Summary
Derek looks up to place an order only to find himself tongue tied at the cashier. Oh god. He’s hungover, and normally being served coffee by someone at Dunkin who looks like he would rather be in hell. Not this guy. Derek looks at him, the hint of a smile on his face, his curls falling on his forehead, burnt honey eyes patiently looking at Derek, tattoos littered across his forearms.
So obviously what comes out of his mouth is, “Coffee.” Jesus fucking Christ.
The guy smiles impishly, amused. “We do have coffee,” he quips.
Derek wishes the earth would swallow him up.

Summary
Dr. Ivy Woods has had a rough couple of years. After being forced into an honorary discharge from the army, where she served alongside Dr. Owen Hunt, Ivy made her escape to the rainy city of Seattle. She made friends there, and memories, until a ghost from her past appeared and landed himself a job as the Head of Trauma. As her boss.
And Ivy put up with it, until everything went to shit and a psychopath shot up the hospital.
Now, Ivy wanted nothing more than to get out of Seattle, so when a position as Head of Trauma opened up at a hospital in Washington, Virginia, she jumped at it. In a new city and a new job, Ivy had a chance for a fresh start. To form new bonds, explore relationships, and to hopefully not get caught in any more horrible disasters.
But out of everything Ivy wanted from her new adventure, the last thing she expected was to fall in love.

Summary
When Spencer Reid dies at the hands of an UnSub for the second time in his life, he expects it to be the end. However, one strange encounter with an unidentifiable entity later, and Spencer experiences the seemingly impossible; waking in his own body over a decade earlier, on the floor of Tobias Hankel's shack, with a head full of memories of events that haven't yet come to pass. Reeling from the displacement and desperate to change what's coming, Spencer confides in Aaron Hotchner, and hopes that together they can prevent the tragedies that Spencer already experienced once from coming to pass a second time.

Summary
Reid surprises Hotch with a gift out of the blue. Their relationship isn’t the kind where they just bring each other things.

This sparks a chain of gift exchanges and Hotch has to face his growing feelings for Reid and come to terms with his sexuality.

Slow burn full of fluff, self discovery, (eventual) smut, and some case work weaved in. (Triggers for cases in tags ♥️)

"(Mon 12:20 pm)
Which is why you text the stranger instead of talk to coworkers.(Mon 12:20 pm)
Yes.
(Mon 12:28 pm)
Is that weird?"xxx
A dialogue-only AU in which Hotch texts what he thinks is Rossi's new number but is actually the slightly eccentric stranger whom Hotch knows only as "Spencer." What follows is something neither man could have ever quite expected.

Summary
"Complicated didn’t even begin to scratch the surface of what he and Spencer have going on. It was a series of entangled webs they wove themselves into. It was Daedalian and it was Byzantine. It was a complete mess.
Yet, however terribly convoluted of a mess they made out of one another, to Hotch, Spencer was a noble pursuit of happiness. He was the only happiness, in his head, that was worth pursuing."
—
In which Reid has always been good at hiding things. He hid his father's departure and his mother's illness from social services. He hid his addiction from his team. He hid his sexuality from the world. He hid his inappropriate feelings from his boss.
That is until he's bleeding out in Hotch's arms, in an abandoned church, in Oklahoma.
From there on out, Hotch and Reid learn to make a complete mess out of each other.

Summary
Hotch purses his lips when Reid doesn’t respond, black eyes shimmering with a loaded determination.
“This only works if you trust me.”
It’s not blackmail or intentional guilt tripping, but it almost feels like it; if he lets his fear win, if he takes the out and pulls out of the mission, not only is he putting a stake through their most solid plan, but now he’s also telling Hotch he doesn’t trust him to have his back.
And unfortunately for Reid, there’s no known universe where he doesn’t trust Hotch with his life.
“I trust you.”
AKA Hotch and Reid go undercover to catch an unsub and get a little too into the assignment

Summary
Spencer carries his exhaustion like Atlas carries the globe, dragging himself to Aaron’s side when a case has taken a toll on him, never quite initiating but looking at Aaron with those same wide eyes that tell him exactly what Spencer wants, what he needs.
Aaron meets him with open arms every time, pulling him closer to tuck him into the space where Aaron’s neck and shoulder meet, a hand on the back of his skull to keep him there so Spencer doesn’t have to worry about when he’s supposed to pull away, how long he’s allowed to indulge. It’s as rewarding for Aaron as it seems to be for Spencer.
Over the months of this slow, developing change in their dynamic, Aaron is finding that he wants nothing more than to give Spencer what he needs.
AKA Spencer has always been touch averse. Aaron is realizing he may be an exception to the rule.

Summary
Spencer takes Hotch’s hand in his own and brings it across the space between them to rest over his knees, cradled in both of his hands like something precious. Hotch doesn’t object, silently watching Spencer’s movements with a wary tilt of his head.
“Do you always change parts of yourself to manage other’s perceptions?” The question trips past Spencer's lips before he can think better of it.
Hotch tenses, his hand clenching and unclenching in Spencer’s hold like he wants to pull away from the conversation, from Spencer. His hand stays in place.
“Doesn’t everyone?” He asks quietly, and something about his tone makes Spencer look up for the first time since he started this bizarre interrogation.
Spencer almost doesn’t want to break it to him.
“No,” he says, looking back to the hand in his lap and lacing their fingers together for a selfish moment, a breath, “not everyone.”
AKA A night out with the team quickly devolves, and Spencer’s still dizzy trying to put it back together.

Summary
"There were several things in Aaron Hotchner's life that had never made sense to him. He didn't understand why nearly everyone in his family (minus his son Jack) couldn't quite fathom why he felt drawn to the BAU. He didn't get how so many people in the world had such depraved mindsets. And he wasn't entirely sure why he still hadn't drug-tested his team's tech analyst, Penelope Garcia. (He was also confused about her relationship with Derek Morgan, but he wasn't going to touch that with a ten foot pole.)
But what baffled Hotch the most was how someone who was as intelligent as Spencer Reid could be so inherently oblivious."
xxx
Written for the prompt: I've seen a lot of oblivious!Hotch fic, but how about Reid being oblivious of his own feelings for Hotch? Hotch is aware, and reciprocates. Fluffy journey of realization maybe? Bonus for Garcia being helpful.

Summary
Set of AU connected one-shots where Luke and Lorelai develop a relationship much sooner than they do in the show--while Rory is still a baby.
Lorelai is new to Stars Hollow and, in classic Stars Hollow fashion, the town sticks their collective noses in her business.
Decided to rip this off my old FF.net account, polish it up, and post it here. It was originally discontinued, but I intend to give it a proper resolution this time around.
