Cadybear's MCs: The Ultimate Crash Course Masterlist (NOTE: List is subject to frequent updates)
REPOSTING BECAUSE I ACCIDENTALLY DELETED THE OLD ONE WHEN I WAS MEANING TO EDIT IT!!!!
Inspired by the MC Masterlists made by @aria-ashryver and @rosesnink. This list will include a brief rundown of each of my MCs, listed in alphabetical order by book/series. A link to each MC's profile will be provided if said profile exists. Or, at the very least, a link to an image of the MC's sprite will be provided.
Notes:
Some books will have multiple MCs that I make for them. And some books won't have any MCs. And some MCs will be incomplete WIPs.
MCs deemed as more "complete" or "official" characters– meaning, I have a committed appearance and enough details for them– will have their titles in the "Quote" text font.
MCs where the link only shows a sprite image will be marked with 🖼️
MCs where the link is to a brief crash course profile will be marked with 📄
MCs where the link is to a very detailed and extensive profile will be maked with 📕
For a masterlist more focused on the specific couples I have, see here.

Endgame LI Headcanon: Ignore what the canon says. She and Cole break up by the end of the book.
Additional Notes: This book is ranked in fourth place on my permanent choices shitlist. I've made this MC for the sole purpose of having a headcanon where the baby gets rescued from these awful people and then adopted by Evie and Aiden (baby's name is still pending). However, I do have some ideas for what could have been for this book, so I might end up making a MC for an AU based around those ideas. We'll see.

The MCs in this book are not customizable in any way.
A Courtesan of Rome

Endgame LI Headcanon: Kieran
Additional Notes: [Pending]
The Deadliest Game
This books seems like such a breath of fresh air. But I'm also hesitant to play the stories that have blatant use of AI generated content. Seriously, the cover is just grotesque.
Desire and Decorum
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book.
Dirty Little Secrets: Dick Ryder 📄
Book Playthrough Status: Currently in progress
Birthday: June 9, 1993 (approximately 30 in the story's timeline)
Gender: Genderqueer Cis Man (he/him)
Ethnicity: Korean (East Asian sprite)
Sexuality: Straight
In-Game LI Pursued: Peg King (Hispanic Charlotte King)
Endgame LI Headcanon: Marries Peg King and becomes the proud (step)-father to Yvette. Thereby making him a DILF.
Additional Notes: His former name is "Gabriel Cho". He's trained in acting and an aspiring pornstar. Once he did get a job at a porn studio, but it quickly went to shit. Let's just say, they didn't respect his sexual boundaries/preferences. After getting the fuck outta dodge, he took on the name "Dick Ryder" in order to own his sexuality. "Peg King" on the other hand is her original name tho (or is it...).
Distant Shores
I wanted to like this one. Maybe I'll like it more when I give it a replay.
The Duchess Affair
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book.
The Elementalists: [Name Pending]

Book Playthrough Status: I've played the series once, but not quite with this official MC
Birthday: [pending]
Gender: Cis Woman (she/her)
Ethnicity: [Pending]
Sexuality: wlm
In-Game LI Pursued: I might have her romance Jake McKenzie for a bit
Endgame LI Headcanon: I think she'd like Jake McKenzie, but not enough for a committed romance. Her true love is Raj Bhandarkar, who absolutely should be a LI. But it won't last because I'm probably gonna choose the Vaanu ending for her.
Additional Notes: [Pending]
Endless Summer: BJ Kingsley
Book Playthrough Status: I've played the series once, but not quite with this official MC
Birthday: [pending]
Gender: Cis Man (she/her)
Ethnicity: [Pending]
Sexuality: mlw
In-Game LI Pursued: Estela Montoya
Endgame LI Headcanon: He becomes handfasted with Estela, and they likely stay together because he chooses either the Endless or the Rourke ending.
Additional Notes: [Pending]
Filthy Rich
This book is clearly just Untameable: Billionaire Edition. And I'm sure I've already made it very clear how much I hate Untameable. Also it almost certainly has an AI-generated cover.
First Comes Love
This book is ranked in second place on my permanent choices shitlist. But I might also wanna make a MC for the sole purpose of making a headcanon where she and Blake break up MC is disowned by all her friends for being a FemCeL while Rebecca is welcomed into the friends group. We'll see.
Foreign Affairs
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book.

Birthday: Born in 1998 (approximately 18 at the start of the story)
Gender: GNC Cis Woman (she/her)

Sexuality: Bi
In-Game LI Pursued: [Pending]
Endgame LI Headcanon: [Pending]
Additional Notes: [Pending]
Getaway Girls
I'm looking forward to playing this one and making the MC for it. But I don't have a lot of ideas. So I'm gonna play the book first and then come up with the MC as I go along.
The Ghost of Us
I wanna make an official MC of this book solely so I can make Ghost (1990) references. But I can't decide whether to base her off of Molly Jensen or Oda Mae Brown. I decided to mix up the names and consider "Molly Brown" and "Oda Mae Jensen" as my options, and the masses seem to favor the latter.
Guarded
This book looks like it's just Witness and RCD made a baby. I might play it, but I have zero interest in making a MC for it. Or maybe I'll make a male MC. We'll see.
Guinevere
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book. Probably gonna have male Arthur and female Lancelot tho.
The Haunting of Braidwood Manor: [Name Pending]
Book Playthrough Status: I've played this about 4 times, but none of which have this official MC
Birthday: [Pending]

Sexuality: Bi
In-Game LI Pursued: Eleanor Waverly (but I might have her flirt with Victor a bit too)
Endgame LI Headcanon: Eleanor Waverly
Additional Notes: [Pending]
Hearts on Fire
This book's actual premise was such a disappointment. Of fucking course we have to be a newbie firefighter and of fucking course the LI is our boss and of fucking course the LI saves the MC. I might still play a mlw route though. Then again, those bomber jackets might have been AI generated.

