Summary
*In Dirty Dreams
“So… when, why? It looks hot, by the way. Very authoritative.”
“If by authoritative, you mean ‘white men don’t have a clue how to deal with a woman who doesn’t prioritise being conventionally attractive to them above everything else, so it throws them off’, then sure.”
In which grey-haired Emily Prentiss is irresistible, even (especially) to a newly-divorced Jennifer Jareau (i.e. my love letter to Emily Prentiss).
Starts pre-CME, eventually becomes a CME rewrite. Genuine slow-burn, so enjoy the show. May end up as E, we'll see how the mood takes me. 25 chapters is an ~estimate.

Summary
“You know,” Emily hesitated, “you can say whatever you need to. Tomorrow I may not matter to you so what do you have to lose?”
Spoiler alert....she does matter. In more ways than one.
Or the stranger JJ met the night before at a bar shows up in her superior's office primed and ready to not only fill the empty spot on the team, but fill an incredibly large void in JJ's life.

Summary
They keep walking. JJ thinks of Paris. That one night—late November, raining, everything soaked to the bone. JJ had forgotten the key to their rented apartment. Emily, without hesitation, had pulled a bobby pin from JJ’s hair and knelt down at the lock like she’d been waiting for this moment all of her life. She looked up at her, eyes bright, and said, “Told you I was built for a life of crime.”
JJ had laughed so hard she choked on the rain.
God, she’d forgotten how good it feels to laugh with Emily. It’s like warming your hands on a stove you thought was broken.
She says, “I have tea at home. And Henry was asking for you. You could—”
Emily cuts in gently, a small smile playing on her lips. “You know I will, Jayj.”

or: Emily and JJ after 18x03, slowly figuring out what they mean to each other.
