Characters:  Kitty Pryde, Dana Scully, Fox Mulder, Will Mulder
Setting:  Shades of Gray!Verse
Prompt:  "My Love" by the Crash Kings

Will and Mulder waited outside the courthouse.  Will was impatient, running in circles around the fountain, while Mulder was content to people watch.

Inside the judge's chambers, Kitty and Dana signed the final paperwork.  With a swift bang of his gavel, months of work were realized.  "By the power vested in me by the State of New York, I hereby declare this adoption finalized.  Dana Scully, you are now the proud parent of Katherine Anne Scully." 

Sure, it was only three months until Kitty's eighteenth birthday.  The point of the adoption wasn't to ensure she'd be cared for - Dana, Mulder and Will had already been doing that.  It was a healing for all of them, a way of formally recognizing what they'd all realized they felt in their hearts.

Kitty and Dana stepped out of the front doors of the courthouse and joined their male counterparts waiting outside.  Will ran up to them with a smile.  "Is it done?" he asked.  Dana nodded, then smiled at Mulder.  Will threw his arms around Kitty's waist.  "Now you're my big sister!"

Mulder put an arm around the girl's shoulders, taking Dana's hand with his spare one.  "Let's go home."

If you ever wanted to do this, we can arrange this if you want.

Though you don't have to take the name Scully, you can keep Pryde. I know Mulder and Will would love to have you as part of the family.

Dana... it was just a story.

I'd be 18 by the time it went through, anyway.

Just saying, if you wanted to. And I now people, it could be sped up. But you are almost 18, and you don't need a judge to make that a fact.
