X-Files Collector’s Fic: IVF Successes (Poll Results 3rd)

This list was inspired by this poll, sharing 3rd place with post-Tithonus Mother Hen Mulder.

Successful IVF fics are my life’s blood (…okay, all of these Poll Result Fics are my favorites, but–); and there are, fortunately, so many good ones that I love to reread over and over.

I could go on and on about each and every detail I love about each and every one of these fics; but it would take eons. Instead, let’s go!

Loose chronological order below~

**Note**: Will ghost edit later~.

@o6666666/o666666’s Untitled

“"Which room tonight?”

She smiles, eyes closed. “Living room.”

He starts, slowly, to scratch her back. “The older kids have a soccer tournament this weekend,” he begins, speaking in the soft monotone that feels like a back scratch in itself. “They came in with their cleats on and tracked mud everywhere and you got mad.”

He feels her grin and gathers her closer.”“

Mulder weaves bedtime stories about their Imaginary House filled with kids, a dog, filling food, and a skylight window on the first floor of a two story-house.

2016 Fictober Drabbles - Chapter 8 (Ao3)

”“The first time, Mulder had stayed in their basement office during the procedure, and later, when she’d learned that it hadn’t taken, she’d informed him by phone.  The second time, he’d driven her to the doctor’s and waited in the car.  He’d offered to come in with her,  but she’d turned him down.  There had still been no discussion regarding what they’ll do if the procedure works- she hadn’t seen any point in making any decisions when they didn’t even know if it would be necessary- and with his potential involvement still undecided, she’s not completely comfortable having him there.”“

Mulder prevents Scully from giving in to despair, asking to pay for her third IVF attempt and opening up their relationship to more.

Someday Your Child May Cry

”“Mulder blows straight past Dr. Parenti’s receptionist, with Scully doing her best to ignore the sharp pains in her gut and keep up. In his fury, he’s forgotten her still-healing injury, and from the look he’d had on his face when he’d gotten out of the car, he’s not likely to remember it anytime soon.

She’s never seen him this furious.

Inside Parenti’s office, Mulder doesn’t pause before grabbing the doctor, lifting him bodily from his desk chair, and slamming him against the wall. He brandishes the test results in the terrified man’s face.

“Who do you work for?” Mulder demands. “Whose orders were you following when you did this to my partner? To our child?”“

A S6 chapter by chapter epic where Mulder and Scully battle their way through their failing IVF attempts and loss of the X-Files; but what almost breaks them is when Mulder slips up to Diana, who then sells this information to her Consortium higher-ups. (The Tithonus and Sixth Extinction chapters left an imprint on my mind forever. Stunning work, @sunflowerseedsandscience– you left a mark on my mind forever~.)

there is a plethora of good x-files fanfics out there and i’ve just started to develop the problem of reading a very good one and not being able to find it again. because of this - and because all of these are genuinely novel worthy and the writers are INSANELY talented - i’ve decided to compile a list of some of my absolute favorites. some of these are from ao3 & some of them i found on other websites, such as x-libris and the gossamer project. i hope you enjoy these as much as i did and do. they mean the world to my romantic heart.

  • incrementum by lepusarcticus (explicit) - this was the first x-files fanfic i ever remember reading. i was trying desperately not to spoil the show for myself and i found out that this fic followed along the narrative, which was a godsend. i got the best of both worlds: a delectable, angsty passionate mulder/scully fic (in which they fucked from day 1) and no spoilers. it was so so so so fun reading this alongside watching the show. this writer is brilliant

I made this

🦈

Credits ( things i used or took ideas from or got helped by )

Idea : from misslunarose

Text : copy paste from autism level real life descriptions ( what the levels are like in a person instead a list of symptoms ) from my psychologist Caitlin

Symbols : from ARASAAC

Help : from my mum who helped me put those parts together to make this on canva thank you

Guys didnt realise this would be confusing that I didnt think to say some stuff so for what this is about

This is written by my psychologist about YOUNG ADULTS 16 - 25 living in AOTEAROA NEW ZEALAND

Different age people will have different experience and different country people will have different experience!

And its not criteria or symptom list or rules about to be each level it is a GENERAL IDEA of what a AVERAGE PERSON at each level looks like in living their life just day to day

And not every one is the average person there is still room for different things inside levels!

