Why this must be read: Jintian wrote this story entirely from Scully's point-of-view, which makes the story feel even more intimate and immediate. She created an interesting and believable back-story for Scully, a fascinating and creepy X-File and wonderful characterizations of Mulder and Scully, along with a delightful repeat appearance of Detective Kresge, from the episode "Emily". She created a Bill Scully who isn't a hateful jerk, but is instead a guy who loves his sister and wants the best for her. You know, like Mulder loves his sister. I loved this story the first time I read it, and I believe you will as well. If you do, save it. You will want to read it again and again.
EDIT:Unfortunately, since I originally wrote this entry, the site owner has blocked the Internet Archive, thereby preventing anyone from viewing the content. I do have a copy of "God's Breath" on my hard drive. My hope is that eventually
hesychasm will allow her stories to be archived again so that readers can enjoy them.Some stories do have happy endings. Jintian has since archived her fanfiction at Dreamwidth.
