WINTER OF OUR YOUTH
(when we pick over the past we glorify it)

you all did love him once,
not without cause:
what cause witholds you
then to mourn for him?

o judgement! thou art
fled to brutish beasts,
and men have lost their
reason... bear with me;

my heart is in the coffin
there with caesar, and
i must pause till it come
back to me

— william shakespeare,

AUTHOR'S NOTE...
i honestly have no idea what i'm doing or where this fic is going, so please bear with
me and my amateur writing skills lol

DISCLAIMER!
as you can tell, this is not canon-compliant. while it may feature mentions or aspects of
some canon, it's mostly fictional. additionally,
i recognize that hotch is probably heterosexual in the show, and while i respect his sexuality,
this is purely for my entertainment. finally, i
do not own the rights to criminal minds.

(also: major spoilers for episode 100).

DEDICATION!
to kendall
thank you for dealing with my spur-of-the
moment ideas and overreactions to this
show, amongst other things. also, thank you
for being supportive and volunteering to
take spoilers for my fics. i hope you enjoy