Birthday: July 27, 1994 (approximately 25 during the story's timeline)
Gender: GNC Cis Woman
Ethnicity: Indian (Brown/Hispanic Sprite)

High School Story Prime Mobile Game: Jordan Price

Ethnicity: Lebanese (Caucasian sprite)

Home for the Holidays
I liked this book, but I don't have a lot of ideas for my MC's character. I might return to this after a replay.
Hot Couture
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book.
Hot Shot
100% sure that cover is AI generated. Also I have a feeling that the "I don't want to play books that use AI generated content" is gonna bite me in the ass one way or another.
Immortal Desires: Sam [Last Name Pending]
Book Playthrough Status: I've played the book once, but I have yet to do an official playthrough for it
Birthday: [Pending]
Gender: Cis Male (he/him)
Ethnicity: [Pending]
Sexuality: This is a vampire story in Choices. What do you think his sexuality is?
In-Game LI Pursued: Gabriela Adalhard (Native American version) and Cassie Harlow (Black version)
Endgame LI Headcanon: He and Gabe and Cas have a three-way relationship with each other
Additional Notes: Naming the MC "Sam" in the book with "Desire" in the title is pure coincidence, I assure you. I just really like the name Sam.
It Lives in the Woods: Jo Hunter 📄
Book Playthrough Status: Completed, but a couple of other playthroughs are pending
Birthday: April 22, 1999 (18 during the ILITW timeline, approximately 21-22 during the ILB and ILW timelines)
Gender: GNC Cis Woman (she/hers)
Ethnicity: Chinese (East Asian sprite)
Sexuality: Straight
In-Game LI Pursued: Lucas Thomas, but I plan to do a playthrough where she romances Andy Kang as well. In the Lucas route, she does flirt with Andy and Connor Green as well.
Endgame LI Headcanon: Marries Lucas Thomas, but I might eventually change it into a three-way relationship that includes Andy Kang
Additional Notes: She and all of her friends survive Redfield/Jane's game. She chooses to let Noah become the monster.
It Lives Beneath: Harper Addison Vance-Fisher 📄
Book Playthrough Status: Completed
Birthday: July 12, 1998 (approximately 19 during the ILITW timeline, 21-22 during the ILB timeline, and 22 during the ILW timeline)

Endgame LI Headcanon: She and Tom Sato eventually move in together and become the proud parents of the giant teddy bear named Boo-Boo that Harper won for Tom

It Lives Within Fanproject: Cedric Zhao 📄*
*(Has a brief crash-course profile, but it's more of a placeholder that might need revising later)

Birthday: October 4 (unsure about the year and age, I'll have to review the ILW timeline later)
Gender: GNC Cis Man (he/him)
Ethnicity: Chinese (East Asian sprite)
Sexuality: Heteroflexible and Polyamorous
In-Game LI Pursued: Jocelyn Wu, but I plan to do a playthrough where he romances Amalia de Leon
Endgame LI Headcanon: [Pending]
Additional Notes: He takes on a mostly genuine personality with a side of sarcasm. He mainly follows the Blood route, having some interest in learning the source of his power, but ultimately wanting to live his normal life. In my first playthrough, he got stabbed by Mattyass and died, but I hope to get a better outcome for him in a replay.
Kindred
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book.
Kiss of Death
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book.

Book Playthrough Status: I've played the series once, but not with this official MC
Birthday: [Pending]

