Seriously Feeling The Desire To Write Some Missing Scenes Between Hotch And Garcia!  Some Ideas I Have:

Seriously feeling the desire to write some missing scenes between Hotch and Garcia!  Some ideas I have:

- Post Season 3 finale, the doctor tells Hotch he cannot fly due to his busted eardrum for a few weeks, so he ends up helping Garcia, staying in her office. They bring eachother breakfast in the morning, talk about the divorce/Jack/theatre/art/books and it totally makes up for the horrible time she had with Gideon in Season 1 ( the flowers and note that Hotch sends on Gideon’s behalf need to be acknowledged!)

-Post Season 9, Hotch comforting Penelope after shooting the unsub then teaching her to shoot. 

- Season 7 finale, their chat while they are dancing at the wedding, because he’s really managed to make her laugh and he is smiling, I think!

- Season 9, the Halloween episode, Hotch stays to help her clean up after her Day of the Dead party, she gives him his birthday card and present

- Post-performance after Garcia’s play in Reflections of Desire. Hotch gives her flowers in her dressing room, she invites him and the gang to come out for drinks with the rest of the cast! 

- Season 12 to 15 e-mails that are written but not sent between Garcia and Hotch ( they both chose the same codenames for eachother!) about their lives etc as they never got to say goodbye properly!

-Post Season 15, Hotch and Jack come back to Quantico, bump into Penelope, friendship is rekindled, they get super close, swapping horror stories about dates, spending lots of time together, and eventually get together romantically!  What would you like to see?  Other ideas gratefully received too!

And, when you do eat, make sure you have food with a bit of salt content, as if you’re drinking lots of water, and therefore urinating more, you’re losing salt and other minerals. I had sushi for lunch, it was so good!

It is nearly 40C here today, it’s hideous! 

🐨 Yo! Saw there’s a heatwave coming at you—it’s been in the 90s (F) here in my part of the US lately, so I sympathize. Luckily, as someone who bikes and treks through the heat with small children on a regular basis, I’m an expert in avoiding heat exhaustion!

1) Windows and fans are the best. The last thing you want is stagnant air. Some circulation is always good.

2) Water! You should be drinking more water than usual. Ideally, you want to drink before you actively feel thirsty. You’ll be sweating most likely, so your body will become dehydrated quicker. Better to pee a lot than pass out!

3) Make sure you’re eating. Sometimes heat can mess with your appetite, but you need to fuel your body since you’ll already have less energy than usual thanks to the heat.

4) Don’t be a hero. Maybe you CAN work out/go outside/other strenuous activity, but that doesn’t mean you have to. My mom is driving me to work on the worst days of the week for this reason. A chill day won’t hurt you, but heat stroke will.

5) Feel free to treat yourself. I like iced coffee or ice cream. It’s cold, and lifts spirits!

Hang in there!

I converted it to C and we're pretty much at the same temperature then... good luck to you, especially since you're working- I got lucky and one volunteering position is closed and the other should be when it's cooled down a little hopefully

These are very helpful and good tips, thank you so much!

If you're like me and suck at drinking water: put a straw in the glass. I don't know what it is about having a straw in my cup, but I've already drunk more water than I would in a day.

The food thing is so important as well. I know eating isn't always easy or fun, but you deserve food. Now and always. It isn't something you have to earn, it's simply something that you should have because you are a person and you need it. Eating something is better than not eating anything and there is no such thing as bad food.

A CHILL DAY WON'T HURT YOU, BUT HEAT STROKE WILL!

Please, just because it's hot does not mean you need to go sunbathing or to the beach. There will hopefully be other days where there isn't a threat to life but are still warm enough for all of these trips.

Funny story: my window of tolerance for lactose has increased e.g. I was able to eat some pizza and chocolate without feeling unwell, but it would appear that ice cream is still very much off the table... it was not good...

