The 22 Short E-mail Messages of Fox Mulder and Dana Scully By Kristyn Collins XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX To: fmulder@fbi.gov From:wskinner@fbi.gov Subject: Your Report 13:46 EST Your report was received. I don't like the look of those expense reports, Mulder. I'm warning you if any of this stuff is personal, it will mean a suspension. I don't like this dinner on here. AD Skinner XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX X To: fmulder@fbi.gov From: dscully@fbi.gov Subject:dinner 18:30 EST Mulder, thanks for dinner. Did you write that off? You know Skinner's been on our backs about expenses. Look, if he makes you pay, bill me for half, okay? XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX To:dscully@fbi.gov From:fmulder Subject: Re:dinner 03:41 EST No, Scully. That was my treat! (Well, I wrote it off, but it really was a business expense!). If he makes me pay for it, I'll pay for it. In case you're wondering, I can't sleep again. But what do you care? You won't get this until morning. In fact, I'll probably sitting across from you while you read it. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX To:fmulder@fbi.gov From:dscully@fbi.gov Subject:You too? 03:47 EST You up too? I can't sleep either. What are you doing online? I'll bet you are looking at those porno sites. Are you sure dinner's on you? That was really nice of you. You sensed I was shaken by that case, huh? BTW, Has Skinner contacted you? WBS XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX To:dscully@fbi.gov From:fmulder@fbi.gov Subject: Who me? 03:54 EST I guess the insomnia is catching. Who, me look at porno? You must have me confused with someone else. What are YOU doing online so late? BTW?WBS? You sound like a pro web surfer! I sensed that the case was a little too close to home for you. I guess it's on both our minds tonight. Yes, Skinner contacted me. He warned me I could be suspended if I fudged expenses. Should I be worried? XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX To:fmulder@fbi.gov From:dscully@fbi.gov Subject:Yeah, you! 04:02 EST Mulder, insomnia doesn't "catch". And I can just see you gawking at those poor women who have to make money by selling their bodies. What am I doing? If you must know, I'm surfing the web site for the new England Journal of Medicine. It's very interesting. I've been thinking a lot about that case, about Melissa. About you and about my life. I guess thinking about my life shouldn't take long- I don't have one! Sorry, I don't mean to dump on you. Skinner won't suspend you. He may have one of his tirades, though. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX To:dscully@fbi.gov From:fmulder@fbi.gov Subject: Life 4:10 EST Surfing the New England Journal of Medicine? What's the address? www.booooooring.com? Or perhaps www.yawn.com? That sounds right! Well, if you are trying to get to sleep, that's the right place! You didn't dump on me. You can talk to me about anything, you know that. What were you thinking about me, huh? How positively stunning I look? No, really. I know I've asked you before, but would you change anything? I wouldn't. Maybe Duane Barry. But nothing else. I can handle Skinner yelling at me. Can you? XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX To:fmulder@fbi.gov From:dscully@fbi.gov Subject:Re:Life 4:15 EST Don't knock it 'till you've tried it! The NEJOM is very interesting. There's something in here about new virus' that are resistant to antibiotics, and how innovative doctors are fighting them. Why am I telling you this? You don't care! Can I tell you anything Mulder? Could YOU handle some of the stuff I have to tell you? Like telling you that I've been questioning my life with you. Little (very small) thoughts have come into my head about leaving the Bureau? That I should be getting chemo? How would that be, Mulder? Having to watch me throw up and lose my hair? What do you mean MAYBE Duane Barry? I take back saying I'd only change the Flukeman. I'd change Duane Barry AND the Flukeman AND the Peacocks. YUCK! I'm getting tired. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX To:dscully@FBI.gov From: fmulder@fbi.gov Subject: WOW 4:22 EST You are thinking about quitting? Scully, just to put that little thought out of your mind, can you imagine what would happen to me if you left? I'd fall apart! And think how empty my fridge would be! But I said you could talk, so talk. Why would you think about leaving? Do you want chemo? If you do, I'll be there for you. I'll hold your head while you barf and go out and buy you a wig. I'll drive you to the treatments, if that is what you want. I'm getting tired too. And you're starting to scare me, Scully. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX To: fmulder@fbi.gov From: dscully@fbi.gov Subject: Thank you 4:35 EST I will not quit. Thank you for saying those things. I think...no, I know if I started treatment both of us would fall apart. Do you really mean all that? You don't know how that comforts me. I don't want chemo, but I feel like I'm doing nothing now except letting the cancer win. I can't take that, Mulder. I need to fight somehow. That's what I've been thinking about, fighting. I can't sit back and do nothing. I am going to bed now Mulder. Goodnight. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX To:dscully@fbi.gov From:fmulder@fbi.gov Subject:Re:Thank You 4:38 EST I didn't just say those things, I meant them. Night Scully. Dream of me. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX To:fmulder@fbi.gov From:dscully@fbi.gov Subject:you too 4:45:EST Night Mulder. Dream of *me*. Thanks again. XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX How was it? DiLisky@ix.netcom.com