If any one can reblog this reblog that says that cause I didnt realise or think to put that stuff in but it confused some one but I know its important now so know this part

Reblog to avoid confusion ☝🏼

[ID: an overview about the 3 autism levels compared to each other. Level One is on the left, Level Two in the middle and Level Three on the right.

Level One: Requiring Support

Autistic Traits

Social

Strangers may be able to tell I have a disability, or they may think I am just awkward.

I may have difficulty understanding social cues such as body language and tone, or I may have been able to learn these cues with a lot of effort.

I struggle with making and keeping friendships and relationships.

Behaviour

I may have sensory issues and struggle with loud sounds, bright lights, bad textures, etc.

I need to fidget and move around a lot, even when I don’t have surplus energy, or I may feel the need to but have been trained out of acting on it.

I have strong and specific interests; I usually only like one or a few things at a time and these interests last for years.

I may shutdown where I lose the ability to speak.

Changes distress me, but unless I am already having a hard time I can cope if I am given some time to process.

Development

I was most likely in general education with or without an IEP, or had my time split between general and special education.

I may have needed speech or occupational therapy or support services, but likely did not.

I may have had developmental delays, but I also may have hit milestones on time or early.

I have high, normal, or low intelligence.

Life skills

I can complete all ADLs - e.g. bathing, eating and drinking, getting dressed - by myself or with prompting.

I need support to complete IADLs - e.g. shopping, cooking, budgeting - or I need someone else to do these things for me.

I am able to live independently or with support. I may need someone to help me keep on track.

Language

I am fully verbal.

I may have a flat tone or lack appropriate expression.

My understanding of language is generally sound.

Level Two: Requiring Substantial Support

Autistic Traits

Social

Strangers are able to tell I have a disability.

I do not understand social cues such as body language and tone. Even with support, I have never been able to learn these. I have difficulty understanding speech,

My social life is extremely limited and I need support to talk to new people.

Behaviour

I have sensory issues and struggle with everyday sounds, lights, textures, etc. I may not be able to control my reaction to sensory input.

I often move repetitively and unusually for no apparent reason.

I have strong and specific interests; I usually only like one thing at a time, it is the only thing I can think about, and this interest lasts for years.

I may have shutdowns where I lose the ability to speak, and I may have meltdowns where it is difficult to control myself and not hurt others.

Changes significantly distress me and may cause shutdowns or meltdowns.

Development

I was most likely in special education,

I have needed speech, behavioural, and occupational therapy and support services from a young age.

I had significant developmental delays and hit all of my milestones late; or I had a significant regression before the age of five.

I have low intelligence, an intellectual impairment, and intellectual disability, or a speech impairment.

Life skills

I need hand over hand prompting or physical support to complete all or most ADLs - e.g. bathing, eating and drinking, and getting dressed.

I need someone else to complete IADLs - e.g. shopping, cooking, budgeting - for me.

I am able to live with support or I may need to live in residential care. I need a carer to keep me healthy and safe.

Language

I may be fully verbal or speak only in single words or short sentences. I may need to communicate in other ways such as sign or symbol AAC.

My speech is non-fluent.

I have difficulty with both understanding and speaking language.

Level Three: Requiring Very Substantial Support

Autistic Traits

Social

My disability is very obvious.

I do not notice social cues and I have difficulty understanding speech, or I can not understand it at all.

I do not have a social life. I am not able to make connections with other people and I am or appear to be unaware of other people, or I lack any interest in other people.

Behaviour

I have extreme sensory issues and even in low sensory environments I meltdown most days from them.

I move repetitively and unusually all of the time without knowing.

I have strong and specific interests; I usually like one or a few things in my lifetime and they are one of the only things I engage with.

I have extreme violent meltdowns where I am unable to control my body. I may sometimes have shutdowns where I appear almost catatonic.

I am not able to cope with change.I have meltdowns and my day is unable to continue.

Development

I was in special education.

I have needed intensive speech, behavioural, occupational, and physical therapy as well as intensive support services from a young age.

I had severe developmental delays, and I may never have hit some milestones such as learning to talk or walk.

I have an intellectual disability or am totally nonverbal.

Life skills

I need someone to complete all ADLs for me - e.g. bathing, feeding, and dressing me.

I need someone else to complete all IADLs - e.g. shopping, cooking, budgeting - for me, and I am totally unaware these exist.

I need to live in residential care. I need a one-to-one carer at all times.

Language

I can speak only in single words or not at all. I may need to communicate in other ways such as symbol AAC or I may not be able to understand this either.

I likely am not able to read or write.

