"How Do You Write Such Realistic Dialogue-" I TALK TO MYSELF. I TALK TO MYSELF AND I PRETEND I AM THE

Just saw a gif from Beyond The Sea and then i remembered that when i first watched that episode i was so obsessed with the scene where Scully absolutely loses her shit i memorized it by accident and also recorded it on my phone and saved it to my camera roll

how to say "I love you" in x-files [46/?] ⤷ 6.03 — "Triangle"

WhatifIweretosay chronic pain Scully who won’t diagnose herself because then she would have a bias and wont try to get diagnosed because she knows how this system works and Mulder who is desperately trying to get her to see a doctor but, “its not debilitating so its fine” is high key her audited

I think HCing characters with physical disabilities is good and should be done more often but whenever I do it I feel like

Personally I’m angst lover and I love the moments where angst forces emotion from characters. They couldn’t have killed Scully and we all knew that, but there was something about watching Mulder not know that is so txf. It’s so “he wants to believe” that she will get better while while still not knowing how exactly that is possible and her being completely convinced (after Momento Mori) that she will be dying and, “no Mulder don’t fight me in this, it’s a fact” that is just so in line with the entirety of the show. And while I’ve also not seen a lot of fics where Scully doesn’t get cancer I also think that a lot of caner arc fics dont get a lot of love. I understand people sometimes just want to read something feel-good and cute but don’t knock the emotional catharsis of watching two people who are madly in comfort each other through the fact that they are about to be ripped apart until you try it.

Y’all should go read “I Never Got Over Those Blue Eyes (I See Them Everywhere)” by HeavyOnTheTragedy on AO3 because shameless self promotion

no no you guys don't get it. the x files cancer arc was, excuse the pun, a fucking white whale of a tv plotline that would not have worked nearly as well on literally any other show. it was a complete hail mary. the writers' room nearly didn't make it happen because they were worried it would fall too deeply into soap opera territory. and on any other show, it would! but the x files is about four key things: mistrust in the government, faith in both science and the otherworldly, building a life around trauma, and the fine line between love and codependency. it is the only show where the entirety of this situation- a government experiment on an unwilling young catholic leads to a terminal illness that is counteracted by a literal scientific miracle in the eleventh hour due to her partner's refusal to accept her impending death- could both happen at all and happen well. none of the themes in the cancer arc were new to txf at all. they'd all been lurking, to some extent, in the background since the pilot. the cancer arc wasn't merely milking a left-field catastrophe for the drama, it shoved the overarching themes of the show to the front and said look. look what these people are to each other. look how impossible it is to face the darkness alone. regardless of when the plotline was conceived, it was always going to happen. it was the only way the story could have ever gone. they were always doomed from the beginning
