Finding Our Way Back
After thirteen years of their romantic relationship, Mulder becomes ensnared in the dark realm of his personal quest for truth and his obsessions, all the while descending into the grips of depression. Despite Scully’s earnest pleas for him to seek help, Mulder finds himself unable to extricate himself from this abyss. Consequently, Scully feels compelled to make the difficult decision to leave him.
One year later, Skinner contacts them with the hope that they will contribute their expertise in addressing a mounting array of paranormal cases. Despite being separated throughout this period, Mulder and Scully both agree to undertake the temporary assignment. During their collaboration, they endeavor to rediscover the paths leading back to each other.
This fic takes off during season 10, but it deviates away from the William arc. This story is about Mulder and Scully finding their way back to each other.
My notes:
This is just so much better than the revival. No CC mythology/William garbage, this is all about Mulder and Scully’s journey back to each other after Mulder got lost in his darkness.
