X-Files Collector’s Edition: Canonical-Esque Crack Fic {Edited}

Crack fic isn’t a seek-and-find for me; but these, Dear Reader, are so well-written that an angel descended to place a holy smooch on my forehead-- platonically, of course. (And they at least make more sense than anything canonical that Cracked-Crust Carter wrote recently.) 

Loose chronological order below~ 

@poolsidescientist​‘s (Ao3) Overshadowed   

““I don’t even know why you wanted me to read it. You said you found it in the trash. Maybe it was there for a reason.”

“What makes you say that?” It was more of an accusation than a question.

“You mean, other than the fact that it’s terrible? Reading it was a waste of my time.” Skinner organised his papers and stuffed them in his briefcase. “It was the second worst thing I’ve read this week.””

S1-2 CSM wants someone to read his book... and tricks Skinner into doing so. And immediately regrets it. 

@viceversawrites’s (Ao3) Mulder eating a whole pie

““Conversely, Scully is still wide-eyed. “A whole pie? Mulder, I’m not sharing, and we can’t take it with us on the plane in the morning.”

“Who said I was going to share?” Mulder asked, a genuine tone of confusion in his voice.””

Post Jose Chung From Outer Space-- Scully is horrified to witness Mulder eating a whole pie in person, but doesn’t know what appalls her more: this hidden talent, or his complete nonchalance about it.

Stephanie Lutz’s Mask of the Green Death 

““Skinner took Scully’s arm and pulled her aside.  “I’d keep clear of Romeo if I were you,” he warned her in a low voice, inclining his head to the other side of the table.  “He’s been at the punch already.” 

Scully followed his gaze to where Agent Pendrell stood swaying slightly, in a poet’s shirt, and very tight tights.... Obviously spotting her, Pendrell’s already bright eyes widened, and he waved vigorously.””

It’s a S3-4 Halloween party at the Skinners; and Scully has to avoid the shenanigans of not only her partner, but also the besotted poet Pendrell.  Meanwhile, CSM roasts Mulder over his outfit. Even the aliens have thoughts. 

bellefleur’s Iced  

““Mulder took a deep breath and stepped back from the curtain, going over the routine in his head.  He had spent the day receiving a private lesson from the choreographer, topped off by a dress rehearsal with the entire cast less than an hour before curtain.  They had simplified the routine for his sake, but he hoped he wouldn't blow it.  If that wasn't complicated enough, he also had to keep watch for anything suspicious, since any of the skaters or backstage workers could be their suspect.   

They just didn't pay him enough for this job.””

Post Detour Mulder must relive his Ice Capades trauma in an ice-skating Big Bird disguise. Scully is fooled into believing she has escaped unscathed. 

Loved this one so much it deserved a badly drawn sketch: 

Is There A Doctor In the House

““Curious about the persistent clicking, Scully quietly approached until she could catch a glimpse of his screen. 

"Hard at work, I see?" 

"Scully!"  He closed the solitaire game, but not soon enough to escape her view.  "What are you doing home so early?”"

IWTB Mulder spends his time in isolation productively avoiding his Ph. D.’s thesis paper, gridlocking himself out of re-certification. Scully finally brings the hammer down. 

Pattie’s

Youthful Distraction  

““The smile on her face faded quickly when she turned to see someone sitting behind Mulder's desk. He wore a sweatshirt, loose jeans, and he appeared to be a teen-aged boy.

"May I help you? This is a private office."

"Good," the young man said. "Let's keep it that way. Before you say anything else, just close the door and I can explain. I think." Mulder knew it was going to be a rough time.””

S5 CSM creates a clone to trick Mulder into using de-aging cream, turning him into a teenage. Scully saves him, as usual, and the X-Files are not lost due to this recent doubt of stupidity.

X-Net

““Yes. Uh... Jack. You sound like you grew up here. There's no difficulty with your English."

"Second generation Earth," he said. He sipped his coffee, as the others nodded knowingly. "I was born in Mississippi. Even tried out for Jeopardy once, but... well, you can see why I was turned down."

"Yes," was all I could manage to say. I couldn't imagine America exposed to the sight of a grey on a game show, but perhaps there would be a time when we would overcome that and be more egalitarian.”"

S7 Skinner shocks both his agents with their new assignment: investigate an alien slavery farm. They have surprisingly good English; but the whole situation is so chill and bizarre that Scully ends up creating elaborate conspiracies to justify it while Mulder accepts the facts for what they are.

See Fox Run

““See Fox run. See Fox run after villain.  See Fox lose gun.

Here is Dana.  See Dana run.  See Dana run in big girl shoes.

See Walter.  See Walter sit at his desk. See Dana and Fox sit in frontof Walter's desk. Walter has a big desk.””

Dick-and-Jane-esque narration of Mulder and Scully’s daily activities.  

Thalia D’Muse’s I Lay a Rose Upon Your Grave

““I...I'm sorry it's taken me so long to visit you. I should have been here sooner, but...well, you know how life has a tendency to overwhelm you. You more than anyone know what it's like to live a life against the odds, always wondering what's around the next corner. You had such courage in the face of adversity. I admire you for that.””  

S5 Mulder eulogizes Elvis’s memory for Valentine’s Day. And Scully’s over it.

This is giving me “DD and Gary Shandling's man-crush comedic bit” vibes.

Ten’s (Gossamer) Taco Bell Tails  

““It also looked incredibly dumb. Garfield's Odie brought to life. Queequeg had been an overgrown powderpuff with a tongue, but this one looked like it had been put together all wrong. For one thing, the head seemed very narrow, not allowing for much of a brain. 

