Summary
She wants to say something, anything, but words are lost on her. She knows what she needs: him, his apartment, his hands on her shoulders holding her down. But she doesn’t say any of those things, because what is the protocol for asking her boss if she can come over to his apartment at two in the morning in her pyjamas and crash on his couch? What is the protocol for telling him that she needs to be able to hear him breathing through the crack of his bedroom door as a reminder of his existence?
Donna holds it together after Rosslyn for Josh's sake. But everybody has a breaking point.

Summary
“Donna,” Josh said, standing there strangely with his arms hanging at his sides like a limp sort of mannequin.
“Josh,” she grumbled. “I think I caught the black plague.”
“Um, Donna,” he said stiltedly, and cleared his throat. “Uh. You’re. You’re in your underwear."
Suddenly, Donna felt very, very awake.
In which a pigeon invades Josh's office, Donna is lovesick, and CJ has the strangest phone call of her life.

Summary
Mulder and Scully are called out to Sugar Hollow, Alabama, in the wake of the disappearances of three girls.
The people are strange and uncanny. The humid heat never seems to let up. The Sheriff thinks that they're married.
He wants a store that stocks sunflower seeds. She wants looser clothes that won't stick to her sweat. They both want a proper motel room with two beds.
It'll be a miracle if their professional relationship makes it out alive.

Summary
"You say that no matter what you will always be my friend. And that’s nice of you, Mike, really, and I know that you mean it, I do,” he says, and he’s on the brink of rambling and Mike’s staring at his lips trying to keep up with his frantic words, “But would you still mean it if I said that you were my Tammy?”
Mike goes to open his mouth, not really sure what he’s going to say, but then-
“And I know you don’t know what that means, it’s just something that Robin said, but I- Mike, when I was talking about having this crush on someone-”
“How did you work out that your crush wasn’t like you?” Mike interjects, and Will’s mouth opens and closes like a fish. “How can you be sure?” He doesn’t know why he’s asking, but he is, and suddenly he needs to know like he needs oxygen and coffee and hot water for his showers.
Will rubs awkwardly at his neck, adjusting his head a little. When he does, the golden rays of the setting sun somehow align perfectly with his face, and his eyes are suddenly flecked with speckles of brilliant amber. They’re like pools, pools of light. Mike thinks that-
Oh.
Mike Wheeler realises. But nothing good is ever easy.

Summary
Mike Wheeler has never had an eye for colour. His mismatched socks and striped shirts tell a story of chaos, not order; a fast, frantic, impulse-driven livelihood. A world never stopping to be watched, to be observed, to be noted. He doesn’t think about the things that he sees: the green of the grass or the pale, washed out beige of the carpet in his mother’s living room. He doesn’t care for the shades of the blossoms that bloom every time winter lurches into spring, doesn’t make time to observe the watercolour shades of his sister’s eyes or the chocolate of his mother’s hair. But if anyone were to ask, he’d say that his favourite colours are yellow and blue.
