Chapter Summary:
Everything is brushing up against revelation— romantic, psychological, and literal danger— and the gravity is palpable.
Under a harvest moon, truths begin to surface. Mulder grapples with the collapse of myth into something colder, more human, while Scully is swept into a night that feels disarmingly like fate, guided by Skinner’s steady presence and unexpected grace.
Between candlelight, music, and distant gunshots, the line blurs between romance and reckoning— between what’s lost, and what might still be found.
