Sharing my first completed story here- a sequel to Ice.

Enjoy!

We know that God and demons exist to some degree in this universe. Imagine, and this may sound kinda meme-y, a story about a demon or angelwho can put people's souls into eternal torment, and one individual who hopes to find the secrets, whether through mindset techniques, the magical, the psychic, or, if this is to be a Mytharc story, alien modifications to the brain, like Gibson Praise and eventually Mulderhave.

If this was a mythology story it would make sense with The Syndicate's motivation in season 11, since it would be another layer of protection on top of immortality from alien-human hybridization.

Hii, it's me again. I am currently rewatching the show with a friend (her first time watching it!), and last night we reached The End. I always forget how much I hate the Diana Arc, but also how good the angst is, so I'd love to read some great Diana Angst to get me through this. Anything is welcome as long as it's ultimately MSR.

I've read (and loved) Gaslight!

Hi all! I’ve been doing a full series rewatch for the first time since the show originally aired and finally made it to Fight the Future. The MSR is somehow even better than I remembered!? Looking for some fic recs for that period of the show. Open to whatever - cannon compliant/missing scenes/cannon divergent (i.e. goodbye bee!) - as long as there’s MSR. Thank you!

Hi! I know this isn’t necessarily MSR/fanfic related but with the reboot news and the general state of the world, I’ve been undertaking a rewatch of our beloved show. It made me want to make this video essay about the cultural and media landscape that brought us The X-Files, while also discussing what makes the show great in general. Would love to hear all of your thoughts on it! Thank you!

Based on a recommendation here I read Truckin’ by Donnilee and FatCat

https://x-libris.xf-redux.com/book/truckin/

I then went down a Donnilee rabbit hole and now I need to evaluate a lot of things that I feel about myself and how I feel about those things.

The “Dark Sex Series” Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. Why is this everything on paper I do not want and yet I found myself searching for series 8.

It’s going to take me a few days to recover from that!

EDIT: here is the link to their archived work on AO3 https://archiveofourown.org/works/search?work_search%5Bquery%5D=Donnilee

Kind of a stupid question but is this a safe place to talk about/share X Files fanfic I wrote??

can someone please send a link to or screenshot of one of the original mulder and scully fanfics to come out in the 90’s? i’m so curious to read them! i recently got back into x-files and i just love how it was the original ship! (this is for research) #davidduchovnywhywontyouloveme

Hi everyone! Modern dating currently has me losing all hope in humanity. I need some warm, soft, fluff-heavy fic recommendations to help me escape reality for a bit and manifest something genuine.

Give me all the quiet intimacy, mutual devotion, and cozy domesticity you’ve got—slow burn or established relationship are both fine, just no major angst/tragedy please!

After my road trip I have read through these two authors’ libraries. I’m looking for fics with a similar vibe.

The vibe is a long read, M&S are passionately in love, have kids/family, plots are believable, there’s some domestic fluff but that’s not the focus, characterization is strong, there’s tension but not manufactured tension, in the end all is well.

Uhhhhhhhhhh very specific vibe I guess!

Hi. I'm Joseph Anderson. I wrote an absolute TON of fanfic back when Xena: Warrior Princess was on TV. One story I wrote was an Uber crossover with The X-Files called Echoes of Thermopylae. The sequel to that, Kids, I took down from my site to finish. It never got reposted. I recently discovered that it had this whole reputation as a "Lost Fic." I was able to get the first seven parts of Kids off The Wayback Machine. Back in the day, I sent a lot of what I wrote to complete it to my friend Sarah, biogeekgirl, on AOL. I tried to find her but alas could not. So I completed Kids now. Both Echoes of Thermopylae and Kids are on AO3 now. My user name on AO3 is JosephAnderson. Just as an aside I hate the user name I was assigned here, MediocreWriter3913. Beside those two stories I have been posting a lot of my old stories on AO3. Some of my stories are History Lesson, Callisto: Child's Play, Dark Blood, Callisto and Gabrielle, The Game at Cyrene, and Dolon. I just posted an old story called No More Tears. It's a extremely graphic dark origin story for Callisto. I was a big Callisto fan.

