Summary
Deep down, Mulder knew that if they were entangled even more tightly, he’d eventually become more irritated than aroused by her voice. He’d hear it in reference to uneaten vegetables and unopened mail and unfolded laundry. That holy righteous rage of hers, that unquenchable fire that roared at him to be better and do better and live better, would illuminate not just his career but the entirety of his being. And he doubted he could live up to that scrutiny. After almost almost getting her killed any number of times, somehow Mulder knew that asking her to forgive more mundane betrayals would be the final straw. Abduction? Possession? Cannibalism? All in a day’s work. Leaving sunflower shells everywhere? That was a bridge too far. It was better, safer, sweeter, kinder to love each other the way they did. To keep some mystery alive, and with it her steadfast belief in him. Delaying consummation was delaying his inevitable disappointment of her.
OR
Inspired by Lepusarcticus' beautifully-written series "Incrementum," a series of interlinked, internally-consistent, episodic MSR vignettes in roughly canonical order.

Summary
There had been so many false starts between them. They lived in this dichotomy that had become all too comfortable; partners, friends; a professional air, a flirtation they skirted around and then those sporadic moments in the dark. Passionate and wanting, always as a result of something terrible and then never spoken of again. Cloistered and hidden away, until the next time.

Summary
House chases his dreams, visions, and childhood memories, finding himself in pain, in death, in love. Time is not linear (never been), and we all know how the human condition ends. Doesn't mean we can't get high on the interplay of meanings on the way there.

Early morning light dances across her features as we glide through the quiet streets, light and shadow shifting and changing, like she’s standing in front of one of my slideshows. It starts to rain, and she rolls down her window, holds out a hand to catch the drops.

Summary
Memories flash. For a moment Connor finds himself back in Faraday’s garage where he stumbles on a bunch of wires. The light of the corner monitor flicks between black and green, off and on. There it is, year 1996. On neon green, right in front of his eyes.
“Anderson.” Mulder snaps his fingers and Connor looks up, his LED turning from bright red to yellow, signalling his already visible discomfort.
“Connor? What is it?” Cooper finds himself asking.
“I…” he breathes for air he doesn’t even require. “I think I’ve travelled through time somehow.”

The newly deviant android Connor meets three beloved FBI agents Mulder, Cooper and Scully after accidental time travel to the past.Basically all of my favourites scrambled together :)

House stared straight ahead, jaw tight. He snatched the paper, scanning it again as if he could out-diagnose cancer by force of will. His vision blurred. The words swimming.

Mulder’s profiling skills combined with Scully’s forensic expertise lead them to a bookshop that sold the copy of Wuthering Heights that the killer is using as his calling card.
Mulder suspects Theodore Bell, the proprietor of the shop who seems awfully flirtatious with Scully. Not that flirting with Scully is against the law—although, as far as Mulder is concerned, maybe it should be.

Summary
Their roles were reversed, holding Wilson like his life depended on it (it did), like he was something incredibly precious (he was). Wilson’s eyes were misty. “I don’t want to die.”
House's lower jaw shivered. “I know.”
Wilson weighed out the moment, conflict warring in his eyes. “You’ll be here, won’t you?” His voice cracked. “I—I need to know you’ll stay. I won’t be able to do it alone. I need you.”
“I’ll stay.” Always, always, always.
...
In which Wilson pursues treatment for his cancer, no matter the cost. -
