Another random question!

[hopskotch-hotch.livejournal.com]

Hi everyone, hope you all had a good weekend!

Monday blues are hard to beat, so I thought I'd throw out another light-hearted question - responses to my last q. were trés interesting (everyone wanted to be Garcia for a day!).

So, here it is: The profilers have a rare weekend of freedom, and have made no plans. You have the opportunity to have one of the team for the entire weekend, to spend the time as you choose (profilersitting; an advanced form of babysitting) - 

Who do you choose, and how would you spend your time (unlimited cash and resources at hand; remember though - the poor BAU jet needs a break too!)?

awww! :( Major empathy with ya - I get really bad sinus infections too, and I know how much it sucks. The pain - yikes!
Maybe doc Reid's company might distract you, and anyway, he'd most likely be able to recommend the best remedy for sinus problems, because he probably has an encyclopedic knowledge of drugs and their effects - you win! :D

Hotch at a carnival eating candyfloss! *g*

and as for the rest of the weekend... well, let's just say we wouldn't need any money to amuse ourselves. *drools*

I second that emotion! lol
I think I'd need some champagne and a king-size water bed, though, to make Hotch giggle ;)

Hey no problem, like I said, I know how it is! :/

It's okay to digress too - CM fans helping each other! I'm gonna digress slightly (I know this ain't the forum but I've found something that helps with the SIs, and I'm sure nobody will take offense...) - have you ever tried nasal irrigation? My mother (a nurse) made me do it years ago when I was in so much pain I could barely stand it. Simple, a bit uncomfortable, but it really, really works! Pain gone within half an hour everytime.

[hopskotch-hotch.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, I'm an ass :-P

yes, HOTCH! *hee!*

[sassyback.livejournal.com]

I'd take Reid clothes shopping, and then we'd sit and watch Buffy (He is totally a fan. Seriously! Really!). Poor boy needs some awesome clothing.

[buffyaddict13.livejournal.com]

reid + buffy = BRILLIANT SUGGESTION! ;-P

[sassyback.livejournal.com]

Of course!
I'd have to invite you, too :p

The big question is...which Buffy girl (or guy!) would he go for? I'm thinking Willow.

[buffyaddict13.livejournal.com]

willow!!!!11

*loves*

yes and yes. and in angel he'd like fred and in ff he'd like river.

what? it's not like i've thought about this.

[sassyback.livejournal.com]

Willow is like, every nerdy person's fantasy. Willow ftw.

*has never watched Angel or FF* *fails*

Don't worry, I spent time working out which Buffy episodes Reid would like. Earshot would probably bum him out, but he'd do secret karaoke to OMWF, for example.

[mcgarrygirl78.livejournal.com]

Crap! There is Derek Morgan, for the dreadfully obvious reason. But honestly, I would go with Gideon. He can cook, he can slow dance, and the man can sing. I can make him forget all about that horrible stuff at the BAU for just one weekend. Yeah, Gideon FTW!!!!

[hopskotch-hotch.livejournal.com]

obvious reasons are good enough for me :D

You know, Gideon would be an amazing guy to spend a weekend with - you're completely right! Yep, yep, the cooking, the dancing, and aww, he'd serenade you!! And he'd have so many stories to tell, I doubt you could ever get bored in his company.

the man can sing

Sure can!! I have most of his albums (crazy Mandy lover that I am) - keep me sane sometimes :)

[elizaswain.livejournal.com]

All I need is Reid and a hotel room. :)

[emily-sheppard.livejournal.com]

I second that with either Reid or Hotch (or both, if I can)

[emily-sheppard.livejournal.com]

no big detailed plan necessary

[elizaswain.livejournal.com]

Yeah! I was wondering later if I could add Morgan.

[hesnamewasperry.livejournal.com]

you stole my answer 8D!

[lumiere-noire.livejournal.com]

Penelope and shops. %)
That would be amazing.))

[asthenie-vd.livejournal.com]

Seconded.
She would have to show me where she gets all her stuff and not the other way 'round though. XD

[hopskotch-hotch.livejournal.com]

I hear ya ;)

[drftngwy.livejournal.com]

i would take penelope and we'd go to the mall for shopping, shopping, a movie, and more shopping. That'd be way too fun. :)

[buffyaddict13.livejournal.com]

ooooh. *clappyhands*

great question!

i'd be tempted to choose garcia or emily.

but i would have to choose doctor spencer reid. omg, thought of a weekend with reid is beyond awesome.

i would take him to chicago for the weekend.

we'd go out to eat (no chopsticks involved) wherever he wanted to go. i'd recommend the daniel burnham hotel downtown though. we'd go to navy pier and ride the ferris wheel and i'd buy him funnel cake. i'd ask him to teach me physics magic. i'd bring my bsg dvds and we'd watch it at the hotel and he'd tell me if ftl travel is possible. we'd play chess. i'd comb his hair. i'd ask him to wear his glasses. i'd take him out for coffee to a coffee shop that plays jazz and we'd sit and read the newspaper. i'd try to teach him how to hug without looking like he's getting his foot stepped on. we'd go to the museum of natural history and he could tell me the real history behind everything.

I CAN HAZ THIS, YES?

ETA: okaaaay. so my response is slightly more deranged detailed than some other people's. i am not ashamed. tttthhbt.

[hopskotch-hotch.livejournal.com]

Oooh Buffy response! :D

Hmmm, yup, nobody's said Emily, but she'd be fun I reckon! We just know you couldn't have anything but fun with Penelope, so it's a no-brainer :-P

But yes, yes, you must have young Spence for the weekend - it just wouldn't be right otherwise...

