History WMG / TheXFiles

[[WMG:The "can imagine reality different guy" mentioned in the "Aliens vs...." guess is LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya.]]

[[WMG: The X-Files takes place in the future of ''Manga/{{Kuroshitsuji}}'']]

So this tropers WMG is that contrary to the above theories literally ALL of the spiritually, superpowered, and monsterous paranormal elements are connected and actively working for the conspiracy. Technically all this can be proven by one simple trope. Mulder believed at first that all these creatures were connected by or to the conspiracy in some shape or form and since the AllTheoriesAreTrue trope was in full effect on this show it probably was true.

However if anyone has any other theories about this please feel free to add.

Scully is shown to be very ambitious and careers-oriented, especially in the early seasons. She eventually becomes head of the Bureau as Mulder predicted in "Squeeze".

Having been forgiven the death sentence, having successfully cracked up the case (the one with the evil doctors’ operations in "I Want to Believe") and being a hero at the Bureau once again, Mulder decides to join the FBI again. AD Skinner reopens the X-Files and Mulder becomes its unit leader. He gets Agent Doggett and Agent Reyes on his team, plus some more up-and-coming promising young agents. Scully decides to give up her brilliant career in medicine yet again as well and becomes the X-Files lead science investigator. The team works mainly on the black oil vaccine. Scully retrieves some of the Well-Manicured Man research and being the medical genius she is, she develops a new and improved vaccine. The team has some trouble administering it as it must be kept secret so that the alien colonists would not get suspicious. People are now seriously ProperlyParanoid and do not know what to make out of it, but the Army and CIA are preparing for the invasion, collaborating with other state governments and their secret agencies. Mulder is torn as he wants to be telling people '''the truth''', yet he wants to be able to save them. The team's lab also creates and tests weapons using that metal which is the aliens’ kryptonite. The strong vaccine starts reversing the process with Billy Miles-like alien pre-settlers. They find a top secret research facility with children whose parents were abductees. One boy looks suspiciously similar to a photo of six-years-old Mulder. Yeah, you know who he is. William was abducted from the Van de Kamps’ and taken to be tested by the alien conspiracy and the colonists, but his mother’s vaccine is not even necessary because he was immune to the virus from the start. On top of that, while investigating, they also find Mulder’s sister. It turns out the recent tissue from "Paper Clip" was real and Cassandra Spender was right. It was the take-in by the fairies/angels that was fake and RedHerring! When the aliens come at last, they are horrified to find out that not only are their allies useless, but they cannot use humans to host their bodies to fully develop any more. And in addition, people kick their butts and destroy them completely (or force them to return to their new planets). Scully then becomes head of the Bureau as Mulder predicted in "Squeeze". She even skips AD position and section chief position because she's that good. The Mulders are now a fairly happy family, save for some moments when Bill Scully pesters Dana that she should have never given up William in the first place and that she should have stayed practising medicine.

According to Season 11, it was because of Global Warming.

... at least until a new, more powerful agency arose in the federal government: [[UsefulNotes/TheWarOnTerror Homeland Security.]] With a new investigative body at work in the US government, new resources could be directed to cases that would formerly have fallen under the purview of the X-Files. And when an organization of super scientists began demonstrating mad science on a massively public scale in anticipation of a [[NotSoDifferent global war with another world]], Homeland Security was forced to set up a joint task force with the FBI in the form of Fringe Division. Though their work is also secretive, the combination of a much higher profile and nearly limitless resources mean Fringe Division is much harder for the Conspiracy to control. Logically, this would disrupt or even delay the colonization plan (which is good, since the Aliens would have had to fight the Observers for control of Earth, alongside all the other monsters of the week).

* [[{{Transgender}} Denise Bryson]] was either yet another wrinkle in the tapestry of Mulder's complex biography and sexual identity, or possibly a secret twin/clone sibling with an origin wrapped up in the Conspiracy.