Iced coffee is good though! We have syrups so I may have some :)

You're the best, good luck with the heat and the children! We're in this together so if they share any other tips on the news/the internet I'll let you know (even though you'll probably know all of them since you're better acquainted with the heat lol)

Perfect choice, @hotchley​! Love that episode, Penelope is so sweet and strong and brave! Love how Hotch unquestioningly gives her the time off, as he gets that she has to do this for her own closure/healing, even though it’s not what anyone else on the team would do. The last few minutes always make me cry!

1) 6 months or so ago

2) I was intrigued by themetaphorgirl’s awesome AU ( Patron Saint of Lost Causes), thought the characters and series premise sounded awesome so ordered Season 1!

3) Garcia, as it’s rare to have a curvy woman in a role where she’s not just the quirky best friend. She’s super smart, really empathetic and wears colourful outfits. I just really relate to her! Hotch is joint favourite though, love his dry humour, his loyalty to the team and the fact he’s an excellent father and boss!

4) Gideon, because he was rude, especially to Garcia when he had to stay behind in Season 1. 

5) Gideon. Everyone seemed to think he was this amazing profiler, but all I got from him was distant and rude!

6) Kate Callahan. I thought she was really good at her job, but still had a soft gentleness to her, and she had flaws ( clumsy). I felt like she fitted into the team well and liked her storylines. I feel that lots of people disliked her.

7) Season 1 does a great job setting up all the characters. At the moment,in my rewatch,  4 and 5 are excellent.  8) Season 7 was pretty weak, I can’t remember any good/standout episodes except the last two, and there was little to no character development to my liking.

9) Seasons 1-4 had incredible, nail-biting cliffhangers at the end, which I would not have been able yo vope with if I’d been watching as the show aired!

10) I like Penelope, Route 66, the Halloween episodes, Omnivore, 100, the Maeve episodes... Any episode with a favourite character focus ( Penelope going to the killer’s execution, Derek and Buford, the Riley Jenkins episodes...)or a serial killer arc!

11) Anything with spies/CIA nonsense. Also, any of the episodes where the viewer knows who the unsub is from the start-I like to try and work out who it is for myself!

12) The ones involving torture/disfigurement- the eye stealer squicked me out recently, in my rewatch! Also anything involving child abuse upsets me.

13) I love lots of friendships in the show, but don’t ship anyone romantically during the show. I have a big soft spot for Hotch and Garcia’s friendship, and could see them getting together post-Season 15.

14) I liked that there were no romantic relationships between the main team, just super strong friendships!  15) Garcia and Morgan never fail to make me laugh or cry, Hotch and Rossi are great friends, but I particularly like Hotch and Garcia’s friendship, as on paper, it’s really unlikely, but they get each other!

16) Gideon and Garcia did not get on in Season 1! They bonded a little over Reid’s Season 2 kidnapping, which was nice, but overall had a terrible relationship!

17) Foyet, as he’s truly terrifyingly brilliant and he has such an emotional impact on the team! The Fisher King is also a close second. Also the Zugzwang killer, eek! 

18) I felt empathy for the killers whose horrible childhoods we saw onscreen, which I know is most of them! The woman who turns women into dolls broke my heart too. 

19) Hotch’s arc with Foyet ( and before and after) is really interesting. He starts off as a new dad, then a divorcee, then a single father, as well as dealing with leading/being part of a team.

20) Rossi or Prentiss. They both start off as quite distant, not quite part of the team, but they end up integrating and being key players and developing strong relationships with the rest of the team.

21) Garcia, she’s so bright and colourful, but her outfits are well thought out/coordinated. Also like Hotch’s style, he always looks like he’s come off a 40′s movie set with his suit, starched shirt and tightly knotted tie! In Route 66, in his very fancy suit, he looks great too, but can also pull off casual wear!

22) Hotch, looks and personality wise! I go for tall, dark and brooding, but with a dry sense of humour and a hidden kind heart. I really fell for him when he smiled ( dimples, swoon!) and I was head-over-heels when he bought Garcia flowers and wrote her a note, to smooth over Gideon’s faux-pas with her.

23) The team is as its best when it’s Hotch, Rossi, Prentiss, JJ, Morgan, Reid and Garcia, I feel. I liked all the different personalities and thought they all gelled well, so no-one extra needed.

