โBecause ' just a guy ' who was an ex - agent and you won't tell your big brother his name , that's why , โ
Mulder huffed , picking up his coffee once again , โSeriously Sarah , background checks are a useful thing. โ
- There jobs were surprisingly similar, hers was just far less regulated and she picked the cases.
"I don't know what sort, he didn't tell me, I haven't asked, okay?
Why is this so important anyway? He's just a guy!"
โ future law enforcement calls me The Anglure. โ
He turns to face the stranger, tilting his head as white pupils look down at him. A low animalistic hiss related to an alligator sounds from it.
โ a new portal opened in my realm and I was wondering why. โ
โ If you have to ask , I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to identify yourself , โ In a federal building , how did he even get down here ?
Sitting up straighter in his chair , setting the crossword down.
โ Don't , we uh - we have decided to have our own offices , you know - for professionalism if needed and he's got a disco ball in his ... My thing is more - little grey aliens , โ
He smiled a bit , โOccultism and conspiracy theories. โ
Violent crimes - murder.
That made Luke laugh, โyeah, me too. Shouldโve seen his face when I told him we were doing a disco themed night and karaoke.โ
Though he views himself as more of the grumpy old man type. He sure acts like it sometimes.
Looking over the newspaper hidden in the file , he watched the stranger in his office โ eyes glance to the door โ then back at him.
โ Can I help you ? โ
He comes out fully and watches, moving to watch the pendulum on the desk, luckily he had just ate, so the items around the room were the only interesting things for himโ besides the human.
โ ... Thank you , โ
Oh ? It doesn't bother him , he's ... Used to the weird and wonderful โ vampirism or sects if it , is one of his favourite things to read about.
โIts been great. โ Mulder said with a smile , โHope when I'm his age I'm just as kooky, as he is , โ
Mulder , you're already there. Your name wasn't ' Spooky ' for no reason.
He held her proudly against his chest, she got stirred a little before cooing herself back to sleep.
โI think so but Iโm biased. There is a cafรฉ in town but I just come here,โ he patted Annaโs back, โso youโre working with Harry? Howโs that been?โ
Mulder smiled warmly watching Anna do her newborn scrunches , that was - something he didn't know he would miss about William.
โYeah , and the coffee ? Really good - best coffee in town I reckon. โ
โGlad yโall like it,โ that did make him happy. Heโs taking off the baby carrier so he can just hold Anna. Sheโs doing those newborn scrunches and grunts.
โGrilled cheese was one of the few things my wife could eat while pregnant so we only make them to perfection,โ he chuckled.
โBeen here a few times , me and Scully came for breakfast the other morning , โ And it was - really good , โWe had grilled cheese , I heard they were the best around town , โ
A booth usbjust perfect for them , sitting down and looking across to Luke and Anna.
Holding the door to the bar open for Mulder, Luke followed in after him. Normally heโd go to bar but he wanted to sit back while Anna slept so he picked a booth.
โDonโt know if youโve been here yet but I co-own this bar with my friend, Marcia.โ
โYeah, she wasโฆ nice,โ Luke smiled, he was so protective over Anna that he watches and questions everything the doctors do. But for Scully, he just watched.
โShe did a good job,โ he might have her be Annaโs doctor permanently.
โYou didn't get it from me , Sarah , โ
Oh , but she did , Mulder was a paranoid man , just not in the conventional sense , he will use that paranoia to fuel his work.
โGovernment contract for what ? โ
Turn off your probing, Fox.
