I love the universe you've crafted, and I admire how well it stands for the length of the piece...It can be so hard to maintain an AU and you did wonderfully. I also love how old characters are woven into a fresh plot.

Thank you for this. It was a joy to read.

Thank you so much! I love AU's and haven't ever attempted to write one before so I'm pleased to hear I succeeded. It means a lot.

I'm glad you recognized some of our old friends here and there. I figured that the gravity of Mulder and Scully would just be too much and they'd find themselves drawn together with all their mysteries no matter what.

I'm really glad you liked it and thanks for the absolutely wonderful feedback. I appreciate it.

Yaaaay! Team awesome are where they should be! \o/

I really enjoyed how you wove this all together... Even with the Samantha clones at the fertility centers.

I wonder how Krycek dealt with Tooms... But then I guess that would have actually been the BCU and Mulder anyway.

See, you totally got me thinking about the whole structures of things. More questions than answers at the end = great X-files story, right?

They'll always end up together (in my book). Their gravity is just too strong, it'll always pull them together ( ... )

I love how well you've managed to weave in so many of the mythology elements as backstory here. And it sets Scully up in such an interesting place when she comes to the X-files.

Great story!

Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm glad you liked it. I adore A/U's, even the ones that have no resemblance to the X-Files universe, which this one was supposed to be in its original incarnation. But, I couldn't help myself after I began writing it. I"m so glad it worked.

Thank you for reading!

I really enjoyed this! I love that you managed to keep Mulder and Scully in character and that the canon dynamic was still there but in a universe turned upside down and sideways. I don't suppose you plan on any follow-up stories in this universe?

I hate to admit this, but I actually still owe a story to someone and I'm hoping to write an alt-version of a 1st season story in this universe. But, we'll see what happens.

Scully now will come at the X-Files in a slight different way and it'll be fun to play with those consequences.

Anyway, thank you for reading! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!! Made my day :)

Ooh, I really liked this. I can't pretend I wouldn't love to see more of their continuing adventures, but I really enjoyed what I've seen so far. Fantastic story.

Thank you so, so, so much! I had a fun time writing it. Of course now, when I re-read it I see so many little things I want to change and tweak and alter and you know!

Thank you so much for reading and commenting - warms the cockles of my heart and all.
