Blood and Breath by RivkaT (R)
Fandom: THE X-FILES
Pairing: Scully/Mulder, Scully/Skinner
Author on LJ:
rivkat
Author Website: The Disenchanted Kingdom
Why this must be read: I remember the day Rivka first posted to the XF lists. Back then, we didn't have a clue who RivkaT was, but we learned. Oh, we learned. If a fic's got her name on it, it'll be smart, competent, and most likely painful. Rivka writes angst like a kick to the head, and her Mulder/Scully relationships are never easy and always the opposite of romantic.
Here she takes on the season four mytharc, with all the bees, shapeshifters, and conspiracies a girl could want. This is a Scully story with lots of science and angst. It starts post-Gethsemane, when she's dying, and Mulder's dead.
The funeral had been the most tasteful event Fox Mulder had ever been at the center of.
Christina Mulder had refused to allow an autopsy, had insisted on a traditional Jewish burial. There would be no embalming, only the quick rotting that Washington's swampy climate guaranteed. Dana knew Mulder didn't consider himself Jewish, had rejected both his father's faith and his mother's, but funerals were about the living and if Mulder had wanted to keep God out of his death he should have left a note.
This copy has some messy line-breaks, but please don't let that stop you from reading: Blood and Breath
