Wonderful. Absolutely wonderful. And yes, Reid is, indeed, a very, very pretty boy.

I loved all of these, but especially the one with Jack and the last one with Reid's intense dislike for Strauss. I love that he was so pleased when Hotch teased him (I loved that line on the show too, btw; it indicated to me that Hotch was healing a little). I love the reason for Reid's haircut too and how no one (but Rossi) would know.

Great job.

The last one was actually the only thing I had and I needed to create something to counter balance Reid's decision. Glad it worked out. Thanks for dropping by and leaving the feedback. Always appreciate another writer's acknowledgment. :D

He irritated me a bit when he appeared, though, but that was only because the name you picked for the scout constantly had me thinking of sniper-I-hate-you-dude Mick, which was a bit confusing.

LOL. OMG, I swear I totally forgot about that Mick. The name just came to me and I tried another but nothing sounded right for the story as Mick, lol. Now I'm a bit confused too. I hope I didn't confuse too many readers.

Not sure what to make of the part with Gideon - so he’s watching Spencer and it sounds like he’s a stalking creep

Hee, I didn't mean to make him a stalker. I just thought he might keep up with the team via the news and internet and whatnot. Plus stalking played pretty nicely as a parallel with Reid's father. I didn't think it at the time but now I started to get it why I wrote it that way.

And I would have expected nothing less from you than Hotch being the only reason why Spencer would willingly cut his hair.I always thought Reid had a good reason for it, and since I'm H/R fan, I was being a bit biased, but I guessed it

You are amazing. This is phenomenal and I read it TWICE!!! This Spencer is older, more mature, and confident. I smell an HR follow up in the air.....

Hey you! Posting this got me pretty nervous. So glad it turned out well. I always see Reid as a mature and confident man. With his childhood and how other people tend to treat him, he was bound to become his own man to survive and stay sane. Don't know about the follow up, I have other plotbunnies running around and virtually no time to do them justice. Thanks for the lovely words, hun!

Yay for the comedy comment! I always wanted to put some humor in everything I write but writing comedy IS hard. Glad you liked it. Thanks for coming by. :D

I would definitely want to run my hair through Reid's hair, short or not. *lol* Loved this fic :) *sneezes*

Who doesn't? Especially with his boyband haircut. Thanks for reading. Glad you enjoyed it.
