prompt Gunpowder coconuts and lip gloss
It’s another two hours to Albany.
“Everything north of the Bronx is Canada,” Mulder grouses.
“You’re from New England.” Scully remarks, a map draped over her narrow lap.
“Shut up,” he says, chipper. “Grenades.”
Scully rolls her eyes. “Really? You’re such a boy.”
“You’re such a boy,” he chirps back, in a mocking falsetto. “What do you want? Lip gloss? Tampons? A push up bra?”
“Shut up,” she echoes back. “Fine. The Professor could absolutely have made a coconut grenade.”
Mulder merges left, scoffs. “Where’s he getting the gunpowder, Annie Oakley?”
“Potassium nitrate from guano,” she says, prim. “Turn left in four miles.”
“You need a lot of piss for that,” Mulder observes. He sets the trip odometer.
Scully rolls her eyes. “He can collect that in coconuts too. Honestly, Mulder.”
“Sulfur?”
“You absolutely KNOW Mrs. Howell packed Epsom salts,” Scully says.
“On a three-hour tour?”
“On a three-hour tour. Mulder pull over, that coffee went right through me.”
He does, at a nondescript convenience store with a FOOD MART!!! sign taped to an out-of-order pump. “Don’t forget to save your urine in a coconut,” Mulder calls after her.
There’s not even a break in her stride as she flips him off over one tailored, charcoal shoulder.

I want a story about an Italian vampire.
No romance, no action.
Just 200 pages of “What do you mean, I can’t have garlic? Do you know where I’m from?”

I know "60s housewives who invented slash fanfiction" has taken on a life of its own as a phrase, but Kirk/Spock didn't really exist until the 70s and THOSE WOMEN HAD JOBS. They were teachers and librarians and bookkeepers and scientists and they damn well spent their own money going to conventions, printing zines, buying fanart and making fandom happen. Put some respect on their names.
