I read this over the summer and once in between, and it’s a really sweet story. JET did a good job of using episodes without relying too heavily on them. I especially liked the part with Samantha and Teena Mulder. It was a sweet domestic setting, made even more potent because the readers knows Mulder just saw Samantha in starlight. It a good example of why JET is a good writer, because she lets the story tell you what is going on without directly telling you what is going on.
I didn’t like Scully in this one though. She was too… docile. “I sort of… I want to make love to you tonight.” I like my Scully a little edgy. I love the romance in MSR, but sometimes it makes the characters seem weak. I think that’s just my preference though, not really a critique.
