Dreamland? by Amanda (PG-13)

Fandom: X-FILES
Pairing: Mulder/Scully UST
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: Gossamer page
Why this must be read:

Sometimes you just need a fun read. This bodyswap story has fun aplenty, as Mulder and Scully try to stand in for one another and mostly fail miserably. With amusing commentary on gender roles along the way.

Scully bristled and narrowed her eyes almost imperceptibly in her partner's general direction as he fumbled with heaps of files. "Perhaps, *Spooky*," she said icily, "if you bothered separating the goat-sucking, fat-slurping, pituitary/liver/tumor-eating, inbreeding, cow-ensanguinating, organ-harvesting, genderbending, hokey-pokeying, cerulean blue necrophiliac files" - her voice was steadily rising in intensity as the temperature in the room dropped degree by degree and Mulder turned his back to the overflowing cabinet that had been the focus of his attention a few seconds earlier to stare at Scully in something akin to shock - "from the smallpox-carrying, embryo-stealing, cigarette-smoking, pesticide-spraying, bounty-hunting, cockroach-crunching conspiracy files in the first place..." She paused to breathe and watched as a small mountain of files began their descent from the top of the cabinet and her partner tried - unsuccessfully and with considerably less grace than usual - to catch them. She smirked. "Then perhaps you wouldn't be looking quite so foolish right now."