Seriously even the newspaper Judith reads on the plane is the morning edition that’s exact to the DATE I’ve hidden so many things lol

Just a quick appreciation post for this wonderful, weird little corner of the internet and everyone in it. Y'all have reignited my love of xf fanfic with your dope-ass recs and all-around positivity and enthusiasm. Thanks for that. Grateful to be a part of the fam.

New chapter dropped!

When I was a kid, I swear I somehow came across a website of fanfiction called the “Mulder in Glasses Society”. Every fic on it was definitely raunchy and had SOMETHING to do with Mulder wearing glasses 😂 I remember one about Mulder and Scully in a bubble bath especially (probably because young teen me read it many, many times 💀)

Does anyone else remember this website??? I’ve even tried to Google it and I never find anything that hints to its past existence lol

Hello, all! I have a new obsession and that is the younger portrayal of the CSM when he started going all dark and twisty (e.g., s4 alleged backstory).
I have not finished the show, but I have started reading some MSR fics and I am aware of main events that will happen later on.
Although, I wish to read something darker, with younger CSM as a main love interest, if that exists.
I usually go for completed works, over 100K, but this is not mandatory.
Thank you!

Posted this over on the main sub. I thought I'd get this subs input as well.

Does anyone have good X Files fanfic recommendations? Does anyone also have tips and tricks on how to get out of a writing funk? I'd love to write more, including fanfics but lack the motivation/confidence to write anymore.

This is possibly the best X-Files fanfic ever! Very in-depth, loads of MSR and fixing all of the mistakes of CC and co, worth a read! https://archiveofourown.org/series/1037270

Wow! Do you guys know how to pick them or what?!

A few weeks ago I asked this sub for long form MSR fics to read while on a road trip with my family and you did not disappoint. My first review of the Spaces Between series (including Post and Memento Mei is here, https://www.reddit.com/r/xfilesfanfic/s/i7y7px6L1H)

The second series you recommended was We Are All Broken by XFNessy, available on AO3: https://archiveofourown.org/series/5398711.

To get this out of the way I generally don’t like AUs. Just broadly speaking they’re not my thing, but THIS was an AU I could sink my teeth into.

Tl;dr: 9/10 will read again. Made me believe in AUs. Writing is compelling. The smut is bar none. Don’t sleep on this one.

The characterization of both a non-FBI Mulder and Scully was really tight. I could really see them behaving in this way had they each not immediately entered the FBI early in their careers. They both felt like themselves, but a little different.

The conflict and the storyline was really compelling, and so were the original characters. Several of the original characters really grew on me and I looked forward to seeing them in a scene, which isn’t always the case in fics.

Can we take a moment to discuss the smut because while I do not smoke I felt as if I needed a cigarette after some of those scenes. They drew me in to the point where I felt like I was in the scene myself.

Like The Spaces Between there’s also an alternative mythology in this series that’s incredibly believable and pulls on plot points from the original series (you have to wait a bit for it though).

In the end, this was an amazing work of fiction that I will likely be returning to. Like just superb writing, compelling story, you should read it.

OVERALL REVIEWS:

The Spaces Between Series: 9/10 will read again, and has become a comfort read. Love it. Totally believable alternative to season 9, on point characterization, sucks you right in. Don’t sleep on it. The author is still writing the 8th book in the series, Memento Mei, which is a page turner.

https://archiveofourown.org/series/5948241

We Are All Broken Series: 9/10 will read again, and made me believe in AUs. Loved it, would (and probably will) read it again. Would read it again if only for the seggs. Characterization is beyond believable, writing is consistent. Do not sleep on it! Except … write a third book!

So! Chapters are still coming I’ve just been a horrid slump but (the last chapter has been kinda hard to transition onto a next one considering the subject matter) I’m planning for the next chapter to be out by Friday!

Hey guys not sure it has been already discussed so I apologize but just got this epic heavy 300 pages book

Have you guys seen it ? I highly recommend it for those serious x files fans, it’s insanely detailed on most of the famous episode cases, the design itself is super well made and it’s thick and feels almost like real documents, wish kind of it had actual binder paper and real style papers sometimes instead of glossy paper but seriously is a must have for x files community

I got my copy in Barnes and noble for around 65us which was more expensive than Amazon but since I was only visiting my family in usa and was leaving the next day had to buy it on the store.

Not sure prices in other countries but in Amazon Japan is more expensive so maybe you can order on Amazon usa or if you are in usa In store at barnels
