sure he hasn’t blemished her porcelain skin. He grabs a towel and dampens it to rinse off the remaining cream on her first leg. Smiles as he moves her leg to each side checking his work. She shakes her head. He starts on her other leg and his smart look of satisfaction gives her an idea. It’s mean, but at the same time fair. She hisses and he looks at her in horror. His clear panic face with his eyes and mouth open as his fingers brush along her calf. She grins that wild grin that he loves with its mischievous hint of dark blue eyes. 

“I had you.” she whispers, her eyes twinkle towards him and he chuckles.""

Post Tithonus Mulder helps Scully shave her legs. She decides to get his goat by momentarily faking a yelp. It leads to a sweet moment.

Girlie_girl7’s Halloween Eve  

""Don't you think she looks like Eve 6?"

Scully whipped her head around to look at the woman who was currently scanning a case of Yoo-hoo. "No, I don't think she does," Scully whispered while she placed the last of her groceries on the belt and began to dig out her coupons.

"Scully! She looks exactly like her." Scully laughed, "She does not."

"Scully look again, she's even chewing her gum in the same manor as Eve did, when she showed us how she bit that poor guards eye ball."

Scully stared at her partner, "Mulder, are you sure the spirit of the holiday isn't getting to you?""

Mulder suspects their checkout clerk is an Eve. He leaves Scully in the car to double back and subtly interrogate her; but the only thing strange about this woman is that she's related to Skinner.

@foreheading's Her Laugh

""Not laughing at his jokes had clearly been a means of keeping him at arms length. But once they became physically intimate, he saw a side of her he’d only caught glimpses of before. She relaxed…completely. So completely. And she would give him these hearty belly laughs that he’d never heard before then.""

Mulder recalls trying and failing to make his mother laugh; and is moved that much more whenever his girlfriend, the enigmatic Scully, lets loose and laughs heartily.

stellar_dust’s (Ao3) Cause and Effect (Ao3)

""She tilted her head to the side and raised an eyebrow. "Now, Mulder, this whole case has been one long misdirection, right? I make you look over *here*" - she snapped the fingers of her right hand beside his face - "which makes you completely ignore what's going on over *there*" - she handed him his badge with her left hand - "Am I right, Mulder?"

His jaw dropped.

"So it seems to me, Mulder, that misdirection, at heart, is all about" - she produced a brand-new bag of sunflower seeds from his jacket pocket and handed it to him - "cause" - she pulled his tie out from behind her back and looped it around his neck - "and" - she held up the car keys that, to the best of Mulder's knowledge, hadn't left his possession since he'd signed the rental agreement - "effect, Mulder." Scully tossed the keys up and caught them again. "Let's go. I'm driving to the airport.""

S7 Mulder ponders on pranks and magic tricks after the events of The Goldberg Variation. Scully listens to his evolving thoughts while keeping one step ahead of him by performing magic, stealing one of the vests in First Person Shooter, needing his help to dismantle the Theef poppet, and reaching a full conclusion by All Things.

@broadcastnews1987/audries/@kennedyandheidi/inkspl0tchess's (WBM 1/2/3)

housekeeping - in spring

""Mid-April. He drives one last stolen car with a hand out the window, and as he moves into Virginia the air stops smelling like the Bay’s primordial preserves.

It takes him three miles past the state lines to realize the new smell is dirt and rain. The dead come alive. In spring, things rise again. Glory, glory, hallelujah.""

Post Revival Jackson finally wanders back from the road, awkwardly readjusting with his family, including Mulder who wasn't told that his son was still alive.

@leiascully's (Ao3) Bless This House

""They turned the spare room into a nursery together, everything in shades of green and yellow. The baby would be born in the spring. Scully wanted something cheerful. Mulder spent hours shopping online as she worked at the hospital, comparing different gliders and bottles and swaddles. He combed through the children's section at the bookstore for the best baby books, and read as extensively on infants as he'd ever studied cryptids.

She was tired and nauseated and uncomfortable, but she was so happy. They were so happy together. It was everything she'd always wanted.""

AU-- IWTB Mulder and Scully christen their new house, which eventually leads them to the birth of their very own "April Fool."  

Christine Leigh's (Alt. Ao3, LiveJournal) The Color of April

""What's going on?"

"I just missed you, and for some reason even more today."

"Well, then bless Tom's stomach and the weather forecast." He turned and led her back outside. They had a clear view of the evening star in the western sky, and for a few seconds they were just Mulder and Scully, having a moment together standing on their front porch. Friends, lovers, parents, those things were all part of their package, but for now they were just them, as they always had been. The sky had turned a brilliant violet and Mulder looked at Scully watching it. She seemed mesmerized.""

AU-- Happy family Scully is alone for a few days while her boys go camping. Rather than enjoying the solitude, she finds herself teary and alone.

Honorable mention to @cock-holliday/biggyyeehaw’s Thirty Five Hundred Miles And A Lifetime To Go - Chapter 2 (Post One Breath Mulder trying to pick up Scully's mood, since she can't be with her family for Christmas. A game of prank gifts begins.)
