#moose mount

[omusasteelhorn]

My own idea for what a Highmountain Tauren paladin's mount would look like in game. I took a lot of inspiration from the current Sunwalker Kodos, as well as the current moose mounts in game.

I thought about using reds and greens, but was afraid it would look almost like a Christmas mount, given the animal being used for a mount. I had a lot of fun with the Night Elf saber and wanted to take a stab at others. I will probably look at orcs and their wolves next.

The moose returns for the same reason cats do

This guy raised an abandoned moose calf with his Horses, and believe it or not, he has trained it for lumber removal and other hauling tasks. Given the 2,000 pounds of robust muscle, and the splayed, grippy hooves, he claims it is the best work animal he has. He says the secret to keeping the moose around is a sweet salt lick, although, during the rut he disappears for a couple of weeks, but always comes home…. Impressive !! MINNESOTA CLYDESDALE

i’m deeply touched to have had this moment with them

[graveyardharmony]

Check it out! My coworker gave me a moose head AND the entire hide! I'm hoping that it is cold enough that the hair doesn't slip once i have time to work on it this weekend. It's getting pretty cold here, so fingers crossed it all works out for me. I'm going to give brain tanning a go & I'll be making a nice euro mount with the skull as well.

It's a good thing my tiny car has a big trunk :3

What do you think about my pic?  

[meeeeeeese]

Ahhhh, what a relaxing vacation in sparkfly fen, sure hope nothing comes out of the water to attack me today!

... I'm having far too much fun with this silly new chair

[doragonlw]

Had an idea, had to sketch it

Like come on, have you seen how big moose are?!

He asks us to showcase whatever style of photography is our go-to, our favorite, our road most traveled. Fall colors on the Denali Highway I don’t think I can define a particular style as my…

