Reactions and Reviews
Time to pass romance and go straight to the smut. ;) Seriously, Karen Rasch has said she is heading toward the end of her "Words" universe. Her installment for the summer, "Words to the Wise," transcended NC-17 and became a sometimes uncomfortable exploration of the true level of trust between Mulder and Scully.By "uncomfortable," I mean the deep psychological exploration Rasch writes in this installment. I think she really hits home on her assumptions that Mulder and Scully will not join and automatically become blissful soulmates. There is a long journey of trust and distrust, control and submission and control again ahead for Mulder and Scully.
It is not a comfortable read for those who want M&S to end up together, but it does have an under-lying honesty (and, let's face it, some *hot* sex scenes) that is hard to resist. Karen explores some difficult themes in "Wise," but she handles them as deftly as her near-famous "handling" of our two fave agents. Intelligent NC-17. Ahhhhh. [1]