24) Morgan going was sad, then, when I knew Hotch was leaving, I had to stop watching, at the end of Season 11. Emily Prentiss and JJ were also missed when they were away.

25) If Hotch had got a proper goodbye, I might have continued watching!  26) Gideon, for being rude and disrespectful to his team-mates and the other officers/police forces he failed to introduce himself to!  27) Tara or Callahan would have been great, albeit v different unit chiefs!

28) I’d probably be quite a good secretary, keeping the team organised and providing them with hot beverages and food. Or I could look after any children they rescue until their parents/guardians show up.

29) Garcia, for her dress sense and empathy, physical demonstrations of affection. I just wish I had her confidence and technical skill!

30) All by myself! Wish someone was there with me for the jump scares or very violent crimes!

31) Today, currently rewatching and am on Season 5.

32) only watched until the end of Season 11, couldn’t bear the thought of continuing the show without Hotch.

33) More backstories ( Emily’s dad, her childhood etc, JJ and her sister and her dad, Hotch’s mom....) 

34) There were some contradictions about Hotch’s dad’s death that I would have liked to see explained

35) Yes!

36) themetaphorgirl, for her fantastic AUs ( the team as teens/kids at boarding school called Patron Saint of Lost Causes and one where a young Spencer is adopted by Alex Blake and her husband) and lots of fanfiction.net stories. Also SecondChild, Restless Child on AO3!

37) PSOLC, Spencer Blake, Second Child....

38) Yes.

39) I’ve been playing in themetaphorgirl’s sandbox, with a short fic based in the PSOLC universe. I have lots of ideas for that and also want to write Pendlope and Hotch getting together at some point after Season 15 ends!

SVU Stabler kids’ schools

For fic purposes, I was trying to find out where some of the Stabler kids go to school.

In Season 1, we can assume Maureen goes to school that doesn’t have a uniform, and that is probably not single sex as she goes to the Homecoming dance in Wanderlust with a boy and see her dad drop her off towards the end of Sophomore Jinx and nobody seems to be wearing anything remotely similar to Maureen’s black top and white jeans.

In Season 6, Elliot goes to talk to Kathleen outside her high school, which is named as Glen Oaks High School. The exterior looks completely different to where Elliot dropped Maureen off in Season 1, and I think there are only girls around, so it could be single sex. There doesn’t seem to be any sort of uniform though, as all Kathleen’s friends are wearing wildly different outfits. 

In Season 3, Kathleen is shown to be struggling with several subjects so maybe Elliot and Kathy deemed a smaller school with fewer distractions might be better ( if there aren’t any boys that will minimise the boy drama) but Elliot mentions Kathleen’s former boyfriend, so I really don’t know, it could be the same school as Maureen’s.

In Season 11, Turmoil, we find out that Dickie goes to Cardinal Catholic Prep School, which has a pretty strict/smart uniform ( shirt, tie and blazer), and seems to be single sex as when the SVU squad come to interview Dickie’s classmates, we only see boys there. 

We know that Dickie got into a fight in Season 8, which would be middle school age. So maybe Elliot and Kathy thought he’d be happier/do better in a smaller school with more support and he’d have some more male friends/guy time as he seems to take Kathy and Elliot’s split very hard and seemingly only lives with his mum, sisters and grandma during their separation and doesn’t see his dad as much as he would like to. 

My head canon is that Lizzie goes to a performing arts school and they put on regular shows ( in Season 10 or 11, Elliot ends up going to one of them and mentions she was in Anne Frank before that). 

And Eli, when they are in Rome, goes to an International School where he has classes in English with other native English speakers and history, geography, science, maths etc are all in Italian, though the American section do focus on US history, geography and literature too, of course. 

When Eli returns to New York, he is several years ahead of his peers so is in all AP classes or joins the older students for their lessons and graduates early, at 16/17, to help with the wonky timeline as he is supposed to be at most 14 when Kathy dies ( and it’s probably closer to 13, really), if my maths is correct. Each Season is 6 months to a year long, with maybe a few “X months later” jumps, He left in Season 12, aged (nearly?)  3, came back in Season 22, so that’s 10 years give or take, plus let’s say 2 time jumps of 6 months each makes him 14. And by Season 3 he is already in college, which would make him 17-ish!

