i think a major thing that is overlooked in the x files is that when they do their little cutscene of them driving from washington dc to the bumfuck middle of nowhere at the start of each episode, their roadtrips must be SO long. so what are they doing in that time? are they fighting over which radio station to listen to? filling the silence with conversation? is that how they become inseparable, over mind-numbing hours on the road where stories slip off of the tongue with ease?

#i HATE road trips so this is baffling to me #like at first it HAD to be awkward. what the hell do you say at first. but then it happens again and again.#are they chatting? getting to know each other? debating cryptids? talking about life?#are they putting on music? taking turns flipping the stations between what they like and the other person likes? do they bring CDs?#there's no way they have a mutually compatible music taste i just know they drive each other up a wall with that #in all honesty i think they're probably listening to NPR because they seem like that type of nerdy intellectual. and talking about that.#but with THAT MANY HOURS in the car like. you have to come up with SOMETHING to do.#maybe they'll address that later on idk i'm only 10 episodes in but the thought is making me laugh #txf #the x files