Mulder saw that Scully was watching him carefully, so was glad he had kept his opinions to himself. He said, "I won't keep you." Then he remembered. "Oh, since you've got what looks like the live Taco Bell dog, you might like these miniature ones. Here." He slid the talking toys out of the bag, onto the sofa.””

S5 Scully has another dog-- a weird chihuahua-- and Mulder accidentally sets off his feral, protective side over some puppy plushes. 

Girlie_girl7′s 

Of Two Minds

““Scully slides off the bed.  "I'm not Mulder!  You're Mulder and you're here because you've sustained a concussion in the line of duty," then she shakes her head, "and you don't remember any of this do you?"

Mulder stares at his partner.  "Are you the nurse? Because if you are it's highly inappropriate for you to be sitting on my bed.”"

Post The Ghosts That Stole Christmas-- Mulder wakes from a knock on the head with SCULLY’s memories. Scully’s further thrown for a loop by Skinner mildly blaming HER for not just dating already; Maggie swooping in and “adopting” Mulder, and TLG sneering at Mulder’s sneers of their beliefs and conspiracies.

The Love Bug

““Strap do you personally know any of the people that were affected by this love bug."

"Well sir, there's Granville Banger fer one."

Mulder looks surprised.  "He was affected?"

"I guess so.  Ol' Gran never had any inclination to get hitched and then 'bout three years a go this month he met Elsie and fell in love."

Mulder scrunches up his face.  "She wasn't a cow was she?"

"No sir.  She was a big woman but I wouldn't call her no cow."

Post Brand X-- A farmer and his cow, a woman with a James Dean shrine, bunk beds, and limestone highs make for a really trippy case. 

Cornerofmadness‘s 

The Simple Truth  

““Mulder, we can not tell this to Skinner.” Scully watched the blob floating out to sea.

“Why not?” He flopped down in the sand, also studying the waves and the thing moving out against their relentless search for the shore. It looked silly with him in a suit and tie. His camera dangled loosely from its wrist strap. “It's the truth.”

Scully sighed, pinching her nose. “There's the truth, and there's this.”

Post Agua Mala Scully whines about having to tell Skinner that their latest case involved a 15 ft. penguin terrorizing the Floridian coast. Mulder sticks to his principles and reminds Scully of their office poster.   

Of Webs and Flames  

““The heat of the blaze warmed Mulder, and he needed it after being in the forest for so many hours. Of course, much of his chill wasn’t from the early spring evening but rather the fact that the forest had crawled with spiders the size of deer. It had looked like the Mirkwood in there. Next to him Scully leaned on their car, her face illuminated by the dancing flames. Her eyes remained huge, fixed on the forest fire.””

A giant forest-fire is not the reason Mulder and Scully are investigating this latest case-- in fact, he might have set it on fire. Giant spiders and all that. But it’s a great backdrop for Mulder to make his move. 

Sarah Ellen Parsons’s My Constant Touchstone Who Makes Me A Whole Person

““It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, but I knew that this must be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.  I had learned to trust no one, though I still wanted to believe.  But I was tilting at windmills, until you arrived and kept me honest.  Kept me from crucifying myself with my "spooky" behavior, kept me from going off half-cocked with your logic and your devotion to scientific evidence, let me know that I should endeavor to persevere, that my heart will go on.””

Post Amor Fati Mulder likes to embellish “friendship” (and not NOT love) letters to Scully with their best lines, while weaving in some from random movies he’s watched. It’s very him; and isn’t NOT (but not) a confession letter. 

Amy Schatz’s

Take Your Memory With You When You Go

““Scully looked from one side of the room to the other, and then leaned close to him, as if she had a big secret to tell.  Finally, she whispered, "We're not accruing."

She had lost her mind.  Mulder was quite certain of it now.  Something had snapped inside her brain.  Looney Toons weren't just cartoons for her anymore.

"We're not accruing," he repeated, trying to figure out how he would get her to consent to going to a mental hospital.  "Scully, if this is some strange way of getting me to do more of the case reports? or? or your taxes, or something, I think it would be better just to ask me."

But Scully was all business.””

S7 Scully has apparently lost her mind. Mulder is panicking until she points out everything they do has no purpose. After a spiral into their files, they realize not only do they achieve nothing they also repress even more.

Pteropod’s Thirty-four Minutes in the Life of Brain

““Why do you assume I wouldn't just go to the video store on a lonely Friday night and decide to rent it for myself?"

"Is that what happened?"

"Nope."

-- 11:17am --

"Why did you ask?”"

The Life of Brian’s theme song gets stuck in S7 Mulder’s head-- and he shares the ear worm with his on-the-down-low secret girlfriend Scully. It’s all worth it when he gets her to admit she liked the movie. 

Alelou’s (Xanadu) Continuity  

““Doctor:  Not worried that you're carrying an alien baby anymore, then? 

Scully:  Oh well, you know.  Que sera sera.”” 

This is simply a fic lamp shading all the flaws in Per Manum. 

@drbedeliadumaurier/heartsfilthylesson‘s isolated systems (Ao3) 

““Scully,” he says without taking his eyes off his mobile, their pizza cooling on the coffee table. Sometimes she misses his slideshows because they never interrupted dinner. “Look at this.” 

It’s a poorly drawn frog, both human-like and not.... “What’s this?”

The corner of Mulder’s lips curve in one of those I-thought-you’d-never-ask smiles. Scully already regrets it. “It’s a Rare Pepe.”” 

S11 Mulder deadpans about the Pepe Meme conspiracy. Scully’s over it. 

There we go! 

Enjoy!