Foray into Canada

        It felt a little strange being on the road again after being stationary for several months this past winter. Our campground was the perfect place to recuperate from foot surgery, as well as giving me time to work on my 3rd book. Several people mentioned it would be a perfect opportunity to write while recuperating, but I knew from past experience being on pain killers wasn’t necessarily conducive for focused thinking. Although, I did handwrite a lot of notes during that time that were quite humorous, with tidbits I have ended up using. John was able to skydive once I was able to get around on my own, but once it was time to leave, we were ready.         Although we’d been to Sedona previously, we felt it was worth another visit and spent a few days there. The Verde Valley area really is stunning and the weather was pleasant and not too hot yet. We explored all of the rock formations and enjoyed wandering around in the desert. Walking along the trails in a greener than usual desert was a treat. We also visited Montezuma Castle, located in Camp Verde which was built and used by the indigenous Sinagua people from around AD 1100 and 1425. The well-preserved cave dwellings are quite an engineering feat. The Jerome State Historic park that has the old copper mining town up on the hill took us back to the early 1900s, and has shops with a view down into the valley.         Crossing into Utah, we stayed in a unique campground in Kanab, called Dark Sky. It’s situated in the middle of the desert, away from any main roads. The lack of ambient light in the evening makes it a wonderful spot for star gazing - hence the name. We were able to identify several planets, and the abundance of stars made the sky feel so full and deep. The perspective changed the longer we watched, and I saw two shooting stars that appeared close enough to touch. They had a bath house with two in suite bathrooms that had indoor/outdoor showers, so you could have a private shower outdoors under the sun or stars. They also had homemade pizza on the premises, only one day a week, and we happened to be there that day. Of course we indulged, making it even more memorable. From there we went to Beaver, and then to Salt Lake City, where John got to do a few jumps. Tremonton was next, and when we got to the campground the sky turned quite black, with swirls of gray. We quickly set up and made it inside before it started hailing. The hail pelting the trailer roof was so loud we couldn’t hear each other speak. I was concerned it would leave dents by the sound of it, but it passed relatively quickly. It eventually cleared up but the dark clouds and wind lingered until the next day.         We zipped through Idaho into Montana, reveling in the sights of so much greenery in comparison to the deserts of Arizona. We soaked in the spring-like weather, blue skies, and mountainous terrain, enjoying every minute of it. We stopped in Helena to stock up and look around before heading to Shelby. Once in Shelby we checked to make sure everything was in order with our trailer, since we knew there would be a search at the border. By this point we had eaten any food we thought might be an issue, like fresh fruits and vegetables, and everything else was stored or put away, but with easy access. When we arrived at the Del Bonita border crossing, we were the only ones there. There was another crossing we were told was often busy with a wait, so John purposely chose this one instead. It was a bit more out of way on a much less traveled road, but it was worth it. We were greeted immediately and the guards were competent, experienced and amicable, with a nice balance of professionalism. After doing his inspection inside the truck and trailer, we had an informative conversation about the area and different spots we planned on stopping. They made us feel welcome and sent us on our way.         First stop in Canada was Lethbridge, then our campground in Granum. The weather continued to be excellent and there was a small lake in the campground where we took walks around in the evening. We were close to the town of Fort Macleod and spent the day there exploring the museum that portrays the history of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police created in 1873. The fort itself served as divisional headquarters until the 1920s. Being American, yet also being a big fan of the cartoon character “Dudley Do-Right of the Mounties”, it was quite interesting to learn more about this police force established to bring order to the Canadian West. We enjoy stopping at museums throughout our travels and learning about world history.         Then off to Banff. We both were pleasantly surprised at how nice the weather had been, and Banff was even more so. John picked the perfect time to be there in his planning, and once again, going during shoulder season was the way to go. We knew it would be wise to make reservations in advance and how quickly things filled up, so we were prepared. John had spent hours on the phone securing our campground in Banff and it was worth it. Our site was easy walking distance to where we could get the bus into town, but far enough out to enjoy the surrounding wooded area. The steep snow covered mountains are stunning, and the natural beauty everywhere you looked really gave us a joyful feeling. We hiked along the path to the falls (more like a cascade), and explored the small town in truly perfect weather. Once in town there were other buses that took you to various sights, and we took one for the hour ride to the well known Lake Louise. This was a bit more touristy with more people, but not annoyingly so. The lake was still frozen in spots that obscured some of the turquoise color, but still an impressive sight. We followed the path around the lake through the less traveled area until my feet decided it was time to head back.         The weather continued to bless us with it’s perfection, and we next went to the Banff Gondola and took the ride up to the summit of Sulphur Mountain. Views on the way up are quite spectacular, but once on top there are viewing areas so you can take in the views from a variety of angles. There are sitting areas where you can bask in the sun, some with heat lamps when needed, due to the cooler elevation. Once again there were plenty of people but not crowded and we hung around up top for a while. There’s a trail that takes you to another summit, and John climbed a massive amount of steps up, while I relaxed with a coffee. Out of the seven days we were in Banff, five of them were some of the best weather days ever. The last two days became quite overcast with smoke from the Alberta forest fires, but there was still some decent visibility.         We had already booked the Glacier Adventure to the Columbia Ice Fields for the day we left Banff, and decided to still give it a go, even though the smoke was affecting that area as well. The Ice Fields are where five glaciers feed three oceans (Atlantic, Pacific, Arctic). These are the largest non-polar ice fields in the world. We traveled on a massive ice explorer to get to the glacier, and then had a half hour to walk on the Athabasca glacier, and take it all in. To say it felt surreal and exotic at the same time is an understatement. Breathtaking and exhilarating - yes, that too. From there we traveled back on the ice explorer, then got on a bus to the glass-floored glacier skywalk close by. The skywalk is 918 feet above the river, built on the edge of a cliff. A portion of it has a glass floor where you can see down to the river, while trying not to get vertigo. After some coaxing I did make it onto the glass portion and followed it around to the other end, with wobbly legs. There were also other amazing view points from up there with stunning views.         The smoke did obscure some of the views, but we were still glad we went. It is such an amazing part of the world and I’m thrilled I got to experience it. The following morning we woke to a much clearer sky and moved on to Hinton, past Jasper, for our next stop. The smoke came and went and we’re now at a one night stand in Grande Cache. Then we’ll move on to Grand Prairie where we’ll spend a few days to see what we can see, and hope the smoke will be clearing out.         Our adventure so far has met our expectations, and even exceeded in some areas. The people we’ve encountered and interacted with have been great, making things even more enjoyable. Now that we’re out of the more touristy areas, we expect our journey to be through more remote areas, with even more natural beauty and animal life. We’ve seen deer, elk, a female moose, a bear (tagged), big horned sheep, a white mountain goat, and various small critters. As we head further up to the Yukon we look forward to seeing more. Stay tuned to join us on our adventurous journey as we make our way through this beautiful country enroute to Alaska.         For all the photos see John and Charlotte’s flickr sites.

