I Love How We All Seem To Have Collectively Decided That Spencer Has Echolalia And Uses It To Communicate

I love how we all seem to have collectively decided that Spencer has echolalia and uses it to communicate when overwhelmed by repeating what people say back to them or quoting some book or statistic.

i have a visceral reaction whenever i see spencer reid. he makes me want to bite my pillow, kick my legs, scream, stop breathing, giggle, i just AH

"Yeah stuck in traffic 🤨"

i love this line and this scene in general so much. they're trying to figure out what "hour be none" means and reid walks in and gives the answer (with some mostly unnecessary but endearing additional info) and elle responds so affectionately. i really loved their dynamic, however you view it.

bonus (cropped from the next shot):

“please let me care for you, let me love you despite your flaws.”

[this was initially meant to be a part of a more general spencelle textpost collection, but i felt it deserved its own post 🫶🏻 i swear these two and there soft, doomed by the narrative, relationship keep me up at night]
