for the new followers !!!  this is just a   REMINDER    that dana scully may be a skeptic, but the x-files lives in an open ended nature of the supernatural. vampires? aliens? ghosts? poltergeists? they can 110% exist in our threads, even if scully is trying to debunk the theory. give me nightmare on elm street. give me your friendly neighborhood poltergeist. give me vampire mechanics and lochness monsters. give me horror stories. it can be funny, serious, gory. don’t be bashful !!!

just a friendly reminder: dana scully’s giggle

your daily dose of x-files pain that i always think about is that in 8x14 and 8x15, when scully finds mulder and they presume him dead? she follows out with his wishes. peaks at his charts to make sure he’s really dead. helps arrange the funeral because they’ve had late night conversations and pillow talk about this ; about what happens if they die or end up in a coma. she does everything she can  medically and  extraterrestrially     to bring him back,   BUT   she also respects his living-will and wishes. it breaks her heart to put him in the ground. 

especially in deadalive (8x15) when they find out that he is not dead. that she was kept out of the loop on a lead and a hunch, and he is alive. there’s so much relief. there’s also so much pain, especially trying to process the grief she has gone through since mulder isn’t there with her during that time. she’s spent months without him at her side, months without him at lamaze classes, months deciding to let go of his apartment and taking the fish to care for them. (you bet she grieves when that molly dies....). then he’s back. he’s been  buried alive   for three months. she has to deal with knowing she finalized the paperwork, made the arrangements, and put him in the ground. he didn’t have a noticeable heartbeat, but she still blames herself because he had the shimmer of one. he had one enough to be alive. she feels like she’s failed him.

which is why when he comes back, she tries to give him everything he needs. a place to stay, work when he asks for it, space. literally whatever he needs. it breaks her heart not to be able to tell him out loud that the baby is his, but she can’t burden him with a truth he isn’t read for and doesn’t seem to want while searching for himself. that makes her mouthing    ‘it’s yours’    all the more painful.
