You already know I think this is excellent! Creative, interesting, and quite angsty of course.

[hankmoodyblues]

Thanks! I can't seem to write anything not angsty.

[mack_the_spoon]

And that's really okay by me. :-)

I haven't read XF fic in a while, but the title (and author!) drew me in. And a touch of nostalgia...ah, season 1...

Nicely done. Great plausibilities (hee), crisp writing, the angst of course. Love the little twist in #8, cleverly worded. #4, ouch.

Kudos.

[hankmoodyblues]

Aw, thanks. Appropriate icon, by the way!

I can't get away from the angst! Glad you enjoyed, though.

[hankmoodyblues]

Thanks! The first two or three came to me quite quickly but the others took a while longer.

This is a lovely, sad little meditation on what might have been. Great work - thanks for it.

[hankmoodyblues]

Thank you for reading!

Enjoyed it a lot. Now we'll endlessly speculate on who Scully might in marrying in no.8.

[hankmoodyblues]

Thank you. I actually didn't think about who she might be marrying but speculate away, by all means!

[sangria_lila]

Yay! So there's room for her to change her mind, turn back and jump into Mulder's car.

[hankmoodyblues]

I suppose there is, if you want to view it like that!