Criminal Minds fanfic au author

Hey, just read a whole 19 chapters of a Criminal Minds AU where Aaron Hotchner starts dating his neighbour, who works as a freelance photographer/graphic designer whose room-mate, Gwen Murphy, is the newest recruit to the BAU. Un-named neighbour/self-inserted reader and Aaron have a little girl together, called Olivia Emily. I’d love to find the author on here so I can read some of their other work ( one shots for the show, plus various other TV shows they are interested in too). Thanks a lot!

Some more thoughts on Season 16 of Law and Order SVU.

I miss Munch, particularly his snarky exchanges with Fin, which brought some levity to the darker episodes. Those two together were comedy gold and such a great partnership.

I’ve enjoyed seeing Carisi working with Rollins, he is v respectful of her and lets her take the lead, and offers to work with her quite a few times, and openly admits to her that he still has a lot to learn about the job. 

It is refreshing to see a team where everyone works well together, as Fin complained whenever he was paired with Stabler, and I think Stabler was a bit annoyed at being paired with Munch a few times too. 

Loved seeing Barba as a son and grandson, actually getting emotional, as, up until that point, I had found him a bit cold/robotic. 

The way he held Noah was hysterical as well, like he was holding a bag of toxic waste! Should have called Stabler or Carisi instead, Liv!

Adored meeting Bella, Carisi’s sister. I liked how non-judgemental he was about her maybe not keeping her baby as he didn’t say anything but was just quietly supportive. Stabler would have been more vocal in his Catholic views, I believe, 

Sonny’s anger is always so righteous but I feel he is always in control of it, so even though he was rough with Tommy, he didn’t go too far and beat him to a pulp/hit him. 

He also has a lot of empathy for the victims and their families, just like Olivia does, and he connects with people very easily, like with the lawyer daughter in the Marcia Cross episode where her character is married to a writer with ailing health. 

I love that he’s told his family about Olivia is awesome and that he loves his job and working for her, that was a sweet moment! 

Also, good job to the casting directors for the actress who plays Bella, she and Peter Scanavino look like they could actually be siblings!

He also did an awesome job being undercover, and looked super hot with the gelled back hair and the glasses.

The episode with Amaro’s dad reminded me a lot of Stabler and his equally awful childhood. They are both really hot-headed and internalise everything until they take it out on their lockers. At least Amaro is going to Anger Management classes!

I liked seeing Amaro with his ex’s boy, who he considers to be his son. He is also a good dad to his daughter, so that has made me warm to him a little more, though I still don’t miss him if he’s not there! 

Just finished watching the serial killer who is a doctor who has committed crimes in Chicago, New York and elsewhere. He was terrifying in the courtroom scene, loved seeing Coroner Warner, she’s so great and one of my favourite minor characters. 

I now want to rewatch the ep he is in from somewhere between Season 5-8, as the passing of time on this show is Very Wonky ™! 

I am approaching the end of the Season, I think I will be getting Seasons 17 to present day too, even if they are in French and I have to deal with names being mispronounced ( Ezzer for Heather was particularly bad!).

I also googled the William Lewis scenario and it seems like I bypassed it and there is zero chance he will ever come back, as K could barely cope with reading about it let alone watch it!

I love this episode!

I think the crime investigation is interesting, and it has lots of potential suspects who are intriguing.

I love Benson’s line « It’s Detective, not Miss » as it reminds me of Spencer Reid in Criminal Minds who is being questioned about something and gets annoyed, gets reprimanded but replies wit( « This is calm and it’s Doctor! ». Such similar energy!

I also adore Benson’s reply to the University priest, when talking about stalking as a crime, he says « it’s in the eye of the beholder » and Olivia says it’s not, it’s in the eye of the District Attorney. Just a brilliant comeback!

