SWEET BABY JESUS ON A SKATEBOARD

I cannot even tell you how much GLEE this has filled me with. I was JUST thinking I needed an X-Files/Sanctuary crossover fic in my life, and THIS is ABSO-FUCKING-LUTELY fantastic.

and no longer being required by a government salary to run toward the sounds of insanity, she heads in the opposite direction YOU PERFECT HUMAN BEING

two since she last saw Mulder and one and a half since she arrived at the Sanctuary and officially joined the other team Not gonna lie, I became ridiculously excited when I read this sentence. THIS IS THE DREAM.

And Helen and Scully passing out together on the same bed? YESPLEASE. Unnnffff.

Also you have a knack for sneaking this really great, deadpan, sorta dry humor into your writing and man, it works so well espesh for Dana Scully.

You should, you know. Write more of this. (PLEASE?)

Everything in my life needs to begin with "SWEET BABY JESUS ON A SKATEBOARD." Fact.

Thank you!

man, it works so well espesh for Dana Scully. I think she's one of the few people who would treat this like "Monsters, alright, no big deal, anyone mind if I eat dinner first?"

WOOT! Love Scully and love Helen so this was great! I like the way you put the X Files Apocalypse storyline in there, the two universes mesh surprisingly well. And I can't really think of a better place for Scully to end up. (Glad you ditched that asshole Mulder tho, dana's too good for him, even if he is good looking).

Thank you!

the two universes mesh surprisingly well. I have this theory that at one point Mulder and Scully did end up wandering into Sanctuary territory but it was either a deleted scene or an entire script cut to make room for yet another black oil ep.

I really enjoyed this. Great job of blending the two worlds in a way that makes sense. Go, you! :)

SWEET BABY JESUS ON A SKATEBOARD (as per your wishes ;-D)

This was absolutely perfect. Everything I wanted it to be! I think that Helen and Scully would fit in together well. Scully is like Will, only interesting (sorry, Will fans) and this would be an awesome way of getting them together. And even if they were just platonically in bed together, we all know it's just a matter of time. ;-D

:D

Yay! I'm so glad. I've actually never written Helen or Scully before (bad fangirl, bad), so really had no idea when you prompted if I could even make this work.

Scully is like Will, only interesting Yes, this. She's everything Will should be and yet isn't.

Thank you!

You did a great job! :D

Yeah, Scully has backstory, outside interests, etc. Will is just a cipher. We should know so much more about him by the end of Season Three.

This is absolutely perfect.

You got Scully just right, and you made me miss her, and I think the scenario you created is totally believable, all the 'little' pieces about Scully and Mulder and the apocalypse. (I must now start watching Sanctuary.)

Again, excellent!

Thank you very much!

all the 'little' pieces about Scully and Mulder and the apocalypse

:) I couldn't not include him somehow.

If you start with the current episode of Sanctuary, you might end up irrevocably confused (especially since I've no idea what the last three episodes of the season will potentially reference), so I'd suggest starting at the beginning. Such a wonderful show.
