He’d been flipping through the pages of the novel in his skinny hands for an hour, hazel eyes scanning each word at an unthinkable pace, his unfathomable mind ripping though each chapter in a matter of minutes -- his goal was to finish by the time they landed back in Quantico, but when he feels a sudden movement from the young lady stirring beside him, he makes a mental note; a checkpoint in his book, closing it in one hand and with the other worriedly awakening the agent from her nightmarish dream. Tears streaked her cheeks, even through her slumber, and his eyes widen; it must have been bad.

She opens her eyes after his repetitive call of her name, his hand gently soothing her shoulder and giving her gentle pats to wake her up. “ Riley, hey, hey -- it’s okay, ” he says timidly, subconsciously glancing toward a sleeping Morgan in the back of the plane; and he nervously hovers his hand over that same shoulder, unsure if she’d be okay with the comfort of his touch. “ You’re alright, d-don’t cry, okay? ” He’s gentle with her, setting his book down on the chair beside him and turning to face her fully.

“it happens. i hate to say it, but your body gets used to sleep deprivation when you work here to long.”  spencer said, quietly, pausing the book and closing it, offering her a small smile, accepting the coffee, he took a sip, and hummed, diggging into the bag tucked beside him and pulling out two packets of sugar, “i’m driving back to dc from quantico -- i’m going to need the extra sugar.” he explained, softly, looking at the cup and then offering her a small smile, “but we got him in custody -- and we saved the victim, so...it could be worse.” he remarked, fingers tapping on his knee. they’d had far worse plane rides.

Riley and Joe are in an SUV, he's driving, and Riley turns on the radio to .... idk, Heavydirtysoul by 21 pilots and starts singing and dancing in the car. What does Joe do? How does he respond to such behaviour?

Joe side glances at her as she starts to sing and dance in her seat. Shakes his head and smirks slightly at Riley, his fingers are quietly tapping the steering wheel in tune with the song, as much as he can hear anyway for all he knows he might be tapping out of rhythm.

[ starter for @rileypalmer ]

it’s a slow thursday, while they were in the office, the bau team was not on call for cases, due to cruz’s specific instructions on a week without cases and travel, which meant they were working semi-normal hours. it’s four-thirty and spencer has bugged every single person in the entire building about going to a concert in the park near where he lived, and no one wanted to. penelope had a group to run, morgan had plans with savannah, henry was sick and will was on call tonight, hotch was -- well, hotch and rossi had given him a glare before he could ask. tara was out doing custodials. gina, kevin, and grant all had varying plans. 

which meant the last person left was riley, it wasn’t that he didn’t like riley, it was just she made him nervous. aside from jj, riley was the closest agent to his age (and he wasn’t going to deny she was pretty), but she made him nervous because of reasons he couldn’t pin point, aside from a natural awkwardness. he never really forgave himself for dumping his coffee on her that first day. still, paperwork done, a glance at his watch -- 4:45pm. now or never. spencer stood and moved over to riley’s desk, pausing, tapping on the top to get her attention.

“hey, ah-- there’s a concert tonight in georgetown...ah...” a hum, shyly, hazel eyes glance at her, then at his hands, they’d hung out a bit with the team as a group, but it was strange to do something on their own, “it’s free, outdoors, a string ensemble... i always feel weird going alone, so if you aren’t busy, you can come?” he offered, a shy, bright smile.

☯ = Any odd sleeping habits?

Bedtime Headcanons

Nothing too extreme.  Sadie can be a wild sleeper.  Her covers will end up all over the bed, or, on occasion, on the floor.  She always has multiple pillows.  She needs pretty dark conditions to sleep, and will wear a sleep mask if there is much light at all.  Probably the oddest thing is she has an old stuffed rabbit she’s had for years she actually sleeps with, although she doesn’t usually cuddle the rabbit (she might if she’s feeling sad or something about a case disturbed her).  It’s just on the bed out of habit.  She doesn’t take it with her when she travels, except back to her parents’, again out of habit.

A box with little pink converse ;P Sorry, not so anon lol

Make Spencer Happy! (Cause the writers of Criminal Minds never do)

Oh my GOD do not even get me started. He would seriously just run his hands through his hair and start crying. Like he would go right past the happy stage and go straight to sobbing. And he would grab Riley and pull her in and just clutch her shirt and smile into her neck. I will never get tired of discussing this lmao

20. Do they like musicals? Music in general? What do they do when they’re favourite song comes?

Super Detailed Questions

Sadie’s not really into musicals.  She does like a fairly wide variety of music, although not too much heavy stuff.  She mostly listens to certain types of pop, country, or softer rock, unless she’s working out, when she might listen to heavier music.  Sadie will dance along sometimes to music she really likes.  She’s not usually going to sing along, as she hates to hear herself sing.  She’s not terrible, but not someone who’d ever make it as a singer.  She might sing the chorus, though.

🍸 - Favorite drink.

Preferences Asks

The thing Sadie drinks most is water, but her favorite drink is tea.  Thought she drinks it fairly regularly, she does try to keep it under control to save her teeth.
