where in the timeline does gideon actually find the footpath killer? i always assumed it happened at some point before bale because the way they all talk about it is like its a thing that happened a while ago (like morgan saying "we've all asked him" about the stutter like its a long-standing topic of discussion) and not like its a recent trauma that happened like... last week?? but i was reading through the nelson's sparrow transcript (bc emotionally idk if i can handle watching it akebsk) and it says "I was excited. He was teaching this class and I signed up, but he only lectured twice. Because he found the Footpath killer and came back to the unit." which makes it sound like those two things happened at around the same time... why is everyone so nonchalant about it if it just happened 😭

#criminal minds #jason gideon #like... i get that they're always getting guns pointed at them #but i feel like the footpath killer incident is very different?#because he's completely alone #no backup in sight #unarmed with a shotgun to the back of his head...#and he wasn't working! he was just stopping for gas! so like he wasn't expecting to have his life threatened lmao #that's traumatic shit!#also the fic im working on takes place during his leave right up to the start of the show #and i did not account for the footpath killer happening right when he goes back to work 💀#idk how I'd incorporate it in 😭#yapping tag

trying to explain why i enjoy gideon like... he hates himself, he cares so much about people, he's passively suicidal, he's autistic, he's avoidant, he loves birds... he's just so crunchy 2 me

#was talking to a friend who described him as egotistical and full of himself and i was like.... what #i mean when he was younger i imagine he was a bit cocky #certainly confident in his abilities #but post-bale he's like.. so unsure of himself #and he blames everything that goes wrong on himself #man feels guilty about everything #anyways... i am unwell abt him basically #yapping tag

WIP Wednesday

A slightly late WIP Wednesday for the little Gideon fic I'm working on! 112 of the 7.6k words I currently have akdjsj I'm hoping to finish writing it this weekend? But it'll take me some time to edit since it's gonna be Hefty by the time I'm done.

"You're amazing." "You think so?" He sounds so doubtful you begin to wonder when the last time was that someone told him that. You decide then that you want to make him believe it. Want to tell him every day how extraordinary he is. "I know so." You push yourself up to kiss him softly. When you pull back there's something in his eyes you can't quite define. Part tenderness and part fear. Maybe uncertain is the word. Or hesitant. You kiss him again in lieu of saying more, hoping he understands what it means. "You're unbelievable," he says breathlessly against your lips. "Completely wonderful." "I could say the same about you."

#forewarning that there will be some mild angst bc gideon has Issues #but rest assured all will end happy #someone tell that poor self hating man that hes amazing 😭#oh also i haven't written anything for fun since i was like 13 so apologies in advance #writing tag
