Legend of the Perfect Union by JRF Patton (PG-13)
Hey,
It's![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
comice, aka Anjou, back with another tale of Mulder and Scully ... and this time, it's a casefile.
Fandom: The X-FILES
Pairing: Mulder/Scully
Author on LJ: unknown
Author Website: unknown
Why this must be read:
This long, complicated casefile features great conversations about faith vs. reason, one of the major motifs of the X-Files. Set toward the latter end of the seventh season, the story expands upon the differences between the two partners as they tackle first a gruesome murder mystery, and then a metaphysical mystery that they stumble into because of the wedding of one of Scully's childhood best friends. The themes of trust and the true meaning of their partnership underlie all of their interactions.
Legend features a world-weary Scully who isn't sure where exactly her faith lies, and a Mulder in full profiler mode who is determined to find it and her, and forge a new partnership.
This is a long, but richly layered read, so settle in and enjoy.
Dana Scully stopped rummaging around the chest. "Because Amanda Chase is a dear friend and being there when she marries is important to me. Being there for you is only mildly interesting because it's Holy
Trinity."
"What if this is the one, Scully? What if your friend's marriage is the one so blessed by God that the rays of heaven burn the couple's image into the rock of the altar floor."
"That is exactly why I said no. This is not an X-File. This is my friend's wedding. My whole family will be there. My aunt, my mother's cousins...." She pictured Mulder trying to blend with walls. Worse, she envisioned his debating virgin birth with her Aunt Minnie. She shuddered. "No." Scully discovered a green blanket folded in with a quilt and pulled it out of the bottom of the chest. It smelled like mothballs. The chest lid slammed and she started out the door again.
He did not follow this time. At the apartment door she stopped and put her hand on her hip. "Are you coming?"
"I'm thinking about it," Mulder said.
"It's just a legend, a myth."
"Like transubstantiation?"
Scully glared. "Are you going on this stake-out with me?"
"I'm thinking about it," Mulder said.
