Summary
“I couldn’t protect him, Dave. Within half a year, I’ve failed him twice.” Aaron balanced his head onto his fingertips.
“You didn’t fail him, Aaron. Not now, and not when Maeve was murdered. We’re a team; no one is at any greater fault than the other for what’s happened . . .”
Aaron let out a heavy, lamenting sigh. “For this unsub—whatever the motivation was before, subjugating a law official is going to give him a transgressive high. Reid’s time with him—however short or long—is going to be unpleasant.”
Peculiarly dismembered men are unearthed in the forest, and the locals request the assistance of more experienced investigators. The profile is complex and mercurial, leaving the team without substantial evidence to work with. So they wait on their perpetrator to ignite a series of events that will supplement their data for assessment. They don’t foresee that data being one of their own. Darkness descends.And yet.

Summary
Reid plays bait to catch one or more unsubs who target young gay crossdressers. He feels like an ugly ducky and like a failure in Hotch's eyes, whom he has a secret crush on.
It wouldn't be a proper crossdressing fic if no godmother fairy appeared and (waved his stick...I would say, but Francis wrote the new summery and his mind is not constantly in the gutter) transformed the ugly ducky into a beautiful swan.
When Jo first posted this, he decided for an elaborate summery. It still can be found in the notes.
I sincerely hope you enjoy our story.
