Summary
“You don’t have to give me an answer right away, Ellie.” The words are said like they’re meant to be comforting, but Ellie knows it’s really just marking the end of the conversation. Which is annoying because Ellie has a lot more to say without really knowing how to say it and no answer to offer, just a tingling in the back of her nose and a gnawing in the pit of her stomach. “Think about it. No pressure.”
“Right,” she shoots back, tone dry. No pressure, just make this decision that could alter the entire course of your very newly stable lifestyle. Just decide if you want to enter into the hazy, uncertain territory of some man who might just be your biological father.
or:
The hard part’s over. Now they’re just supposed to figure out how to live. It’s harder than expected.
One-shots of Ellie and Joel’s life. A sequel to ‘of wounded minds and wounded souls (we are coming home)’

Summary
“I'm gay.”
He's looking at his feet, because he hasn't quite come to terms with the fact that he's saying this in a room where other people, strangers, can hear it.
But this is still the first time he's said it this way: out loud, in a declarative sentence. Being nervous is fine. Frank said that being nervous is fine, and Buck just said he's proud, and the only thought Eddie has in his head is that it's embarrassing he can't raise his head and say it like a man, so clearly, he's going to need to hang on to other people's words for the time being, someone who isn't his dad trying to explain the ways Eddie's allowed to inhabit the world.
He doesn't need to ask anyone's permission to be who he is. That's also a thing Frank said.
in which eddie attends a self-empowerment group for gbtq men to supplement his therapy, and is empowered to: forgive himself, say "i'm gay" to his own reflection in the mirror, accidentally adopt an adult, make fried rice, and tell his straight best friend that he's in love with him. not necessarily in that order.

Summary
Spencer Reid was a 29 year old FBI agent at BAU and his life was obviously perfect. He was intelligent, had a good job, was successful and lived in a happy relationship. The man by his side was named Tony and he was dark haired, tall and muscular. The perfect man... but at home, with the door closed and the curtains drawn, a different face emerged. He insulted, punched and kicked Spenger. But he still had his job, his colleagues and his boss: Aaron Hotchner. Was that enough?

Summary
Supervisory Special Agent Doctor Spencer Reid, possessor of three PhD's, an IQ of 187, and an eidetic memory, was undeniably a massive dork.
His tie was perpetually crooked, his sweater vest collection unnecessarily vast, and his hair in a permanent state of rebellion.
He didn't shake hands with strangers, he didn't have a good track record with kids or animals, with a few notable exceptions, and he was more likely to spout statistics than socially acceptable small talk.
His idea of a good time was to read ten books over the course of a day from the safety of his own couch and in perfect solitude.
In essence, he was a 60 year-old genius stuffed unceremoniously into the uncoordinated vessel of a lanky 20-something. Not, according to his admittedly limited understanding of human attraction, precisely a "catch."
So why on God's green earth did Aaron Hotchner keep looking at him like that?
