That was sweet.
Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I want to know what is so bad with abbreviations. I typed MSR when I was a young thing, uphill both ways! And in the winter, I had to type all the way out to S/Sk!!
Crazy young things with their inability to use judicious single letters.
Wait, wait, I'm just getting warmed up. I know I have a rant in me somewhere.

MSR--Mulder-Scully-?
S/SK--Scully-Skinner?
Ah, days of our youth.

Go Nutty!
Though, you know, you didn't have as much confusion in that 'verse. I mean, B/L meant just one thing (umm... maybe two, if you count the weirdness of that particular pairing), but in Buffy, L could be Lorne, Lindsey, or Lilah.
Of course, I guess in the X-Files, the B could be any one of the Vast Army of Billiams. So, nevermind. Rant on.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
MSR was (is) Mulder-Scully Romance. So big it formed its own Politburo. Like, when the movie came out, the big phrase going around was:
MSR KGB: "Hah. We win."
In a jokey way that got annoying only several years later.
Yes, yes, old XF was an autistically accurate and categorical fandom. People argued about whether a story that has sex, but not love, or sex, love, and nonetheless a violent breakup, should still be labeled MSR.