My favourite parts of this ep were Stabler and Maureen’s interactions.

She clearly has no idea why he’s asking her to breathe on him to see if she’s been drinking, showing that she’s still innocent.

I think this episode shows just how stubborn they can both be ( Kathleen, Dickie and Eli all seem to share this trait with him, which we see in later episodes: the Season 11 episode with Dickie’s friend Shane, countless episodes for Kathleen and probably for Eli too, where they refuse to talk to their dad because they are angry/upset with him) and how their relationship is shifting. I think the grounding lasts about a week, and at least one day ( after she sneaks down to help with dinner prep and won’t tell her dad where she was/what she was doing/who she was with) where she’s not speaking to him at all. 

In the previous episode, she doesn’t want him to kiss her on the lips when he’s been called in to work, and, in the second episode ( the one with the models and eating disorders), Kathy tells Elliot he should talk to her because she listens to him, and she won’t talk about her eating habits. So lots of little signs/hints that they aren’t as close as they once were. 

Later in the show, we find out that Elliot was at home during the day when Maureen was little  while Kathy studied/worked and he took night classes/work shifts. He mentions taking her grocery shopping, to the park etc, so would have had a lot of interaction with her, playing with her, helping her learn new skills, teaching her social rules etc… That’s got to have made them very close ( definitely a Daddy’s girl!) , and she’s obviously upset and annoyed that her dad always has to leave for work when family time is planned. 

Before their reconciliation chat, when they are in the car, I think both actors nailed the portrayal of how tense things are between them. She doesn’t say goodbye to him when she gets out of the car, let alone look at him, there’s no music playing and it’s just uncomfortably quiet.

It contrasted nicely with the Season 2 premiere, where they are in the car, Maureen fiddles with the radio ( so she gets to choose the music) and they have some teasing banter ( about tattoos and just wait until you have kids).

Their reconciliation scene echoes/parallels their opening scene. He calls out to her, just like he does at the beginning, and she really doesn’t want to have a conversation with her dad. He responds to her annoyed « What? » in a similar tone to her answers to his questions when he’s caught her sneaking back in, which I thought was a nice little callback, and a sweet/funny way to show her how annoying/frustrating it is to not get a straight answer. Plus he tells her that he hates being in a Cold War with her as much as she is visibly hating it, and reassures her that he loves her. 

I like that he can get through to her just how scared he is that she’s going to end up hurt or worse without going into graphic detail, and the second he can see she’s upset, he opens his arms to hug her.

Her apology is very sweet and heartfelt, and I adore that he says he’s sorry too. 

Their hug is short but full of affection, I love the little squeezes they give each other, it’s clear they’ve missed that aspect of their relationship, and Stabler is very physically demonstrative with his kids ( he’ll kiss them on the head, put his arm around them, lets the little ones snuggle up to him when he’s reading to them or  climb all over him when he’s on the phone, picking Dickie up to make him fly across the climbing frame, draping his suit jacket over Maureen’s shoulders at the picnic at the park in the next episode ). 

Milquetoast watches Sophomore Jinx

Sophomore Jinx S1xE6 Special Victims Unit: Episode Review

what this episode is about: Benson and Stabler suspect a pair of college basketball players of murdering a female student, but officials don’t want to draw negative attention to the school.

What I think this episode is about:

Father/Daughter Growing pains

________________________________________________________________

Milquetoast Watches Sophomore Jinx

Oooooh! Maureen you are so busted!!! If only Elliot hadn’t been called in the middle of the night she might never have been caught.

I never realized how much SVU had originally focused on Elliot’s home life in the first season. Maureen specifically has had a significant role the past few episodes. Lots of teenage angst and how that effects Elliot.

Elliot: “Breathe on me.” - Maureen is so creeped out by that. And she seems so confused. Hint: he wants to know if you’ve been drinking. Elliot is so haunted by his work he is suspicious of everyone. What’s interesting here is that Maureen seems to be having a hard time with Elliot leaving all the time to go to work. In the middle of the night, in the middle of their dinner, in the middle of a PTA meeting.
