truly do not understand workplace drama. we're stuck here doing stupid bullshit for 8 hours and you want to make it worse? But on the other hand I love hearing about arguments that are not and never will be my problem

love a fictional character who will scowl and tell people “I’m not sick” “I’m not hungry” “I didn’t get injured”
meanwhile he has an extremely high fever, he ate some soup last week, and the blood is soaking through his jacket

thinking about spencer who never joined the fbi. who never got kidnapped, was never a drug addict, was never put into prison. spencer who ended up becoming a full-time academic, collecting degrees like old coins, and has taught a class in every department at his university, where he works as a professor and researcher. spencer who, because he mainly interacts with other academics, is never shut down because people think he's being a know it all or because he talks too much (every academic that i've ever met has been at least a little neurodivergent and so excited to hear about other people's field of study). spencer who never quite filled out, so he's still lanky and gawky. spencer who's a ball of sunshine, spending the weekends with his mom and buried in the library. spencer who is friends with all the librarians and picks up shifts to organize books when he's bored.
just. spencer with minimal trauma :(
#see i like fics where spencer doesnt work for the bau because of this potential#but i do think its a pretty essential part of his character that#he couldve done ANYTHING in the world seriously anything#but even post hankel when he was struggling and in s7 when he asked himself if he shouldve done something different with his life#both times he went 'nope lol im good with profiling serial criminals for the rest of my life'#A Character.#spencer reid#criminal minds

STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS INCOMING sooo are you guys ready to talk about how much of an asshole spencer reid is. because i sure am. this kid is a jerk. his most interesting character trait is the edge he has and i hate it when people (including the CM writers) paint him as some innocent angel when he’s very clearly just not. exhibit a. he grew up taking care of his mentally ill mother completely alone. this took away his chance to a happy childhood, shaped him as a person and had painful repercussions on how he views the world, on his interpersonal relationships, and on himself, and those repercussions affect him WAY into adulthood. he shouldn’t have had to do that especially considering his father lived a fucking block away from them. however once he turned eighteen he admitted his mom to a sanitarium and it’s heavily implied that he didn’t visit her for SIX YEARS. and it makes sense because he was finally going somewhere in life after being, for a lack of a better term, stuck with his mom up until he was eighteen. however he also blames himself for leaving her. because he did. he abandoned her to work across the country. and it’s such a complex and difficult choice that is his BIGGEST REGRET. he feels like a SINNER for leaving his mom. THAT'S what he confesses to in front of tobias hankel, not the time he killed a man. the time he left his mom when he was eighteen. the time he couldn’t keep living alone with her and take care of her anymore. and it’s all well and good that he had her institutionalized because he couldn’t have put his life on hold for her forever and she needed professional help but also FUCK he didn’t visit her for SIX YEARS. this kid is a dick lowkey
#spencer reid#criminal minds#criminals minds meta#do yall get what im trying to say??#admitting his mom was not a bad decision in any way shape or form#but he did practically abandon her. moved across the whole country almost as far away from her as he could#and wrote her letters every day so he wouldn’t feel guilty about not visiting her#i really wish they let his character be more openly selfish because its so much more interesting than the tragic nerd bit#elephants memory was an episode that did this right btw.#spencer 'blocks the teams line of fire and physically shields a serial killer from harm because he sees himself in him' reid#he can be so so selfish and such an asshole. hes so deeply flawed and THAT makes him interesting#diana reid
