AARON HOTCHNER + THE GREY SHIRT

hi hi!! how are youuu??💓 i don’t think i’ve ever dropped anything into your inbox (shame on me) BUT let’s talk about going on vacation with aaron🥹 i just know he’d try and make it as special as possible for you <3

you’d spend the day walking through the town you’re staying in, taking in all the little cafes and shops, getting gifts for jack (and maybe also the team), also, you’d go to the beach, sunbathing together, maybe going for a swim. later on you get ready for dinner, him watching you intently while putting your makeup and jewellery on etc😵‍💫🥰 after dinner you’ll absolutely be going for a late night walk on the beach, hand in hand, and every day feels just like a dream at this point🥺😭 as you can tell i’m down BAD lmaooo

HIII my sweet i'm doing well, i hope the same for you 💓 and hehe i'll forgive you since you brought up aaron on vacation 🤭🥰 absolutely YES <333

just 🥹 seeing aaron so carefree <3333 he's entirely a different man while on vacation. no stress on his shoulders (you won't even allow the premeditative stress because you know his mind will drift to everything waiting at home), sleeping in, eating yummy food rather than the usual takeout while on a case. AND undivided and uninterrupted time with you?? that's his vacation right there 🥰🥰💓💞

exploring the cute town together is the first thing you do - kinda. your flight lands mid-afternoon, so by the time you get to the hotel, unpack, refresh, it's getting dark. you more so get a preview - getting some dinner there, walking past some shops (hehe you nudge aaron as you pass a souvenir one, 'we have to come back and get something for jack 🥺🥹'). it's just such an amazing feeling - knowing your vacation has just started and you have a few days of fun ahead 🥹 hehe you're giddy, clutching onto aaron's hand as the two of you walk and you're talking his ear off, all while he's gazing at you ohhh so lovingly <333 💞💓💞 and then the following day, you come back and really explore.

beach days with aaron 🥰🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 the sound of the ocean, with him so close, could there be anything better?? likewise, you're soaking in the one on one time. it feels so rare to have at times, and you best believe you're not going to take advantage of his time-off for a second. aaron does get a lil grumpy because he gets sunburnt >:( despite applying sunscreen multiple times. to be fair, he was more concerned that you were fully covered and protected. but you volunteer to rub aloe on his back, and he's all smiles 🤭❤️‍🔥

stopppp walking on the beach during sunset 🥹 hand in hand while waves are lightly crashing at your feet 🥰🥰 you're right the literal dream

Painfully Obvious

The partner piece to Imperceptible Movements, where Emily and Aaron are just too painfully obvious.

And the one time that they weren’t.

Derek

There were some benefits to profiling that Derek has used to his advantage over the course of his career. His experience in criminal psychology translated to simpler psychoanalysis - assessing whether or not his sisters were in a foul mood based on how many times they sighed in one family dinner, choosing his line at the coffee shop based on how disgruntled the cashier was acting that morning, picking his moments to swing by Penelope’s desk with their favorite Thai food when a case hits her closer to home than she would ever admit.

However, there were times where he wished he could stop his initial reflex of dissecting a person’s behavior, instinctually aware of the motivations behind their actions - especially when said person is his partner.

Even more when his said partner is dating their boss.
