i just watched paper hearts and i love how scully is so determined to act as mulder’s protector. she just wants to keep him safe from everything that threatens to hurt him including himself. their embrace in the end reinforces that i think, it’s not an embrace where they’re on equal ground, mulder is sitting and scully is standing so he’s visually subordinate to her and you can really feel how scully perceives him as vulnerable and just wants to protect him. i love her 💗
paper hearts is the cheese orb episode to me. (cheese orb is a genre of x-files episode that exists if you've let this post into your life.) she'll call him out when they're alone and then turn around and defend him and keep all his secrets. it's such a classic vince gilligan lens on the insularity of their relationship and the choices scully is making to keep it that way. I love that the staging of that hug makes mulder into a little boy, waist high. the whole episode does that. the pink t shirt (definitive!), the image of him digging in the dirt (boy move), his dreams: this is the mulder who was frozen in childhood every bit as much as his sister was, and scully sees him and has to protect him. and that's not even getting into the fact that it's all rooted in how horrifying and painful the whole show would be if mulder were wrong about aliens, and if scully were right. so it's essentially scully protecting mulder from herself, too. everyone was on their game with paper hearts. vince gilligan and rob bowman are a power couple

fyi, asks on this blog have indeed been closed for a minute—i'm working on a pinned faq post that i want to get up before they reopen, and also real life demanded a little free headspace that fills up as quickly as the inbox