* Telepaths are Vorlon creations. That said, Lee Crawford, the Senator who created the Psi Corps precursor was almost certainly Syndicate and so his organization was created in their image. Meanwhile, on the "Colonist" side, the Streib could've and would've done everything in the show, seeing as they work for the Shadows and experiments are their whole thing. The Black Oil was Shadow tech. The Vree were scapegoats, because they look similar. Of course, when the Vorlons got wind of it, they did their own thing- "rescued" Samatha to discover the extent of the shenanigans and field-tested their own prototype, Gibson Praise.

There's quite a lot of discontinuity in play here. But what if Seasons 1-9 (& ''Fight the Future'') are set in one universe while Seasons 10-11 (and possibly ''I Want to Believe'') are set in another? Let's call these universes "Earth-X1" & "Earth-X2". Let's also assume Earth-X2 is the same universe visited in the 9th season episode "4-D". We never learned much of Earth-X2; it was quite similar to Earth-X1, but there were differences. Perhaps the Earth-X1 & Earth-X2 Mytharcs were subtly yet innately different in nature; perhaps the Earth-X2 Scully didn't experience the same life-changing events Earth-X1 Scully went through; perhaps the Earth-X2 CSM suffered less grievous burns; etc. This would also explain Doggett's absence in the revival; he went to and died on Earth-X1; from the perspective of everyone on Earth-X2, he mysteriously disappeared in 2001 and has never been seen since.

Continuity between the show's original run and the revival has been lax. Take for example the Mytharc. From 1993 to 2002, the nature of the conspiracy was quite clear: malevolent aliens, in league with a human shadow government, were making plans to colonize Earth and subjugate the human race. Then Season 10 presented an alternate explanation: the shadow government ''alone'' was behind the conspiracy; the aliens were benign and had never planned to invade Earth. Then there are the lesser yet no less evident examples. In the 8th & 9th seasons, Scully had relaxed her skepticism and became a believer in the paranormal; this was undone in the revival. Scully had also become an ageless immortal in the 6th season episode "Tithonus"; she's visibly aged since the 9th season. Then there's CSM & Doggett. CSM was clearly incinerated in "The Truth" — we saw his charred skeleton! — yet he returned in the revival, alive if severely scarred. As for Doggett, he was neither mentioned nor alluded to.

* [[{{Transsexual}} Denise Bryson]] was either yet another wrinkle in the tapestry of Mulder's complex biography and sexual identity, or possibly a secret twin/clone sibling with an origin wrapped up in the Conspiracy.

[[WMG:''Series/{{Mash}} and ''Series/TheXFiles'' are set in the same continuity, and either Bill Mulder or the CSM was Major Flagg (Ed Winter's character) from ''M*A*S*H'']]

** [[spoiler: Confirmed in the Season 11 episode "[[Recap/TheXFilesMiniseriesE08This This]]".]]

We know GillianAnderson [[http://tvline.com/2017/12/31/gillian-anderson-leaving-the-x-files-season-11-scully/ is retiring from the X-Files]]. That usually entails "Author, please kill my character." '''But''' we also know, from Recap/TheXFilesS03E04ClydeBruckmansFinalRepose, that Scully "won't die." So my hypothesis is: Mr. Bruckman's statement is relative to the spacetime continuum he lives in. If Scully is transported to another, detached Universe, which is not "in sync" with the one she's from, and lives out the rest of her days there, then from the perspective of someone in her Universe she'll "never die."

The Xenomorphs: Have a parasitic multi stage life cycle, their immature form bursts out of the hosts chests and runs off to find somewhere to grow into maturity, their mature form is a fang claw murder machine, their ultimate form is the Queen, they have acid for blood. The Grays: have a parasitic multi stage life cycle, it starts with the black oil which infects a host, their immature form bursts out of the hosts chest, their immature form is a fang claw murder machine that runs off to find somewhere to grow into maturity, it's mature form is an intelligent exobiological intelligence. This means if xenomorphs facehugged a Gray when the chestburster exploded out it would spray black oil everywhere which would start the life cycle over. If the black oil infected a xenomorph the acid blood would dissolve it. In essence the two species are at a stalemate with each other. I contend they come from the same biosphere, but the Grays are the intelligent species that evolved there while the xenomprhs are the equivalent of some sort of vermin, the Gray version of a sewer rat.
