Dana Scully and Fox Mulder belong to me.  BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!  Just kidding, 
they are the intellectual property of Chris Carter and 20th Century 
Television.  I'm just using them without permission.
This is a sequel to "Byte Me".  If you need it, just drop me a line at

<Hi, you reached Dana Scully.  Please leave a message and I'll get back 
to you as soon as I can.>
<BEEEEEEEP!>
"Scully, pick up the phone.  Hellooooo?  Where are you?  I know I asked you 
not to pick me up from the airport, but I thought you'd at least be 
home.  Okay, well, my flight got in a bit early, so I'm at home unpacking 
and filling the tub with jello IN CASE YOU WANT TO COME OVER..."

<This is Fox Mulder, please wait for the beep.>
<BEEEEEEEEP!>
"Mulder, I don't believe this.  I'm in Pittsburgh, but where the hell are 
YOU?  They said you checked out of the motel and the field office guys 
told me you went home!  By the way, you were right-they *are* losers.  
Are you even home yet?"

<Hi, you've reached Dana Scully.  Please leave a message and I'll get 
back to you as soon as I can.>
<BEEEEEEEEP!>
"Scully, I just went out for some groceries.  Now I know you're in 
Pittsburgh, but I don't know where!  Your celphone isn't turned on!  I'm 
just praying you try checking your messages.  If you don't call me back 
soon, I'll assume you got on the plane and came home again, okay?  Oh, 
and thanks for the new fish.  They are getting along swimmingly."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

<This is Fox Mulder.  Please wait for the beep.>
<BEEEEEEEEP!>
"Mulder, is your ringer on?  This is getting ridiculous.  You're right 
about Pittsburgh deserving its name, by the way.  I'm getting on the 
red eye back to D.C., I should be in at about seven o'clock.  I'll just 
come straight to your place so we can at least have some breakfast before 
work, okay?  I tried to check my messages, but it wouldn't accept my code 
through a rotary phone.  See you soon."

<Hi, you've reached Dana Scully.  Please leave a message and I'll get 
back to you as soon as I can.>
<BEEEEEEEEP!>
"Scully, where the hell are you?  I know you haven't called me back yet, 
because I've been waiting for hours for the phone to ring.  Literally.  
You were right, I don't have a life.  Well, except for you.  I wonder if 
something's wrong with my phone.  I'm going to call Frohike and ask him 
to call me back to check."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

<This is Fox Mulder.  Please wait for the beep.> <BEEEEEEEEP!> <buzz>
<crackle> Mulder? <hiss> I'm on the plane right now.  <hum> I'll be in a
little earlier than I thought, so you'll probably still be asleep when I
come in, okay?  <ssssstttttt> I'll use my key and try not to wake you up. 
I still can't access my messages, I think the tape ran out and now it
won't play back for me!  Would you have anything to do with that?" 

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

<Hi, you've reached Dana Scully.  Please leave a message and I'll get back
to you as soon as I can.> 
<BEEEEEEEEP!> 
"Me again.  Now I know what the problem was-the ringer was turned all the 
way down.  I'm still waiting for you to call, but I just wanted to hear 
your dulcet tones on your answering machine.  Um, the jello is hardening, 
by the way." 

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

<Hi, you've reached Dana Scully.  Please leave a message and I'll get 
back to you as soon as I can.>
<BEEEEEEEP!>
"Hi.  Just to let you know I'm actually heading over to your place to 
wait for you there, in case you get there before I do."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

<This is Fox Mulder.  Please wait for the beep.>
<BEEEEEEEEP!>
"Mulder!  Pick up the goddamn phone, it's five o'clock in the morning!  
I'm at the police station.  Airport security pulled me away as soon as I 
got off the plane to tell me there was an intruder in my apartment.  I 
guess my neighbour called it in.  I was worried about Krycek, so I just 
went downtown to wait for them to bring in the perp.  Where are you?"

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

<Hello, you've reached the office of Assistant Director Skinner.  If you 
would like to connect with the Violent Crimes Section, please press one 
now.  If you'd like to speak with an agent in the X-Files division, 
please press two now.  If you would like to report a crime being 
committed, please press three now.  If you'd like to leave a message for 
the Assistant Director's office, please stay on the line and wait for the 
beep.>
<BEEEEEEEEP!>
"This is Fox Mulder.  I just wanted to let you know that Agent Scully and 
I are both taking personal days today.  We have some sleep to catch up 
on."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Sorry about the lineup."
"That's okay."
"And the body cavity search."
"I don't want to talk about it."
"Mmmm, Mulder, how did you know lime was my favorite?"
<BRRRRING!>
<slurp> "Let the machine get it."
