Not Everything by Verily (R)
Hi, I'm Logan, and I'll be your driver for The X-Files this month. I apologize for getting started late. Hopefully I can compensate by delivering the goods in a timely manner the rest of the month.
Fandom: The X-Files
Pairing: Krycek Gen, sorta Mulder/Krycek if you squint at it
Author on LJ: unfortunately, no
Author Website: none that I know of
Why this must be read:
Because the dreamlike prose lure you in and keep you riveted. Because Verily's fic is like crack, she writes an honest and unapologetic Alex Krycek, and you can't help but feel for the self-proclaimed rat bastard, even as you learn all the reasons why you shouldn't.
But enough of the fucking introspection. So you've met Krycek. Don't be fooled by that moment in front of the mirror garbage. He really is a rat bastard at heart. If he has a heart. Because not ten minutes after that little self-examination session he went right back to work, gaining Mulder's trust with his right hand, and fucking the man over with his left. Do you want to know what lies he told himself? He told himself that it was for the good of his country. And then later when he knew more, he told himself that it was for the good of his God damned planet. As if he had a personal stake in saving anyone's life but his own. It was so easy for him to kill. So easy to lie, to cheat. Shit. I promised no more introspection. All right. I'll tell you how it all went down.
