Summary
Emily is done with the JTF-12. She’s done moving all over the world pretending to be different people. And she’s done not having somewhere to call home. DC might not really qualify as home -yet - but it’s as close as it gets and she needs it to work.
She buys an apartment, gets a cat, and hopes for the best, as she battles the shadows of her past. She isn’t expecting help to make this new-old city her home, but she gets it anyway when she meets a four-year-old who thinks she’s a vampire and his gorgeous mom.
Suddenly, a new life seems so much easier - and so much more promising.

Summary
Michael is okay. Kids are resilient and even with Henry off to college, he’s got no shortage of male role models to choose from. Luke is his favourite, which JJ is pretty sure is only because Luke is Aunty Penelope’s favourite and Michael worships the ground she walks on. So, Michael has Luke and Penelope, Henry has Spence, and JJ has all of them and none of them. Most days it feels like she’s on her own.
“That’s not totally true though,” Dr. Ochoa says. “You have Emily.”

Summary
In the wake of Will’s death, JJ has everyone in her corner… except her oldest friend. Despite their THC-laced Cheetos night and the impassioned confession “it gives me you,” Emily is more distant than ever.
Meanwhile, Emily is holding everyone at arm’s length… especially the woman she loves. Two decades of suppressed feelings take a backseat to dismantling BAUgate for good and giving JJ space to grieve.
In our take on Season 18 of Criminal Minds Evolution (that will lack so much plot at times because we want these two idiots to finally be together), will JJ and Emily find their way home to each other? Or are they destined to dance around and around, never being brave enough to admit their feelings or act on them?
