#HotchReid

[sylix-royalty]

I’m getting back into writing, so have a Hotch/Reid snippet!

can… can i have a hug? please?

And a little bit of

oh, sweetheart- come here.

With a dash of

how long has it been since someone hugged you?

Type: Angsty Fluff

Warnings: Kinda just sad, brief mention of drugs

Spencer was very obviously the most touch starved of the group. It wasn’t to no fault of his, not really. It was clear he didn’t prefer physical contact most of the time, but Aaron wasn’t stupid. Aaron knew that despite Spencer’s sensory issues and mild germaphobic tendencies, he really just wanted to be hugged sometimes.

It was more obvious after some cases, when his arms wrapped around himself as he sat alone on the back of the plane, curled up as staring out of the window rather than reading whatever book he’d already read 7 or 8 times that week. It was only Wednesday after all.

It was less obvious after others, the itch of his hands as he read, how they’d twitch before he’d read a page. Aaron noticed, but he wasn’t sure that the others did, too careful of Spencer sensory. And Spencer clearly didn’t want to add more fuel to the fire of his own mind by his need of physical contact. But, Aaron wasn’t stupid. He was a profiler for a reason. But he wasn’t just going to jump down Spencer’s throat like that, putting him on the spot would be unhelpful and most likely backfire.

So, Aaron watched more intentionally. Trying to give an obvious sign to Spencer that he was here for him, should Spencer need him. It took a while, longer than Aaron liked to admit, but finally Spencer came into his office after hours.

The case had been a bad one. Having to deal with not only children, but Spencer was taken as a hostage and belittled so bad that Aaron was on the verge of shooting the man just to make him shut the hell up for good. Of course he couldn’t, that would risk his job, and more importantly Spencer’s life, but the thought definitely crossed his mind.

“Do you mind if I sit?” Spencer asked softly, and Aaron nodded slowly.

“Stay as long as you need,” he said gently, trying not to use that boss tone he knew he had. Spencer nodded, noting the attempt, and sat on the couch, curled up with his arms around himself once again, staring at the wall.

Aaron worked in silence, not going to push or pry answers out of the younger. He knew Spencer was struggling, and he had a terrible reputation when it came to asking for help. But Aaron hoped he was slowly working through that.

“You don’t believe him, do you?” Spencer whispered, finally. “You don’t… you don’t see me as a… drugged up, ratty—“

“No, Spencer,” Aaron cut him off, not allowing Spencer to repeat the words of the UnSub. “I don’t see you like that. No one does.”

“I do,” Spencer whispered, “I feel like that, sometimes. Sometimes I wonder if everything’s worth it.”

“It’s all worth it,” Aaron whispered.

“You would say that,” Spencer whispered, and Aaron set his pen down.

“Meaning?” Aaron asked without trying to sound offended or offput.

“Meaning you see me,” Spencer explained. “You see the man I’m trying to be. You… you understand… who I am in a way that most other’s can’t.”

“I’m perceptive,” Aaron reasoned.

“Yes,” Spencer agreed. “But you also care.”

“This team cares about you,” Aaron reasoned.

“They do,” Spencer nodded. “But they care so much about one thing, something you’ve been… overlooking lately.”

Aaron blinked.

“You’ve been staring at me, after cases. Reading me. I see your eyes. I feel them.”

“If I’ve made you uncomfortable, that wasn’t my intention,” Aaron promised.

“No, I know,” Spencer promised. “I just…” he inhaled slowly, his arms falling from where they were wrapped around him. “Can I have… have a hug? Please?”

Aaron exhaled slowly from where he sat, finally hearing the words come from Spencer’s mouth almost made him jump out of his chair. He still moved a bit too quick, but Spencer didn’t seem to mind or care as he quickly got off the couch, hearing Aaron’s gentle “oh sweetheart, come here,” and met Aaron halfway, wrapping his arms around Aaron’s shoulders, and Aaron’s arms around his waist.

Spencer almost broke right there. But Aaron held him up strong, as per usual. He kept his hold for as long as Spencer needed, or wanted, which was longer than he originally calculated.

“When was the last time someone hugged you?” Aaron whispered into his ear.

“Too long,” Spencer whispered, voice broken and scraggly as he pushed his nose into Aaron’s shoulder.

“Don’t let it ever be that long again,” Aaron whispered.

“I’m here, Spence. I’m right here.”

best ship dynamic is everyone thinking person a is a badass and person b is a softie but it turns out to be the other way around

[her-soliloquies]

Reading fanfiction on ao3 is like being addicted to drugs.

The first time you read one you experience this immense amount of euphoria and satisfaction (because of a well-done story or your ship having a solid dynamic etc.)

