how can i communicate to you that this relationship in this silly little show is honestly sincerely one of thee most compelling and affective (and i do mean affective and not effective) relationships i have ever seen depicted on screen. can't even talk about it without sounding insane. i swear to god this is not a case of bad media that just scratches a brain itch, this is a genuinely incredibly well written relationship between two complex and compelling characters who just. happen to be stuck in a ridiculous detective show set in the 1920s. HELP

Say what you will about season 7 of the X Files, there are certainly some clunkers in the season. However the season finale fucks and I will not be taking any criticism. Marita and Krycek cuntily teaming up to fuck over CSM. Krycek later pushing that musty old man down the stairs to the sound of me cheering, no matter how many times I’ve watched the episode. All the Mulder and Scully moments, including the bed cuddles. The reenactment of their first date case. The shot of everyone, including the Lone Gunmen, eating Chinese and talking government conspiracies. That final moment between Scully and Skinner, with the topic of a missing Mulder hanging over the scene and the fact that Scully is pregnant and the father is missing. Just!! It has sooooo many fucking good moments and it makes me go insane every time I watch it.

We need to talk about Scully’s birthday scene in Tempus Fugit!!! I was a MESS, I couldn’t focus for the rest of the episode!!! Here’s why:
1) Mulder using Scully’s full name in the song
2) the running gag about him remembering her birthday
Edit: @limit-of-heat just reminded me that they thought this could be Scully’s last birthday… and now I’m going to cry, thanks for nothing! Put it into a whole new perspective for me - Mulder is celebrating her birthday for once because he knows he might never get another opportunity…
3) it was so funny!
5) Mulder got her a present!!! And he was soooooo excited to give it to her. (Of course, he was only that happy because it was her though…)
“Something that reminded me of you”
“What, an alien implant?” (No Scully, he cares about you outside of the X-files too!)
“Two actually, I made em into earrings” HE IS SO UNSERIOUS
Okay, look, I’m a lesbian BUT Mulder is so precious in this scene:
Like THAT’S MY COMFORT CHARACTER RIGHT THERE!!!
———
O…okay… Mulder’s just undressing in front of Scully… yeah I’m normal!!!!!!!!!
Also, Scully’s deep analysis of the present he got her, and then Mulder playing it off by saying “I just thought it was a pretty cool keychain” (as if he’s not the one always looking for a deeper meaning!)

so what i'm seeing is fox mulder goes rapidly from flirty and fun to hypersexual the moment Scully is out of the picture not because he has any interest but because he's quite literally unable to do anything but find an outlet for pent up frustration and desperation and need and yearning. real.
