    Summary

    A mother just knows. A series of snippets of Mulder and Scully's developing relationship through the eyes of Maggie Scully.

    Dana avoided talking about him in any depth, this told her a lot. Dana kept her heart close to her chest; if they weren’t hearing about him Maggie suspected that there was something her daughter was trying to hide.

    The doorbell rang. She heard Bill get up out of his chair and head into the hallway as she saw her husband open the door. A young dark haired man wearing a long black trench coat standing on the other side; he was tall and arrestingly handsome. He was dark, brooding with a lock of hair falling over his hazel eyes. Suddenly Maggie understood the appeal.

    Summary

    It’s witnessed a lot for a couch. A lot, a lot, a lot. Depravity, desperation, death. Much more than a typical piece of value-priced furniture would expect from a lifetime.
    But there’ve been good things, too. Tenderness and trust. Passion.

    Summary

    In this canon-divergent reimagining of Season 8, Mulder’s return marks the beginning of a painful and complex reckoning.

    The world he knew has changed—his work has moved on without him, and Scully, now seven months pregnant, stands before him both familiar and achingly distant. Haunted by PTSD and unable to process the trauma of his abduction, Mulder retreats inward, struggling to find his place in a life that no longer feels like his own.

    For Scully, his return is a miracle shadowed by heartbreak. She is overjoyed he's alive, but his emotional distance deepens the loneliness she endured during his disappearance. As both grapple with grief, change, and unspoken fears, they must learn to navigate this new chapter together—where patience, healing, and love will be their only way back to each other.

    Note: This reimagining of Season 8, offers an alternative path in which Mulder’s emotional distance is explored with greater nuance—granting him the space to confront his trauma and better understand the weight of his experiences. At the same time, it allows Scully to articulate her own heartache and find validation in the profound grief she endured during his abduction, presumed death, and eventual return.
