A World to Save by Geb (R)
Fandom: THE X-FILES
Pairing: Fox Mulder/Dana Scully
Length: 8,000 words
Author on LJ: n/a
Author Website: Author's Page at Gossamer
Why this must be read: Since "Flightless" was already recced here, I decided I should give Geb's "A World to Save" a try. I am so glad that I did. This is one of the best post-col stories I have ever read in this fandom. Her Scully is strong, brave and pragmatic, fighting to save her son, fighting to save her world. Geb's world-building makes sense of the wacky TXF canon, the brief glimpses of Mulder and Scully's relationship feel right and true, the ending is not without hope. The version posted at Gossamer has formatting issues so I've archived it at Fugues.
If you must have Mulder and Scully's son carry the name of William, be warned--he doesn't. This story was written in 1998. It's amazing how much Geb anticipated canon. And improved on it.
