observations

I was watching some early-season re-runs on A&E last night, and the early episodes of the show make me smile. i'm glad to see the show progress to where it is now.

here are a few things i noticed that are different from now, feel free to add on/ discuss:

Hotch and Elle chemistry. 

Reid's combed back, shorter hair

Reid's short sleeved button up plaid shirts

Morgan with hair.

Hotch making jokes

"Spence" / oddly maternal JJ

green screen flash backs to unsub behavior while explaining

Hahah, ty on both counts! :D

I love writing Hotch/Elle. I've done two fics so far (took a break from the long fic for a smutty one-shot written for a challenge) and I hope I'll have time to write once school starts back up again. I wish there were more Hotch/Elle writers in the fandom (as in at the moment, I think I'm it), but that's what I get for coming in late, I guess.

Haha, I hope you like angst, b/c it's pretty angsty. My fanfic LJ is sidewalkdr_fic, in case you're interested. /shameless self-promotion I'll probably x-post to the usual places.

Hope you all don't mind me jumping into the Elle parade, but I seriously agree with all of you. I don't understand why most people really don't like Elle anymore (or at all), because what some people hated about her - I liked about her. I still want Elle to reappear, at least once, if not only because of the amazing parallels between herself and Hotch at the moment. Plus it would be interesting to see how she and Prentiss react to each other...

Also, regarding the fanfiction game - I've got an Elle-centric virtual series up here: http://vbctv.com/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=478

The general premise in in the "About" section, but it takes place two years after she leaves behind the mothership.

Haha, I don't mind!

Thanks for that link! I'd never heard of that website before. I'll def check it out.

Yeah, I agree it would be cool to see her back. I think it would be interesting to see Elle/Hotch interaction at this stage. There have been some seriously big changes since they were last close. (One of my very favorite scenes in the whole series is Hotch washing the blood off Elle's wall in TFK2 so she doesn't have to come home to that.)

Thanks for the link! Bookmarked to read.

Added to my watch list, thanks! And I love angsty stories. I'm not much of a "fluffy fic" person.
