Poor Queequag.

seren_ccdSo, I'm deliberately not looking at my Big Bang for the next 48 hours in order to approach it later with new eyes and do some editing.
Instead I'm just reading a lot and spending far too much time on tumblr.
You know what's an amazing time-suck? Going to delicious and typing in a favourite pairing and then reading fic and gazing at picspams. I'm currently in a Mulder/Scully mood and there are over 2,000 entries on delicious for them.
I'm thinking a re-watch is in order. I've totally forgotten most of the mytharc stuff. I might skip the cancer-arc though, that seemed to go on for too long.
However, my all time favourite episode is probably Quagmire with Big Blue and the Ahab speech.
The following conversation is some of the best the X-Files ever had to offer.
That is some serious pillow-talk right there. Dear God, I miss that writing.
BUT, this has always bugged me. You know the little dog Scully has with her, Queequag, who meets an unfortunate end? She says he was her sister's dog. He WASN'T. He was the little dog in Clyde Bruckman's Final Repose that belonged to his neighbour and Scully adopted him.
Did this bother anyone else?
Just me?
I, for some reason, don't have any X-Files icons, so Ripley and Hicks will have to do. Woohoo, Aliens!

Scully: No, how much you're like Ahab. You're so consumed by your personal vengeance against life, whether it be its inherent cruelties or mysteries, everything takes on a warped significance to fit your megalomaniacal cosmology.
Mulder: Scully, are you coming on to me?
Scully: It's the truth or a white whale. What difference does it make? I mean, both obsessions are impossible to capture, and trying to do so will only leave you dead along with everyone else you bring with you. You know Mulder, you are Ahab.
