Sunset Valley [the x-files theme song]

It takes Lex by surprise when the dark male states he can help and he lifts his head, eyes widened a little. He describes the Tavi he remembers before he left and he can’t stop the smile from forming on his features. He thought he’d lost any drive he had but the idea that he might get to see his sister overwhelms him. He lets the hope go and refills him and somewhere in the back of his mind he tries to tell himself to relax. That the chances this man knows where his sister is isn’t as likely as he’d made it seem. That voice doesn’t live very long.

“Really?” he asks and instinctively he takes a step forward, reducing the space between them. He doesn’t even know the other but he’d been so easy to throw his hope into. “Stubborn is a little bit of an understatement, I think.” 

A laugh spills from his muzzle and despite the strain it takes to keep himself standing, his demeanor changes enough. “I’m Lex, by the way.”
