Zomg, "Amor Fati" right there at the end. Guh, a favorite Mulder/Scully moment of mine! Kudos to you on this awesome fic.

That's right! Thanks so much! I was very nervous about posting it... obviously. Whew

:)

great dialogue! i liked that he came to the hospital just to talk to her and she caught him - way to still be a stalker, house :] i think you have a good handle on writing them - especially wilson :] and it will improve as you continue (hopefully!) to write more fic. the only concrit i can give is the one thing my first beta told me that stuck with me: when you write dialogue, don't leave it hanging; SHOW me what you see them doing when you let me HEAR what they are saying. eg.,

"I hate you!"

vs.

"I hate you!" she screamed, tears streaming down her face as she pushed away from his embrace.

Thanks! This is precisely the problem I have. I'm used to scripts, like I said, and we're taught to purposefully shy away from that type of description. Let the actor act, they always say.

I always thought I could write some pretty bang-up dialogue if someone else wanted to write the rest of it :). It's the rest of it that gives me pause.

If inspiration strikes, I will write again, and will try to be more descriptive. I appreciate the concrit! Thanks for reading!

Very sweet, Love it.

knowing what we know now, I take your script over the actual script ;)

A positive, non-cynical way of starting season 6: no wonder Shore & Co. would never go for it. Thanks for offering a better version.
