Dead Tape, by Marguerite (PG) X-Files/West Wing
Fandom: X-Files/West Wing
Pairing: Mulder/Scully
Author Website: Gray Area
Why this must be read:
This story is set post-Three Words, and deals with the bother of coming back from the dead. Marguerite writes both X-Files and West Wing fic, so all of the characters are very well realized and themselves. The story is narrated from President Bartlet's perspective, and it's a great third-person view of Mulder and Scully. The humor is perfect but there's some angst as well. A very satisfying read, even if you're not as familiar with West Wing.
Excerpt:
Bartlet was not in the habit of standing up for guests, but one look at the
heavily pregnant woman was enough to put him on his feet in an instant. She
looked up at him gratefully when he ushered her to the loveseat, but she
insisted on standing until he took the chair opposite her.
He already liked her. From the demure cut of her maternity suit, to the sweep of
her rich, red hair, to the cross she wore at her throat, to the very strength of
her military bearing, he liked her.
It was the guy with her that gave him the crawling willies.
