Summary
The Queen is dead. Long live Pale Blue Monica, Student, stardust, om, amen. Detainee 3487 sits quietly in her mind and replays her memories. She will let go, become one, unravelling under the tutelage of her jailers.
Assistant Director John Doggett has vowed not to return until she is free, and in the meantime he writes down everything he can remember. He does this for them both, so that he never repeats his mistakes, and so that when she is exonerated he can help her come back to being Monica Reyes.
That is, of course, assuming she doesn't come home in a body bag.
---
This is part 3 of the Seasons series, a long form fic to show the events of S8 and 9 from Doggett and Reyes' perspective. I have to invent some things to make it make sense.
YEAR ONE details half of S8 as Doggett, Scully, and Reyes converge towards the X-Files. You may wanna read those first, but you can get away with reading them later on.
Episodes referenced are at the beginning so you can watch those 1st and avoid spoilers. They are not shot for shot retellings. This is the stuff that CC and co-missed.
Seasons: TINH next, formatting it now, up later today.

Summary
She is dead and she must move on to Mictlan. She did not die in battle, nor did she die while giving birth to a child. She will not be a hummingbird, nor is she a God, thus she must travel to the underworld, facing all the perils that journey entails.
It will take her four years, the dog-headed god Xolotl tells her. His nose twitches. It takes everyone four years, he says, more or less.
---Amiga Amante is DRR. Sharp Edges is MSR. You can start there is you don't want to give Doggett/Reyes a shot (but you should, it's pretty good).
Fic complete! See you in "Seasons".

Summary
And on her low spine there was a dark, scabrous wound with ragged edges. He traced its irregularities with his fingertips, his brows creased in concern. This one is new, he thought.