In-Game LI Pursued: She likes both Gabe Ricci (East Asian version) and Aislinn Tanaka, and Joaquin Morales
Endgame LI Headcanon: [Pending]
Additional Notes: [Pending]
LoveHacks
I liked this story, but I wasn't quite invested in it enough to make a MC for it. Maybe when I give it a replay, I'll make a MC for it.
Most Wanted
The MCs in this book are not customizable in any way.
Mother of the Year
I liked this story a lot, but I'm currently still way too indecisive about the names and appearance I want for the MC and her daughter.
Ms. Match
I did not care enough for this book to make an official MC for it. Though I will say, the highlight of this story was that I named my MC "Perfect Match" for the sole purpose of eventually hearing someone say the title of the movie in the movie. Sure enough, I got that wish fulfilled around Ch 11-12.
Murder at Homecoming: Peggy Stone
Book Playthrough Status: Completed, but needs a more focused replay
Birthday: September 14, 2005 (approximately 17 during the story's timeline)
Gender: GNC Cis Woman (she/her)
Ethnicity: Black/African-American
Sexuality: Straight
In-Game LI Pursued: Tyler Woods (white version)
Endgame LI Headcanon: She marries Tyler Woods years later
Additional Notes: I might change "Valentine" to a different name in my headcanons.
My Two First Loves
This book is... well, it's not quite on my Choices shitlist, but it still annoyed me enough that I do not want to make a MC for it. Or maybe I might, for the sole purpose of pairing her off with Ava, pretending Mason and Noah get together as endgame, and then Ava breaks up with her. We'll see.
The Nanny Affair: Eh IDC
Book Playthrough Status: Completed, but it might be fun to do one more playthrough
Birthday: February 2, 1991 (approximately 29-30 during the story's timeline)
Gender: Cis Woman (she/her)
Ethnicity: Still pending (but uses the brown/Hispanic sprite)
Sexuality: wlm
In-Game LI Pursued: Samuel Dalton (white version)
Endgame LI Headcanon: [Pending]
Additional Notes: Yeah this is a very unserious MC creation. TNA is more of a guilty pleasure "fun bad" kind of series for me. But it also has a weird special place in my heart because Book 1 is the second ever Choices book I started and the first ever Choices book I completed.
Nightbound
This book was alright, but I wasn't quite invested enough in it to make a MC for it. Maybe that will change if and when I replay it. We'll see.
Open Heart
Update 06/26/2024: I'm currently playing the series, having finished Book 1 recently (I have played the first book years back, but it's been a long time since). I indeed am having way too much fun naming my MC "Martha Jones" to make an actual MC. But I did like Book 1, so maybe after I finish my playthrough, I'll make an actual official MC for it. She'll be a Bryce and Raf romancer.
Passport to Romance
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book.
Perfect Match
I like this series a lot, and I want to have one female MC and one male MC for it. However, I'm short on ideas. I'll flesh out their profiles more after I do their playthroughs.
The Phantom Agent: Jane Bond
Book Playthrough Status: Completed, but needs a replay
Birthday: [Pending]
Gender: GNC Cis Woman (she/her)
Ethnicity: [Pending]
Sexuality: Straight
In-Game LI Pursued: Agent Callum "Booty Galore" Grey (Indian version), but she also likes Rowan Salazar (male version), and she really likes the hookup options Nurse Lou Bellrose and Alexis Reid (both male)
Endgame LI Headcanon: I want to say all four of the aforementioned LIs/hookups, but unfortunately, Rowan and Alexis die in the story. I might rewrite that.
Additional Notes: I have a moral obligation to make this MC as James Bond as possible, the story is literally a PB take on James Bond.
Platinum
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book.
Plus One
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book.
The Princess Swap
I liked this book, but it doesn't really have much going for it for one to make their own MCs from. But I might decide otherwise after a replay.
Queen B
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book.
Red Carpet Diaries
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book.
Ride or Die: Adelaide "Addi" Zhou
Book Playthrough Status: Completed, but I might do a replay or two
Birthday: Pending, but it's sometime in the year 2001, somewhere between March and May (she's 18 during the story's timeline)
Gender: GNC Cis Woman (she/her)
Ethnicity: Is at least half-Chinese (East Asian sprite)
Sexuality: wlm
In-Game LI Pursued: Colt Kaneko
Endgame LI Headcanon: Her relationship with Colt is only a brief fling. What becomes of her love life after that is still pending.
Additional Notes: She became salutatorian in my playthrough. But I might try to see if I can get any different outcomes for her.
Rising Tides
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book.
Roommates With Benefits: Atticus St. James
Book Playthrough Status: Completed, but not with this specific MC
Birthday: October 28, 2003 (approximately 19-20 during the story's timeline)
Gender: Genderqueer Cis man (he/him)
Ethnicity: European (Caucasian/White sprite)
Sexuality: mlw
In-Game LI Pursued: Drew Young (White Female)
Endgame LI Headcanon: Drew Young
Additional Notes: Honestly I found this book rather mid. But I just couldn't resist the chance to un-genderlock it myself because this has no reason to be genderlocked.
Rivals With Benefits
I'm tempted to play this one and even make an official MC for it, if only for the purpose of hearing MC constantly refer to m!LI as "Omega". But male Riley's CG clearly uses AI. Where are his nipples??????
The Royal Masquerade
I have yet to play this. I'll make a MC for it based on how much I like the book.
The Royal Romance: Lew [Last Name Pending]
Book Playthrough Status: Currently in progress and on indefinite hiatus
Birthday: February 2, 1991 (approximately 26 at the start of the story)
Gender: GNC Cis Woman
Ethnicity: Indian (South Asian sprite)
Sexuality: Straight
In-Game LI Pursued: Liam Rys (Asian version)
Endgame LI Headcanon: Liam Rys
Additional Notes: Her original last name was "Asshunter", just for funsies. But I plan to change it because unlike TNA, this is likely to be a series that I will genuinely care about (up until TRH anyways)
Rules of Engagement

Thanks for tagging me, @imwritesometimes ❤️
Are you named after anyone? Nope.
When was the last time you cried? Late at night, in bed, a couple of weeks ago, I think. I was just going through a bout of the Big Sad. It happens to the best of us.
Do you have kids? No.
Do you use sarcasm a lot? No. (And that’s not me being sarcastic, btw, lol.)
What’s the first thing you notice about people? I don’t know. Their attitude, I guess? I definitely notice if they’re rude or well-mannered.
What’s your eye colour? Green.
Scary movies or happy endings? Happy endings.
Any special talents? None that I can think of right now.
What are your hobbies? I do very little in my spare time besides reading, watching tv/movies, listening to music and (very) occasionally writing.

(Yeah, my family let me watch basically anything I wanted as a kid. But, hey, I turned out all right!)
Also, fun fact, the actors playing Dempsey and Makepeace fell in love in real life, got married, had a son together and are still together to this day! So I guess the chemistry was real. (Really hope I haven’t just jinxed them!)
Three ships? Just off the top of my head I’m going to say Marvey, Madney and, just to keep with the ‘M’ motif (and as a little nod to @imwritesometimes !), Marchly.

