Bernie Worries About Eli Being A Cop.

if you are an active criminal minds blog please reblog this!! i’ve been finding so many blogs i’ve recognized from my dash and i realized i haven’t been following and i feel so bad???? but yes!! please rb if you’re nice and chill, im tryna find some more mutuals to scream into a void with :)

I have been able to purchase Season 16, on Apple TV, but, unfortunately, it is in French, even though the episode summaries are in English.

I am not really a big fan of the dubbing, but I can just about live with it.

So far, I don’t really know any of the characters except for Fin and Olivia, and we don’t get much info about them/their home lives, though stuff is implied through characters’ looks or reactions when talking to suspects or victims.

Amaro is a major hothead, but doesn’t seem to have any particular trigger. At least he’s working on controlling it, unlike Stabler. He reminds me a bit of Chester Lake, who was just kind of there sometimes and I didn’t miss him if he wasn’t!

Amanda seems like she’s very unassuming/submissive, but is as tough as old boots. In the ep with the young incel guy she was incredibly brave and tough, and I loved her description of good guys who are kind, gentle and hold doors open for ladies- was she thinking of Carisi? I like to think so.

I have gathered that she is from a small, gossipy city and doesn’t have a great relationship with her mother or men in general. It seems like something happened with her and Amaro, which I cannot see as being healthy or happy at all! 

Carisi I adore! He’s good at listening quietly, observing and taking everything in when he needs to, and heeds warnings/instructions well too. However, he can take initiative when he needs to. He’s always watching his colleagues and the victims, absorbing info and silently taking everything in. I love how he brings food to the team and is full of surprises ( goat’s cheese and sundried tomato rather than pepperoni, but that shows how considerate he is, as there may be vegetarians on the team, so he got something that they can eat too). Was not loving the moustache, so glad that disappeared pretty quickly. I also love that he knows celeb gossip/the latest trends/fashion/music which shows he listens to and spends time with his niece. 

Peter Gallagher in what I assume was Ed Tucker’s role makes Ed look like a declawed kitten. He’s very tough and demanding, but it seems to be pushing Olivia towards being Captain, which is a good thing.

Barba I find a bit cold and slightly shark like. He’s very much a straight to the point/direct kind of guy who is all business and nothing else. He also really doesn’t like to lose! Makes for a great lawyer, but not a very interesting character. He’s no Casey Novak, that’s for sure! 

I hope all the William Lewis stuff is done and dusted as I do not see myself coping well with that storyline at all! 

Great to see Liv being a mum to Noah, but it really makes me miss Stabler! If he’d been there, I’m sure he would have given her loads of Eli’s old clothes/toys/paraphernalia as well as advice. I’m sure he’d have volunteered to call Noah if he’s crying, but hopefully Carisi ( does anyone ever call him Sonny apart from his family?) can step up and be the Baby Whisperer ™ if Olivia needs that.

The episodes are quite interesting, nothing with a big twist or a super big name yet, but am looking forward to seeing what episode 6 and beyond have in store. 

The Gotch friendship in Route 66. Hotch’s tendency to suffer alone and Penelope’s insistence on helping everybody and how much she cares for him. We deserved more of him leaning on the team, but the way this dynamic could’ve been utilized so much more makes me angry.

Route 66 is a great episode and I love the softness of the bright bundle of joy that is Penelope Garcia dealing with her stubborn as a mule boss. I would kill for more demonstrations of the unique types of trust he was in each of them.

Even more, I'd love for some more of the soft way the two of them function to effortlessly together

@louisaland

Yes, the first part is my first name!

reblog this and put in the tags if the name you use on tumblr is also the name you use irl or not

1) 6 months or so ago

2) I was intrigued by themetaphorgirl’s awesome AU ( Patron Saint of Lost Causes), thought the characters and series premise sounded awesome so ordered Season 1!

3) Garcia, as it’s rare to have a curvy woman in a role where she’s not just the quirky best friend. She’s super smart, really empathetic and wears colourful outfits. I just really relate to her! Hotch is joint favourite though, love his dry humour, his loyalty to the team and the fact he’s an excellent father and boss!

