Hello!!! Just wanted to drop by and say that I SO loved "Dreams are only Blue" and was wondering whether you planned on continuing the story! Not rushing you or anything, not by any means, but just wanted to know if there are any updates 😁
I am!! I haven’t had the energy to write in a long time, but I’m still planning on updating!
Most of the time I love JJ, but honestly, she's probably my least favourite out of the BAU team in all the series I've seen so far (I'm up to s7) and this is also me excluding Rossi because half the time I forget he exists and he's also gross and racist so no thanks!
Honestly, I loved her more as a media liason, and she now seems a bit boring as a profiler, and it makes no sense to her original character that she would become one either.
I think she has a really good little sister dynamic with the whole team, especially Reid and Morgan, and totally fits the caregiver expectation that the show kind of gave her when she had Henry, but it suits her!
Also love her dynamic with Emily and Garcia, love the idea of them going shopping and getting coffee and going out for late night drinks.
And I love how devoted to her friends, job and family she is.
I dunno, right now I love her, but she defs has some faults and isn't always the kindest person, especially to Reid, and some things she does do come off as mean and rude and when I think of her in highschool, I can see her as the popular girl who was never the nicest (which funny enough Reid thinks she is).
So yeah, I think out of all the main characters, she's the one that probably grinds my gears the most, mainly cause she's not written great (a failure on the writers part) and also because she just does some mean things and isn't always the kindest person. But when she is she brings so much to the team and I love her.

daydreams, the velveteins
it’s been six months and you still can’t get over the sight of him in those fluffy slippers. it’s a spencer reid that nobody else gets to see, a spencer reserved for only you. every night he wears a different set of pyjamas, never matching, always the softest, cuddliest fabrics to snuggle against. as if this boy isn’t soft enough without them.
tonight, he’s wrapped in a fleecy hoodie and tartan pants, those beloved slippers scuffing around the kitchen as he fills a wicker basket with fruit, wine, cheese, rice crispy treats, anything and everything in the cupboards.
you got changed quickly after your disaster dinner date. he speaks with his hands, a trait you find so magnetic, a trait not so suited to fancy restaurants and delicate wine glasses.
smash!
his mouth hung open as he looked at you, back at the floor, back at you, back at the floor, back at you and oh god–
“i’m so sorry! red wine is such a tough stain to remove and…”
his face was bright red to match your once white dress, eyes wide like a deer in the headlights, hands frozen in dinosaur claws because how did that just happen we haven’t even eaten yet?!
“…there’s not even enough salt to take effect…”
shattered glass surrounded your table and a waiter swanned over with the world’s biggest brush and spencer just wanted to die. he wanted the ground to swallow him whole, to burn his fingertips off and start a new life in some far off field with terrible signal and a herd of cows. he always wanted to be a cowboy anyway. there’s no way you’d join him after ruining everything, letting go would destroy him but he always knew he’d end up alone–
“…even if you did want to come i’d strongly encourage you not to because i’m just the worst, i’m terrible company and i bet even the cows would hate me, they’re great judges of character–”
“why are you laughing?” he choked out, “are you hurt?”
you reached across the table and placed your hands over his, smoothing them against the ruined table cloth in an attempt to ease his anxiety.
“i never really liked this dress,” you said it so plainly, eyes so sincere as they met his. “thank you for ruining it.”
he was speechless.
“i know you’re a big romantic and you’ve had this reservation for weeks and thank you for such a wonderful gesture,” you continued, watching his breathing return to normal, “but fancy restaurants were never really our thing, right? what do you say we get out of here?”
so you’re lighting candles in the apartment, the wine stained dress soaking in the bath, as spencer coats strawberries in too much chocolate. there’s one of your blankets on the floor in front of the tv – moving the coffee table yet another ordeal spencer would rather forget…
but these moments with him, covered in wine, stubbing toes, laughter so loud and bright and happy that tears stream down cheeks, you wouldn’t change them for the world. it’s a spencer only for you.
he places the basket on the blanket and winds his arms around your waist, tugging you down onto his lap. the tv is on, old reruns of house hunters that spencer always rambles through, pointing out sinkage and cracked pipes and flooding risks. you snack on strawberries and pour more wine, lips sweet and red, adding kissing gates and discussing greenhouses to place in your shared dreamland someday: spencer’s pumpkin patch, your swingset, a cosy home nestled between rolling hills.
“could we get a telescope, to see saturn? and the eta carinae nebula?” he asks, cheeks rosy and eyes twinkling, tipsy.
“as long as we have an outdoor heater. i love you but you’re not the warmest boyfriend.”
his eyebrows pull together at that, offence wrinking his nose as his competitive side kicks in.
“how dare you?” he’s fighting a smirk.
he picks you up suddenly, your legs flailing as he spins you around, throwing you down onto the couch and landing on top of you. your squeals, his laughter, it’s a beautiful cacophony of joy as his hands dip under your shirt, tickling and prodding, relentless as you gasp. his leg kicks out to gain leverage, you cross your ankles around his waist and rip a fluffy slipper from his foot, swatting mercilessly, he grabs it and throws–
smash!
“are you kidding me?!” spencer howls, throwing his head back as you burst out laughing. the wine bottle is bleeding out, both wine glasses scattered across the floor.
“i’m so sorr–”
your lips, smiling against his, cut him off. your thighs squeeze against his midriff to remind him that it’s okay, that this night could not be more perfect, that you love him and all of his gracelessness, as his nose rubs against yours and the river of wine stains everything in love love love.
Hi Lauren! Since you're the only person who i kinda know that watched TFATWS... do you know why Zemo said he crossed his own name off of Bucky's list? Like... Why did Bucky had to "make amends" to Zemo? I don't think i really understood that part...
Hey angel! (Sorry it took so long to answer this.)
The way I see it is that Bucky’s list is there for him to ‘make amends’ right? Well, he and Zemo have a complicated past- as we know in Civil War Zemo framed Bucky for the crime of killing King T’Chaka and then used him by triggering him back in to the Winter Soldier.
I think Zemo crossing his own name of the list was basically him pre-emptively knowing that Bucky would bring him to justice, and thus, amending for his past mistakes and avenging the hurt he caused under Zemo’s control. Zemo believed Bucky would kill him and that would be his justice, but little did he know that Bucky has fully committed to his new life outside of his Winter Soldier persona.
I think what’s important to note here is that not every name on Bucky’s list is someone he wants or needs forgiveness from, but also people who he feels he needs to bring to justice.
