I really don't understand Hotch/Reid. They have a lot of moments of working together, and, of course, there's their hug at the end of "Revelations," but everything between them that I've seen used as evidence of a shippy connection just seems more like Hotch's tendency towards being parental with the team coming out in full force with Reid, who is the youngest, and the most danger-prone, and needs the most guidance in coping with the difficult situations that the team encounters.

I am, however, also very, very biased because I like Reid best with Morgan or Prentiss (or both, or Garcia, or Kevin, or Garcia and Kevin, or Elle, or Tobias or Adam/Amanda or maybe Nathan Harris if they're done well… or, really, with anyone but Gideon [since theirs is more a father/son relationship to me], JJ [it's kind of cute, in an unreturned crush way, for a bit… but past the early first season, they're obviously more brother/sister], or Hotch), and I like Hotch best with Haley or Rossi.

I wish there were more femmeslash with Garcia in it, to be honest; I love her and Kevin, but I get more Garcia/Emily vibes than I do Emily/JJ ones (though I do get those, too), and… Kevin/Garcia/Emily, anyone? Garcia and Kevin are a happier and more stable couple than we get anywhere else (except, you could argue, Hotch/Haley and Gideon/Sarah… but look how those both ended up; Garcia and Kevin have their natural ups and downs, but they get the happy ending that Hotch/Haley and Gideon/Sarah didn't get), and I could see them trusting each other and being open to experimentation enough to have a threesome with a trusted friend… like Emily.
