Story 266: "Dr. Scully's School for Exceptional Boys" by prufrock's love

A couple of months back on the "Silver Cornet" post, I asked members if anyone was still reading here. Would you believe I'm still getting comments on that post? Well, I am, most recently just a couple of days ago. A kind anon replied: "Yes! I'm new, and I'm HERE! Love this place! Don't ever quit. 😄" It was sweet, it cheered me up, and it reminded ( Read more... )

Thank you so much for this rec. I'd never have found this exceptional story on my own. I've been reading and rereading some of the classics but have no idea where to find newer stories.

I was riveted by this story, heartbroken for Mulder and cheering for his chance for a "normal" life. I could not guess how it was going to end and was delighted with the way it did. Superb.

Thanks again for the rec. Where can I find more by this author?

Thank you for commenting. Readers make me happy. ♥

I'm glad you enjoyed the story. I was also surprised by how the story ended but in a good way. I think it leaves room for a sequel, too, which would make me very happy. I'm working out my own thoughts and will post them later today or tomorrow.

It is difficult to find new fic, even more difficult to find good new fic in this fandom. Mimic117, who is hosts some of prufrock's fic for her, made announcements about this fic at The X-Files Lost and Found and at Haven. If you are not a member of Haven, apply. It is still a hub for X-Files fans who ship Mulder and Scully.

Where to find more fic by prufrock's love. She reposted some of her most popular stories to Gossamer a few years back. Since some of them were revised, I'd read those first. We discussed "SN 1572" (a reworking of "Negative Utopia" here and there is a link on that post. We have discussed many of her fics. I am an unabashed prufrock's love fangirl. The rest of her old fic can be found on her old geocities site, though I ( ... )

wait, are you saying Syntax6 has posted 2 stories to Fanfiction.net that she DIDN'T post to her own website??? I've been allowing myself to read her longer stories only sparingly, saving them up if you will, and would love to see more. And of course I need to read Scavenger, whenever/however I can (when does it come out??)...

No, all of the stories she wrote as Syntax6 are on her website. For some reason she posted them to FF.net as well. But she also wrote as Hannah Mason, and Pink Flamingo (Apex) and perhaps other AKAs.

The new book has no firm date as yet.

So if I search Gossamer or AO3 is there anything posted there under those other names, or is it only at FF.net, or? Sorry, and thanks!

I believe Hannah Mason's fic is at Gossamer. "Apex" is a short story and it is at her site already. She doesn't have an account at AO3.

Also. I am adding you to the roster so that your comments post unscreened. (The community settings screen non-members as spam prevention). If that doesn't work, request membership (assuming you want it) and I'll approve you.

If that updated 22 chapter fic is "This is How the World Ends" by Solia, it is freaking fantastic. She took about a month off but has gotten back onto it and it's easily my favorite season 10 AU yet.
