Summary
“Thanks,” she tells him quietly, meeting his eyes for a flicker of a moment.
Mulder nods in response because Scully, I think I might drown this city in jet fuel and spark a match to keep you warm does not seem appropriate. Lucky him, he’s an old pro at concealing unwelcome, flashgun thoughts.

Summary
A Christmas story that begins with Mulder & Scully exchanging gifts at the end of 'How the Ghosts Stole Christmas', and continues through to the events of Tithonus.
"Scully hadn’t been sure whether to come here tonight. She hadn’t been sure whether she’d give him the gift she’d purchased, weeks ago. She never knows how to pick the level of intimacy, the level of care and the expense, when she buys him gifts. His gifts to her pitch and yaw with a speed and intensity that is entirely unpredictable. One Valentine’s day early in their partnership, he left a dozen red roses and a large box of fancy chocolates on her desk, and brushed off her thanks with a dismissive “Got ‘em at Lost and Found.” There was the Apollo 11 keychain, when she was ill. He’d written it off as just a “cool keychain,” but she’d believed in the meaning she’d found in it, and treasured it ever since as if it were sentimental jewelry."

Summary
Mulder and Scully take part in an undercover operation, and Mulder learns something about Scully's feelings for him. Takes place in season 6, shortly after The Unnatural.
"He wonders if she’ll find that freeing, knowing that he won't be listening, and no one they know will be listening. In general, they save the truest things for each other. *We neither of us perform to strangers.* But today it might be helpful to perform to an audience of strangers who will soon forget her words."
This is a completed story; Chapter 2 will be posted in the next few days.