Ghoul Hair Headcanons

This wouldn't leave my brain until I put it out into the world

Dewdrop/Sodo

Pin straight corn blonde that goes to his mid back

Very thin

Dry and damaged from his fire transition (Cumulus bullies him into letting her put oils and serums in it to help. He won't admit that he likes it)

[randomfoggytiger]

can you recommend any good case file fic with established msr relationship???? your archive is a gift to this fandom btw THANK YOU

Mulder, Scully, and Case File RST

Eyyyyyy, here you go, anon!

@debbierhea/theexfilesbabe/iamalittleonedge’s october - full series

He’s shivering as she approaches, the blanket curled around his snoozing fox form, hair sticking out like a tail. She pushes his hair back and whispers his name, tells him to go get in her bed where it’s warm. She watches him, sleepy-eyed and vulnerable, as he makes his way to where her bed is an oasis of warmed goose feathers.

Post S5 Mulder and Scully spend an October, week-by-week, on the road and in each other's company. (While not strictly RST, it's a gentle, autumnal slow burn that, I think, counts.)

sarah_segretti/Sarah Segretti's The Current Temperature in Downtown Washington (Ao3, Xanadu)

The informant, a slightly paunchy middle-aged man with a rich Blue Ridge accent, a true local, droned on. Scully appeared to be listening raptly, but Mulder knew the look - he'd been on the receiving end more than once, and with him, it usually meant she was about to shred another one of his theories.

He knew what was wrong. They were too close to FEMA headquarters, and that made him think of Dallas, and Antarctica - and he hadn't expected to feel this way. His nightmares on that particular topic had stopped weeks ago.

Post Fight the Future Scully is determined to pick up Mulder's mood... although the "case", its unpleasant associations, and their meal afterward underscores the wounds both of them are still licking clean. (Though not strictly RST, the underlying understanding between them is undeniably bent in that direction.)

@lotsoforangesoutside/@lotzzoforangezoutside‘s (Ao3) Detoured: Arcadia (Tumblr)

Scully looks at him expectantly, and he kind of likes it a little. She never looks at him like that, like he’ll MacGyver them out of this sticky mess.

It is a sticky mess. A very sticky mess.

Arcadia Mulder is torn over the fake (and real) relationship he must project with Scully.

@aloysiavirgata's (Ao3, WBM, Gossamer, LJ, Alt. LJ) The Waters of Babylon, Petrichor, and Singing of Mount Abora

Beside him comes a rustle of paper. Scully’s printed out directions from MapQuest, checking off turns like a shopping list. “Still another three miles before the access road,” she says, not looking up from her trim navy-blue lap. She takes a sip of coffee.

Mulder coughs, says nothing. Things aren’t strained exactly, it’s not that. It’s more a liminal space. Everything’s fine, he tells himself. Everything’s fine.

He  checks his hair again.

Mulder and Scully's relationship slowly melds together, from reflective, post-Arcadia memories to tentative, post-Amor Fati consummation to stinging, miraculous post-IVF hope.

Obfusc8er's Deus ex Machina

The black, writhing shade shot out fingers of darkness, exploding into thousands of swirling entities. The light from the window was doused by the mass of evil in the room. Scully gasped, nearly dropping the phone from her hand. She stood transfixed, paralyzed by shock and fear. The volume of the chorus in her ear grew louder, and the obscure shapes grew more frantic, circling with tremendous speed.

Scully is awash with horror while on a routine Kersh detail.

Jo-Ann Lassiter's The Death of Me Yet

It was a bull moose, and it was big. And it was standing about ten feet away, smack in the middle of the trail. Even if Scully hadn't read the literature on vehicle/moose collisions and the ensuing human fatalities, she would have chosen to avoid something twice her height and weight--jeep and Mulder included.

She slammed on the brakes and jerked the wheel sharply to the right, in the only direction that wouldn't get them killed outright. The change in terrain was drastic.

