    Summary

    “Can you please explain to my mother that I am in fact this close,” Emily holds her pointer finger and thumb a scant millimetre apart, “to being a fully fledged adult and thus should be allowed the usage of the car for this coming Friday night.”

    “Excuse me Emily’s mother,” Scully half turns from the sauce she’s stirring to raise a brow at him, “Emily would like me to inform you that she is in fact very close,” Mulder holds up his fingers too,”to being a fully fledged adult and that this entitles her to the use of the car for Friday night shenanigans.”

    “Who got you flowers?” He presses, “they leave a card?”

    “No,” she says and plucks a card from between the petals, “they didn’t.”

    Summary

    “Happy new year,” Mulder says, his hand on the small of her back. What it must be like, to touch her so frequently and without thought.

    Summary

    “I can’t get past the noise,” Scully said, her nose scrunched up rather cutely.

    “How cheesy it sounds is part of the charm.”

    Summary

    “Has Jr said anything to you?”

    “Why?”

    “Because he thinks he has the right,” there’s an old, bitter edge to her words, a time dulled knife edge meant for a man Mulder’s only had a single, unpleasant conversation with. He wonders if all the Scullys are so bad at saying I love you.

    She’d taken one look at ‘mermaids’ and said ‘absolutely not, Mulder’ and because he was being a prick, he’d said, ‘absolutely yes, Scully, get ya coat.’

    Summary

    “There are things I’ll do for the last time,” she says and he wishes that instead, she had simply taken her scalpel and cut him from chin to pelvis, strewn his organs across the ugly blue vinyl. It would’ve hurt less.

    “Like dancing,” she says conversationally.

    Summary

    Mulder sighs out his nose, “I don’t know, she doesn’t believe in them, in aliens, I don’t know why we’re talking about aliens or why it’s so important to me that she should believe in them.”

    “I have to admit Mr Mulder, that this isn't making a whole lot of sense to me.”

    “It doesn’t make sense to me either.”

    Summary

    “You make me feel safe.”

    A fundamental truth of her universe exposed and she shifts under his gaze, jaw clenched tight. In her ears she hears the dead barrel clicking of a revolver bled dry and her cheeks burn.

    Summary

    He takes her to a planet alone in the sky, old and ancient and so alone, stars so far away and moonless, they’d need torchlight to see during the night. But he takes her during the day when the planet's sole companion, it's only sun, is high in the sky.

    Summary

    He dips his head, lips brushing against her ear and he says as softly as he can manage, “I know you want to stay right now,” he rubs his hands up and down her back, feels warm blood seep into the cracks between his fingers, the lines on his palms, “but could you let me stay?”

    It takes her a moment but eventually he feels her shake her head against his chest.

    "Then how could I ever let you?”

    Summary

    Ed stares into Izzy’s eyes, sees something inky dark inside of him, and realises that he’s making a promise, a vow and an oath and Ed says, “yeah,” breathless.

    A dark lock of hair falls across Izzy’s forehead. “Yeah,” Ed says again and feels the words, the vows, Izzy himself, hollow out his bones, replacing marrow with something stronger, unbreakable.

    Summary

    “Want me to take care of him for you?” Izzy offers and Ed leans forward, watches closely, something feral and protective burning low in his gut. Jackie looks back at Izzy with a raw sort of intensity he’s never seen before, a display of something clever and calculating and ruthless.

    “Yeah, I’d appreciate that,” she says, voice low and almost reverent. Ed sits back, pulls out his pipe and pats his pockets for a lighter.

    Summary

    He tells her about bank heists and a good Dalek, of all things and her smile comes easy then. He’s witty with his Scottish tongue, unafraid to use all the words his previous self would’ve wagged a finger in her face for. She tries, a bit desperately, to banish any thoughts of that low voice in other settings.

    But it feels dirty, wrong and she doesn’t dare think what he’d say if he knew, if he’d be disgusted, repulsed.

    Summary

    But Pippa doesn’t move, delicate eyelashes fluttering against her cheek.

    Hecate leans down, certain there is no air left in the world, and presses her lips above Pippa's brow. She lingers for a moment, inhaling flowers and sunshine and Pippa.

    And if Hecate, the softest, slightest of smiles playing on her lips, tilts her chin up and stands straight, Ada isn’t even tall enough on her tiptoes to kiss her.
