HOW CAN WE COMPETE? "Do you do elbow bumps?" ••• Joining the Behavioural Analysis Unit of the FBI was how Jodi McCoy was able to grasp just how important family is to development. It was something she hadn't had in years, and while she knew they would all get along well, after just six months of knowing her team she knew she would die for them. But upon her being hired, it was suggested by her boss that she partner up with the guy on the team a year younger than herself; smart, awkward, unable to shoot and kind-of-lanky Spencer Reid. Through ups and downs, sadistic unsubs, and fickle emotions Jodi is constantly forced to show just how far she would go for the victims of serial killers and their families, and these six people. These very important six people. And every time, it's one step further than the last. [SPENCER REID X OC] [CRIMINAL MINDS] [SEASONS 1]

"The best and most beautiful things in the world... they have to be felt with the heart." I joined the FBI to get to the BAU. CAC was just the step in between. Then Spencer Reid walked in-PhDs, cardigans, and so stupidly attractive it completely derailed my ability to speak like a functioning adult. We were supposed to work one case together. Now I'm pretending I don't notice how brilliant he is. This is fine. Totally fine. I'm being very normal about it. Set during Season 2, Episode 2 ("P911"), this is a slow(ish) friends-to-lovers rewrite where Evelyn Gilroy takes Amanda's place and tries very hard not to fall in love with Spencer Reid.

❛He inhaled deeply and looked at her, and Vivienne's head tilted as she traced the line of his jaw with her eyes, or the pouty swell of his pink lips as his tongue darted across and left a trail of moisture in its wake. Just as she was studying him, he was memorizing every feature on her face - her beauty mark, which he was sure she had more of, and the fullness of her lips always tinted with mauve. But it was her eyes that he always circled back to. Sleek, almost cat-like, but doe at the same time. When she laughed, it shone in her eyes and left him breathless, but when she thought no one was looking at her, they would seem so empty, and even then, he found her beautiful. She was a puzzle, and Spencer Reid loved puzzles.❜ ― WHERE Spencer Reid's ever-stagnant, helpless flow of life had only ever been made bearable by the distraction of sick minds and the never-ending analyses of linguistics, the introduction of Vivienne LaForteza came quietly, like the barely-felt slither of a boa coiling around a sleeping gazelle before its bones were crushed within the reptile's grip. He was a genius. He spotted signs and recognized patterns miles before anyone else could get a glimpse, so he knew there was more to her than meets the eye - and he would gladly smile even as blood filled his mouth, so long as she wrapped herself around him.
