[Things have settled down. Between experiments, amusement parks, abductions and drafts, this is the first nice calm stretch of time he's had in a while. So Mulder's hanging out in the Battle Dome. He's been coming there a lot more lately. The new features interest him, and there are places from home he can't help revisiting. Not always to fight, since it's no longer required, though he throws those scenarios in sometimes too. But mostly he's in there obsessively going back through particular scenes.]

[At the moment, Mulder can be seen sitting in the living room where Samantha disappeared from. The board game Stratego is still set up in place near him, the game left unfinished. It's exactly as the room looked all those years ago. A blinding bright light flashes somewhere in the background.]


I wonder what determines the point in time we're taken from? It appears entirely random from all that I've encountered so far. Almost like someone's throwing darts at a timeline or choosing those times out of a hat. A really ugly hat. I also wonder... why some people are brought here after death. [Jonathan. Gem. ...Sigh.] It doesn't seem fair, to grant someone a new life only to throw them back eventually anyway.

...speaking of that, I've been curious about something for a while. [And needing to expand his files, he's already delved into kidnappings, revival has always been somewhere on his list too.] If anyone who's died before, either here or at home, wouldn't mind indulging me for a couple of questions? I won't ask how it happened or anything, just... some related details on the topic. Thanks in advance.

To see if I can gain any insight into the revivals. There's a lot about this place that defies explanation, and I'm investigating it.

...I won't be taking down names or anything like that. We can filter the details for confidentiality.

Huh... That's reasonable, I guess. [he doesn't see how talking to people is going to get anywhere, but then, he's not a scientist type.]

I don't think I can help you out with that, though... I got revived before I wound up here.

[Being an FBI agent, investigations are what he does. And he just can't seem to quit working even after a few months here.]

That's no problem, I'm always curious to hear about how revival works on other worlds anyway. The supernatural is an interest of mine. Do you know how it is you were brought back?

By a necromancer. ...I can't really explain how her magic works.

I could at least wager a few guesses. All varieties of necromancy have some common traits between them, whether we're talking more traditional shamanistic practices or modern channeling techniques...

Anyway. I have a feeling that differs from whatever methods the Malnosso use.

Yeah... I kinda doubt it too. [resurrected people here lack the same... side effects.]

I wish there was some way to understand it better, or at least figure out some way to keep people alive after they're revived here.

[Having so many vanish only to go home and die... it's not right.]