The high lasts for quite some time until you want way more of that special feeling so you read more and more until eventually nothing can satisfy you anymore.

But instead of trying to quit, we embrace the madness and let it take us wherever it wants.

And I think that's beautiful.

(read under the line for a word of caution)

It came to my attention that this may be trivializing the pain that actual drug addicts go through. That was not the purpose guys. Those are obviously not the same and I apologize if it seemed like that was my intention. It wasn't.

Stay safe.

What they don’t know won’t hurt them

f!reader x aaron “hotch” hotchner (18+)

Imagine being literal Enemies to Lovers with Hotch..

The way you absolutely aggravate him in so many ways- he can’t stand it. The way he nearly treats you as if you yourself is an unsub is insane. You piss him off.

The feeling’s mutual. You couldn’t stand him much either. You always seemed to compete in a way. The team would expect that of Morgan- but Hotch? It’s a shocker that even Rossi brought to attention.

He never paired you together with him even on cases. You never worked together it seemed. You never sat close on the jet- hell even when you all went to Rossi’s on the weekends you were on opposite ends of the marble counter.

It made the team wonder just what was wrong. It made Garcia upset when she brought up the issue between you two, Hotch telling her quickly to “drop it, Penelope.” They had no idea why you two just hated each other so much.

They had no idea…

“That’s a good girl..take it like I know you can.” A soft groan fell from Aaron’s lips. You moan, hands gripping his shoulders while you bounced on his cock. His hands held onto your hips, his tongue darting out to lick your nipple. Your perfect breast bouncing to the rhythm you came down to. “Hotch-“ You whimpered out. One of his hands moved to rub over your sensitive clit. Your pussy was so wet from his big cock fucking so deeply into you.

He hit that sweet spot inside of you over and over. How you wanted him to lay you over his desk and take you there like he had done the first time. Or how he held your head against the polished wood while your hands were behind your back, his cock deep inside of you. The door was shut and locked, the blinds closed. Everyone was outside- it was a normal work day. They’d never know you were riding Hotch, him filling your cunt like he promised he would. They’d never know. They didn’t have to know.

They didn’t understand all of that hate was sexual frustration the two of you quickly fixed when it became too much.

“I’m-I’m cumming..” Your thighs shook. There’s a small smile in his face, his lips moving over to kiss yours, “Cum for me.. my good girl..”

“Oh fuck-“ Your eyes rolled as that wave washed over you. You mentally couldn’t take another ‘good girl’ out of him.

No one ever talks about the fact that Elle Greenaway, Aaron Hotchner, and Spencer Reid all lived at the same apartment complex, The Langham.

We see Elle leaving her apartment when Hotch is following her in 2x6 - maybe that is where he learned about the apartment complex. We can also see Elle getting into her car, which has Virginia plates, so we know this apartment complex is in Virginia - not D.C.

In 5x1, we see Emily go to Hotch's apartment to check on him. This is also when we learn that Hotch is on the first floor in apartment 121. We later see him in this same apartment with Jack and Beth in 7x23 and when he is arrested in 11x22, just to name a few.

We see the outside of Spencer's apartment in 9x24 when Alex goes to leave after taking Spencer home. Spencer looks outside and watches Alex get into a taxi. We can see part of the green canopy and the street when Alex walks, but we can also see Spencer standing at the window. The window matches the same windows on The Langham. We can even see a spot on the sidewalk where the street lamp used to be. This is also when we learn that Spencer is on the second floor, apartment 23.

In 1x22, we see Elle be attacked in her home - not an apartment - meaning she moved into Langham apartments after her attack.

Up until Hotch was divorced, he lived in his home in Arlington, Virginia with Haley and Jack - so we know he moved into the complex sometime around season three or four.

We didn't see Spencer's apartment until season eight but we know in 3x2 that Spencer's Volvo has Washington D.C. plates but when we see his car again in 10x13, he had Virginia plates. We can assume that means that Spencer moved from Washington D.C. to the Langham apartments in Virginia at some point between season three and season eight.

Meaning, Elle lived in the Langham apartments before Hotch and Spencer - but Hotch and Spencer lived there only one floor apart at the same time.

#criminal minds #spencer reid #aaron hotchner #elle greenaway #hotchreid #because come on they lived in the same apartment building #long post #idk what to even tag this info dump #criminal minds info dump #the last photo of the building I got from google images with the time set to 2011 #fun fact #the building is in LA Cali #and if you look at it in street view through the different years you can see film crew people around it #not CM film people but just other people using the building #it also changes names sometimes to match what the people filming want to see #but it is more fun to think of them as lowkey roomies #criminal minds facts
