Summary
This story was inspired by a prompt from tictoc134 💗
The narrative builds toward Mulder finally confessing his feelings to Scully, only for her, for reasons of her own, to turn him away.
Unable to reconcile working beside her while processing the emotional fallout, Mulder leaves DC to follow a work-adjacent lead up north. There, he unexpectedly meets someone who helps him gain a sense of clarity.
In his absence, Scully remains in DC, with no word from him for three weeks. She is left sitting with the weight of what she said, fully aware of the hurt she caused, while also dealing with her own sense of loss and the pain of his complete withdrawal.
Note: This is tagged as Mulder/Other (and then of course, MSR). This is a dynamic I previously thought I would never write, but I’ve learned to never say never. 😅 That said, as with my Scully/Other content, this aspect does not dominate the story, but it serves a specific purpose within the larger arc.
Thank you, tictoc134, for the prompt! I really appreciate your patience, especially since you requested this a while ago. I made a few adjustments, but I believe the core idea is still there. I hope you enjoy it 💗🙏🥰

Summary
Three months.
Three months of walking past Mulder’s desk and refusing to look at the empty chair. Three months of pretending that the silence in the basement office didn’t hum louder than the fluorescent lights.
When Walter Skinner had called her into his office and told her Mulder had been reassigned, off the books, classified even from her, she’d stood perfectly still. Hands folded. Chin lifted.
“For his safety,” Skinner had said.
“For how long?” she’d asked.
“I don’t know.”
And that had been that.Bookmarked by Schellettina

Summary
Post-cancer arc. Remission changes everything and nothing. Scully and Mulder fall into a new routine: Sunday nights, case files, and conversations they're both too careful with. When someone asks for her number, Scully says yes. It's the right choice. Probably.

"Life is a dream that is never recalled when the sleeper awakes.
If this is beyond you, Magnificent One,
Just go to the graveyard and ask around."
