INTRODUCTION
First:
English is not my first language. I tried my best to clean up the text, but if you are the type that gets distracted by imperfect grammar you probably won't enjoy this. If you choose to read it, please don't doubt my intellectual capacity or my love and understanding of the show or the characters over this. I could had chosen to wait until my English is 100% perfect before I write in this language, but that could take a lifetime. There is only so much time in the world to share one's views with other people who might enjoy reading what I have to say. So please instead of bashing, send me a message with any corrections you think it needs. I will do my best to update it and learn.
Second:
This is a fill-in-the-blanks fic. It starts with the moment I think Scully starts to think about motherhood again. I placed that happening after Milagro for reasons you will see in the text and ends before Nothing important happened today I. The episodes in between the actions will be at the beginning of each chapter.
I rearranged the timeline of the episodes in a way I think it makes sense story wise based on the characters dialogue and behavior.
In this text my order is; Milagro, Biogenesis-The Sixth Extinction-Amor Fati,(Per Manum flashbacks), The Unnatural, Three of a kind, Field Trip, Hungry, Millenium, Sein und Zeit, Closure, all things, Rush, Fight Club, Hollywood A.D. The rest of the episodes are the season's order. My reasoning is that in The Unnatural Mulder jokes with Scully about her problems, including her biological clock. Now Mulder can be daft but this is a cruel comment to make given that he knows Scully is barren, but if she asked him to be the sperm donor after Milagro and they are doing the preparations the joke makes sense: Both are hopeful the procedure will work. Then the trilogy has to have happened before the petition too, because IMO Mulder wouldn't dream of a family with Diana if he and Scully were already talking about that even if it didn't take in the end. The dream was about fixing all his loved ones lives and that would include Scully being able to have a child. Then I think that after the kiss the next step for them is resolve their emotional baggage that kept them apart for so long before they start having sex. I doubt the characters would had allowed themselves to love each other physically still carrying these problems in their backs. And is clear to me that by Rush they resolved their sexual tension. I moved Fight Club earlier because they seem to be also in the honeymoon period and the extent of their injuries wouldn't have healed that fast for Requiem. Finally in the premiere of Hollywood A.D. they are also clearly going to enjoy a night out-of-town as a non-platonic couple.
Third:
The text does deal with God as really existing in this universe which I think is Chris Carter's intent in TFX so if you feel uncomfortable with that concept this text might not be for you either. It helps if when you read this you think that Chris Carter is God. ;)
But if you believe in God be warned that there is a lot of contradiction on how the characters think about him depending on what is going on, so it might offend some. This is not my intention, but I do think that fits the turmoil and ups and downs of the emotional roller-coaster that is Mulder and Scully's intimate life.
Fourth:
I change voices and perspectives in this text because I felt it served to be able to tell details in specific ways. Hope it's not too annoying.
Fifth:
There is a humorous intermission. If you don't like the humor episodes, you can skip it. It won't affect the story.

I really hope you enjoy reading this as much as I enjoyed writing it.
Blessings!