Kersh forces Mulder on a case, despite his ill health. With Scully as her partner's shadow, the two try to escape the woods, their safety and the approaching dark (and its monster) driving them further and further down a mountain.

TessMooreXF's Armadillo Season

She mused that it must be armadillo season, for all the hardened little corpses that had dotted the sides of the highway on her journey from Dallas. 

Post The Rain King Kersh assigns the duo to an unexpectedly twisted case.

Wylfcynne's Imagine

"You aren't getting free until we have a clear MRI," she said calmly.

Mulder exploded in rage, screaming, cursing, struggling violently. On the status monitor, everything began to escalate. Three Project doctors came running in, alerted by the system alarms, and stopped, awed at the violence they were witnessing.

Post S.R. 819 Mulder and Scully are intercepted, kidnapped, and tortured while on a cult assignment. She helps to rescue her partner, but not before he is infected with black oil.

@danascullysjournal/Paper_hearts_and_homemade_arts's If You Will Let Me (Tumblr)

Padgett’s face faded to the pale, chilled skin of the corpse she had inspected three days ago.  He grinned at her with lifeless eyes.  His fingers pressed deeper inside her chest, and red spattered his sunken face.

“I am… in you…”  The lips of the cadaver did not move.  She sensed his voice ringing inside her head.

Post Milagro Mulder and Scully slowly begin to recover... but are then thrust into more disastrous supernatural circumstances. (While not strictly post-RST, this fits along those lines.)

cropcircle's Secrets in Seattle

“This must be terrible for you just laying here, Mulder,” Scully said.

“I can’t wait until this is over. If only to get this wretched cast off my arm.” ‘And to pick up where we left off when Skinner interrupted us,’ Mulder thought to himself. “I wish I could help you more.”

Post Millennium Mulder is kidnapped while Scully investigates a hospital case. (While this isn't strictly post-RST, it does end along those lines.)

Beshter's Seasons: Seventh

"Fear doesn't have to be complicated." Mulder was already into the bag of cashews, clearly pleased with what he found.

"I know that, but it did make me think about the things we fear. What sort of fears do the average people have? Would it be enough to terrify me to death?"

"Would they?" Mulder asked around a mouthful of nuts.

Post Millennium Mulder and Scully spend the rest of Season 7 figuring out the new parameters of their new relationship.

@slippinmickeys/SlippinMickeys/Slippin' Mickeys's The Unseelie Court

It hadn’t been fair of her to seduce him, though it had been a glacial, intellectual courtship, inevitable, really, in every sense of the word. Mulder was tender-hearted and obsessive and after their second time together, she should have known that no amount of her stoicism or sense of workplace propriety would keep them from wanting to be together all the time. Last night, she’d had a foot out the door and was pushing him away with one hand and pulling him back with the other, his fingers tangled in her hair in rapacious bliss. 

They still weren’t sure how to be with each other, and that morning they’d walked down to Mulder’s car in a loaded, restless silence. 

In this on-going chapter fic, Mulder and Scully investigate a fae x-file, the first after their under-the-table consummation.

subtlealchemy/weetown's a trick of the light

She had been avoidant, too, of facing the reality of Mulder’s condition being her fault. Even though she knows deep down that it isn’t, that she had not meant for any of it to happen, it somehow still is her fault. 

She had been the one holding the gun, after all. And her unchecked and lonesome guilt had only expanded and nourished itself in the dark, sated in the span of two nights.

Two nights spent drifting in and out of sleep on rough, sun-dried dirt with her fistful of Mulder’s bloodied sleeve that said, Stay here, even though he had been mostly unconscious and all but about to get up and go somewhere.

Mulder and Scully investigate claims of woodland magic.

Analise's (Alt. Tumblr, Colonization HQ) Haunted House

Then a rattle. Pipes groaned and protested in rusty appeals and then a thin trickle of water burbled out of the faucet. She cupped her hands under the stream and splashed it onto her cheeks, washing the remains of her makeup off. Her hair was starting to dry in long scraggly strands around her oval face and since a shower was not an option, she ran her hairbrush through the red strands until they gleamed in the candlelight. Pulling her toothbrush out she leaned back over the sink to wet the bristles and froze.

