Cm Posting - Tumblr Posts

it's so funny how the show spent like 5 seasons saying how important JJs position was as a media liaison and once she was gone and came back it was like oh no actually this whole job can just be split up between two people 🫶 turns out no one needed to do it after all

maybe its the comms girly in me but it could have been so interesting to see more of especially as we got more and more into the social media era

this is a woman who does not play about ray dun,

Listen, I love Jennifer Jareau, but she 100% has at least 3 different objects in her house that say ‘Live, Laugh, Love,’ and a mug that says something along the lines of ‘You can’t buy happiness, but you can buy Prosecco.’

I would love to hear your thoughts about Hotch and fire because I never really noticed it but when you point it out it does stand out as something he gets VERY affected by very quickly

its not the most obvious pattern, which is par for the course when it comes to anything relating to hotch’s past. but i think its sooo interesting that hotch seems to be on edge/more emotional when they deal with cases involving fire. in ashes and dust he seems particularly moved talking to the burn victim and insists on being the one to speak to her; in house on fire he averts his eyes from the burnt corpses and has a shorter temper; in devil’s night he’s antsy the whole case and makes brash decisions (like running into a burning building???)

its subtle changes, so subtle that im not entirely convinced im not just hallucinating it all, but it seems like there’s something there. especially during the final confrontation with the unsubs in each of those episodes: the steel-faced hotch is gone, and he seems incapable of hiding his fear. in devil’s night he has a hard time looking away from the unsub’s lighter; in house on fire he keeps glancing down at the spilled gasoline. if it was anyone else i wouldnt pay any mind, but hotch is known for staring down death (like with foyet). he’s.. uncharacteristically emotional

i feel like something must have happened. even gideon—who has better insight on hotch’s past than anyone—seems concerned when hotch volunteers to go to the burn ward or gets distracted looking at a child’s burnt shoe on the ground. the way hotch lingers on the picture of the mother with her son… something mustve happened in the past for him to take this so personally

im not sure what it is. again, we dont really know anything about hotch’s background (and what we do know is frequently contradicted a couple seasons later—like the way his father died) so its not like we have a lot to work with. simply because of his interaction with charlotte cutler, i think it might have something to do with his mom? we dont know anything about her outside other than her attending mary baldwin. there are just so many unknown variables and oddly intimate moments of connection he has with various abused-sons throughout the seasons

was he in a fire growing up? was his mother? maybe his mom was inside and he stood helpless on the outside, unable to save her? was it an arsonist? was it his father? or was it his mother herself—tired of her life and trying to tear it all down with her? was it all just a horrible accident? was it before or after his father’s death? was his mom dying the final push for hotch to stand up to his father?

there are just… so many questions. so many possibilities. but, whatever happened, hotch is definitely afraid of fire.

Thank you. For what? For being you.  Aw, thanks. I don’t know how to be anyone else. Yeah. That’s what I love about you.

this is why she had that "you don't trust women as much as men" locked and loaded ready to go

i love hotch going “i can’t trust you and i won’t tolerate a political agenda” to emily simply because she talked to the woman HE AGREED TO FOLLOW THE POLITICAL AGENDA OF !!!!!!

the level of defensiveness he is SUCH a man the amount of GASLIGHTING to go “did you tip her off????” after agreeing to not disclose the case to the media ksksksksk SIT YOUR ASS DOWN HOTCHNER

okay I also think its funny that Rossi had a daughter 30 years ago and when they meet he's like oh I was so young I was just a kid like my dude you were well into your 30s

since I'm someone that's deeply perfumed pilled, a scentmaxxer if you will I know in my heart of hearts that seasons 1-4 JJ is using Daisy by Marc Jacobs

wait absolutely fuck off, why is there an episode in season 10 that has this ending

one thing he'll do is have tears in his eyes

I will say that season 10 is so far the "social media evil phone bad" season which is funny given that the writers have clearly no clue how social media works so it ends up being overall a very boring after school special
