The Mystic Pool, a set of certified bangers from Jon over at the Dungeonmapster discord. He does beautiful work!
could you please explain how the safeword traffic system works?? i really cant wrap my head around it
Sure.
Red means stop. No more negotiation, something has crossed a line (too painful, something bad that wasn’t negotiated, etc.)
Yellow means that you need a break or that something is too much, or that if the top continues then you’re going to “red” soon.
Green means that things are going well and you want to continue if not ramp it up a little.
While a bottom might blurt out red or yellow, I’ve never seen a bottom volunteer “green”. It’s usually said in answer to when a top is checking in to make sure everything is okay. Asking “How are you?” and getting an answer of “fine” or “okay” might mean the bottom is just on autopilot and reflexively answering. Asking “What’s your color?” and getting “green” or “I was very close to yellow when you stopped” is much better.
One of my favorite doms to watch at parties was doing a pre-scene negotiation with someone he hadn’t played with before and said something like “Now, just between you and me here ;-) , my favorite color is yellow. It’s not about taking anything I can dish out. I promise you, I can always go harder. I want to know how you’re doing. I’ll likely yellow you, on purpose, a few times, just to find out where your limits are and then aim for a little below that. I don’t want to hear ‘green green green, green green red’ because then the scene’s over. I want some indication of how you’re doing and when you’re getting close to what you can handle, okay?”
And then, whenever she yellowed, he praised her. And why wouldn’t he?? She gave him vital information that allowed the both of them to have more fun!
Recently I have heard some discussions on also adding BLUE to this system for medical issues. It would function like RED but also in one word alert your partner you are having a medical issue, e.g. asthma attack, body cramps, low blood sugar, dizziness or some other sysmtom that is a problem for you. If you have already discussed medical issue with you partner, which you should do, blue might key them into something they can respond to with that knowledge to help rather than red and having to explain further.
Example: if I have asthma and communicate with my partner that it’s been bothing me recently and here is where my inhaler will be during a scene and I start having breathing issues and can’t stop coughing or catch my breathe to make out long or multiple words, I can say blue and they would know to get my inhaler. Or they would know to ask medical related questions in relation to stopping rather than thinking they pushed too hard.
I hadnt heard of the BLUE addition, but that’s great. Thanks for spreading the word about it.
There’s no reason why you can’t use this for ‘regular’ sex too, btw - Maybe for trauma reasons, dysphoria, etc.
I have never understood genderswapping characters. And I don't mean in a fun, let's teach this male character a lesson kind of way, or in a trans character way, I mean in the here's this slash ship but hey let's turn one half into a woman kind of way. It just feels incredible homophobic to me. Like why can't you ship it with them both being men, huh? Was it necessary to turn this character into a woman for you to find enjoyment from their relationship. And I mean, I kind of understand if both members of a malexmale pairs are genderswapped, in a way. I mean at least that way they're still queer, but like taking a slash ship like Sterek, Buddie, Methur, ect and making one a woman is so unnecessary. Aren't there enough het ships out there? That you have to take a m/m ship and make it het.

hello, my lovely, so your hcs are the literal best! so i was wondering if you could do some headcanons for spencer in season 4 where him and reader have started dating and i was also wondering if they could be fluff and smut? thank you <3
firstly, i hope you're ready to be in some scary is-the-love-of-my-life-going-to-die situations
the first hug you get after he's out of the cult hostage situation is the best thing ever
the flight to colorado, realizing there's a 1/3 chance he's dead, every second until Rossi gets back from meeting Cyrus and tells you Spence is okay, when it's revealed he or Em is an FBI agent and when the building blows up with him in it are the worst moments
because this ^^ is really early on, it's also really early on in your relationship and it's when you both realize your feelings are very real

Unconventional Soulmates, Spencer Reid
I love soulmate AU’s, and this was a random idea that popped into my head :)
Word Count: 1.8k~
A part of Spencer loved the fact that he had a soulmate. In all honesty, he couldn’t wait for the day he got to meet them. The idea of someone being out there made just for him, and him being made for someone out there delighted him to no end. However, there was a slight issue.
Having the words, “Help me!” printed on his wrist in an old-fashioned font was fairly inconvenient, to say the least. Growing up, everyone confused it for him trying to subtly seek help. Many people even thought it was his way of searching for attention, causing some people to look down on him. This made him hide his arms behind sweaters and long-sleeve shirts all day, every day, which would then continue on into his adult years.

