Lovely babe, but are you going to take this long next time?

Nope, surely not - but I really want to do the remix, so you're in when I do it? And now searching for the next song. I already have a back-up choice, but maybe I'll luck out with S5.

Aw, c'mon it's S4 - so much fun and awesomeness combined. Oh, you mean me ranting randomly about music? Heh.

Like always, the words seem to fail me when I really need them...
Just want to say that I really, really love your video and I really, really love the song you chose!
This was a sad season for Scully, huh...

Anyway, thank you so much for sharing! I took the download (extra thanks for that!).

Glad you loved the vid. I really adore the cancer arc and how it played out in Season 4. It was so emotionally challenging for Scully and I really connected to how she tried to handle it with grace and dignity. I always felt that she did isolate herself on purpose, because for her it were too many emotions to parse. She tried to take a step back, sort it out for herself and not burden Mulder too much, because he's fragile and very self-destructive.

I absolutely agree.
The cancer arc was an amazing storyline and gave GA an opportunity to really shine. Those were some of the best episodes the show ever made.
I have to admit that I didn't really understand Scully isolating herself when I first watched the season. (I think I was too young.)
But by now, having had my own experiences and re-watching the show, I only really got just how scared Mulder was of losing her. And just how much she tried to not let her sickness show.

Sorry, real life kept me busy.

Yeah, I agree about the amazingness of this arc and how GA played it. I always connected deeply with how Scully handled the news. That they switched the air dates of 'Never again' and 'Leonard Betts' made everything even tighter for me emotionally. It gave her a reason to act out and process Betts' announcement, before confirming it.

Scully knew that losing her could kill Mulder, putting that knowledge on top of everything else, what was going on inside her, was a crushing weight. That Mulder contemplated suicide at the end of S4 (shown in the beginning of S5) while she was still alive, made it clear, that he would need a compelling reason to go on without her. And maybe the truth alone wouldn't cut it this time.
