criminal minds thoughts on the worst episode ever season 19
K many thoughts
First WHY DID WE NOT GET TO SEE THE WEDDINGGGGGG IM SO MAD
Also I was anticipating who had this tumor the entire episode like his mother? His sister? His girlfriend? ITS HIS DOG?!?!?!? HIS B A B Y?!?!?! This thing should come with a trigger warning 😭 like I can handle a serial lobotomizer shoving ice picks up victim’s noses BUT THEYRE KILLING OFF ROXY????? Evil evil producers, who okayed this??? Soooo much worse than a girlfriend. How is Penelope handling this 😭
I love Spencer so much but for different reasons y’all do,
For example: him being so smart when it comes to statical information but having a difficult time with processing emotion and healthy out puts is so peak for his character.
But Ik this isn’t going to go over well so forget I said something. ( y’all tore me apart over that skinny nigga last time.)
I’m rewatching CME for the first time in a while and early days Tebecca has my heart and soul. They really have me kicking my feet and also biting my nails cause I know what’s about to happen. Also I miss Willifer. Gone but never forgotten. Finally, I hate to see that I see Tynelope. It’s toxic but I do love a slightly toxic ship. Of course Garvez is everything but listen, if Tyler was a woman, I’d be on my knees.
A/n: Alright now that I have officially finished the season finale now I can map this out so chapters should be quicker! Sorry for the wait on this new chapter everyone, my laptop has been not able to keep a steady connection lately so it keeps deleting parts of my drafts 😭
CW: flirting, threats and swearing
WC: 1.4k
You froze on the other side of the glass.
There’s no way he can see through it; it’s one way…
Yet his eyes stare you down like a predator circling its prey, only difference is that there’s always larger hunters in the wild.
Today is the day you prove that he doesn’t get to sit there and act all high and mighty when you know him better more than you would like to consider. He doesn’t get to sit there comfortably while he’s the reason Rossi will likely never trust you again.
You feel a pang of hurt in your chest at the thought of him keeping you at a distance. He was the closest father figure you had left in your life, and you couldn’t go through a second loss like that.
You know Sicarius, and all his little secrets. He’s circling the drain and doesn’t even realize he’s going to fall eventually.
And you are his downfall. You sighed and opened the door to the interrogation room, back fully straight as you walk into the room with your head held high. No fear in sight.
His back straightened as he took in the sight of you, with what looked like a hunger.
Then it changed to confusion as soon as he snapped out of it.
“Who the hell are you?” His face slightly scrunched up.
“SSA Y/n, I’m here to- “He interrupted you without missing a beat. He leans in closer to the table, nearing ready to crawl over it.
“No, you’re not… I’ve seen you before. But that wasn’t your name then.” His eyes begin to both darken and show a sliver of amusement.
You stilled but only for a moment, hopefully going undetected by Elias, you smirked as you looked him in the eyes.
“I’ve gone by many names over the years,” you said truthfully. You sauntered towards the table and sat down in front of him, meeting him halfway over the table.
“Our paths have crossed multiple times, as Lee Duval, as Elias Voit, even as most recent as the high and mighty Sicarius.” Venom laced your words as you watched him become more perplexed as you spoke.
His demeanor has fully cracked, this wasn’t The Sicarius in front of you right now, this was Elias Voit.
The father of Holly and Harlow, the two kids who you swore would never get hurt in all of this. But they did, those mental scars will never fade…
“I’m going to ask you one more time, who the fuck are you?” His voice showing his lack of patience as you could see the gears in his head turning to remember you.
“Down boy, you seem agitated? Whose feathers are ruffled now?” You lightly smiled.
He knew he had seen your face somewhere, but could you have really outsmarted him and his investigation in David Rossi and the BAU?
If you and him have history, why can’t he pinpoint where he knows your face from? Your perfume, your presence lulls him into a sense of familiarity…
He stills and lightly glares at you.
“That makes me wonder, how are Holly and Harlow doing?” His eyes lighten as the dots connect themselves.
