how to say "I love you" in x-files [159/?] ⤷ 3.02 — “Paper Clip”
Day 11, Nighttime
Some siblings for you. Just for you. Perry is filing taxes somewhere else. @howtonerdoutovereverything
but on the other hand i object to the allegation that a 'loyal malewife transformation' was necessary. MSR is not The Taming Of The Shrew/Moonlighting, they just liked each other on a personally compatible level from day 2 and both of them are hard wired for extremes of devotion, which are demonstrated immediately.
mulder saying 'nothing else matters' about trying to save his baby sister and 'wanting to believe' that she will be returned safe is a demonstration of that absurd devotion and by the time Scully's shown she's not going to turn on him and in fact will take secret military police hostage for him, she's earned that devotion, too. Even when these things aren't directly stated, they can be inferred from their actions.
Even when they don't agree about work things and scientific findings, there are no phases believed the other is shallow/amoral/scum-like/vindictive/faithless, etc.
scully in 20-30% of episodes
Skinner and Scully have had some contentious moments, all of which I am convinced is just one second away from them ripping each other's clothes off and having massively brutal sex.
But I digress... here are some really bad screenshots of them making faces at each other during a fight... I get bonus points for kissy faces and tongues!
obsessed with the idea of immortal dana scully falling in love with mulder's reincarnation in every lifetime...
mulder doesn't have to always come back in human form. imagine after his death, a sunflower blooms in their backyard, and scully just knows! so she takes care of it and talks to it and it becomes her refuge somehow.
on a sillier narrative, imagine mulder coming back as a fox, and scully's just like, really?
