Watching X Files For The First Time Is Going Great

Even when the world was falling apart, you were my constant… my touchstone. 

And you are mine.

DANA SCULLY & FOX MULDER in THE X-FILES, 1x01 “Pilot” 🤍

she says this to mulder every chance she gets

what did i do? x i rarely comment on fics.

Squeeze is such an iconic episode. Not only does it gives us the memorable ''Do you think I'm spooky ?'' scene but it also gives us : Mulder in glasses, his horrible ties, Scully's impeccable fashion sense, Mulder being territorial over Scully, Scully realizing she loves her work and loves working with Mulder, Scully saying Mulder is a great agent, a creepy as fuck monster, Mulder's worst joke ever (''Somebody having a garage sale'') and Mulder's best joke ever (''Is there any way I can get it off my fingers quickly without betraying my cool exterior ?''), an emotional moment of an old man finally getting closure over his worst case ever, Scully roasting the hell out of Colton (''Then I can't wait `til you fall off and land on your ass''), Mulder thinking Scully got the right guy and fighting to make her realize, and finally the soft shoulder touch at the end.

Oh and also this shot of very platonic gazing between two coworkers

Bad Blood Room Conspiracy

Were Mulder and Scully actually sharing a room in Bad Blood? Mulder starts off by claiming that he “ran into Scully at the motel.” He doesn’t specify that he’s in her room (although she has a line about asking him not to get mud in her room). But somethings are definitely suspicious as he makes himself a little too comfortable in the room.

1. Mulder is hanging out in “Scully’s room” while she’s not there, decides to turn on the TV on. Obviously settling in.

2. He starts undressing in her room, dumping his clothes all over the place.

3. Mulder’s not wearing pants. It’s important to the story because he had to go into the bathroom to get his wallet, leaving Ronnie with time to untie his shoes but the timeline doesn’t make sense-

4. Scully talks to Ronnie outside the door, so Mulder either strips faster than the speed of light, OR he took off his pants and undressed while Scully was still in the room. I’m guessing it had something to do with the vibrating bed, and the fanfic writes itself.

5. Looking very comfy on Dana’s bed/room. Where did the clean pants come from? Actually Mulder looks much cleaner, did he shower there?!

6. They had caller ID on those phones, my theory- Scully thought Mulder was calling for phone sex and called him a “creep.” She wasn’t horrified by this and let it go on for a little bit before hanging up, much longer than you would normally take a butt dial- so probably not the first Mulder heavy breathing call she’s received.

7. Where did the bag of sunflower seeds come from? Seriously he just completely moved into “her” room.

So they were actually going tell this story to Skinner, at no point in time did either of them act like Mulder invading her room was odd.
