Criminal Minds One-Shots

the New Recruit

The BAU team found themselves facing an unprecedented workload, with cases piling up faster than they could handle. In a desperate bid to ease the strain, they decided to recruit a new member to their ranks. And where better to find top talent than within the ranks of Tobias Fornell's team?

Enter Agent Riley Thompson, a rising star in Fornell's unit, known for her sharp mind, quick wit, and uncanny ability to read people. The BAU team had heard whispers of her prowess in the field, but nothing could have prepared them for the whirlwind that was Agent Thompson.

As the interview began, it quickly became apparent that Agent Thompson was not your average recruit. Within minutes, she had sized up each member of the team with unsettling accuracy, leaving them feeling exposed and vulnerable beneath her penetrating gaze.

JJ and Reid exchanged a nervous glance as Agent Thompson casually mentioned their mutual attraction, her observations hitting uncomfortably close to home. Emily's cheeks flushed crimson as Agent Thompson subtly hinted at her crush on a certain female agent who had helped with her interview. And Hotch's jaw tightened with barely concealed rage as Agent Thompson zeroed in on his obvious disdain for needing a new member.

But it was Morgan who found himself most unnerved by Agent Thompson's presence. Try as he might to maintain his usual charm and composure, he couldn't shake the feeling that Agent Thompson was playing him like a fiddle. Her coy smiles and suggestive remarks left him feeling off-balance and more than a little rattled.

As the interview drew to a close, the BAU team found themselves grappling with a whirlwind of emotions. On one hand, they couldn't deny Agent Thompson's impressive skills and keen insight. But on the other hand, her uncanny ability to unravel their secrets left them feeling distinctly uneasy.

In the end, the decision to recruit Agent Thompson was met with a mixture of trepidation and begrudging admiration. For better or worse, she was now a part of their team – a force to be reckoned with in the world of criminal profiling. And as they prepared to embark on their next case together, the BAU team braced themselves for the unpredictable journey that lay ahead.
