I don't often make recs, mainly because I feel like my taste is so subjective--what I like about a story isn't often something that I'm sure will communicate, and I'm willing to tolerate poor writing that hits my narrative kinks, or that does something interesting.

The thing that does annoy me, just a little, is that Scully's fate as a doctor-in-training is left hanging. Now, I know she has obligations to her family, but Scully in my book, whatever day and age would do her damnedest to establish herself as Mulder's equal. But that's just my naive feminist heart, and it is a minor quibble.
I just love how Pru is able to create a snarky, gawky, dorky Mulder voice all the way through. My favorite proposal is the 'suave, 'if you get pregnant'' proposal because BWAH I CAN TOTALLY SEE THAT HAPPENING. Pru gets Mulder's stubborn puppy dog nature like no other writer I know. In fact, I venture to say that Moment in the Sun actually helped me see Mulder differently when I watched the show, because previously I just dismissed him as a hopeless dreamer, who is yanno, such a man when it comes to him just leaving people behind for his own personal quest.
Either way, I'm so totally happy someone loves Moment as much as I do, for exactly the same reasons.