The Statistical Probability of A More Than Happy Ending
Master List to The Statistical Probability Series
Spencer Reid x BAUfem!Reader
TW: Cursing, implied sex, a bit of smut, fingering (female receiving), description of a panic attack*, memories of Tobias Hankel, brief descriptions of torture by an unsub, talking about schizophrenia, talking about drug use and addiction, traumatic nightmares, and like…awkwardness abounding. NSFW; minors DNI.
*This is based on my personal experience with panic attacks. Panic attacks are different for every single person that has them, but as with the anorexia relapse described in Twenty Percent, I thought about looking up common panic attack experiences and found that it was far more authentic to write it based on my own experiences. I tend to freeze up, I don’t mind people hugging me, but I will not initiate contact. I’ll hyperventilate and cry uncontrollably, so that’s what happens in this.
Hello! This is a highly requested (by multiple people) sequel to The Statistical Probability of Falling in Love. I was so, so very nervous about writing this from a completely logistical sense: I plan everything I write to the punctuation (I’m a bit of a control freak, not gonna lie; it’s, frankly, absolutely ridiculous - I will spend an embarrassing amount of time doing something like picking a GIF because I want it to match the tone of the piece). I love getting requests (please, please feel free to send them to me), but even when I receive requests, I putter away at it until I have a firm grasp on the angle from which I want to tell the story (this is such a pompous way of explaining my controlling nature that literally not a soul asked for, but here we are). All this to say: a continuation of something I have planned out to the letter is hard and I worked really hard on this and I hope you enjoy it.
All that to say, I love you all very much. While I was writing this, I reached 500 followers. The fact that any of you are willing to pay attention to my weird little writings on the internet means more than I could possibly put into words. I can’t give you all a hug, but, I hope, at the very least, this makes you smile. xx
~ “Everybody knows that if you are too careful you are so occupied in being careful that you are sure to stumble over something.” - Gertrude Stein ~
If someone were to ask Dr. Spencer Reid to describe himself in three words, he would probably settle on “smart, weird, and careful”. He was careful, careful to a fault, most of the time - at least in his personal life. At work he was willing to do almost anything to catch the unsub or solve a crime, but, in his own life he was careful. He was not someone to take chances. This cautiousness also made him a very anxious man. So anxious, in fact, that another three words to describe him could be: “walking panic attack”.
Spencer loves you for many, many reasons, but from the moment he met you, the gentle sanding you gave to the rougher edges of his anxiety allowed him to breathe a little easier each and every day. For his cautious nature and anxiety, this created a playground of second guesses, but your constant calming presence in his life also meant that Spencer was gaining the strength to fight those off as well, little by little. For the most part, anyway. Every so often, insecurity would creep its way in, even to the lovelier moments.
Everything just feels a little too easy; a little too good to be true. Sure, there are little things: a petty argument or two, the occasional logistical error regarding your jobs. Frankly, thank God you work together because otherwise you’d literally never see each other. Those things aren’t life altering, but the love you share is and everything in his life is made better because of it.
Insecurity, though, is a funny thing. For a good deal of his life, he’s felt sure that happiness would always stand just out of his grasp. And the happier you make him, the more anxious he seems to become. It is oh so easy to love you, but Spencer still has a great deal of trouble loving himself. In fact, the only thing that stands anywhere close to the strength of his love for you is the strength of his self-hatred. And in moments like these, that self-hatred can be incredibly overwhelming.

Spencer Reid x BAUfem! Reader
Category: Fluff
TW: Mentions of bullying, cursing, kind of a depressing mental space at the beginning, mentions of an erection, and again, like…desiring somebody beyond the realms of friendship.
Also, good lord, he’s so awkward, so this is kind of overdramatic, but all in good fun. It’s also kind of super long because I have no filter. And I loved this request by @radtwinkie .
This request has taken me literal ages to complete and I am so sorry for that! It’s really just because I genuinely loved this request and thought it was so precious and lovely; I really didn’t want to mess it up…all that to say I’ve rewritten it at least twice, so I hope it’s close to what was imagined when requested. Thank you @radtwinkie for your patience and I hope you all enjoy! xx
~ “Most of us have nicknames - annoying, endearing, embarrassing. But what about your true name? It is not necessarily your given name. But it is the one to which you are most eager to respond when called. Ever wonder why? Your true name has the secret power to call you.” - Vera Nazarian ~
Spencer is not a huge fan of nicknames. Part of it, of course, was the intense bullying he’d received as a child and teenager. Which was, frankly, rather hard to get past, even as an adult. He loved his BAU family, and for the majority of his time working with them, he felt loved and seen and accepted. But every so often Derek would make a comment that hit too close to home, Hotch would shut down one of his tangents with a slightly more annoyed tap than usual, Rossi would roll his eyes a little harder than usual, Penelope would seem genuinely overwhelmed, or Emily or JJ would be just a little too relieved to get to walk away as he began to ramble. It felt vastly unfair; Spencer wasn’t one to believe in karma, but there was something in him that felt like…maybe he deserved this acute loneliness. The brain he had been given, the intelligence he had…only for it to be received with…not hatred, exactly, but a sort of begrudged acceptance felt like a penance for the brain he was lucky to have, but never asked for.
No one is perfect, but in those moments when he allows his anxieties and insecurities to get the better of him, Spencer can’t help but feel that his perceived imperfections are maybe too much?
JJ is overly competitive, but Will loves that about her. Hotch is borderline humorless, especially when it comes to the job, but both Beth and Haley were able to see beyond that. Rossi is sarcastic, too wry sometimes for his own good, yet he is loved and respected. Derek can be testy to the point of meanness, and yet he always seems to be showered with affection by Penelope and many, many women. Penelope is quirky, sure, but always adored and never doubted. Emily could be borderline cruel and yet still manages to maintain a level of intimacy with the team that Spencer just does not seem to have. So, though nobody is perfect, Spencer is worried that he is so imperfect that his brain has muddled himself a hole he will never be able to leave. It feels like an absolutely hopeless situation…that is, until he meets you.
It was after a particularly gnarly case in Los Angeles that Strauss decided to hire a new communications liaison. The publicity surrounding the case was fierce prior to the BAU’s arrival, but their involvement only brought more attention. The case was incredibly complicated and the investigation dragged on longer than anyone wanted it to. The press was practically vicious by the time the thing had been solved and, upon arriving back at Quantico, the whole team was shuffled into several meetings with Strauss regarding how best to handle press moving forward. Strauss didn’t want to add anyone to the team, nor did anyone else, really, but after an exploratory meeting with you, she was impressed and you were hired.

