I wish I had more to say about this piece, but it was fun and amusing. I loved the Get Smart reference (I feel severe delight when anyone references that series), and the lighthearted tone that was just barely shadowed with the expected angst.

I didn't think his "I love you" was such a big deal except for the fact that he said it. For once. Love can mean a lot of things but I do think it's meaningful that Mulder took the time to try to put words to the feeling, regardless of the drugs or what kind of love he felt at the time for Scully. ;)

I also personally find the episode Triangle to be pretty interesting; it's one of those episodes where you're like, "Well, how should we proceed with this? A figment of his imagination? Reality?" It doesn't quite line up with what is presented in "The Field Where I Died" but Mulder's memory is so good I find it hard to imagine he'd even hallucinate something incorrect.

Anyway, this was a fun take on things. Made me smile at work: a feat, let me tell you.