Blood was coming out of the faucet.

Mulder and Scully find themselves in a right-from-the-movies spooky mansion, with events ramping up, not slowing down, the longer the night goes on.

@piecesofscully/PiecesOfScully's Ravenous

The scratching against the wall behind them started low, as if it was coming from under the cot they sat on, like thick nails desperately attempting to burrow through the wooden barrier. Scully’s heart beat faster, through the wood she felt the scratching gradually work its way up to her lower back, clawing up behind her spine to just above her head, then stopped. A chill ran the same path up her spine as a whisper came from just above their heads.

“Skuhhhh.”

It was only a matter of time before Mulder and Scully stumbled on another creature in the woods... but is there only one?

@syntax6's (Gossamer, FFN, omniscribe) The Man Without a Trace (omniscribe)

Mulder slackened his hold on Scully and looked at the crumpled comic book again. Sure enough, at the bottom it read, "Starring Rocky Miller and McKenzie Sally."

Post First Person Shooter Mulder and Scully find out that TLG turned them into profitable comic book characters... and stumbled on a case at Comic Con.

doctorhelena's Something In Between

Scully bit her lip and willed herself not to imagine again what would have happened if Skinner hadn't taken a leap of faith. Mulder was insistent. "What would I have mutated into if you hadn't stopped it - how many of those people are out there? People who already have identities, but who won't be reported missing by their family and friends, because they’re already dead. People who can infiltrate themselves easily into society and nobody will ever know the difference. This is huge, Scully. And I don't -" he cut off, watching her face. His eyes were alive.

"How can you-" she asked. "Mulder, how can you just - you were almost -" She couldn't talk. Her throat had closed up again. 

Post Deadalive Mulder, Scully, and Doggett begin investigating other "dead" and buried abductees.

"...I’m done with all that. I no longer chase aliens.”

“This isn’t about aliens.”

“Does it matter?”

“It’s a mutant.”

She returned to sorting clothes, plucking matching socks from the pile, glad that Katie was asleep in bed and not listening in on this all-too-familiar conversation.

“A liver-eating mutant,” he added.

Post My Struggle IV Mulder and Scully tackle an old foe they thought was long dead.

"So, what's the procedure for this sort of thing?"

"Procedure?" "

You know... Interviewing somebody. Getting Kayleen to agree to an examination."

"Depends on the person. Sometimes you need to tread carefully, sometimes you need to push."

She smiled. "Which category did I fall into?"

"Both. I had to make a whole new category, just for you."

AU-- Mulder becomes a reoccurring patient to ER doctor Scully. Their friendship blossoms, their relationship blooms, and she agrees to consult on a case.

CaptainLyssa's To FBI or Not To FBI

Rolling her eyes, Scully had seen the female agent leaving Mulder’s room as she exited the elevator this morning. Patrice, Mulder’s nurse assured Scully the visit had been brief and she’d gained little information about Mulder’s condition from the staff. It seemed the rumours worked in Scully’s favour in this instance.

AU-- Scully is a worn-down ER nurse that strikes up a random, fast-paced relationship with enigmatic but deeply-committed Special Agent Mulder. His sudden hospitalization, her secret pregnancy, and Diana Fowley's unwanted appearance (almost) shakes her faith in her new partner.

“You’re supposed to be at the hospital, Scully. I was coming as soon as…”

He broke off like he’d simply run out of words. He was coming as soon as—as soon as he could, as soon as they found Samantha, as soon as he knew what was happening.

AU-- Post One Breath Mulder and Scully begin a relationship; and very soon after discover (during the events of Aubrey) that she is expecting a little "alien."

"Mulder, it never really occurred to me before, and I certainly admire the skill with which you construct that masterpiece you've got going there, but I seem to recall a bit of a phobia you used to have about fire." She placed his mug down on the mantle. "How have you gone from fear to Master Fire Builder?"

"It's all about control, Scully." Mulder paused for a moment as he twisted the life out of another geometrically perfect square of newspaper. "This is our house. This fireplace is a perfect little contained area, inside our house, where one can have a controlled fire that *stays* in control. If I build the fire, I have control over it. I am its master. I *am* Fire Boy."

"You've thought about this before."

