Ardent Hope by ArtemisX5 (R)
Fandom: THE X-FILES
Pairing: Mulder/Scully
Length: 1,700 words
Author on LJ: unknown
Author Website: ArtemisX5's gossamer page
Why this must be read: Scully: not as innocent as advertised.
The summary makes me crack up and want to sing "Oops I Did It Again," but I love the premise. How far will Scully go to have a baby? Lies, sex, secrets and a fertility monitor-stealthily purchased with cash. Mmmm. I really like the way ArtemisX5 uses words and dashes, as you can see from the snippet below. Nice snappy style.
Snapshot of Scully's imaginary Falls-at-Arcadia-without-the-garbage-monster family:
Proud-yet motherly-Scully balances dazzling career at FBI with raising child skillfully and tenderly. Adorable, well-behaved and colic-free William balances dazzling intellect (inherited from the unique meeting of his parents gametes) with a childish sense of wonder to the delight of family, friends and strangers alike. Loving and emphatically present Mulder balances newly fulfilling career as daddy with the overwhelming desire to worship the source of his new-found happiness-i.e. Better Homes and Gardens-like family-his intrepid partner of nine years.
Christ, when had she started to think of herself as Scully? More importantly, when had she reverted to the intellect of a fourteen year-old girl?
