The trouble with transferring police and authority units, is that you then become a freshman again.
Your ability to think for yourself gets taken away from you. The inability to stay confident in your field is a daily struggle especially faced with people who are smarter than you. You don't try to act smarter than them, you don't try to outsmart them, because you know they will win.
But you do know how to stay true to yourself. That truth is what wins people over as you confidently solve each case with the help of your team members.
Alison Lester, a recently transferred officer, is requested by the Behavioural Analysis Unit (BAU) in the FBI at Quantico, the confronting sights of blood, murder, killers, stalkers, and obscene things are now a daily occurrence. Definitely something she never had in the field office in LA.
But who knows, something positive may come out of this experience.

The Observer Effect (ON HOLD)
The Observer Effect - A Criminal Minds Fanfiction When Dr. Charlotte Charlie Sinclair joins the BAU, she's not just another profiler-she's a victimology and behavioral linguistics expert, recruited for her ability to see patterns where others don't. She's analytical, sharp, and unafraid to challenge the best minds in the room. But stepping into the BAU means more than just solving cases. It means navigating the unbreakable bonds of the team, balancing her past with the present, and matching wits with Dr. Spencer Reid-a fellow prodigy whose mind moves as fast as hers. As she fights for justice alongside the team, Charlie finds herself caught in something she never anticipated: a slow-burning tension with Spencer that neither of them can name. Cases will push them to their limits. Unsubs will test their resolve. And along the way, the line between observation and connection will blur. Because the more Charlie watches, the harder it becomes to ignore what's right in front of her. *I do not own rights to the show, just inspired the characters. The story will follow the show, but twisted a little bit.

Emmy knew they were the best at what they did, but what she didn't expect was Dr. Spencer Reid. *this is a self-insert fanfiction, with an OC I created, but I hope that everyone who reads it can truly let themselves become Emmy Gray, and let themselves experience this as if they were the one there, walking and talking side by side with the BAU. it takes place roughly in season 9, so there are spoilers for previous seasons and seasons moving forward!* **DISCLAIMER: I do not own any characters or plots from Criminal Minds. All OC's and storylines are my own creations, simply added into the world of Criminal Minds**

Secrets shouldn't be held
Alexandra only wanted to teach. Spencer only wanted to be in the FBI. Alexandra went into the FBI. So did Spencer. But they met in 2000 just before she turned 20. They both forgot they had met years before. They didn't care. They keep the secret of their relationship. They keep it until it becomes to much. To much for one to control. Alexandra Buchanan is a doctor, she specialises in weaponry and chemicals. She had graduated high school with honours when she turned 11, with an IQ of 203, she was accepted into college. She was offered a spot at the BAU after her father passed away when she was 18, she, however, did not take it. By the time she was 20, she had a PhD in psychology, criminal psychology, child psychology, mathematics and medicine and specialised in forensic pathology. Spencer Reid is a genius with an IQ of 187 and can read 20,000 words per minute with an eidetic memory. He is the second youngest member of the FBI Behavioral Analysis Unit (BAU), has three BAs and three PhDs (in Mathematics, Chemistry, and Engineering), and specializes in statistics and geographic profiling. Love. Heart break. Death. Mental illness. Drug use.Complete
Starting Fresh. Spencer Reid X OC.
The BAU is filled with special souls who work hard and also members who try harder. For some it is natural and others prefer to do their work on their own. This is the story of a quiet young girl who searched for a place she might call home and then she found it but not where she thought and not where some of the team had hoped. I am aware of inconsistencies. IE Maeve and Gideon. I am not following the timeline. Just what I like and remember from the start.Complete
