Definitely going to have to dedicate this to morejoyful; without her, this might never have been posted. This is a coda to CM's 2x15: "Revelations." Enjoy!

They won't stop staring at him. )

I love fics like yours where people are exhausted and just trying to sleep, and I especially love it when they are gen and I am looking for gen and not slash and stumble across one :)

This was sweet. I liked how Hotch pulled Reid back and pulled him down and told Reid to go back to sleep, so Reid knew it was ok. Aaww.

I am beginning to refer to my Reid and Hotch as cuddle-bunnies. They're making this into a pattern. Thanks for reading! :)

I really like the quietness of this. I always imagine such a pervading silence in the immediate aftermath of Revelations. That plane ride haunts my imagination, so it was lovely to read your take on it. I especially loved the eyes of the team upon him and the way he recognizes but doesn't acknowledge it. Thank you for sharing.

Gah, Ginny, thanks. Your comment just took me back to the headspace I was in while writing, and silence was definitely a theme. Thanks.

I've actually just been rewatching the earlier seasons and, of course, Revelations is a must-see even though it hurts. This fic was a perfect coda to the episode, soothing and quiet and exactly the sort of comfort needed in order to release the tension. Well done.

It's some kind of hurt, isn't it? I knew the plot of the episode and it was still awful. But thank you for the kind words! :]
