RATING: PG-13
CLASSIFICATION: V, H, picfic
DISCLAIMER: The muse made me do it.
Oh, and these characters don't belong to me. But I'm holding them hostage until FOX decides to actually promote their movie.
NOTES: Yes, it's another fic about THE pic from People magazine (see the banner above). I just couldn't help myself. But I skimmed the other stories, and I don't think anyone has written this exact scenario yet.
Thanks to Christine Leigh, you can find those other stories collected here:
Pic Fic
For posterity: In April 2008, as we were all eagerly anticipating the release of the second XF movie, People magazine released a picture of Mulder and Scully that in turn inspired a bevy of new fanfics (many by authors who hadn't posted stories in years). This is one of those fics.

"Shit."
"Mulder, I told you that patching up those holes in your head with Super Glue was a bad idea."
"Yeah? And whose bright idea was it to lean against said Super Glue?"
"That wasn't intentional. I was just trying to...and I accidentally... Oh, never mind."
"No, really, Scully. I think you should come up with a good explanation for this, because the paramedics will want to know how this happened."
"Well, you were trying to--"
"No, I mean the part about how you got stuck to me."
"I've been stuck to for years."
"I think the cliche is 'joined at the hip,' not 'joined at the forehead.'"
"I can't believe you didn't turn that into an innuendo. You must be slipping, Mulder."
"Not at the moment, but that wouldn't be a bad idea. Got any Vaseline?"
"That won't help. And before you suggest it, ripping apart from each other would remove a layer of epidermis and could potentially be quite painful."
"So, we wait?"
"We wait. Actually, could you wait a little closer? Standing on this fence rail isn't as comfortable as it may look."
"Why don't you just stand on the ground?"
"Um, Mulder--foreheads? Unless you also want a serious kink in your neck--"
"Oh, sounds kinky. See that? Not slipping."
*Sigh.* "Do you hear sirens yet? Why don't I hear sirens? They should be here by now."
"I suppose they have more pressing concerns."
"Mulder."
"Someone else who found themselves in a sticky situation."
"You can stop anytime now."
"Stopping." Pause. "Scully?"
"Yes?"
"There's no one I'd rather be stuck with than you."
