Prospective readers need to know that Skinner/Mulder stories comprise it almost exclusively. There are, however, two pieces bringing Krycek into the picture: “Trinity” and “Torrid.” As Heads Up… usual, M. Fae writes her own particular view of the Sk/M relation- Succor 17 ship and her stories range from romantic to hopeless; from no Skintone 33 sex shown at all to sex of the loveliest domination/submission Beacon in the Night 60 scenarios; from slightest pretext for a piece to fully-developed, A View from the Top 66 psychologically intriguing premises. Saving Walter S. 88 Heads & Tails marks the beginning of a new era for Oblique. Foxhole 103 When we began in 1988, zines were making the transition from The Gift 114 production on basic word processors to true desktop publishing. So, for the last decade, we’ve had an exciting time collecting j j j various writers’ wonderful slash stories and presenting them in graphically creative ways. Our earliest zines were a bit primitive, …Tails Down others rather baroque. Still, it remains a thrill when that first Movie Magic 8 copy of a new zine has been bound and can be held and admired Band of Gold 28 and absorbed. Skean Dhu 37 But things are changing quickly. We at Oblique have been Teal Dreams 55 online now for about seven years, but we have almost never Kill File 85 posted stories to lists or put them up in HTML format on Mortal Sin 92 anyone’s website. We are resistors. Controlling look and protect- Torrid 99 ing content are serious issues with us. We’ve finally decided to make the transition to the web through PDF format. Eventually j j j much (maybe all) of our catalogue of zines will be available for free download—in PDF rather than HTML format. This may annoy Terribly Short… some we realize; for us it’s the best way to continue to do what The Fox Who Cried Wolf 5 we love and to feel reasonably confident that others will see and Trinity 25 read our work as we envisioned it. Post-Redux II 52 Our website will also make available stories that were printed elsewhere or which come from authors who also wish to have j j j their work available in something more than straight HTML. When our website is finally open for business—and it’s not, as of …Scully’s in Town February 1999—Heads & Tails will be the first zine to appear. I Paper Hearts 14 should also note, that when Heads & Tails does become available The Ice Queen Cometh 82 for download, it will be in a slightly corrected form. As you read A Proper Charlie 109 through this issue, take a look at the footers. They’re inconsis- tent. Somewhere in the middle of the project, the zine changed from being a new Pæan to Priapus to being a new Bene Dictum. Some of the footers stayed under the old title. Oh, well, at least we’ve spotted this typo before the zine was delivered to our readers. Usually the first mistake becomes visible as we are showing off a new zine to a reader. I, of course, take all responsi- bility for this and other typos. And as the X-Files has a North American setting, I have tried to edit out all of the thoroughly Scottish/British words and phrases that M. Fae tried to make Mulder say. I do not, though, have anything to do with M. Fae’s commas. She keeps sneaking them in as fast as I can delete them. Enjoy! —Caroline K. Carbis, Editor j Footers have been corrected. Feb. 2000 The Fox Who j Cried Wolf No redeeming qualities whatsoever; no attempt made to tell a story, just a very short slice of one extreme possibility for Skinner and Mulder’s life; the result of thinking just what a brat Mulder would be if bottoms really were always and invariably the ones actually in charge! Mulder is lying, spread tighter than the sheets, across Skinner’s bed. His cock is erect, nearly purple, his balls swollen, j the glint of cockring and the leather patina of his English cage glinting with every movement of his body. And move he does: with every stinging blow of the crop, Mulder arches, and writhes, and pulls away, only to whimper, and beg: “More! Please, sir, again!” Skinner trails the crop along Mulder’s cock, sliding it be- tween the straps of the cage and the hypersensitivity of Mulder’s cock, the crop so cool against Mulder’s skin. “No,” he says, using the flat tab on the handle to flick at Mulder’s nipples, so red and bruised from being tied like that. “You’re enjoying yourself entirely too much. And you know what they say, Fox—” he steps away from the bed, Mulder craning his neck to watch as Skinner puts the crop back in the old Marine locker, “a change is as good as a rest.” Mulder groans, not in pleasure, not in pain, as Skinner comes back, candles in his hands. “Sorry?” Skinner says, quite pleasantly, although his hand is harsh as it whacks down on Mulder’s cock, resulting in an exquisitely agonized scream. “Did you just say ‘no’?” Mulder is too busy gasping for air to answer. “I know this bores you, Fox,” Skinner says, lighting the candles, turning them carefully to maximize the melting of the wax, “but I like it. You’ve had your whipping, you’ve had your fucking, you’ve had your dildo, you’ve had your fisting. This—” the first sighing hiss as the hot wax pours onto underarm hair, “is for me.” Mulder simply lies there, glaring at Skinner, as the wax pours onto him, the pain not enough, the ritual leaving him cold. j Bene Dictum IV: Heads & Tails by M.

I don’t ‘have to’ anything. The Until Skinner looks into Mulder’s eyes. problem with the contract, boy, is that you broke it.” Until Skinner knows. “Sir, I don’t want to argue with you—” And Mulder’s cocky, mocking grin abruptly Skinner talks right over him, ignoring him. “The dies. safeword is real, boy.