Our heroes: Are the island of misfit toys.
What important things did we learn about:
Callen: Looking for Hetty through Zasha and now Harris Keane.
Sam: Tending to his father with Kam.
Kensi: Admits a case about an abandoned baby is unfair in their situation.
Deeks: Finds the missing and dying mother, figures out when the attack happened.
Fatima: Helping Callen find Hetty.
Rountree: Back after some time away.
Kilbride: Worried about Callen.
What not so important things did we learn about:
Callen: Bodyslamming the suspect.
Sam: Absent.
Kensi: World’s worst storyteller.
Deeks: More Alice in Chains than “Agnes of God”.
Fatima: Had her best scene in the missing extended scene.
Rountree: Walks into a mostly empty office.
Kilbride: You can call him Admiral.
Where in the world is Henrietta Lange? Hopefully not Syria.
Who's down with OTP: Kensi and Deeks deal with the elephant in the room – they’re on the ship investigating the discovery of the child. All is well with Callen and Anna until they learn they’ve got company.
Who's down with BrOTP: Not a lot of BrOTP opportunities here – Sam’s away, Rountree has a short few scenes with Callen. The Admiral and Nate are colleagues, not buddies.
Fashion review: Callen wears a dark blue sweater in the boat shed. In the office, a blue and white button down shirt. No Sam today. Kensi is in an oatmeal colored henley with a black NCIS windbreaker. Off-white sweater for Deeks under the black NCIS windbreaker. Fatima is wearing an oversized (really oversized) jacket over a grey turtleneck. Rountree has on a dark green jacket with a black tee-shirt. Charcoal grey suit for the Admiral with a pale blue dress shirt and a dark blue tie with little white diamonds.
Music: No music today.
Any notable cut scene: In an extended scene, after Kensi and Deeks meet Agent Morgan and Deeks explains he’s special even if he isn’t a Special Agent, Kensi and Deeks share a little couples talk to the surprise of Morgan. They explain they’re married.
Also extended is the Fatima-Admiral scene in Ops. When he tells her she’s going for a walk, that impresses Fatima. The Admiral says they were quite common before the invention of the electric scooter. Fatima works the joke, saying she heard walks were quite common back in the day - “Sounds dreadful.” The Admiral admires Fatima’s sense of humor but warns her not to make it a habit. He has enough jokers to deal with.
At the end of the day, Fatima walks into the Admiral’s office with a ton of paperwork he’s hoping isn’t for him. It is. The Admiral asks if Fatima knows of any FOIA requests filed by Callen. She does not. The Admiral will just ask Callen instead. With Callen and Rountree still processing the suspect and Kensi and Deeks making their way back from the Carrier, she’d like to go home. As she leaves, Nate arrives, noting the office really is like a fishbowl.
Quote: Admiral: “I'm not worried about Sam. Kensi, either, for that matter. Deeks, on the other hand's, a basket case, but I don't need you to tell me that. No, it's Callen that I'm worried about.”
Honorable mention:
Nate: “Admiral Kilbride?”
Admiral: “Dr. Getz.”
Nate: “Please, you can call me Nate.”
Admiral: “Nate. You can still call me Admiral.”
Perhaps two of the most Admiral Kilbride interactions ever.
Anything else: A Navy jet is flying off an aircraft carrier at night. The Roving Watch and Security Watch is checking the ship. One of the sailors walking the watch sees an open hatch to a storage area. He finds blood on the floor. Calling out for whoever is injured, nobody replies. The sailor calls in the open hatch and some blood he found. Under a pile of clothing, he finds a baby.
In the boatshed, ZNN is covering an apparent car-bombing that killed several people in Syria. Callen is on the phone to someone wanting an update on the bombing as soon as possible. He isn’t worried about the time of the call. Anna arrives with some food. Callen is worried that Hetty is in Syria.
In Syria, the locals are digging people out of the rubble and tending to the injured and dead. A woman walks among the workers – it is Zasha. She’s calling Callen with the news that Hetty is not there. Hetty had a meeting with al-Kalmira, the target of the bombing. Zasha checked the wounded in the hospital and all the dead – Hetty’s not among them. Callen wouldn’t be surprised if Hetty called in the military strike against al-Kalmira. He’s al Qaeda. Zasha thinks it is the last meeting Hetty will have in Syria since all her contacts were “blown to hell” in the bombing. Callen thinks if Hetty got out, so did al-Kalmira. When Callen tells Zasha to call him when she finds out where Hetty is, Zasha pushes back – what if she doesn’t call. “You will,” Callen tells her in a rather ominous tone. A man starts staring at Zasha. She ends the call and takes off.
Rountree arrives to an empty office – “and then there was one.” Fatima comes down from Ops welcoming Rountree back. He asks where everyone is. Callen is working a case, Sam’s dad had a fall so Sam and Kam are dealing with that, Kensi and Deeks are on their way to the USS Allegiance, doing exercises off the coast, working a case about a “rather unusual incident” on the carrier. Rountree guesses Russian dolphins. Fatima tells him about the baby.
Landing on the carrier, Kensi and Deeks are met by Special Agent Afloat Denise Morgan. Kensi explains that Deeks is an investigator, not a Special Agent but Deeks says he’s special nonetheless. Moving a little deeper into the carrier, Deeks brings up the “stork visit”. Morgan is keeping things quiet at the skipper’s request. The baby was flown to San Diego and is in the NIC Unit because the baby was premature but appears healthy. The ship doctor estimates the baby was conceived on-board, so the father is a crew member. There are over 400 women on the Allegiance and every single one of them is of childbearing age. Morgan asks if either Kensi or Deeks have children. They don’t – “not yet.”
Asking about the baby, Kensi and Deeks learn she’s a girl. Morgan’s big concern is that clock is ticking on finding the child’s mother. Bringing Kensi and Deeks to the ship’s doctor, the doctor explains that no placenta was found. It could have been disposed in a trash bin or thrown overboard. But if the placenta was retained, the mother could die of sepsis. Kensi asks if anyone is in sickbay with symptoms that would match sepsis. The doctor wished someone was in sickbay – she could treat the mother. Morgan matched the blood from the storage unit where the baby was found with the crew. The mother is A+, which is about 34% of the population or 165 sailors on the carrier. All 165 have been accounted for.
Kensi asks where was the baby found. Morgan says a cargo hold in a secluded part of the ship. The mother probably had the baby there because she wouldn’t be seen or heard delivering the child. The umbilical cord as cut cleanly and tied off with a standard issue bootlace. The baby was wrapped in coveralls and a tee-shirt belonging to a sailor who swears he had nothing to do with all this.
Deeks asks why there wasn’t a ship-wide announcement about the baby. The doctor made that call with the CO. The mother is obviously distraught, unable to share her condition with anyone. The doctor fears the announcement would cause her to panic, possibly hurt herself or “God forbid, jump overboard.” The new mom only has a few hours before either infection sets in or she bleeds out.
Fatima is on the phone with Callen, who is still at the boatshed with Anna sleeping on the couch. He wants to know about the bombing. All Fatima has is that it was an Air Force operation and the Air Force is not sharing with NCIS. She suggests bringing Kilbride into this but Callen says no. He thinks someone else would have intel – maybe Sidney Jones at Homeland or Sabatino. Callen would also like anything NCIS has on al-Kalmira before ending the call. Anna wakes up and asks if anything has changed. It hasn’t. Anna is worried that Callen hasn’t slept. She recommends some fresh air and some real coffee since the boatshed coffee “sucks.”
