Story 107: "The Thirty-Sixth" by Jess Mabe

As a follow-up to "Kevin," I thought it would be interesting to post a story that deals with Mulder's spirituality. "The Thirty-Sixth" is an excellent story, which Jess said is "about faith, religion and sainthood." It's also about love. And knitting.

Okay, okay. I still don't like the jealousy angle--hated it on the show as well--and I thought some of the banter was a shade sub-standard. ("bad guys?") But this kind of difference of opinion can't really be resolved.

I did like what you said about the weaving of fate and the connection to Scully's knitting. And that she was knitting while she waited for Mulder to wake up. Maybe it will all shake down better for me if I reread.

Oddly, I think I'd prefer to reread "The Other Man." Now *that* doesn't sound like me at all. If I talk about going back to "The Wasteland" you'll know to send the paramedics.
