Will You Merry Me? Challenge

In this challenge you’ll be writing about two things: Christmas and an engagement or wedding.

Set the majority of your story in December (in a year of your choice) and one of two things will happen then:


A. Mulder and Scully will become engaged on December 24th or December 25th

or

B. Mulder and Scully will marry during the 4th week of December - bear in mind a December 25th wedding is not likely at a busy church, but if your couple needs to marry that day I’m sure you’ll think of some way to get it done

However, if you’d like to have them have a year long engagement, you’re welcome to include A and B in your story.

And

A child of Scully’s (and perhaps Mulder’s) should be at the wedding. The “child” can be an adult as long as it’s her bio-child.

And 

Samantha and/or Melissa are in attendance. Really there in the flesh? Her/their spirit(s) visits? That’s between you and your muse. Either way, have one scene where Scully’s child interacts with his/her aunt(s).

Please submit your story or the link to it to nurseryfiles@mulderscreek.com or post here on our submissions Tumblr - or send me a message with your fic on Tumblr to reblog - by New Years Eve
