JJ doesn’t ask to come back.

She begs Emily, eyes red, voice steady enough.

Emily watches her like someone watching a crack form in a dam.

She says “wheels up” anyway.

JJ smiles thank you.

Emily doesn't smile back.

“Losing a child,” Will’s mom says, “isn’t like losing a husband.”

JJ doesn’t know what to say.

Emily’s jaw tightens.

She’s seen JJ live through, now, both.

[cannonqueerbait]

Do you enjoy inflicting mental pain? On me specifically? /j

yes. it’s community service, actually. you’re welcome 🫡

[cannonqueerbait]

emily laughs politely at tara’s joke.

jj shifts in her seat.

her husband is dead.

her kids are asleep.

but her ring still fits.

and emily still won’t look at her.

Garcia invites them all to dinner.

JJ brings Will.

Emily brings wine.

[cannonqueerbait]

jj tucks a photo of henry into her wallet.

emily catches herself staring.

not at the kid.

at jj’s hands.

she wonders what they’d feel like if they didn’t belong to someone else.

[cannonqueerbait]

emily hears jj laugh through her office wall.

the warm, unguarded kind.

the kind emily hasn’t heard in years.

not since the ring.

not since paris.

I LOVE IT WHEN PEOPLE GET IDEAS FROM MY POSTS 🤸

there’s a picture of jj’s family on her desk.

and one day, emily catches herself straightening it.

like it makes a difference. like it’s any of her business.

like she didn’t once dream of being in it.

[cannonqueerbait]

she has permission to do anything to me

[cannonqueerbait]

We as fans can never be the top Jemily Shippers when THESE are the actors

I actually love them 😂

[cannonqueerbait]

Penelope must give the best hugs

one singular like and my psych degree is popping off about this episode

I actually find it really funny that, from what I can tell, Emily subscribes to the views of Sigmund Freud.

We were given such lines as “fussy anal-retentive neat-freak,” about Rossi, and “I’m giving him what he wants. Mommy,” in the Oedipus Wrecks episode. It’s hilarious to me.

(Makes sense, she has mommy issues herself clearly 💀 nobody who doesn’t have serious problems unironically calls their mom ‘mother’)

“She’s married,” Garcia whispers.

Emily doesn’t look away.

“Yeah.”

She says it like a funeral.