In the Allegiance interrogation room, Kensi and Deeks are questioning Petty Officer Hill, who found the baby. The hatch being opened caught his eye. He thought the prior person on Roving Watch accidentally left it opened but he saw the blood the floor and knew something happened. Kensi asks what was in the storage area. It is line and cables that get warn out while at sea. He did not hear any from the hold until he pulled the coveralls off the baby and shined his flashlight on her. Then he heard a lot of crying. Deeks asks what is the word around the ship about the incident. Hill only told his commanding officer and the master at arms. He was told to keep quiet and he did.
Next up is Officer Forest, whose coveralls were found with the baby. He has no idea how they got there but he hopes they kept “him” warm. When Kensi tells Forest “him” is a girl, Forest seems genuinely pleased. Deeks wonders if Forest heard about a pregnant crewmember. He did not and was told not to talk about what was going on with anyone. And he has not. Forest has a girlfriend in Nebraska – he’s going to get engaged on his next leave.
Kensi and Deeks ask how the coveralls wound up with the baby. Forest says they could have been taken from his rack. Asked if he didn’t notice they were missing from his weekly laundry, Forest explains that there are 5,000 sailors on the Allegiance. The laundry bags area often filled with other people’s belongings. He regularly gets bras and panties.
As the Admiral walks into the Ops, Fatima clears the screen. She was speaking to a lieutenant but ends the call. The Admiral gets a sitrep on the baby – who is doing fine. Asking for Callen, the Admiral is told he’s working a case. “Color me lucky, the Admiral replies. Fatima offers to call in him but Kilbride does not want to interrupt Callen’s Reiki session, “or whatever it is he’s really up to.” The Admiral wants Fatima to text him when Callen arrives.
Walking on the beach with some coffee, Anna tells Callen that when she’s can smell the ocean, she always feels safe. She asks Callen what makes him feel safe, he says she does. Anna likes the answers but knows she’s lying. Callen wants to know about the Institute of Noble Maidens, how Anna’s mother enrolled Anna to anger Arkady, how Arkady tried to get her out but Anna refused. She admits to all of it – she felt badly turning Arkady away but she liked the place. She got to ride horses, shoot guns, crash cars – “It was fun.” She chose to stay. She thought it was cruel but she not only survived but thrived.
Confused, Callen tells Anna that Arkady would have taken care of her. Anna thinks Arkady’s way of taking care of her would have been an all-girls school on a private island that shoots boys on sight. Callen is lucky Arkady likes him. Anna asks if Callen is thinking about this because of Hetty. Is he worried that she’s in trouble or is he worried that if she doesn’t survive her trouble, he’ll never know about his past. “Probably both.” Anna doesn’t know about Callen’s past but Hetty loves him a like a son. Callen brings up a mother who manipulates her son. Anna replies that all mothers manipulate their children – that how they get the children to do things. Asked if he thinks about where he would be with Hetty, Callen thinks Florida or Alaska, maybe a fireman in Idaho. Anna suggests a farmer and Callen could see that. Callen could too – with a dog and kids. She asks him if that’s what he wants. He isn’t sure. “Maybe you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be.”
The Commanding Officer gets on the PA explaining a blood shortage. All female crew members with A-positive blood must report to sickbay immediately, all male crew members will do the same tomorrow. This is a way to narrow down the field. Kensi is going to talk to the ship’s chaplain. A top gun pilot walks by, checking Kensi out and she does the same. Kensi admits top gun pilots are badasses but so is Deeks. Deeks isn’t biting – he’s more interested in the elephant in the room. They are desperate to have a child and they are investigating a mother who abandoned hers. Kensi considers it all unfair. Deeks goes back to top gun pilots – she really thinks they are badasses? Kensi likes the uniforms. Deeks reminds her he wore one as a cop.
As they banter about Deeks being a cop, Kensi realizes the mother left the baby to be found. If she wanted to hide the baby, she could have thrown her overboard. She could have smothered the baby. These are fairly horrifying thoughts to Deeks. Wrapping the baby up to keep her warm, tying off the umbilical cord, leaving the light on so someone would find her – the baby’s mother wanted the baby to found. Deeks is confused. Kensi is sure the mother did everything to keep the baby safe and they can use that to find her.
In Syria, Zasha is trying to talk to some female locals but is surrounded by four men with rifles. As they close in on Zasha, a man on a motorcycle pulls up and tells her got get on in English. The two ride off with Zasha firing her pistol at the men with rifles to ensure their getaway.
In the sickbay, the ship’s doctor is taking the temperatures of five or so female sailors. All are normal and are sent to return to their duties. The doctor has check 35 women, Morgan checked 19 who couldn’t leave their posts. Deeks spoke to the chaplain, no help there. The ship doctor is going to talk to the CO about a ship wide announcement – the mother is running out of time. Morgan suggests Kensi and Deeks grab a list of untested female sailors and a digital thermometer so they can join in on the testing.
Along a pier, Nate walks up to Admiral Kilbride. Nate wonders why they’re meeting by the beach. The Admiral works in a fishbowl in the office. Besides, it is a beautiful day. LA’s only appeal is the weather outside of the earthquakes, mudslides and fires. Nate wants to know why the Admiral wants to see him. As the team psychologist and someone who ran numerous off the books assignments for “Henrietta”, “just tell me what the hell she’s gotten herself into.”
Nate is evasive, asking what does the Admiral know. He knows she’s in Syria and she made a mess of her mole hunt. What he doesn’t know is if the latest drone strike – it wasn’t a suicide bombing after all – had anything to do with her. Hetty was in Syria to negotiate the release of several hostages. The Admiral asks who are the hostages but Nate does not know. Nate did a profile of the al Qaeda leader for Hetty. He hasn’t heard from her in a few days with no way of reaching her. Hetty calls him, not the other way around.
The Admiral asks if one of the profiles Nate did was on al-Kalmira. It was. “Son of a bitch, we don’t know what the guy looks like and she’s having lunch with him.” The Admiral thinks Hetty called in the drone strike herself (sharing a brain with Callen). Nate wouldn’t put it past her. “Nor should you,” the Admiral replies. Without much else to offer, Nate apologies. As the Admiral is about to leave, he asks a favor. He’d like some professional insight into the rest of the team. Nate is reticent again. The Admiral doesn’t care who wets the bed, he needs help dealing “with this island of misfit toys I’ve inherited.” He’s looking to avoid pitfalls to make the team better. The team being better can save lives, “notably mine.”
Racing into Ops, Callen learns from Fatima she can’t confirm if Hetty or al-Kalmira were there before or after the bombing. Callen gets a call from Zasha. She’s in trouble but was helped by an American. Callen wants to talk to the American. They play “who are you?” for a while but recognize the others’ voice. Callen is talking to Harris Keane. Keane was Hetty’s overwatch until the bombing – “I’m still coughing up dust.” After the bombing, Hetty was gone. She either ran off just before the bombing or went underground just after. Keane hasn’t heard from her. There is no sign she was killed.
Hetty is negotiating the release of two Western journalists, which is a surprise to Callen. It isn’t to Keane since the journalists are actually NCIS staffers Hetty had on a long undercover assignment. They were captured and she’s trying to get them back. Keane doesn’t know the name of the journalists/NCIS Agents. That’s to keep them safe if he is compromised. Saying the locals are freaking out (they just got bombed, it’s hardly outrageous), Keane has a rather large war chest from Hetty to keep them moving around.
Zasha is worried they are about to be found, they need to wrap up the call. Callen asks Keane to keep him in the loop. He also asks about his version of the Noble Maidens. If Hetty dies, all that information dies with her. Keane admits there was a remedial reading program run by the Department of Education but really by the CIA. It was the Drona Project. Zasha cuts off the call. Keane has some vodka for them to share.
