❝ EXCUSE ME, I HAVE TO GO KILL SOMEONE. ❞ ❝ I REALLY HOPE SHE'S TALKING FIGURATIVELY. ❞ ( BOOK TWO of FIGHT OR FLIGHT ) Scout Wiley was once in love with the abyss. It was her mistake for getting too comfortable. She knew she shouldn't have lied, that she shouldn't have messed with things out of her control. Scout couldn't help herself. Because when the abyss stared back at her, all she saw were the eyes of Spencer Reid. But now is not the time for past romance or forbidden memories. Instead, she knew she had a choice to make and running away from her problems was no longer an option. The only solution was to seek refuge in the one person she had been avoiding for 13 years. And he wasn't the same man anymore. rankings: #1 in reid x oc #1 in spencer reid #1 in matthew gray gubler

❝ if you wanted to kill me, you would have done it already. but you haven't, because i think you know i'm the only person who really understands you ❞ spencer reid has always loathed the star-crossed lovers trope. i mean, he's read a lot of fiction, and it really is just a terribly repetitive romantic trope -- so, naturally, when it appears as a reality in his own life, it's very much unappreciated. and, well, star-crossed lovers has never been so literal than when spencer reid feels tied -- by fate, by their pasts, by simple sexual attraction -- to the nefarious subject of a rigorous investigation. this just might be the case of his life, and yet his mind keeps wandering away, down a deep, dark hallway to where someone calls his name. star-crossed lovers has never been so dangerous. [criminal minds, season 7 onwards] [slow burn, enemies to lovers] [spencer reid x female oc]

That's his choice. [ based on late season 3, early season 4 spencer reid ] cover by: @amygraymikae

"where do we go from here? what are we?" "For once, I have no clue."

"How many existentialists does it take to screw a lightbulb?" Spencer asked with a small laugh. Once again the room was silent. You faintly heard Agent Rossi mutter, "Don't." "2. One to change the light bulb and one to observe how it symbolizes an incandescent beacon of subjectivity in a netherworld of cosmic nothingness," he said. The room was silent still, until you laughed. His eyes looked up at yours in confusion. "Wouldn't they sit in the dark and hope that the bulb decided to light again? An existentialist would never change the bulb. He would allow the darkness to exist," you questioned. - #1 #spencerreid #1 #mgg #1 emilyprentiss
