    It probably makes no sense to folks here who know nothing of my argument with an author who tries to elicit attention by writing shockfic in which she offs Mulder and Scully, or they off each other, in excruciatingly gory detail.

    There is no insecurity or hidden meaning about the warnings on this story, it’s her first fanfic that she has posted, and I didn’t get to see which warnings she was putting on before it was posted. It isn’t shockfic, I mean the ending isn’t exactly a total surprise, we just made a mistake ok????
