Slash pairings?

When you read Criminal Minds slash, what are your preferred pairings, and why? Hotch/Reid, Morgan/Reid, JJ/Prentiss...what do you gravitate toward?

I love Reid/Prentis and/or Hotch/Prentis.
I'm not a slasher, but threesomes are welcome.

Hotch/Reid, definitely. They seem to have the most slashy scenes together. They are both serious, and they seem to understand each other quite well. Plus, honestly, what could be sexier?

True, Morgan and Reid also seem to understand each other well. But I think their relationship seems more brotherly than romantic.

And Gideon and Reid understood each other well, but I think that relationship seemed more paternal than anything else.

Rossi is out of the question, because I don't really care for his character.

As for why all my slash considerations involve Reid, it's simply because he's my favorite CM character.

Rossi/Reid. However, I'll take Morgan/Reid and JJ/Prentiss.

My OTP, however, is Hotch/Prentiss. I also like Hotch/Garcia, Morgan/Garcia, and Rossi/Prentiss. I know you didn't ask for het, but this is one of a handful of pairings where the female characters are interesting enough to ship and where canon hasn't already screwed up the pairing beyond all reason.

Sadly, once you go Hotch/Reid, you can't really go anywhere else. At least for me, but I'm a monogamous shipper in other fandoms as well.