AU-- Season 5 Mulder and Scully are married and expecting a very large baby. ...And are forced into a hostage situation.

"I didn't want to believe her," Scully smiled tightly. "But she did know where the body was, and she's very convincing. It took a long time before she finally told me HOW she 'saw' him." She looked up at him, confusion in her eyes. "Mulder, she says she can see through the eyes of any living animal. That she can transport her consciousness into another living thing and to see what it sees and feel what it feels!" 

"Can she control the mind of the animal she inhabits?" Mulder had heard of people who could transfer like this. 

"No," Scully shook her head. "She says she's just 'along for the ride'. Sometimes she can tweak its curiosity a bit, but that's all."

AU-- Post Orison Scully leaves for an ASAC position when Mulder doesn't ask her to stay. But not to worry: they are reunited a year later for a case, then another, then the explosion of the mytharc.

Khyber's Reach + Sokol (Reach, Sokol 1/2, Sokol 2/2, Sokol - Dancing Skeleton Day, Sokol - Terminus Post Quem)

"Light plane crash, Washington. Less than an hour ago. Apparently we should be there. He said to do an autopsy."

"Did you recognize the voice?" "

Whoever it was knew I was here."

AU-- Mulder and Scully take the next step after a rough, disturbing case involving a fifteen-year-old. From there, their lives only get more complicated as the Consortium closes in.

It's Been . . . 01, It's Been . . . 02, It's Been . . . 03

Mulder blinked and looked at her, then shook his head.

"I have a headache."

She glanced quickly into the basment, then stopped still, shocked as she watched Nick Hazel sway before an enormous fire, sweat and dirt dripping from him in a sensuous, serpentine motion. She felt herself being pulled into the hypnotic dance of the fire and closed her eyes, tight.

Then backed away, grabbing for Mulder.

AU-- A ditch-and-dash injury changes the course of Mulder's life: recovery, marriage, a Floridian honeymoon, and an arsonist case upon their return.

That was the good day. The only good day. I should have paid better attention to that day because it was a long time before that day would come again, a better day, a day with hope.

AU-- Post En Ami CSM hands over a baby of mysterious origins to Mulder. Scully resists her partner's domestic inclinations at first, but caves-- although adoption and subsequent marriage don't stop on-the-job injuries and heart-wrenching biological connections.

@rationalcashew/RationalCashew's Dark is the Way; Light is the Place (Tumblr)

Scully could feel Mulder watching her from the other side of the desk. He’d been doing it for the last week. At first, she thought it was sweet. Now, it was just annoying.

“Mulder…” she warned, cocking an eyebrow at him from over the file in her hand.

“What?” He asked innocently.

“You’re staring.”

“We’re having a baby,” he replied simply.

“Yes, we are. But, that doesn’t mean I can work with you staring at me constantly."

AU-- Although Requiem Mulder rushes back to Scully, their combined joy over an unexpected miracle becomes intertwined with frustration over a challenging, and pointedly dangerous, serial killer case.

Lapsed_Scholar's Season 9 Rewrites and Musings

Dana sighed. “I suppose this is one of those cases in which not everything is fully, satisfactorily explained. We can only make an educated guess that matches a preponderance of the evidence. Which is a foundational principle I have to somehow instill in my intro to forensic pathology students in...about five minutes, actually.” She carefully passed William (who had apparently tired of her hair and fallen asleep) to Mulder and stood up.

His eyes were shining when he smirked up at her. “How do you plan on doing that? You just gonna write ‘Uncertainty’ on the board, Scully?”

She shot him a look that had too much underlying affection to be truly quelling. 

AU-- Season 9 Mulder never leaves; and he and Scully (and William) are pulled into the Doggett-Reyes cases, despite his reluctance.

@dreamingofscully's Surely, to the sea 

When Mulder switched off the ignition, oppressive silence weighed down upon them - no birds, no chirping insects. She hadn’t noticed under the roar of the engine and the trepidation that she fought to control. Staring ahead and swallowing thickly, she forced herself to analyze the evidence they’d acquired so far. Perhaps the same thing that interfered with their radio drove away wildlife. 

AU-- Married paranormal investigators Mulder and Scully lodge with a suspiciously odd man who is always licking his fingers.
