Summary:
A story that's shorter than its description
Disclaimer: Did anyone else watching 'Arcadia' wonder if the product placement guys told
Tropicana what Mulder was going to do with the empty container? Or if they told Ford that
the owner of the featured '97 Mercury Villager ended up "lying around" the house after hiding
in the sewer for a couple of days? The X-Files is rewriting the book on cachet, fer sure.
Author's Notes:The author thanks Plausible Deniability, Ninyo Gaijin, and SusanF for beta
reading, but wonders if the paper bags over their heads were for hyperventilation or anonymity.

155 Words, or the Shortest Scene of Domestic Bliss
by Wayward

"I *said*, Woman, make me a sandw-- Oh, hey, you did."

"Yes, I did, Mulder. I told you I had something for you."

"Ummm, mmmph, this is good. Tomato, guacamole, cheese--but no beef. Needs beef."

"I'll try to remember. So this is your idea of domestic bliss? The high point of Arcadia?"

"Wha? Oh yeah, Honeybunch, having the little woman cater to my culinary desires,
definitely the best part of our jaunt to California."

"I'm glad you're enjoying that sandwich, Mulder. So what was the worst part of the
Arcadia thing?"

"<slurp!> Mmmph? Oh, the worst part? No question, seeing you in the green mango
face goop."

"It wasn't mango."

"Lime? Mutant apricot?"

"Not even close."

"What then?"

"All natural, no preservatives, puree of avocado."

"Scully?"

"Yes, Mulder?"

"I think...I think I'm going to be...ARGGHHHH!!!! YOU PUT THAT
FACE GOOP IN MY SANDWICH!!!!"

"That's right, Poopyhead."
