STAND-ALONES | 'TURN AROUND' SERIES | 'DIFFERENT KINDS' SERIES

'Sleepwalking Your Path'

SPOILERS: Three Words
RATING:
PG-13 (some bad language and violence)
CATEGORY: A, MSR, MT
SUMMARY:
Sometimes you need to see things through somebody else's eyes.
AUTHOR'S NOTES: Yes I am still around! Just had a lot going on in RL. This was originally written for MR's 'Take a walk in my shoes' fic challenge in October 2005, but was never done in time and has taken a year to complete, so now it's ready for the Oct '06 MR 'Abductions & Ructions' challenge. Thanks heaps to Lisa for the beta and pokes!

'Silent Night, Painful Sight'

SPOILERS: Lots of nods to VS episodes, but nothing from the show.
RATING:
R - Violent content and language
CATEGORY: X, MSR, MT, ST, A
SUMMARY:
Just another little trip to the forest, really - cannibalism, thick snow...oh, and an evil Santa Claus. Just what Mulder and Scully really wanted at Christmas instead of spending time together at home!
AUTHOR'S NOTES: Mucho kudos to Lisa and Vickie for the great, speedy beta, the constant pokes, the support and the ending - YOU ROCK!

'Semper Fi'

SPOILERS: No direct episode spoilers, but there are references to events up through season 7 of the televised XF universe and 14 of the Virtual Season, and near the end of NCIS's televised season 4.
RATING:
PG-13
CATEGORY: X, XF/NCIS Crossover, MSR
SUMMARY:
The X-Files duo and NCIS's team are forced to work together after their current cases turn out to be the same one. When deception and misdirection block their path, though, teamwork and loyalty to each other are the only things that will help them through.
AUTHOR'S NOTES:
Hugs and thanks to Lisa and Keith for the wonderful encouragement and for checking this over/betaing when it was finally done, and Vickie for the extra beta. This is my first ever crossover and writing of any other TV characters besides XF, so please be gentle with feedback LOL

'If The Tables Had Been Turned'

SPOILERS: 'Audrey Pauley', 'DeadAlive' and 'One Breath' primarily, but everything else is pretty much fair game as well.
RATING:
PG
CATEGORY: S, A, MSR, DRR (hinted)
SUMMARY:
'Did Scully do the wrong thing by telling Doggett there was no hope for Reyes?'
AUTHOR'S NOTES: Just a quickie. It always bugged me that Scully, who would have fought tooth and nail if that had been Mulder in the bed instead of Reyes, was so callous toward Doggett's search for answers, so this is my attempt to explain her mindset LOL

'Parenting A Different Kind Of Experience'

SPOILERS: Brand X, Three Words, The Truth
RATING:
G
CATEGORY: MSR. massive white balls of powdery fluff
SUMMARY:
An afternoon of mush in the slush.
AUTHOR'S NOTES: This is a pretty pointless follow up to 'There's A Different Kind Of Hush' which was part three in the unintentional 'Different Kinds' series. The only excuse I have for writing it is it was snowing outside and it just got my muse ticking over enough to hammer this out LOL

'Surviving A Different Kind Of Birth'

SPOILERS: The whole series
RATING:
R (for a couple bad words)
CATEGORY: MSR. A, ST
SUMMARY:
'"Mul-der," she whined, turning fear-filled eyes to him, "S-something's wrong..."'
AUTHOR'S NOTES: Yet another installment in the unintentional 'Different Kinds' series, following up after 'Parenting A Different Kind Of Experience'. Dedicated to Vickie M and all my listmates at IWTBXF :)

'Double Jeopardy'

SPOILERS: The whole VS universe thusfar.
RATING:
PG-15 (for strong language)
CATEGORY: X, S, MSR, MT
SUMMARY:
42 years after the first incident a UFO crashes in Pennsylvania, except this time somebody believes they can hand the craft over to Mulder and Scully. Could it finally be the proof they've been after for 15 years?
AUTHOR'S NOTES: Mucho gracias to my lovely beta Lisa :) Happy holidays everyone!

G
CATEGORY: V, MSR
SUMMARY:
Ponderings of a changed soul.

