A man in a suit and striped tie stands a room with floor-to-ceiling windows with horizontal blinds. The subtitle at the bottom of the image reads: "Garcia, I love you."

On a grainy camera feed, a woman wearing a black blazer over a white shirt stares, shocked. To her right is a woman wearing a patterned sweater vest over a dark blue shirt, who is typing at a keyboard.

Indoors is Garcia, a blonde woman wearing a yellow top. She smiles, speaks into a headset, and then presses a button offscreen. Pink subtitles read: "You, my fine, furry friends, are welcome."

Indoors in a different office space is Hotch, a dark-haired man wearing a suit. He speaks, expression serious. White subtitles read: "Remind me to have her drug-tested."

my favourite thing about hotch's occasional moments of comedy is that he maintains his rbf. so deadpan even when silly

Garcia, a blonde woman wearing glasses, a headset, red top, and heart earrings, sits indoors, the background blurry. She speaks, seeming unsure. White subtitles read: "Sir, does this guy's stuff actually work?"

Garcia continues to speak, her expression falling further as she does. White subtitles read: "On real, breathing girls?"

Hotch, a dark-haired man in a suit, stands in a different indoor space and holds a phone to his ear. He furrows his brows, clearly confused, then subtly shakes his head to himself, clearing his expression before speaking. Yellow subtitles read: "Why are you asking me?"

Garcia shakes her head, blinking rapidly with her mouth downturned. White subtitles read: "I abhor the whole "chicks dig jerks" thing."

Hotch speaks, looking to the left as he does. Yellow subtitles read: "Well, fortunately, Garcia, you're one of the exceptions."

Garcia smiles and laughs giddily, leaning backwards and then forwards in her chair before pressing a button offscreen. White subtitles read: "Well, be still my bespectacled heart, so are you, sir."

Hotch smiles and ducks his head, speaking before hanging up the phone. Yellow subtitles read: "Thanks."

RAHHHH their friendship means so much to me hotch has his moments with the whole team but garcia is really the only one he regularly shows this amount of affection towards and i think he's far less prickly about the affection she shows to him than he is with other people. he can accept it from her oh i might write a whole thing on this later but. the team needs garcia in exactly the same way she needs to surround herself w nice things if that makes sense penelope garcia aaron hotchner garcia & hotch not fic criminal minds criminal minds rewatch criminal minds s04e09 criminal minds 4x9 52 pickup my gifs

do you ever think that the reason hotch is so willing to accept affection from garcia when he isn’t from the rest of the team is at least partially because receiving affection from garcia doesn’t force him to admit he is a person worthy of affection. because garcia is just Like That. when other people show affection towards him he bristles because he believes deep down that he is a bad person unworthy of love, but when garcia shows him affection, he can justify to himself that garcia is only affectionate towards him because she’s affectionate to everyone, not because he’s particularly deserving. weirdly, he accepts it because he can reject it. haha. i do.

i’m writing this in the breakroom at work sorry if it’s incomprehensible </3 when other people are nice to him he’s like ‘what the fuck. how dare you insinuate i’m a person. jail for 5000 years’ but when garcia is nice to him he can accept it because he can see it as indicative of how she views people rather than how she views him obviously he is wrong and in denial. someone hit this middle-aged man with the therapy stick criminal minds penelope garcia aaron hotchner garcia & hotch character analysis not fic

againnn the team needs garcia the same way she needs to surround herself with nice things just like how garcia needs to be able to look at pictures of baby pandas to remind herself that there are still good things in the world the team needs to be able to look at garcia to remind themselves that there are still good people in the world and to go a step further—that the world is made mostly of good things and good people that they deal in exceptions criminal minds aaron hotchner penelope garcia not fic criminal minds s04e19 criminal minds 4x19 house on fire garcia & hotch character analysis in tags at least lol

Indoors is Aaron Hotchner, a dark-haired man in a suit. To his left is Sherriff Eva Ruiz, a brunette woman wearing a sherriff's uniform, and to his right is David Rossi, a dark-haired man in a dark top. Ruiz is standing and shaking her head and Rossi is sitting while Hotch reaches for something offscreen and speaks. White subtitles read: "Thanks, Garcia."

Hotch lifts the object he was reaching for, a cellphone. Ruiz points at it and speaks. Yellow subtitles read: "If you're looking for a gift to get me, one of her would be greatly appreciated." Hotch smiles slightly.

Rossi speaks, looking down at a file and then up at Ruiz. He moves to stand up. Orange subtitles read: "We're pretty sure they broke the mold."

In an office, Aaron Hotchner, a dark-haired man in a blue suit, smiles warmly at Penelope Garcia, a blonde woman in an orange and white top with her back to the viewer.

everytime i think about hotch's dynamic with garcia i lose my mind. familial, platonic, romantic, however you view it (although the last of those is very underrated) it's so different and i think it's the best evidence of who hotch is internally, and that most of what he shows in the rest of the show is a mask.

hotch is far gentler with penelope than he is with the rest of the team, partially because she's the furthest removed from the rest of the team and he has the ability to treat her more gently, but also because he can relax around her. i don't even think hotch actively tries to treat garcia so gently, i think he just lets his guard down around her and the rest comes naturally. and also she's his favourite. i will accept no argument /hj

i can't Words today (been really busy these past couple weeks and im Gone) but i'll probably be deranged about this again later genuinely i would bet Real Money that if you looked at every single one of the times hotch smiles throughout the series penelope would get the most out of the team. possibly THE most just because of screentime (he definitely smiles more at jack because that's his literal child but we see far more of penelope) aaron hotchner penelope garcia garcia & hotch criminal minds criminal minds s06e20 criminal minds 6x20 hanley waters not fic criminal minds rewatch character analysis not a very good one but. it exists now