Maybe I'm just a big bundle of emotionality and such, but your description of the weekend was so...lovely! It kind of made me mist up, I could see him doing all those things and having the best time, the perfect day!
*nods* the hair combing, the wearing of the Buddy Holly glasses!!! See, you just want to make him feel nice and neaten him up a smidge, everyone else wants to chop off his locks and make him more fashionable and mainstream, but that boy's got style! Even the wearing of the wristwatch over the cardigan is stylish, it's Reid! :)

You might need a couple of weekends for the real history of everything, but that could be arranged ;)

I CAN HAZ THIS, YES?

Don't see why not! lol

i am not ashamed

Nor should you be - if you can pickaprofiler and adopt him/her for a few days, it is right and healthy and noble to make grand plans!

P.S. icon is fabulous! *g*

*beams* thank you sweetie. feel free to hang out with us. :-)

i love reid's too long hair and baggy sweaters and glasses and watch-over-the-sleeve and his vests. *happy sigh* i love his style.

\0/ YES!

that's what the bau needs, an adopt-a-profiler program. *volunteers*

P.S. icon is fabulous! *g*

*glees* thank you! you can snag it if you want. it's just perfect for when i'm feeling like a dork...which is most of the time. meep.

[xtinethepirate.livejournal.com]

i'd bring my bsg dvds and we'd watch it at the hotel and he'd tell me if ftl travel is possible.

Oh EPIC win. Can I come too?

[buffyaddict13.livejournal.com]

the more the merrier!!!

:D

[a_blackpanther]

Well, this is an easy one. All of them of course!

I'd take the girls & Reid shopping (cause he really needs to get some better clothes!). Ooh, and a hair cut!

Then i'd take all of them for a nice lunch and a lazy afternoon so that they could could get some sun & fresh air.

And then i'd go clubbing with them!

[parisntripfan.livejournal.com]

I'd take Reid to one of the big scifi/media fan cons in the general DC area. ShoreLeave and Faripoint (both north of Baltimore - about 1 1/2 drive form DC area) are both pretty good cons. Reid would have blast being able to geek about scifi stuff without anyone thinking it is strange. And the fans there would love to quiz him on the details of the shows.

spencer :]
idk. just chill, maybe draw a bit. go where ever the night calls us. hehe.

[meg-tdj.livejournal.com]

Hotch!! Definitely Hotch. I'd make him actually sit down and RELAX for once while teaching me everything he knows about profiling. :P

[antoinettemason.livejournal.com]

i think it'd be lots of fun to get reid slightly tipsy and take him to a karaoke bar.

[hopskotch-hotch.livejournal.com]

Whoop! What would he drink/sing???

[antoinettemason.livejournal.com]

ahaha, probably something deceptively strong like a fruit-flavored margarita. a couple of those and he'd be belting out "born to be wild" with the best of 'em! XD

[dragonladyk.livejournal.com]

Hotch. Babylon 5 marathon. Because, seriously, HE IS JOHN. And he'd get a kick out of Susan. Granted, there'd probably be some kind of hike/bike break thing in the middle because he looks like he likes activity, but other than that -- introducing Hotch to the Minbari.

I want to get Prentiss, JJ and Garcia together for drinks and girl talk. We can talk about the guys all night. :-) And if I could get Garcia to upgrade my computer...well, that would be too much like work for her.

I want to take Spencer to a bar for Trivia Night. He'd kick ass at trivia. And at some point I want to try to get him to take the Autism Quotient test to see if I can prove he really is an Aspie.

[xtinethepirate.livejournal.com]

I have to say I would take Reid, just because otherwise I imagine he wouldn't do much by himself. Poor thing needs someone to look after him.

Clearly, after his lecture to Morgan about the science of the Death Star, we would need to have a Star Wars marathon. We could snicker at the poor dialogue, he could lecture about how the science would REALLY work (and teach me how to build a lightsabre?), we would note how Obi-Wan and Anakin are totally doing it, and add "motherfucker" to the end of all Mace Windu's lines.

Then we would have to go to a swanky hotel. I would ply him with a martini or two to get him liquored up (somehow, I don't think it would take more than that for Reid) and then call Hotch to come and pick up his poor, drunken self.

When Hotch arrived, Reid would be the only one there. Wearing naught but a bow. Hotchner could then enjoy his weekend, too. :)

[anise-starr.livejournal.com]

I would hang out with Rossi. I was upset when Gideon left because I really liked him a lot and I didn't think that I would like his replacement. But Rossi really grew on me. He seems to be a very nice person. And since he has has so much experience, I would like to hang out with him and pick his brains. I bet he would have some very interesting stories.

have you ever tried nasal irrigation? My mother (a nurse) made me do it years ago when I was in so much pain I could barely stand it. Simple, a bit uncomfortable, but it really, really works! Pain gone within half an hour everytime.

I do the nasal irrigation thing too, I have major sinus problems. I have sinusitis from allergies.

[a_blackpanther]

Wow, you;re the only one who picked Rossi. Interesting choice and reasoning though. And yeah, he would have some interesting stories about how the BAU started.

[anise-starr.livejournal.com]

Yes I noticed that no one else picked Rossi. I think that he would be an interesting person to hang out with.

That being said, it doesn't mean that I wouldn't want to spend some "special time" with Morgan. ;)

[woodchoc-magnum.livejournal.com]

I'm surprised nobody has said anything dirty, and because my mind is in the gutter, I'll just say it.

Hotch and I, a hotel room, a bowl of strawberries and a bowl of melted chocolate.

You do the math. ;-)

[amaranth-moon.livejournal.com]

Does nobody dare to voice the obvious?

My ideas wouldn't be far from yours, though :o)

A beautiful sailboat, a nice lake and a view of mountains surrounding it, lots of sun, the scent of sunscreen, a couple of bottles of champagne, and Hotch.

Weekend ahoy!!

B-)