With a digital thermometer, Kensi and Deeks are checking some of the female staffers with A-positive blood. Kensi decides to look again around the cargo area while Deeks keeps taking some temperatures. When Deeks is turned down by two female pilots, he decides to find Kensi. He does after wandering around a bit. In the storge area, Deeks finds the mother unconscious but with a pulse.
As the medical team tries to stabilize the mother, she’s identified as Petty Officer Third Class Sofia Addison, a model sailor. Unfortunately, she’s battling sepsis and has lost a lot of blood. She’s getting treatment but isn’t out of the woods yet. Morgan tells Kensi and Deeks that Addison would be dead if they didn’t find her. Kensi is beside herself – they should have been looking for her earlier. Deeks thinks the real issue is finding the father because if Addison doesn’t make it, that baby girl needs her dad. Kensi admits she hates the case. Deeks would rather be shot at by bad guys.
A sailor named Elger is looking into the sickbay window. Deeks asks if they could do something for him. He’d like to know about the status of Petty Officer Addison. They’re good friends. Kensi wants to know how good of friends. Elger says they were great friends. Kensi and Deeks push – were they having sex? Kensi tells him about the baby and Elger is shocked. Deeks brings up a DNA test and they will know who the father is soon – would Elger agree to a test? “Absolutely.” If he isn’t the father, Kensi asks who would Elger think the father could be. No boyfriends on the ship or back at home.
Elger explains that Addison was insecure and intimidated by men. Kensi points out she wasn’t intimidated by him. Elger thinks it was because they’re friends and probably because he’s gay. Addison got along well with the gay men on the ship but not the straight men. She even asked to be removed from escort duty. Deeks asks about escort duty. Elger explains that junior officers are asked to bring around civilian visitors so they don’t get lost, “fall overboard or get sucked into a jet engine.”
Returning to his office, Fatima provides a sitrep on the mother. The Admiral offers a “well done” which Fatima can pass along to Kensi and Deeks.
In their interrogation room, Kensi asks Deeks if he saw “Agnes of God”. He mentions Alice in Chains so no, he hasn’t seen it. Kensi explains the plot – a nun has a baby that she considers a virgin birth. Deeks asks if the nun abandoned her baby. She did, which catches Deeks’s attention. Kensi doesn’t remember the end of the movie, making Kensi the world’s worst storyteller according to Deeks.
Reviewing the paperwork, Deeks finds that Addison was still on escort duty around the time the baby was conceived and she was bringing around some civilian contractors. The request to leave the assignment came right after that. Morgan comes into the room – Addison is awake.
In the sickbay, Addison is on pain meds but doing better. Kensi and Deeks gently question Addison. Deeks asks what she remembers. She doesn’t remember delivering the baby. Deeks asks if one of the other sailors on the Allegiance is the father. Addison says no. Kensi asks about the civilian contractor and Addison reacts. Kensi tells Addison she’s not in trouble. She asks if Addison and the contractor were in a relationship. She denies it. When Deeks asks about contacting the father, Addison starts crying. “He raped me.”
A furious Kensi calls in the rapist’s name, Gary Drummond, and his employer, Ashitom Solutions, to Ops. He works computer software for the DoD. Kensi wants everything done by the book – she wants him to go to jail for what he did.
While Callen fills out a Freedom of Information Act request at his desk, Rountree arrives with news of the rapist. Callen and Rountree are on their way. Arriving at a fancy tech firm, Callen and Sam can’t get anyone’s attention – everyone is wearing headphones. Rountree finds their suspect working way. Tapping on his headphones, Callen gets Drummond’s attention. Drummond tries to blow Callen off. Callen cuts the power to Drummond’s work station. When Rountree explains he’s under arrest and tries to cuff Drummond, Drummond starts yelling about assault. Callen brings up what happened to Petty Officer Addison as true assault but Drummond plays dumb. When Rountree gives him one last chance to go quietly, he takes a swing only to be put on the ground with great force by Callen. None of his headphone wearing coworkers even notice.
Medics are taking Addison to San Diego for more treatment and to be reunited with her daughter. Kensi has a photo of the Addison’s daughter and “even though she came from a very ugly place, she’s a really beautiful little girl. She’s a fighter like her Mom.” Kensi asks if Addison wants to see the photo, she does. As Addison is being taken away, she asks for Kensi one last time. Asking Kensi’s first name, Addison says she is going to name her baby Evelyn after her mother. Deeks teases Kensi about Addison running away from naming her baby Kensi.
Later that night, Nate joins the Admiral in his office and agrees it is a fishbowl. The Admiral thinks the office is like working at a peep show without the tips. Since the health and safety of the team is his top concern, Nate is there to help.
A cocky Gary Drummond says the classified nature of his work means NCIS can’t make him talk. Rountree doesn’t care about his work, he cares about the woman Drummond raped. Drummond says “some dumb sailor chick gets knocked up” and to save her boyfriend from court martial he’s being blamed. Callen and Rountree are so disgusted they have Castor take him from interrogation. Rountree offers to driving Callen back to the office but Anna is picking him up.
The Admiral sums up the team to Nate. He doesn’t work about Sam, Kensi either. “Deeks on the other hand is a basket case,” but the Admiral thinks Nate knows that. His major concern is Callen. When the Admiral asks Nate about something called Drona, Nate brings up “Dronacharya”. It is a teacher of military arts in a Hindu story.
The Admiral explains that Drona was a project in the heyday of the Cold War to teach underprivileged children. Foster children were tested under the guise of looking for learning disabilities to identify those who were “gifted” despite their lots in life. “I’m not going to like this, am I?” Nate says to the Admiral. Neither of them do. Saying it is similar to a Soviet training plan. Nate thought this was an urban legend. The Admiral knows Hetty was involved as was a young Callen as a subject.
Worried that Callen could react badly when Hetty returns so Nate is going to be around for damage control. Not only could things go south between Hetty and Callen, it could sink the team. Callen is the team’s biggest worry.
In the boatshed, Callen is leaving a message for Zasha when Anna walks in. But Anna is stunned to see Callen since she’s Facetiming with him on her phone. Showing Callen the phone, he is talking to himself on the phone. Phone Callen tells real Callen to get some rest. It won’t be fun to come after him if he’s not at his best.
What head canon can be formed from here: More of the unending Callen backstory. Yawn. There were some nice callbacks in this episode from the Allegiance, to the Russian dolphins, to the return of Nate and the return of Katya with the identity stealing software.
The Kensi and Deeks scenes were all twinged with a little sadness that if they had a daughter, she’d be loved and cared for at all costs. Hearing the whole story, however, gets the team rightly infuriated.
The Admiral has to be a fun character to write for and Gerald McRaney hits it out the park with every line of dialogue. I’m rarely bothered about cut scenes – the show has a good history of recycling them – but the scene between the Admiral and Fatima discussing taking a walk needs to used. They were wonderful.
Finally, the male sailors on the Allegiance were interesting characters and good men. The sailor whose clothing was used to keep the baby warm was happy that it was his clothes keeping the baby warm. Elger hanging outside of the sick bay checking to see if Addison was OK – that’s a really good compare/contrast with the software rapist.
Episode number: This is episode 11 of season 13 – the halfway point! It is episode 291 overall.

