Yours and wendelah1’s recommendations and mine have a number in common: Arizona Highways (which absolutely merits its “fandom classic” designation), “The Mill,” “And If I Make My Bed in Sheol,” “Telephones,” Oyster, Justin Glasser’s stories in general, The Other Man.
“Much Madness Is Divinest Sense” (http://archiveofourown.org/works/78598) by Naraht. S3 sometime after “Wetwired.” → warnings: disabling mental illness, suicidality, and suicidal act. → from my notes: “One of my all-time favorite works in the fandom, with perfectly depicted moments and realistic characterizations.”
Resurgam (http://ioho.org.uk/resurgam_nc17.txt) by Ophelia. S7; “Emily” central to story. → xf_book_clubdiscussion (http://xf-book-club.livejournal.com/21387.html).
“Loss of Yesterday” (http://hesychasm.dreamwidth.org/2970.html) by Jintian. S2 between “Firewalker” and “Irresistible.” → xf_book_clubdiscussion (http://xf-book-club.livejournal.com/68842.html), where I also posted my impressions. I love this work. → warnings: possibility of past rape/sexual assault indicated but not in any detail.
“Butterfly” (http://oracle.invidiosa.com/butterfly.html) by Oracle. S2, “Excelsis Dei” post-ep. → xf_book_clubdiscussion (http://xf-book-club.livejournal.com/37496.html) and amyhit’s meta: “Femininity and Fanfiction: A Meagre Foray into the Fandom Wilds of Gender Disparity, Gender Equity, and the Epic Hoax of the Emotionally Supine Woman.” (http://amyhit.livejournal.com/77905.html) → warnings: none yet. I began “Butterfly” after encountering amyhit’s meta, both to familiarize myself with the source material and because she referred to Scully’s experiences therein as “narcoleptic,” which they are so far. (How much narcolepsy-related fic is out there, you know? It’s niche.) I’m still reading it.
“Of Ladies Most Deject and Wretched” (http://www.invidiosa.com/circe/fanfic/ofladies.html) by Circe Invidiosa & Helen Quilley. S7, “Orison” post-ep. → warnings: as for “Orison.”
“Living with the Dreaming Body” (http://ioho.org.uk/livingdream.htm) by Punk Maneuverability. S5 sometime after “Emily.” → xf_book_clubdiscussion (http://xf-book-club.livejournal.com/55570.html).
“Reflections as the Light Begins to Fade” (http://archiveofourown.org/works/35410) by Amilyn (Amy L. Hull). S3, “Paper Clip” post-ep.
“Five Things That Never Happened to Dana Scully” (http://anythingbutgrey.livejournal.com/791475.html) by anythingbutgrey (not to be confused with the work of the same name by threeguesses). → wendelah1’s rec (http://wendelah1.dreamwidth.org/217857.html).

Comfortably Numb (http://www.keyofx.org/fiction_Paige%20Caldwell-Comfortably%20Numb.txt) by Paige Caldwell. S6 sometime after “Tithonus.” → warnings: substance abuse/addiction.
