*stefan from snl voice* this episode has everything! his and her's matching brown sweaters, standing so close to one another for absolutely no reason, saying your colleagues first name even though you've always called her by her last name after (presumably) sharing a room together

I love the beginning of s5 ep21 exit wounds (the girls shopping, not the lady getting murdered in alaska lol) the ladies chatting gossiping the first mention of emily getting a cat!! Though i hate JJ and emily talking about shitty british man from suspect behaviour, i love a good gab session. Also Rossi in the tux and morgan teasing him!! Fairy godmother penelope!! I love them. I also love this episode for penny

MORCIA | 5.21 “EXIT WOUNDS”

Hotchreid Imaginations behind CM 5x21

One of my favorite episodes. Hotch looks gorgeous in his casual clothes. What impresses me most is Hotch and Reid coming to the unsub's home questioning his family. Their tone and aura are soooo identical which coincidentally fits the theory that couples will get more alike and harmonious after having sex. Can't help thinking of an out-of-office BAU case that fits The snowstorm villa model. Facing a bunch of unsolved mysteries in a small village, the BAU team is asked to investigate into local serial murders. No signals and isolated from the urban areas, the team has to stay in the local inn or cabin in woods or something. It doesn't necessarily have to be only 4 rooms available. When night falls everything becomes unpredictable and crimes begin. Everyone is well settled in their room the first night, however all bothered by the case and the terrifying atmosphere somehow disturbs their mood. The one blank page in the profile theory makes Dr Reid upset, anxiously biting his nails at the same time his mind highly operating and functioning. Unit chief Aaron Hotchner tries to link the clues and pictures of crime scenes are spread out on his neat bed. Neither has a slightest feeling of being sleepy. At some specific moment one of them knocks on the other's door. The next morning no new victims but something has changed. One room was available last night and one was within two FBI agents. Dr Reid is specially tensed, frequently touching his hair and scratching his chin. Seems like everyone is having butterflies in their stomach. Have they find out something unusual? After all, his colleagues are some most elite observers in America. Is Hotch suggesting something that happened last night when he gives ambiguous eye contacts and vague glances time to time? Hundreds of thoughts are getting Reid eaten. He carefully avoid straight body touches with Hotch in case he would show nervousness(which is quite deliberate to his co-workers.)

 Going by @blackbird-brewster‘s reblog in a previous post I made and they explained it well. It’s sadly unsurprising how the CM Writers still can’t treat it’s female characters well and even the fact that they outnumber the men in Evolution doesn’t stop them from being given bad storylines:

Emily: Within five episodes, we never see her personal life outside the BAU. Most of her screentime is shared with her being treated poorly by Bailey. While she’s able to stand up to him, that still doesn’t erase the fact that Bailey still treated her terribly and looked down on her and the BAU

Garcia: Started off the show thriving in her new happy place, away from the BAU. The moment she rejoins the BAU, she’s back to being at her lowest point, and ends up spending most of her screentime with Tyler Green.

JJ: Most of her personal life is shared with her husband Will. The Willifer moments are nice, except the writers thought it’d be a good idea to give Will a diagnosis. Even if it was a false alarm at the end, it doesn’t ignore the fact they attempt to pull this bullshit for the sake of “angst”

Tara: Is the only one of the female leads where her storyline is not revolved by a man, yet she has very little screentime with her girlfriend Rebecca. They only had like 2-3 moments together and Rebecca is not seen after that. We never got to see them share sweet moments in Tara’s apartment especially with the revelation that Tara wants Rebecca to move in with her. And don’t get me started on what Messer said about the couple going through some challenges in the remainder of this season

  The worst thing about this is that we have little to few interactions of the women all together, in meaningful moments. What happened to all the lady bonding in the previous seasons? It seems like the writers are afraid to let them interact unless it has to do with whatever case they’re working on and or a man (Rossi, Tyler, Bailey) is involved

Like we don’t want to see these female characters get paired up with toxic men, reduced to disposable trauma bags and being an emotional crutch to the male characters (*cough*Rossi*cough*)

like gives us more lady friendship moments

we want Emily comforting Garcia when she’s feeling down over her return to the BAU

we want to see Garcia, JJ and Tara defend Emily when Bailey keeps putting her down

we want to see the ladies comfort JJ as she recovers at the hospital after she and Luke survived the trap left by Elias

we want JJ and Tara teaming up and teasing Luke, whether it’s about his date with Garcia or just teasing him in general. We also want to see them and Emily talk to Garcia about why she and Luke didn’t continue staying together after one date

we want more of JJ and Garcia bonding. After all, JJ said Garcia was like a sister to her and they have been on the show since s1

maybe the ladies all attempt to give Emily some dating advice (a call back to 5x21), much to Emily’s dismay

we want the ladies having ladies’ night, and the BAU ladies inviting Rebecca

just more of the ladies interacting and bonding in general. There’s four of them and if the writers were smart, they would’ve given them more opportunities to shine. I’m sure Paget, AJ, Kirsten and Aisha are all capable of carrying the show moreso than Joe

this was supposed to be an ensemble show, not “The Rossi & Others show”

i need to know your opinion on hotchniss sharing that brown quarter zip in the alaska episode. *chin-hands*

okay, so if you follow this blog at all, you know i'm bat shit crazy insane and delusional right? right, okay

but here's the thing....i want to say they share a jacket in this episode but its not the same jacket. it doesnt even really look the same. i hate bursting the delusional hotchniss bubble that some of us bounce around in but.....its 2 totally different jackets 😔

emily's jacket has a high collar, almost like a turtle neck, and it zips all the way down, its also not even really brown, but more of a deep reddish/purple. hotch's jacket doesnt have a high collar, and doesnt zip all the way down, and its dark brown

hotch is also seen wearing a *black* one, with a high collar, but it's def not the same one emily has bc like i said, hers is a totally diff color (and both of his dont zip all the way down like emily's)

you can also see it in this tweet: not the same jacket :(