5 Benefits of reading books :and why you should read books?
There are so many benefits to reading books.
But let's face it, it's hard to get motivated to read a 357-page book when we could be watching a movie, listening to an audiobook, or watching a YouTube video introduction.
Am I right?
But if social media posts, text messages, and headlines are the majority of what you read every day, you're missing out.
What are the Benefits of reading?
Here are 5 benefits of reading that illustrate the importance of reading books. When you read every day you:
Gain valuable knowledge
Exercise your brain
Improve your memory
Self-Knowledge
Reduce stress
1. Gain Valuable Knowledge
One of the most obvious advantages reading is studying.
And unlike a YouTube video or podcast, books provide access to in-depth knowledge. In other words, if you want to become more productive, which do you think you'll learn more from:
A book by someone who's studied productivity for 20 years,
Or a 10-minute YouTube video by someone interested in the topic?
Which do you think you'll absorb more from? Which do you think is more likely to help change your habits? Books, of course!
Going beyond the surface of a subject is essential to success, too. This is probably why the author Roald Dahl once said, "If you are going to get anywhere in life, you have to read a lot of books."
Plus, you can learn literally anything from books. For example, whenever anybody asks Elon Musk, the founder of SpaceX, how he learned to build rockets, he says, "I read books."
So, what do you want to learn?
Perhaps you want to learn how to code, paint, or start a successful business? Maybe you want to learn how to stop procrastinating? Or perhaps you want to figure out how to change your life completely?
Click here for the best books that helped me to get better in life.
Whatever it is, reading can help.
2. Exercise your brain.
Why is reading important? As 17th century English writer Joseph Addison once wrote, "Reading is to the mind what exercise is to the body."
So what does reading do to your brain? Research confirms that reading stimulates complex networks of circuits and signals in the brain. What's more, these networks become stronger and more complex as reading skills increase. In another study, researchers examined how reading fiction affects our brains. Study participants read the novel "Pompeii" by Robert Harris, and as the story progressed, more areas of the brain were activated.
3.Improve your memory
Do you forget things all the time? Do you have lots of to-do lists but can't remember what's on them? Fear not - one of the benefits of reading is that it improves your memory.
When you read a non-fiction book, you also absorb a lot of information about the subject you're reading. Likewise, every time you read a novel, you have to remember a lot of information about the plot and subplots, the characters and their relationships, and the setting of the story.
That's a lot of information!
All this new information creates new memories. Each new memory creates a synapse or strengthens an old memory.
Its results? Daily reading improves memory - it helps to learn, store new information, and recall memories more effectively.
4.Self Knowledge
The most moving (and enduring) books in your collection are the ones that become mirrors. When you read something that makes you nod and think, that mirror is placed in front of you, yes, it is. You've just found a part of yourself.
You may cry, smile, or cringe as you read it yourself. You feel like you've been searching for this moment, but you've never known it. The author is great at describing the world (your world) or reminding you of your past, illuminating your core beliefs, or sparking the faint hope you hold.
Perhaps a stranger's text helps you connect with the person you should know best, yourself, and reminds you that sometimes there's a stranger inside you, too. But the more you read, the more you can educate yourself by discovering what is real.
5.Reduce Stress
Another effect of reading is that it reduces stress.
Studies show that 30 minutes of reading can lower blood pressure, heart rate and mental stress. Another study found that reading is the best way to relieve stress compared to walking, having a cup of tea or coffee, and playing video games. Studies have found that just six minutes of reading is enough to reduce stress levels by more than two-thirds.
What should you read?
You should read a book that´s intresting for you or a book that help you get better in life. This can be books about how you can become more dicipline or make money and build a finance income. If you are intresting in these books i would recommend you to read these.

