Get Up, Mulder, by Tesla (PG-13)

Fandom: X-Files
Pairing: Mulder/Scully UST
Author Website: It's Just a Cat

Why this must be read:
Scully wants Mulder to get up, but instead he thinks about their long trip back from Antarctica. This is a really fun fic that examines something that a lot of fics and canon itself frequently gloss over - the physical repercussions of the active lives our favorite agents lead. The tension and UST between Mulder and Scully is really perfect here - compelling but not all-consuming. It's one of my favorite post-Fight the Future fics, and I hope y'all enjoy it!

Excerpt:
"Get up, Mulder," Scully was saying. "Get up, now."

Mulder was too warm, too tired to get up.

"Get up, Mulder."

Why wouldn't she let him sleep? She wouldn't like it if he suddenly started pounding on her bedroom door. "There better be a fire, Mulder," she had grumbled one time, when he'd tried to get her out of a hotel room for an early breakfast. Like this fertilizer detail was so urgent.