He fully pulls back from you and lightly cocks his head to the side.
“You sneaky little- “He holds back his words to regain his composure.
“You were in my house …”
You nod and pull back as well, “Man of few words I see.” You added some extra pep in your voice.

2019
You knocked on the door of the house, a laptop bag tossed over your shoulder, and your phone in hand.
In your search for Sicarius, you managed to find out about his double life. How the previous Lee Duval, nephew of Cyrus Lebrun, a killer who kept coming up in your searches in old police files as a suspect. You picked up his tracks again after stumbling upon an ad for a tutor for two young girls in the area. You looked deeper into the family and found one photo of all of them.
Lee Duval became Elias Voit… you noted this change and would investigate him further so you could anchor down his activity.
The door opened and you saw Sydney Voit, you had been messaging her back and forth on a burner account and the two of you had hit it off. You feel bad for her, not knowing of her husband’s network, but eventually you’d tell her. Just needed to lock him down first.
“Hi I’m Verna, it’s nice to meet you in person!” You pitched up your voice, to try and come off warm.
She shook your hand and smiled back at you, “Hey! I’m Sydney, come on in.” She ushered you into the house and you made your way to the kitchen. Your dress swaying as you made your way through the home.
“Verna, this is my husband, Elias. Honey, this is Verna. Holly and Harlow’s new tutor.” He faintly looked up at you with a lack of interest.
He grunted out a hello and kept pouring a cup of coffee, “Man of few words I see.” You joked to cut the slight tension of the room. Sydney giggled at your comment and showed you to the kitchen table.
It felt like you were standing in the rubble of a recent argument between the two. With Elias looking grim and Sydney smiling like her life depended on it.
If only she knew the real him...
You felt guilty not being able to tell her what you knew, but at the same time, you needed to be sure that Lee Duval was now indeed Elias Voit.
You just hoped it didn’t come at the cost of their lives; you would do what you could to stop that from happening to another family. No one else needed to die.

He scoffs as he then grins like the cheshire cat, “My raven, you’ve come back to me,” He looks you up and down once more, but with a sense of respect almost. “Verna in a past life… Yes, I remember you. I should’ve picked up on that sooner.”
You knew that sentence would jog his memory, but it also made you feel exposed to him. Showing him the past lives of the raven, and how you came and went in his life almost undetected.
You knew if the BAU, hell if the FBI knew about your little mission, you would likely lose your badge in a heartbeat. But now with Emily being the Unit Chief, it almost gave you a sense of security to know she would be able to back up most of what you’d have done.
“I’m only here to take you down Elias, and” You stood up and walked around the table so that you were right next to his ear. “I’m not your Raven; she only existed to take you down.” Your breath fawning on his ear.
His neck flexed as your breath tickled his neck; he turned his head with amusement to look you right in the eyes.
“Is that what you keep telling yourself? Or is that what you tell her when you see her in your reflection.”
You flinched backwards.
“How do you know about that?” You looked him up and down.
He chuckled, “Honey, you might’ve been the one hunting me, but you gave so much of yourself away.” He leaned forwards to ghost his hand over yours.
“Not all of the dark secrets you told me were The Raven speaking...” he tucked his chin in and looked up at you.
“You think you know so much about me Lee.” You bit back to bring him down a peg, “But I could burry you in a shipping container with the dirt I have on you.”
“You’d like that too much, I know you in such..” he took a pause as his eyes took all of you in, looking like he was undressing you, “Intimate ways..”
You flushed from the look he gave you, you weren’t blind he was a very attractive man.
You snapped yourself out of those thoughts as you smiled and made your way to the door. You turned back to look at him once you put your hand on the doorknob.
“The Raven might’ve infiltrated your network, but me? y/n? I am so much worse…”
He smiles as he takes you in one more time before you leave.
“Oh, you certainly are y/n, and I am liking what I am seeing.” He winks at you and you roll your eyes and walk out the door.
A/n: also funny story that tutor storyline was written down before I got to the fan storyline, so also hence another delay in this chapter 🤭
