instead of fic, how about some recs

Okay, so.  I had this great idea this morning for a pre-season 10 "why/how did Mulder and Scully break up" story and I really want to work on it, but this afternoon I cut my thumb while slicing apples (because I am AMAZING in the kitchen, y'all.  A badass).  Now I'm distracted and can't remember half of my idea, and I'm typing with a makeshift gauze bandage held on with washi tape and a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles bandaid (#momlife).  

As long as I'm using made up hashtags, let's also use this one:  #lameexcuses  

How about, instead, I share some recs?  :-)

Elysium by Aloysia Virgata.  Five things Scully didn't get to do with William and one she did.  Kleenex warning!  No spoilers for Season 10.

Five Times Scully Called Mulder "Fox" and a Thousand Times She Didn't by Leiascully.  What it says on the tin, and slightly NSFW.  And just awesome.

Just the Thing by pinebluffvariant - A sweet story set at the end of "How the Ghosts Stole Christmas."

Coda by deslea - A little Alex Krycek.  To say more is to spoil.  It's lyrical and amazing, made me nostalgic and giddy all at once.

There are likely tons more, but the point is this:  whether you are on Tumblr or not, the place to find the good (most MSR) stuff right now is clearly here:  https://www.tumblr.com/search/xf+fanfic
