I did. I'm not sure how I feel about it myself actually (!) though it felt like the right ending for the story. Was the warning ok? I was posting from my phone as I've moved and have no internet in the house, so I couldn't do a warning with the words blanked out (if that makes sense-I can't think of the right term) otherwise I'd have been a bit more explicit.

I was also half tempted to kill off William too, but thought I'd better leave Scully with something! I would love to read the AU you have in your brain if you ever write it. It's a surprisingly hard thing to do though, I found at least, even knowing I could write a few different versions of this where he lives.

I just want to say that the diminishing woodpile and Mulder preparing for the winter and the apocalypse(and still not really being prepared. How can you prepare adequately?) and for what Mulder knew was coming is all too believable.

Thank you. I wanted to get that sense of the end of the world being inevitable, but that they'll still try and prepare for it because doing nothing is just impossible. Section 2 is definitely my favourite in this piece.