The first time it happened, it was an accident. Y/n had agreed to go out for drinks with her friends, and Spencer had texted her that he was back in Quantico just as she was getting her first gin and tonic. Despite the fact they had only been dating for 2 months, she was more than ready to abandon her friends to spend time with him, in his apartment, for the first time. Spencer let her know that the team was going out for drinks of their own and that he’d see her the next day.
Somehow, they ended up at the same bar. It was fun; the flirty text messages, stolen glances across the room, and whispers at the bar when they were conveniently ordering drinks at the same time.
Y/n’s friends were happy to leave her with the Handsome Stranger once she introduced him as her mysterious boyfriend, Spencer, once the BAU team had left. It was her first time at his apartment, in his bedroom, in his bed…

my petite protégée (bau x reader/spencer x reader)
Y/N is new to the BAU and works under Garcia. she finds herself being able to see something in the case no one else does, impressing the team, including a specific doctor
this is fem!reader but i will try to make my fics more gen later. in requests btw, if you would like to, please specify what gender you would like the reader to be
genre: fluff
word countL 8.7k
trigger warnings: just regular criminal minds stuff
A/N: So, this took a different turn, a fluffier turn. Originally this was gonna be an angst fic but then I was in a cute mood so. Tell me if you guys want me to continue the Techie Reader series because I would be happy too. Also, the reader is around 20, and I’m placing Spencer at 26-27 so there is a bit of an age difference, but not too much. This is around season 3
UPDATED A/N: I wrote this in 2020 and then deleted it when I deleted my old Tumblr. But, I was really proud of this fic, so….here it is.
This system was far more complicated than what you’ve practiced with when you were at the academy, but you shouldn’t be too surprised knowing the kind of equipment that the FBI tended to use, it was all taught to you at The Academy.
“And I’ve developed all the software myself!”
In addition to the fact that the software was designed by Ms. Penelope Garcia herself.
“This is…amazing,” You gawked, eyes scanning over the array of code Garcia so gracefully decided to show you, whether it was for you to study or be in awe at. Either way, you were doing both, leaning forward in order to scan your eyes over as much of the sequences as you possibly could, although you doubt you would remember it all. You were intelligent, IQ of 159 and almost perfect grades throughout all of your schooling, but you were better with making connections and remembering numbers than memory, so even if you wanted to remember all of Garcia’s code, it was nearly impossible
“That’s right, stare in wonder!” Garcia exclaimed in a grandiose tone, to which you nodded intrinsically, the blue hue of the laptop flashing into your eyes as you scanned the computer one last time.
“I am in wonder,” You replied directly, turning around in your rolling chair to look at the extravagantly dressed woman in all of her glory. “But how long did it take you to program this?”
“A magician never reveals her secrets, Y/L/N.” Garcia replied ominously, to which you gave her a deadpan stare before bursting out into a smile and shaking your head playfully.
“You’re the boss.” You whispered back, spinning around in your chair once more so you would be facing the computers, hearing the rolling of another set of wheels as Garcia pulled up an extra chair next to you.
“I don’t think I’ll ever get used to someone telling me that, although it feels nice.” She giggled, smiling at me before pulling the keyboard closer to her and entering whatever information was needed in order to pull up the FBI’s security page. As you read through the page, you could see all the requested information pertained to you, and even before you could reply with the needed responses, Garcia began to type.
“Do you have a middle name?”
“Ah–”
“Oh, wait. Never mind, I know that.” She scrolled further down the page.
“Age?”
“20.”
“Oh! You’re a youngster, younger than Reid even.”
You did not recognize that name but decided to not inquire about it.

I put together a little collection of Sterek and Steter fics for funsies. “Just a few fics”, I thought, “nothing too crazy.” Thirty fics later I had to cut myself off and finalize the list. You can thank @the-cookie-of-doom for the inspiration.
These primarily fall under the Hurt Stiles Stilinski category because I apparently like to see my comfort characters suffer. Most of these have hopeful/happy endings but mind the tags. For reals.
Placed under a cut since I have no self control and this turned into a long post.
