I'm just hoping this doesn't bounce. Hope you like it! Any responses should be sent to my email address, since I'm not subscribed to this list. Nancy ******************** Disclaimer: You'd think that I'd start to get used to writing these by now... oh well. Mulder and any reference to events in the X-Files belong to Chris Carter, Ten Thirteen Productions, and Twentieth Century Fox. Roger Stevenson is all mine... well in my story, anyway. No infringement intended, and I sure as hell don't make any money from this. Otherwise, I'd be calling Air Canada to make reservations to go to LuvFest <sigh>. So, please don't sue this poor, poor student. This story is a response to Small Potatoes. The lack of communication and tension between Mulder and Scully *begged* to be addressed. Here's a little something I came up with as I wondered how Mulder might deal with it. Summary: Mulder ends up in a bar, trying to drown his troubles, and can't get the pesky barman to leave him alone. Set after Small Potatoes. Rating: VRA. PG for a few swearwords. No violence, no X-File, just a lot of UST with a sprinkling of Romance, and Scully's not even in the room. ;) [586 lines left ... full text available at <url:http://www.reference.com/cgi-bin/pn/go?choice=message&table=05_1997&mid=939534&hilit=BRAIN+FEEDBACK> ] -------------------------------- Article-ID: 05_1997&892043 Score: 78 Subject: Re: In search of the third form of society