4) Gideon, because he was rude, especially to Garcia when he had to stay behind in Season 1. 

5) Gideon. Everyone seemed to think he was this amazing profiler, but all I got from him was distant and rude!

6) Kate Callahan. I thought she was really good at her job, but still had a soft gentleness to her, and she had flaws ( clumsy). I felt like she fitted into the team well and liked her storylines. I feel that lots of people disliked her.

7) Season 1 does a great job setting up all the characters. At the moment,in my rewatch,  4 and 5 are excellent.  8) Season 7 was pretty weak, I can’t remember any good/standout episodes except the last two, and there was little to no character development to my liking.

9) Seasons 1-4 had incredible, nail-biting cliffhangers at the end, which I would not have been able yo vope with if I’d been watching as the show aired!

10) I like Penelope, Route 66, the Halloween episodes, Omnivore, 100, the Maeve episodes... Any episode with a favourite character focus ( Penelope going to the killer’s execution, Derek and Buford, the Riley Jenkins episodes...)or a serial killer arc!

11) Anything with spies/CIA nonsense. Also, any of the episodes where the viewer knows who the unsub is from the start-I like to try and work out who it is for myself!

12) The ones involving torture/disfigurement- the eye stealer squicked me out recently, in my rewatch! Also anything involving child abuse upsets me.

13) I love lots of friendships in the show, but don’t ship anyone romantically during the show. I have a big soft spot for Hotch and Garcia’s friendship, and could see them getting together post-Season 15.

14) I liked that there were no romantic relationships between the main team, just super strong friendships!  15) Garcia and Morgan never fail to make me laugh or cry, Hotch and Rossi are great friends, but I particularly like Hotch and Garcia’s friendship, as on paper, it’s really unlikely, but they get each other!

16) Gideon and Garcia did not get on in Season 1! They bonded a little over Reid’s Season 2 kidnapping, which was nice, but overall had a terrible relationship!

17) Foyet, as he’s truly terrifyingly brilliant and he has such an emotional impact on the team! The Fisher King is also a close second. Also the Zugzwang killer, eek! 

18) I felt empathy for the killers whose horrible childhoods we saw onscreen, which I know is most of them! The woman who turns women into dolls broke my heart too. 

19) Hotch’s arc with Foyet ( and before and after) is really interesting. He starts off as a new dad, then a divorcee, then a single father, as well as dealing with leading/being part of a team.

20) Rossi or Prentiss. They both start off as quite distant, not quite part of the team, but they end up integrating and being key players and developing strong relationships with the rest of the team.

21) Garcia, she’s so bright and colourful, but her outfits are well thought out/coordinated. Also like Hotch’s style, he always looks like he’s come off a 40′s movie set with his suit, starched shirt and tightly knotted tie! In Route 66, in his very fancy suit, he looks great too, but can also pull off casual wear!

22) Hotch, looks and personality wise! I go for tall, dark and brooding, but with a dry sense of humour and a hidden kind heart. I really fell for him when he smiled ( dimples, swoon!) and I was head-over-heels when he bought Garcia flowers and wrote her a note, to smooth over Gideon’s faux-pas with her.

23) The team is as its best when it’s Hotch, Rossi, Prentiss, JJ, Morgan, Reid and Garcia, I feel. I liked all the different personalities and thought they all gelled well, so no-one extra needed.

24) Morgan going was sad, then, when I knew Hotch was leaving, I had to stop watching, at the end of Season 11. Emily Prentiss and JJ were also missed when they were away.

25) If Hotch had got a proper goodbye, I might have continued watching!  26) Gideon, for being rude and disrespectful to his team-mates and the other officers/police forces he failed to introduce himself to!  27) Tara or Callahan would have been great, albeit v different unit chiefs!

28) I’d probably be quite a good secretary, keeping the team organised and providing them with hot beverages and food. Or I could look after any children they rescue until their parents/guardians show up.

29) Garcia, for her dress sense and empathy, physical demonstrations of affection. I just wish I had her confidence and technical skill!

