Holiday Reads Repost...

While I'm in the middle of finishing up rewrites in two stories, and finishing a third… I do actually have complete works sitting out there on AO3 which is perfectly timed for this Thanksgiving week…

Chapters: 3/3 Fandom: The X-Files Rating: General Audiences Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings, No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Dana Scully/Walter Skinner Characters: Walter Skinner, Dana Scully, Fox Mulder Additional Tags: Holidays, Thanksgiving, Road Trips, Humor, Series Series: Part One of Complimentary Mints

Summary: Complimentary Mints: One - A botched mission. A diverted flight. A Thanksgiving nightmare detours Agents Mulder and Scully, along with a frazzled Assistant Director Skinner, to the heart of nowhere, Kansas. Stuck in a dilapidated motel, tensions simmer between Mulder's relentless curiosity and Skinner's strained patience. Meanwhile, a seemingly mundane vending room trip throws Scully into an unexpected predicament Skinner rescues her from, sparking an undeniable spark that threatens to rewrite the script for their professional relationship. This is the beginning of a multipart series.

Part 2 - Brief Encounters: The morning after a bizarre series of events that no single agent quite remembers the same way, AD Skinner wakes to an unexpected bedfellow, a linguistic mishap with housekeeping, and a brief encounter with Scully that further rattles his austere equilibrium.

Part 3 - All The Kings Mints: Stranded by a winter storm, Agents Mulder, Scully, and Skinner embark on a chaotic road trip rife with tension and unspoken desires. Between facing a speeding ticket, battling a relentless ice storm, and enduring Mulder's peculiar food choices, the close quarters amplify a growing attraction between Scully and Skinner. Despite their professional distance, a near-miss accident and a late-night offer leave them both questioning their next steps as they reach Scully's apartment building.

Sorry, repost with the picture this time 💀

There's nothing better than having a show where you genuinely enjoy many different pairings and you know the characters would end up happy in different ways. Even more so when you still enjoy them 30 years later.

I honestly live for some Skinner/Scully. I really think that Skinner would be surprised every time Scully kissed him and would have a moment of shock before he kisses back. Even years and years after being with each other.

I want to do another one of them but after Skinner's hair has migrated to the front of his face.

Also I'll be adding this to my shop this week 👽

6, 13, and 23 from the fandom asks!

Thank you for the ask :D

6. Show us a bit of a WIP!

Oh gosh, I don't feel like I even have WIPs, just random notes and snippets, but I guess that's what WIPs are in the beginning. Since most of what I'm poking rn is kind of a mess, here's a random snippet from my Skinner/Scully S8 rewrite, of them running into an OC, Skinner's little sister Francesca (who I'm finding is very fun to write). I'm not sure if it'll make it into the fic, I just think it's cute.

"Waltie! I thought you were supposed to be working," Frannie says as she walks up. She stands on her tiptoes just a little, tilting her cheek up for him to kiss. "I am," he says, obliging her with the greeting as always. She wears her usual perfume, the same floral scent their mother wears. "There's such a thing as a lunch break, you know." "An actual lunch break, Waltie?" she raises a brow at him, a smirk playing on her lips. "Now I've seen everything. And who…?" Having noted that Scully is sitting at the same table that Walter just got up from, she glances around him toward the redhead. "Oh, yes, Frannie, this is Dana Scully, a colleague of mine. Scully, this is my sister Francesca." He gestures between the two women by way of introduction. Scully gets up out of her seat and as the two shake hands, Frannie's gaze darts briefly to the soft curve of Scully's belly under the white blouse, then up to her face, over to Walter's and back to Scully's. She has a look in her eyes that tells Walter she is beginning to come to an entirely wrong conclusion.

13. What's a character or ship you haven't written/drawn yet but would like to some day?

Hm... I mean, technically I haven't written any Skinner/Scully yet (just drafting and notes) but as far as characters or ships I haven't done anything with yet, I do eventually want to include Bashir and maybe Garak in something at some point, and maybe Odo and Quark too. (I do have a DS9 WIP but not with them).

23. Has your favourite character/ship changed over time?

For ships, I didn't really ship non-canon stuff when I was younger, so there I've just collected more ships over the years. For characters, certainly some have changed and some have been added. A good example is Deanna Troi. When I was a teen I didn't quite get it, I thought she was "just pretty", but as an adult I have so much more appreciation for her character and skill set.

Qs from this post if anyone else wants to ask!

Canon dialogue.

[whathappenstotheheart]

Any Skinner/Scully or Skinner/Scully/Mulder of mine automatically includes Walter gradually picking up Mulder duty whenever Dana is otherwise occupied, without anyone really asking him to. Mulder can't decide if he's disappointed or if he's happy the chances of getting picked up in a timely manner have gone up.

"Get in the car."

"Wait, where's Scully?"

"It's 3 am, Mulder. She's sleeping. Now get in the damned car."

mulder will do shit like call scully from jail and be like hi I got arrested trying to catch homeless bigfoot in an alleyway. I know you��re a six hour drive away but can you come pick me up. and scullys problem is that she will come pick him up eventually

Back to the Start

I need to clean this up a bit, but I love how it came out. 

(Yes, I’m procrastinating and getting inspired at the same time...)

[ospreyadderart]

Working on some more Skinner/Scully stuff. I just want to draw nsfw with the same vibe that people draw saints - if that makes sense lmao
