In the woods at daytime, a man in a blue sweater and a man in a brown and white striped button-up, both wearing brown coats, look down and offscreen. There are two other men in the background, one taking photos of what the other men are looking at.
The man in the blue sweater turns to look at the man in the brown and white striped button-up, who continues to look sadly down and offscreen.
The man in the brown and white striped button-up turns to look at the man in the blue sweater, clearly upset.
The man in the blue sweater has his arm around the man in the brown and white striped button-up, pulling him in for a side-hug. They have both returned to looking down and offscreen.

this scene makes me need to lay down. goddddd.

sometimes i get the sense that reid is more attached to gideon than gideon is to reid. obviously they both serve as surrogates for the family member each is estranged from (gideon is estranged from his son and reid is estranged from his dad) but.

you know. reid clings to gideon, not physically but emotionally, and i think a lot of his wellbeing at the start of the series relies on gideon's presence. gideon almost certainly knows the most about reid out of anyone on the team—i don't think canon ever says that reid has told gideon about diana, but i would imagine he has—and i think reid feels understood by him in a way he doesn't by other people, even compared to the rest of the team who (mostly) try their best. i think he also tends to try to be as good and deserving as possible of gideon's presence, since he definitely at least partially feels like his father left because he wasn't good enough.

on the flipside, while gideon definitely sees reid as a son, he's...not the best dad. i think we see him repeating a lot of the mistakes that drove a wedge between him and stephen with reid, and i think that had mandy patinkin stayed on, we would have gotten a larger parallel there. he holds him at arms length, trying not to get too close, although he definitely cares about him more than he lets on and the mask slips sometimes, like this moment and on the plane after ldsk.

not fic criminal minds criminal minds rewatch criminal minds s01e12 what fresh hell spencer reid jason gideon spencer reid & jason gideon character analysis scene analysis i guess theres a darker argument that gideon lets himself show these moments of affection to keep reid attached to him and i can see that and on some level i agree but i dont think its intentional while reid tries to make himself good enough for gideon to stick around gideon naturally tends towards distance and being quite aloof but knowing that that's part of what drove stephen away he lets these small moments happen in hopes that reid will stick around in the hope of more they are mirrors do you see the vision fucked up old man who needs therapy + fucked up young man who needs therapy = ideal father/son relationship a decent amount of this is extrapolation and personal feelings abt the characters hopefully its not too out there gideon & reid favourites criminal minds 1x12

Two men indoors, one in a white shirt leaning forward and one in a blue shirt leaning back. The subtitle at the bottom of the image reads: "Damn it, Reid. I said, "Don't take the vest off.""

and thus begins the pattern

A man in a dark shirt enters a hallway lined with coats of various colours. A woman in a dark jacket is mid-turn, startled by his approach. The subtitles at the bottom of the image reid: -"Hey." and -"Dude!"
The man in the dark shirt leans one shoulder against the doorframe, amused and smiling. The subtitle at the bottom of the image reads: "Dude? Okay, you're way too tense."
The woman in the dark jacket walks down the hallway, head turned to look back at the man coming inside. The subtitles at the bottom of the image read: -"No, I'm not." and -"Yes you are. You got anything?"

morgan and elle's friendship is so severely underrated and i wish we'd gotten more of them. they go on vacation together! there are also some lines in the first episode that, at least to me, imply that they knew eachother before. morgan is introduced talking to/quizzing trainees, so that seems like the most likely way, but. i don't know. i love them and i would have been curious to see how it would have been elaborated upon had lola glaudini stayed on.

(side note: i love morgan's pose and face in the second screencap. he's so silly)

not fic criminal minds criminal minds rewatch criminal minds s01e11 elle greenaway derek morgan elle & morgan i see them as friends but i could also see them having a thing honestly the whole cast has such good chemistry with eachother even the ships i dont like im like “yeah i get why you would ship that” most of them some confuse me but there aren't really any ships i have outright negative feelings towards also: random curiosity. a part of me wonders if the beginning of this scene (the parts in the post) was scripted? i dont know. lola's “dude!” feels very genuinely startled and i dont think “you're way too tense” is ever elaborated upon i have no idea though lmao she could just be a good actress! i am once again babbling in the tags. ill shut up now blood hungry criminal minds 1x11