My understanding of language is poor or nonexistent.

Note: Since my old masterlist is getting notes again (and I’m hosting @tbb-appreciation-week this year), I thought it’s a good time to release a new version with a lot more resources. If any of you know another site or thing that it’s missing from the list, let me know and I’ll include it!! [Altho, I’m getting this close 🤏 to the hyperlinks limit on this thing 😆]

Note 2: To avoid tagging the 3 people from whom I got multiple resources repeatedly, I’ve placed 1-3 asterisks between square brackets after the links, depending on the OP. I give the respective credit to them in a legend at the end of the post.

HELPFUL BLOGS & SITES

  • The amazing @fox-trot, who not only makes astonishing art and write an amazing fic, she also responds to medical questions and gives all kinds of references for writing medic characters. Check her #medicposting tag and you’ll find tons of information. Also check #star wars reference and her art tag while you’re at it.
  • @writebetterstarwars, which seems to be inactive, but there are a bunch of references there.
  • @howtofightwrite The place to find out how to write a good fight scene.
  • @scriptmedic no longer active, but it has a great deal of useful information.
  • @scripttorture for your whump needs. Major trigger warning for all its content.

  • Wookiepedia If you don’t find something in here, it’s probably because it doesn’t exist, neither as a canon nor legends reference.
  • Star Wars Databank: The official Star Wars website’s reference guide. All canon.

WRITING IN GENERAL (For those who don’t want to die like Stormtroopers)

  • SlickWrite: Completely free; online. Checks grammar, punctuation, flow, and writing style according to different settings (including fiction writing).
  • ProWritingAid: [RECOMMENDED] One of the most thorough online proofreader I’ve ever used. Although when using a free account gives extremely thorough feedback, with +20 different in-depth reports, for only the first 500 words. However, you can earn a premium account license (for a year or for life) if you get 10 or 20 new users signing up for free; (if you wouldn’t mind doing so using the link above and help me earn mine, please). The settings allow you to check your writing according to your needs, from general to formal to creative. It has a bonus that you can check depending on the genre you’re writing. For example, in creative, you can choose romance or sci-fiction (there are 14 sub-genre in total). And just like google docs, you can share a document, and people can view, comment or edit it too.
  • LanguageTool: [RECOMMENDED] Another excellent proofreader. It also has a word limit in free accounts, but if you use the add-on for Google Docs, it counts each page as a new document, so hitting the word limit is nearly impossible. It helps you to rewrite a sentence (3 a day), even if it doesn’t raise any flags; it’s very useful for when your sentence is grammatically correct, but it doesn’t feel quite right.
  • Grammarly, Hemingway Editor: No so great, but they do the basic job.

Three panels of a comic, in the first Count Dracula holds a glass of wine and is talking to Jonathan Harker. Text indicates Dracula requesting "Jonathan! Tell me more of my house in England!" Jonathan replies "oh uh, sure. I'll just go get the paperwork.  In the second panel Dracula stands with his wine in his hand and his eyes closed happily and Jonathan leaves the room. In the third panel Dracula's eyes open slightly to check that he is goneALT
three more panels of the same comic In the first panel Dracula, clearly frantic and eyes now open wide, drops his wine and stands with both arms up at his sides and legs squatted as if preparing to run in the second panel he sprints off page in the third he is shown carrying a large stack of dishes from his dinner with jonathan which almost obscures his face. he is then shown frantically washing them in a sinkALT
three more panels in the first Dracula, still clearly rushing through his tasks, is shown lighting candles on a candelabra in the second he is shown hurriedly throwing down rose petals onto the floor in the third he leaps towards an armchair through the air in a pose reminiscent of a cat with the zoomiesALT
two more panels  in the first Jonathan returns to the room, he is holding papers which he is looking down at. Text indicates him saying "Alright Count, I'm back with the paperwork and I-" the second panel shows Dracula reclined on a loveseat in a pose he clearly considers seductive. He is surrounded by rose petals and lit candelabra. Cursive text indicates him saying "Hellooo Jonathan. I've been awaiting your return..." He is holding a rose in one hand, and an open book with 'Bradshaw Guide' written on the cover in the other.ALT
the last two panels of the comic feature Jonathan looking dumbstruck. He stands silently with his papers staring at the Count. In the second panel he squints in confusion and asks "...Are you reading the train schedule?"ALT

Jon he’s really trying here cut him a break

(tumblr crunched the resolution of this comic a lot rip)
