the last line. every line. maybe not quite 'my' mulder, but way, way too close to 'my' mulder. that's what it always is, i think, with fanfic horror. it's not that the characters are 'your' characters. but that they could be. they're so close already, if you tilt your head and hold your breath they just...line...right...up.
oh my god, this fic. *goes off to hyperventilate*
ETA: wendelah1 what's the general policy/preference on swearing in this comm. because my honest response to this story was a rather Detective Mannersian, 'holy banking bleep'. and it's not as though swearing is really all that communicative in the typical sense. no one in the comm is going to benefit from my potty mouth. but i was thinking how at that moment, pretending i really wanted to say anything else was kind of selling the story short.
