If you stop caring, you’re jaded. But if you care too much, it’ll ruin you.
genuinely struggling to read emily's expression here as anything other than jealousy
I really love lines like these that show just how difficult JJ's job would be and I wish it was more thoroughly explored (maybe it is at some point. i don't know). She probably has dozens of stories like this; not even just ones where she feels like she made the wrong choice, but how many instances were there were JJ chose one case over another and it led to tragedy in the one (or multiple) she passed over? At what point does she stop feeling comforted by the knowledge that making a different choice just would have led to a different tragedy? How long until she feels less like she's weighing the danger and urgency of the various cases she's presented and more like she's weighing the value of peoples' lives?
SEASON SEVEN SPOILERS UNDER THE CUT
I think I'll come back to this once I get to profiler!JJ. I don't know whether or not she continues to select cases (I'm okay with spoilers regarding that), but I am honestly kind of dreading that arc. I just can't see myself finding "JJ switches jobs to become one of six profilers instead of the only media liason" interesting—maybe my opinions will change, maybe it's unfair to have an opinion on an arc before I get to it, but. That's how I feel. If she's no longer selecting cases once she becomes a profiler, though, there could be something interesting there. Kind of similar to Hotch's line in 1x13:
"You know, I had prosecuted dozens of murder cases, and by the time they reached my desk it always felt like it was too late. And I wanted to stop them before they got to my desk."
Maybe JJ can no longer handle choosing who to save, and decides to take a more active role in the saving. Or maybe I'm talking blindly about an arc I haven't seen. Who knows.

i have all the feelings about the hugs at the end of revelations as everyone else does but i have especially big feelings about the fact that. yeah theyre hugs. but theyre also physically holding him upright. if you watch while him and jj are hugging, jj even seems to buckle a little. i need to lay down for several hours
oh, is it now?

spencer is totally ready to give the profile.
i'm very normal about the team taking care of jj on the jet after 5x7. just. so normal. (lying)
thinking about what it must have been like for jj and her family after her sister's suicide. living in a small town (a population of 2136 in 2010) where everyone knows everyone. possibly quite religious. the way everyone would look at them. the way everyone would look at her. the way she can never go back, because they'll always look at her like that. and maybe that's why she keeps it a secret from the team for so long—she spent so much time with everybody knowing, once she's somewhere else, she wants nobody to know.
now why would you do this to me

when jj is saying goodbye to penelope and then says "there's one more thing i need to do before i go" with that long moment of silence and eye contact and walking slowly towards her. for the briefest moment i forgot what show i was watching and fully thought they were going to kiss
LOOK AT THEM READING TOGETHER,,,i can hear them bickering already. jj constantly telling reid she wasnt done and him bitching before turning the page back. the reason theyre making the faces they are is because reid has read this page five times already and jj has told him a thousand times to wait until she says she's done before turning the page but he doesn't LISTEN!!!