--------------------------------------------------

Just Pause

SPOILERS: 'Triangle'
RATING:
PG
CATEGORY: V, M/S UST
SUMMARY:
What was going through their minds in that second-and-a-half of silence?
AUTHOR'S NOTE: Don't ask me where this came from....For no reason I just started thinking about the end scene in Triangle and how much I've always thought Scully waits quite a while before saying 'Oh, brother' - this was just to appease my mind, I guess LOL

SUMMARY:
She may have done it all over again, but knowing how high one cost is, would Mulder change his choice if given chance?

--------------------------------------------------

Shooting Hoops
(written with Sally Bahnsen)

SPOILERS: ----------
RATING:
PG-13.....maybe a little more for violence and language
CATEGORY: MSR, MT, A
SUMMARY:
One crazed fan, one ignorant athlete, one game and two FBI agents do not mix. Could this night *really* get any worse? Hell yes!
AUTHORS' NOTE: Written with love for the VS13's Spring Sports Special. We should also note that we took some artistic license and swapped round the venue for the last basketball game of the series because it was more fun to have it at The Garden, so please don't come chasing after us with pointy items unless it's to poke us into writing more ;)
DEDICATIONS:
(Sally) This story is dedicated to the gals at MR. But especially the nubester, for being a worthy opponent and for making me smile everyday.
(Sketch) For Nubsie, all at MR, and my writing buddy on this, Sal - this has been an awesome writing experience, thank you sooo much :) Also a nod to Kathy Bates, whose portrayal of Annie Wilkes in the film version of Stephen King's 'Misery' creeps the living hell out of me more than Donnie Pfaster, even to this day! And, lastly but never leastly, Mr P.

--------------------------------------------------

The Journey To Understanding

SPOILERS: Three Words, NIHT and The Truth. Minor references for the whole series.
RATING:
PG (one bad word)
CATEGORY: MSR, A, other POV

SUMMARY:
He'd wanted the day to go off without a hitch, not with a bang!
AUTHOR'S NOTES: Written at break-neck (or, rather, 'break-wrist' hehehe) speed for the VS13 Valentine's Day Special.

--------------------------------------------------

Wish, William

SUMMARY:
Post-colonisation Christmas celebrations bring a visitor, request for the truth and the passing on of a wish.
AUTHOR'S NOTES: Freesol, M&S's beach/home/fake IDs are all used in my post-'The Truth' WiP 'The Beginning And The End', and 'Different Kind' series, but none of the stories are connected. Also, it should be noted that your skills at re-arranging words to create coherent sentences are vital when reading this story.
DEDICATION: To all the XF fanfic readers and writers out there - HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!! :)



'TURN AROUND' SERIES:

Last Chance To Turn Around

PG

SPOILERS: Everything up to and through 'NIHT2'.
RATING:
PG

--------------------------------------------------

LCTTA4: On The Outside Looking In

SPOILERS: Everything up to 'Trust No 1'
RATING:
PG-13
CATEGORY: MSR, S, Angst-o-rama, MT, pre-ep, AU-ish (only in that whose to say this didn't happen where the cameras weren't rolling?)
SUMMARY:
With only the company of a fourteen-year-old boy that can read his thoughts, just how 'eaten away' was Mulder's resolve by Trust No 1? And can he really refrain from returning home again...permanently?
DEDICATION: To everybody that reads my stories and takes the time to give kind words of support (you know who you are ;))

--------------------------------------------------

DEDICATION: To all the XF 'Shippers out there - MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

--------------------------------------------------

There's A Different Kind Of Hush

SPOILERS: Post-The Truth, so spoilers for the whole series
RATING:
G
CATEGORY: V, MSR, A
SUMMARY:
An unnecessary trip to realise some truths.
AUTHOR'S NOTES: This is a follow up to 'Enjoying A Different Kind Of Existence', which was the sequel to 'A Different Kind Of Christmas'. I never intended for this universe to become a series, but sometimes the muse just works that way LOL It's not vital that you have read the two preceding stories, but it'd make me super-duper happy :)

 

Enjoying A Different Kind Of Existence

SPOILERS: post-The Truth
RATING:
G
CATEGORY: S, MSR, A, fluff
SUMMARY:
The storm after the calm lingers in their fears.
AUTHOR'S NOTES: This is a follow-up to my Xmas story 'A Different Kind Of Christmas' that wouldn't have been written if it weren't for a couple of people asking me to make it into a series (you know who you are and this is 'specially for you!) It's not necessary to have read the first story so don't panic if you haven't, but I'd be grateful if you did <g>
