Summary
Special Note: I still can’t quite believe this collaboration actually happened—msrafterdark agreeing to create a piece inspired by one of my fanfictions is something I’ve dreamed about for a long time.
A sincere thank you to her, not only for taking the time to read the work, but for bringing it to life in such a beautiful and intimate way. The artwork she created is truly stunning (like all of her work), and I’m incredibly grateful for her talent and generosity.
To everyone reading, I hope you enjoy this fic, and that you love the breathtaking image she made for it as much as I do.
Summary: Mulder and Scully are in the early months of their now-intimate relationship. After a life defined by solitude and an all-consuming devotion to his work, Mulder is beginning to learn what it means to set it aside—not just in theory, but in practice—and to understand, for the first time, what truly comes first when work and love compete for his attention.

Summary
Tumblr has seen fit to change its TOS policies regarding "adult" content, and unfortunately that means a lot of the intimate illustrations I've done over the years are no longer allowed. AO3 will now be the new home for these fan drawings.
Generally everything in this set is MSR, unless otherwise indicated. Please do *NOT* share or post these drawings elsewhere.

Summary
“Move,” Mulder orders, his voice low and gravelly, wrapping a large hand around Scully's bicep and pulling her aside.
She struggles against him, mentally reviewing the profile, desperate to think of a way to stop this. The other victims hadn’t been violent for violence’s sake. Reduced to their basic instincts, they had fallen back to protect what they had considered theirs.
She needs to get Mulder out. And as much as she hates appearing weak, she knows exactly how to do it. She knows exactly what Mulder considers his.

aka the one where mulder is drugged and reduced to his basic instincts, and no one needs three guesses to figure out who those instincts get directed towards

Summary
“Sleeping together with other individuals offers a variety of advantages, including protection from predators and buffering against cold nighttime temperatures… The availability and quality of each position within the sleep site depends on the choices made by other group members.”
-the Max Planck Institute of Animal BehaviorOR
In which Scully and Mulder begin sleeping over to provide comfort, and then begin sleeping over for other reasons.
(Updated to add a tag or two and lyk that it's complete.)

Summary
Over six years, 42 Hegel Place had changed. Mulder’s bachelor pad had been rearranged, reflecting his mercurial moods. Since his brain had been lobbed into by their enemies, Scully was spending more time there than ever; influencing its arrangement. It is where they both retreated at the end of a long week.
Their Friday movie-routine, however, becomes disrupted when Mulder starts “accidentally” leaving his adult films in the VHS player for Scully to find.
Was he trying to shock her, inspire interest, or tell her about himself?
