YES YES THATS SO RIGHT!! I love this! (also hate it cuz her situation wasnt good and chris carter is the [most wonderful] menace to society and i hate him too [affectionately kind of])
hey i saw your post abt lyric screenshots and my mind immediately went "what song would they do for an unruhe screenshot"
Tumblr media
I debated on what song to use for this one. To be honest, I couldn’t really find anything within my library that fit 100%. However!!! Scully being a victim to men throughout the show has always struck a chord in me (bc same girlie) and it always made me think of artists like Ashnikko, Banshee, and ZAND. (Definitely check them out if y’all can relate.)
I ended up using You Make Me Sick! — Ashnikko!

for those asking for the footage, i found this on a quote website, idk where the footage is :(
X-Files quotes: RL
"In {Talitha Cumi} when Mulder comes busting into the office, he's so irritated, my line to him was, 'Cool down, Mulder, just cool down'. I couldn't say it. I don't know if you remember much of 'West Side Story', but the song where they go, 'Cool boy, Crazy boy'. They do this whole dance. Mulder comes in and I go, 'Cool down, Mulder.' Then I go, 'Cool boy. Crazy boy' and start singing it, and then he starts singing it. Then the two of us started doing the dance from it. It was pretty hilarious. They had to finally strike the line because we couldn't do it without breaking into dance." MITCH PILEGGI, FROM INTERVIEW IN X-POSE OCTOBER, 1996

from "A Less Certain World" by sarah_segretti on Ao3
"But the more I think about it, the more I believe -"
My breath catches just to hear her say the word. She notices. "The more I believe that Someone's got to be behind it all."
"Someone who doesn't smoke, I hope."
"Mulder, you're going to burn in hell," she says mildly.
~
i love these lines. i love when mulder makes jokes that scully thinks are funny but she chooses to call him out for his fucked up sense of humour rather than laugh.
(this is from an AMAZING post biogenesis fic btw)

The live Krycek reaction the first time he sees Mulder and Scully together in the Quantico morgue is *chefs kiss* SO FUNNY
Mulder walking into the morgue so happy to see her but also keenly aware that he’s toting along an imposter and Scully won’t like it
Mulder being like half a mile in front of Krycek like the door fully shuts between Mulder and Krycek walking in
The way Scully’s face immediately drops the second she spots Krycek
Krycek hanging back until Mulder introduces him??? Like my guy already knew he wasn’t invited.
Mulder hesitating telling Scully he and Krycek are “working the case together.” Not partners. Just “working the case together.”
Scully making every indication that she’s going in for a handshake just to cold shoulder him THE WOMAN YOU ARE
Krycek’s FACE when he gets cold-shouldered 😂
Mulder also immediately ditching him to follow on Scully’s heels like the good little trained puppy he is uwu
Krycek turning to see the body: *immediately wants to throw up* (in hindsight, I think this was an act, but it’s HILARIOUS to think this is his first stiff)
Classic synced-up Mulder and Scully leveling Krycek with the most unimpressed looks you can get
Mulder fully turning to face Scully (the man’s shoulders are entirely perpendicular to the table), which also entirely blocks Scully from Krycek (this is the kind of shit you read in fic when Character A shields Character B with their body I’m hnng)
His apologetic look because they’re both already sick of this guy
*continues to scream about the tiny bubble he created for them to share*
Scully’s body language being a bit more closed off (girl fair if my ex-partner who I’m in love with showed up to my new job with a new FBI partner man I would want to appear nothing short of entirely emotionless and professional, too)
Fox “I do not gaze at Scully” Mulder hella gazing at Scully as she literally talks about the dead guy lying on the table right next to them.
Fox “hehe I love when my doctor talks forensics to me” Mulder coming in with some hella heart eyes
The way Krycek slinks into the frame but Mulder and Scully are entirely ignoring him. By choice or by “we’re so enraptured by each other the entire rest of the universe may as well not even exist” is up to you. My favorite option changes depending on my mood.
Until Krycek butts in with the very helpful “there was no fire 😐” like thanks Einstein
Mulder and Scully going straight back to ignoring him 🥰
I’m so obsessed with the camera angle change to be over Krycek’s shoulder because even though you can see him in the shot he’s completely erasable. Like cropping your ex out of social media pics. AND the zoom just slowly does exactly that: shunt him out of frame 😂 he literally goes ENTIRELY out of the frame as the camera zooms on Mulder and Scully standing facing directly at one another with maybe a foot of space between them
And THEN the camera cuts to a shot of Krycek where it’s focused on him (but he’s still framed by Mulder and Scully) and it’s just… THEE “live Krycek reaction” shot. He’s the “live ___ reactions BLUEPRINT. He’s been entirely extraneous this entire scene but they gave him a shot JUST FOR THAT.
Cut back to Mulder and Scully getting progressively closer as Scully starts to whisper her diagnosis because she feels insecure making her deductions in front of someone who isn’t her spooky-loving boyfriend.
Amazing. Just incredible. *chef’s kiss* indeed

I watched the X Files for the first time & no one has really been able to accurately portray the vibes of that show. like i feel like i went into this show completely unspoiled because all i knew was "Aliens???", which, yes. but also this is about the intricate dance between a man and a woman who are coworkers, where the man keeps getting abducted by aliens & the woman finds that a little bit charming. it's a complex dynamic.
first of all. skully? WOW. what a woman. every time she's on screen she takes my breath away, from her hair to her face to her voice to her lips...there is no one like her. they just don't make SHOWS like this anymore!!!!! they really don't.
