Summary
Wintertime 1998. Mulder and Scully are catching their breath after the very unwanted expedition to the Arctic. They made it off the tremendous UFO and escaped the aliens on the whole. That is what matters. Now they are safe in a hospital. Mulder even remembers the significance of the exact date. Scully, loopy on pain medication, really doesn't. That said? Both she and Mulder still have a conversation about their futures together. Even old childhood memories.
Christmas Eve 1998. Reality kicks in for Mulder and Scully after having spent the night up with Maurice and Lyda, the very peculiar and semi-well-intentioned holiday spirits. Bad weather means that they need to find somewhere to properly bunker some place with proper space, beds, and food. So they find what they need. But because they are feeling alive and in love, they act even further on the feelings they have for one another. And a new conversation about their futures happens. More ideas for the future are outlined.
Christmas 2021. Older and content, Mulder and Scully are enjoying the holidays as they remember, "Anything is possible when you have each other."

Summary
The final scene of Triangle, told five ways.
"It is at this moment, the moment of having felt the truth and the succor of her belief in him, that he realizes he is in love with her. He has felt every constituent part of this feeling before, the friendship, the attraction, the excitement, the certainty, the desperation, the almost irresistible urge to kiss her, but never all at once. It coalesces in a sharp and sudden realization, the obviousness of which is almost insulting to him, in a certain light. How has he never managed to articulate it to himself in this way? How has he resisted this so long?"
