Happy Birthday, Baby Mulder Challenge

My Struggle IV aired on March 21 of 2018, and Scully probably figured out she was pregnant when she was 3 to 12 weeks along (the possibility of menopause makes her plausible timetable longer than a lot of women, right?), so we’re probably looking at baby Mulder having been born between October and December of 2018. Unless he or she was born early which happens more with older mothers…This math is all very complicated, dear writers, even before speculating when Mulder and Scully got back together. So, just use your best judgement for the baby’s birth date, eh?

Your challenge is to set a fic in late 2019, late 2020, or late 2021. It’s baby Mulder’s birthday! Please give us a glimpse into the Mulder-Scully family dynamic as they celebrate the first, second, or third birthday of the youngest (?) member of the family.

Please submit your story or the link to it to nurseryfiles@mulderscreek.com, post it on our submissions Tumblr, or send me a message with a link to your story on your own Tumblr so I can reblog it

Do you have questions about writing a challengefic before you can begin your story? Look here to see if you can find your answer.
