Summary
***
She raised her chin again, but her eyes were as soft as her voice: “I heard some of... that.” She said, indicating out there.His nose twitched, displeased, embarrassed: “It won't happen again, Agent Reyes.”
She dismissed it with a wave of her hand. “Oh, I don't care.” She took a moment to collect her thoughts again. “But it is curious, Detective, wouldn't you agree?”
She put one hand on her hip, the other tapped the table absently.
“I'm not the only Fed who does monsters. Not by a long shot. But I am the only woman, specifically trained for it. Couple of guys I know have female partners but... they come as a pair, almost always, in such cases. I'm on loan to everyone. Just me. Just little ol' Monica."
Her smile was amused: “And where do they send her?”
John's scowl deepened: “To the wolves.”

Sharp Edges, another of my stories currently a WIP, focuses on Mulder and Scully. Doggett and Reyes, both appear in that story... mostly apart. But for what reason?I hope I gave Monica Reyes the shot she never got in the show. Hell of a character.
Vamanos.
Thank you Evil_Irish_Batman for the beta, they are the reason this is even mildly coherent.

Summary
This last case had made Charlie feel nauseous. The body of the victim was painful to look at—it made him want to throw up, because it just seemed so cold to carve into someone's skin like that. He didn't tell Don, though—because shouldn't he be used to this kind of thing, after so many cases?
Working on the cipher carved into their victim's skin leads to an upsetting conclusion to the case. Charlie can't handle it—he feels disgusted, he feels guilty—so he takes a walk in the rain.
Don's not quite sure why his brother picked the one day that year they're having a thunderstorm to go traipse about the city after their case, but he's kind of worried—and with such horrible visibility, he needs to make sure both that Charlie doesn't get hit by a car, and that he's okay.

Summary
She tilted her head, unconvinced. “Lucifer…” He finally met her eyes, and something flickered there—exhaustion, maybe. Or something closer to fear. “I’m worried about you,” she said softly.
That caught him off guard. For a moment, all the usual bravado and snark peeled away, and he just stared at her, vulnerable. “I’ve faced angels, demons, God’s bloody ex-wife,” he said, almost to himself. “But nothing terrifies me more than… this. You. Us.”
