Fangirl problems
So there I was, driving from Palo Alto to Pacifica after socially acceptable phone call hours (especially for East Coast people) and all I really wanted to do was call somebody (Nora, Amal, or any of the usual suspects, for a certain narrow definition of usual suspect that will be defined shortly) and wail about whether or not Mulder and Scully are Drift-compatible.
I think it depends on where in the series they are. At first, Scully hasn't come to trust Mulder; after a certain point, Mulder will be holding back; and then it all goes to hell. But in the sweet spot -- that's where we get the Drift.
Plus Mulder would be utterly gaga over the kaiju. EXTRATERRESTRIAL LIFE, MOTHERFUCKERS.
... I think I'm going to need to hit up AO3 to see if anyone's written any yet.

I accidentally got distracted and went house-hunting instead.

I agree that there would have been a lot of variation--I almost wonder if it would have varied day by day. Or if, perhaps, the experience of being able to Drift together would have helped them get and stay in sync.
I am so mad I haven't seen Pacific Rim yet.

Oh god, imagine the disasters they would have attempting to Drift on the bad days.
Mulder: Samanthaaaaaaaaaa! Scully: Oh God grant me patience I am the only sane one in this partnership. Shut up and drive, Mulder, or so help me I'll call you Fox.
