I totally ship. But only in fandom/fanfic, because if I ever saw any real relationships beyond mild flirting in canon, I'd stop watching. But, that's what fanfic is FOR, in my opinion.
I'm a Hotch/Reid girl. I do dabble in (and read) pretty much every other type of slash, because I am a romantic idealist and believe in a world where it is not only okay but straight-up ENCOURAGED for pretty, pretty boys to kiss each other. \o/ I never said it was rational.
Um, I came into the show around mid-S2, and I remember being instantly taken by Reid. He was just so awkward and geeky and shiny and pretty and I wanted to pet him. Still do, mostly. =D
I think it was the hug in Revelations -- the secret message and the implicit trust and the passionate drive to save his team member (which, yes, okay, Hotch would have done for any of them, but that's not the point!). It all just came together to make me think they would be adorable with each other.

I never said I wasn't a sappy fangirl!
