In honor if this olympic season everyone should read this fic by @slippinmickeys
I just finished it while rewatching yesterday’s argentina v us field hockey game was very good (basket ball player mulder and field hockey player scully?)
Okay I know better than to post my face on tumblr but i lowkey got a Scully-bob (i cut it today) so do with that information what you will
All of season 1
Mulder, constantly asking Scully about dating and suggesting men for her to date, Scully, constantly leaving them all to be with him.
headcanon that when Scully is suffering from motherly or brotherly pressure about her life choices or hears about another old med school or college friend meeting ordinary life milestones she missed, or Skinner's annoyed with them about something (like Mulder being behind on the paperwork which she refuses to do for him), she starts stress cleaning her apartment.
But because she's already neat and also not home a lot, there isn't a lot to clean, so usually after the second time she finds herself disinfecting the kitchen sink on a Satunday mid-morning, she goes to Mulder's place, lets herself in and stars stress cleaning there, too. Usually Mulder's still asleep on the couch with the classic movie station still playing, but she has blanket permission after the first couple of times trying to distract a tightly wound Scully at his place from his scrap file of tabloid cases turned into her trying to declutter his place while lecturing him about dust mites, tripping hazards, bacteria, eccentrics who live in danger of being crushed by their prized collections, which certainly was a distraction, so now she knows she's welcome to come over any time and disinfect and tidy and sort the mail etc as long as she doesn't try anything purge-like on his boxroom (listed as a bedroom on his lease). And she usually tries not to wake him unless his lackadaisical book keeping is why she's stressed. So some weekend late mornings Mulder wakes up to a spotless table and laundry bags by the door and the smell of lemon clorox and coffee and a manic-but-winding-down flannel shirt Scully sitting with her mug in the desk chair, not quite watching him sleep (she usually claims to be hypnotized by the fish).
Greetings are usually ridiculous Mulder guesses about what's got her on the boil ("Maggie signed you up for ballroom dancing classes with Engleburt from Sunday potluck and your Spanish heels are in the shop?" "Douglas from organic chem invented a new breed of hypoallergenic bio-luminescent guinea pigs and this singularly useful achievement makes you worry about measuring up, dr. Frankenstein-wise?") and complaints that she was going to make brunch but all he had in the fridge was former milk swiftly becoming yogurt and desiccated pizza of dubious provenance, both of which are in the trash bag she expects him to take out. So he usually goes out for bagels and cream cheese and eggs and chives and milk, and half and half for the coffee (he prefers real cream but she won't drink it, claiming it makes the coffee taste "slimy" so it would be a waste).
If she's still wound up enough to be running the vacuum when he gets back, he makes a project of cajoling until she talk about it and remind her she's on a different but still immensely valuable path, which isn't a bad way to spend a day together really. Or if she's re-entered his reality where she doesn't have to compete with Normal People (or doesn't need to remind him five more times to finish that report) and worked through the stress, she's usually curled up asleep on the couch when he gets back with brunch fixings. This is also fine because toasting and munching and wiggling onto the far end of the couch to watch a ball game while his partner naps is also a good way to spend an afternoon and they can have dinner together later. (And he can always spread those files back out across the table the same way after she leaves for the night.)
My desire to write vs prework inability to do anything and my laptop on the verge of death
I need to settle and argument please reblog
Okay so I dont speak Spanish but I’ve taken enough Spanish classes and worked with a lot of Spanish speaking people and I almost piss myself laughing any time (and this only happens like twice) that Mulder and Scully try to speak Spanish because their accents are so goddamn bad
This is my favorite x-files blooper and I quite it whenever playing games with my friends… the inly thing is they dont know what im referencing and think i have poor self esteem
why was this in my files
I was about to make a post abt how much i love triangle and then I remembered I already did that
I dont understand softball or baseball but i need this!!
I need a MSR high school au but it's actually a baseball/softball summer camp/rivals to lovers AU with pitcher!scully and catcher!mulder facing off across a corn field in the space between two summer camps, and then falling in love across the 66 ft between mound and home.
When i tell you that i rented the movie and recorded this scene on my phone so it is in my camera roll
If youd like to listen to me ramble about it I do that now and also i write fanfiction (a HeavyOnTheTragedy on AO3)
