THE X-FILES 30TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION ➙ day 5: favorite arc

AD Walter Skinner

He went from being dismissive of the X-Files and Mulder in particular to being one of their strongest allies.

mulder is like if a weird little girl was an adult man

the x files is funny because at the time it was “progressive” or whatever to have the ultra-rational, levelheaded character be a woman

but it’s also a show where all the fucked up alien shit actually is real, so she’s just constantly wrong about everything

these guys are running around in my head like hamsters on a wheel

rain (several times, lots of it, sometimes in different colors and/or with teeny monsters in it)

toads (their parachutes didn't open)

a cow (with mulder's name on it)

things that have not rained on mulder and scully:

sleeping bags

the x-files "triangle" (1998) is a wonderful episode of television

rewatching early txf and seeing mulder and scully when they are so young and so enamored with each other is so heavy…they are so excited to have met each other and they are going to go through so much together…they are going to lose their entire families together. they are going to lose time and autonomy and health together. they are going to live together and die together and nearly die together and never die together. they are going to have and lose a child together, and see that loss in each other for the rest of their lives. they are going to look to each other anyway, for everything, and say things like “i’m always happy to see you” and “always happy to find a reason” even at their most distant and estranged. she doesn’t know it then, but running out into the rain after him in bellefleur will be the end of the life that she imagined for herself. she doesn’t know it then, but it will lead to the loss of her safety and her family and her career and her children. and when she does know all of those things, she says “i would do it all over again.” she says “i wouldn’t change a day.” she says “i don’t begrudge you any of those things.” she says “i want to remember how it all was.” and if she could do it all over again, she would still chase him into the rain and laugh when he said that aliens were summoning the kids to the forest and ask him where they were going next and follow to wherever the answer was. because they would rather do this life together than do any other apart.
