I'm a grown ass woman and I still squeal, giggle and kick my legs in the air when I see my old man on TV.

“I’ve always heard every ending is also a beginning - we just don’t know it at the time. I’d like to believe that’s true.”

The way JJ looks at Emily…

Chapters: 1/1 Fandom: Criminal Minds (US TV) Rating: Mature Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Jennifer "JJ" Jareau/Emily Prentiss Characters: Jennifer "JJ" Jareau, Emily Prentiss, Henry LaMontagne, William LaMontagne Jr., Derek Morgan (Criminal Minds) Additional Tags: past Willifer, the rest of the team show up in part, the usual, Angst, Mentions the Doyle arc, mentions the events of 200, injury description, Canon-Typical Violence, Miscarriage, Adultery, Pretty much a love letter to s8&9 Jennifer Jareau, Longing, heart ache, all that good stuff Summary:

Sometimes it’s enough, the huff of Emily’s breath in her ears, if she squeezes her eyes closed it’s like she’s there. JJ can imagine the scent of her, almost feel her fingers brushing over the soft skin of her wrist, like if she opens her eyes, she’ll be met with the point of Emily’s nose a hair away from hers, about to nudge against her cheek, mouth poised above hers in a silent question. It only ever lasts for a few beats, and then she’s propelled back into the reality of a cellphone on her pillow in lieu of a warm body, nothing to greet her but the cold stillness of her empty apartment.

Or, JJ calls bullshit on the old idiom that absence makes the heart grow fonder, and deals with her world falling apart in the process.

It's interesting to note how the Tabris Origin, which involves a wedding, kidnapping and attempted sexual harassment, and fighting your way through an estate full of guards, is the Origin where gender plays a huge role in what story you experience. M!Tabris will always storm the castle coming to the rescue of his cousin and his betrothed, while F!Tabris will always have to fight her way out because the men in her life can't fully protect her (Nelaros dies, Soris literally hands her the sword, Cyrion is powerless to stop the abduction. Okay, this may be a little unfair to Soris who does fight side by side with Tabris and counsels caution the same way regardless of Tabris's gender). I'd go so far as to say that Tabris is the only Origin where the gender of your PC has a definite impact on the story.

TLDR to the rant in the tags: Tabris is constrained on all sides by being an elf, by their gender, in part by their family, and by society at large (both the Alienage and the wider city).

Diana: it’s ok your friend JJ stopped by you didn’t mention how pretty she is.

Spencer: MOM she’s married!

Spencer under his breath: ok shes going back to Houston

[comfortable-hobbit-hole]

I just finished watching Season 1 of Criminal Minds and I have thoughts and feelings:

Firstly, SUCH BABIES!!! I saw sporadic episodes from later series in my teens but but they are all so sweet and round cheeked and unbroken and adorable! I spent the first half of the series just going ‘awwww’ in increasing volume

Secondly, Gideon is a raging arsehole. I found myself counting how many times he would have breached professional ethics in a single episode on numerous occasions. I find him a vaguely empathetic but deeply annoying character because I can’t stop going ‘STOP MAKING IT WORSE FOR YOUR DAMN TEAM BY MAKING EVERYONE USEFUL WANT TO HIT YOU IN THE FACE WITH A BRICK!’

Thirdly, and I gather from the cm tumblr discourse that this will be A Thing, does no one ever actually support their colleagues emotionally??? They are meant to be psychologists and are all like ‘put it in a box and it’ll be fine’ ‘we all wake up screaming and that’s a wonderful thing’ ‘you look like your having a rough time, have more stimulants and an insensitive joke’. They clearly care for one another but seem so unbelievably inept.

Fourthly, I’m being forcibly reminded of how much American cutlery etiquette hurts my soul. The close up at the start of Charm and Harm had me actually raging. Why? Why? Why? Americans - I know the civil war was a thing and your table manners have origins in that time period, but you have had access to both knives AND forks for quite some time now. There is no need to hold your cutlery like tiny spears anymore.

Fifthly, it’s awesome to see back to what we all thought cutting edge tech was in 2005. The admin staff extras pushing giant trolleys, and bulky computer monitors, and the episode where they were getting scanned to go into CIA headquarters and the guns (and only the guns, no other metal) mysteriously glowed Flubber-green on the monitors and had little fuzzy halos! All the flip phones! The nostalgia is real.

Sixthly, (note to self to use a numerical list next time, yes I’ll be doing this again!) the props and special effects are highly entertaining. The horridly fake wounds on people who have experienced terrible things and are only strategically scuffed up, the full face of makeup on people who are in bed (though that is a tv perennial), vaguely pink blood smears, the mysterious lack of insulation on the kid in the roof when enough of it had flaked off and fallen down for them to find it on a broom downstairs. I am not complaining even slightly, it’s highly amusing and I sincerely hope this adherence to budget and time constraints continues in subsequent seasons.

Seventhly, the score writers must have had so much fun! It’s brilliantly melodramatic and I keep giggling. I watched a few episodes from later series with my parents as a not-quite-so-tiny hobbit and remember always asking them to put on subtitles and turn the sound off because I was too jumpy even though I liked the plot. Now, as an adult, I totally get it. There’s not one 3 minute scene in that series without some kind of tension building strings or beat behind it. I’m almost keen to hunt down a score as a gym soundtrack, kinda like one of those zombie run podcast things.

Eighthly, why is Hotch so dumb?! I just watched the Fisher King and it ends with the supposed Normal Sensible Capable Family Man trying to clean dried blood, off a white wall, with cold water and a rag. And he then runs said rag in circles over the writing, smearing blood everywhere with no difference to the underlying letters. Yes, I know it’s a fictional character, and an actor dealing with a fake wall, but it made me very mad. He didn’t even spray it with vinegar first! Or any other cleaning product! 😭 I pity Elle’s wall. And her for having to clean it all over again when he’s ‘done’.

Other notes: I adore the JJ/Garcia friendship. Actually, everything about Garcia as a character. She’s wonderful and JJ is showing potential to be very funny. I hope that continues too. I want to give Reid a warm blanket, a good meal and tell him that he is enough. Maybe also keep him away from caffeine for 72 hours and see if he winds down slightly.

The peeps in general have stolen my heart and I want them all to be safe and well and live happy and fulfilling lives with minimal external disturbances. We all know that ain’t happening but I take solace in the fact that somewhere in my heart, on a streaming service, on DVDs, and maybe a crazy multiverse, it will always be Season 1.

Yes, I’m 17 years late to the party. But, now I’m here, I am having a great time. I look forward to seeing how wrong I am about stuff over the next few seasons!

Stay tuned for Hobbit Reflects on TV for series 2 at some unspecified date in the future.