30) All by myself! Wish someone was there with me for the jump scares or very violent crimes!

31) Today, currently rewatching and am on Season 5.

32) only watched until the end of Season 11, couldn’t bear the thought of continuing the show without Hotch.

33) More backstories ( Emily’s dad, her childhood etc, JJ and her sister and her dad, Hotch’s mom....) 

34) There were some contradictions about Hotch’s dad’s death that I would have liked to see explained

35) Yes!

36) themetaphorgirl, for her fantastic AUs ( the team as teens/kids at boarding school called Patron Saint of Lost Causes and one where a young Spencer is adopted by Alex Blake and her husband) and lots of fanfiction.net stories. Also SecondChild, Restless Child on AO3!

37) PSOLC, Spencer Blake, Second Child....

38) Yes.

39) I’ve been playing in themetaphorgirl’s sandbox, with a short fic based in the PSOLC universe. I have lots of ideas for that and also want to write Pendlope and Hotch getting together at some point after Season 15 ends!

Weather: my family, friends, reading, arts and crafts, food...

Dove: I express love through writing encouraging notes, buying little “I saw this and thought of you!”, themed gifts and just generally finding the perfect gift for a birthday. Also hugs, I give lots of hugs!

Friendship bracelet: being in the same room as my friend, just reading or watching TV/a film in comfortable silence, shopping or cinema trips, with a meal before/during/after. In-jokes that can be communicated with a look and then uncontrollable giggling

Love seat: a cosy place with a comfy lounge for reading/watching TV, an art room, an indoor pool, a kitchen with lots of appliances, two ovens and a view of the garden, plus a big table and lots of chairs so my friends and family can com3 to eat, a bedroom with a double bed, walk-in wardrobe and ensuite bathroom with shower and bath, lots of guest rooms for potential babies.

Record player: Break-up songs if I’m feeling sad/need a good cry, love songs if I’m happy ( though sometimes they make me cry!)

Stargaze: If dead celebs are allowed, Gregory Peck, Steve Mc Queen and Paul Newman- really handsome yet manly men. Modern/still alive George Clooney definitely still has it, and Jake Gyllenhall is very easy on the eye!  Planter: Black thumb here!  Linen: Purely theoretical, but I would like to be friends with someone before getting romantically involved.

Hot cocoa: my eye for colour ( makes m3 good at picking out outfits for myself/others), my creativity and ability to be by myself perfectly contentedly!  Valentine: Again, theoretical, but a little bit is cute ( hand-holding, little kisses)

Succulent: brother’s wedding, giving the kids I nanny their birthday presents and cards, the cinemas and restaurants re-opening!

Bath bomb: doing something creative, watching a film ( for a good healing cry or to make me laugh), yummy snacks and meals, looking for perfect themed presents for people either online or in shops...

Road trip: university. It was hard being so far away from my family while all my coursemates were going home for weekends/Reading week.

Brown sugar: children running up for hugs in the creche where I work, rewatching a favourite TV show, eating yummy good and finding some great presents for a friend’s daughter!

Pearls: yes! Now all I need is a partner!

Seaside: first date would be a drink at a coffee shop and a trip to a bookstore, established couple date would be a fancy dinner out or a home-cooked meal, followed by a film ( either at home or at the cinema) 

Luna Moth: city with lots of green spaces and close proximity to beach  and/or forest.

Velvet: practical when I am working ( hoodies, jeans/tracksuit bottoms, trainers) but pretty dresses with cardigans and flats plus cute accessories ( scarves, jewellery, hair clips and bags) when I am seeing friends or going to events!

Cupcake: not with anyone else, but definitely with myself!

Romcom: A mixture of both tragedy and comedy!

Well into Season 3 of Downton Abbey! Mary and Edith have stopped being witches with b’s to eachother. Love Matthew looking out for Tom and saying they have to stick together against their fiery wives was very sweet. I know how it all ends with Edith and Anthony Strallan, which sucks, but am waiting impatiently for Mary and Matthew’s wedding!