MalevolentReverie has a huge collections of books set in a circle of psychopaths and their “mates.” She has a lot of original fiction on fictionpress, and she’s recently been adapting them to Kylo Ren/Rey fandom. I will say that her stories are definitely not for the faint of heart, but the universe she’s built is amazing. Her heroines are the most bad-ass. IMO her recent Reylo works are the most dark (as in, I can’t read them. Her writing is amazing but oh wow is it DARK) while her older fiction on fictionpress are dark but not unbearable to read.
https://www.fictionpress.com/u/745087/Malevolent-Reverie

I can't say much for myself but I'll do some more digging in the previous fanfics I've read. You might want to check out "Into the Shadows" by PinnacleChoi. I also read a great SVU one that I'll try and find again for you.
And of course, if anyone else has recs that you think would fit, please please submit/send an ask!! I'd really love to read them too as I can barely find any others either lol.

I meant with a witch someone jsbdksbdjdb Sorry I had no idea that it was wrong!
Sal with a Witch S/O
He is pretty shocked to say the least
His life is already pretty wrapped up in the super natural
What’s one more spiritual being?
His only knowledge of witchcraft is like...the cheesy movies
and..maybe....//Rosenberg Flashbacks//
He asks his s/o lots of questions
Maybe they can help with the mystery of Addison Apartments?
The gang is pretty weary of them at first
Especially Larry
Eventually they earn the gang’s trust
Ash and them become best friends
They try to teach her some spells but she fails miserably
Practice makes perfect tho
Sal is just happy they’re all getting along
This is by no means meant to offend those who actually practice Wicca or other forms of witchcraft!! I am not that knowledgeable of the subject so I went more towards the Harry Potter type, I hope that’s ok!

RCD Appreciation Week Day 2 Prompt
(Thomas Hunt x oc*Amanda) with the prompt of a favorite movie.
(Thomas x Amanda) A Red Carpet Diaries Fan Fiction taken from my storyline And Then I Met You
Movie: When Harry Met Sally (movie clip about this very subject Thomas and Amanda discuss)
@lxaah11 @alleksa16 @penguininapinktuxedo @blackcoffee85 @stopforamoment @darley1101 @hopefulmoonobject @krsnlove @annekebbphotography @gibbles82 @cora-nova @bella-ca @hopelessromantic1352 . @sunflowergirl05 @desiree-0816 @greywitchyshots @lilyofchoices @moodyvalentinestories @emceesynonymroll @dr-nancy-house @aworldoffandoms @ab1901 @pixieferry @lolablackwrites @flyawayboo @i-bloody-love-drake-walker @trappedinfandoms @rcd-appreciation
Masterlist
Something More
It was late one December evening when Thomas and Amanda continued with their month long marathon of holidays in film. They had finished many favorites from the thirties and forties and were now starting to watch those considered more modern day classics.
It was Amanda's turn to pick one. When Harry Met Sally was the next on her list. When Thomas had a look of disbelief on his face at how the romcom connected with their theme, she was more than ready to point out the pivotal New Year's Eve scene and the few Christmas tree shopping ones.
Thomas loved debating film with his wife. He nodded in acceptance to her argument, softly smiling when she kissed him for his agreement.
He cuddled her close beside him on the couch, making certain the fuzzy red Christmas blanket she had brought was snug around them while she handed him a plate of iced sugar and gingerbread cookies. The mulled wine he had surprised her with topped off their date night in.
As usually happened between the two who loved to see stories brought to life, they began to debate the argument the movie presented.
"He's right." Amanda remarked, standing up to take the empty dishes to the kitchen.
Thomas pushed pause and got up to assist her. "Who's right?"
She gestured toward the screen. "Harry. Men and women can't be friends without sex somehow coming into the picture."
Thomas followed after her and leaned against the kitchen counter. "I have been friends with women and sex did not come into play. Look at my relationships with Addison and Holly."
Amanda held up her finger. "Ah, but that is because you have a strict rule of never dating those you work with. Since you keep them as permanent members of your film crew, it was inevitable that you would snuff out any possible notion of romance with them."
Thomas quirked an eyebrow. "Are we discussing romance or sex?"
Amanda paused. "I think you can't have one without the other if between friends."
"And why is that?" He asked, thoroughly enjoying their discussion.
"Well, friends typically care about one another. A form of love develops, thus a sexual attraction would involve some level of romance." She reached for the wine and refilled both their glasses.
Thomas accepted his goblet with a slight frown. "I will concede that particular point but I disagree with you about sex always coming between men and women that are friends."
"Really?" Amanda leaned next to him as a teasing smile formed. "What about us?"
"What about us?" He reiterated.
"We were friends at first." She pointed out.
"Yes, I suppose we were." He chuckled when she playfully smacked his arm. Thomas slipped it around her waist. "And?"
"And I believe we had sex between us." She persisted.
"Had? I believe that is still the case." He pressed his lips against her neck.
"You are only proving my point." A surprised gasp slipped from her parted lips when he lifted her onto the counter. Thomas took advantage and captured her lips in a steamy kiss.
"I'm not." He muttered against her skin.
She leaned back and quirked an eyebrow. "How can you possibly not be proving it?"
His lips curved in that smile of his that made her heart race with the promises it held. "Because sexual attraction did not come in the midst of our friendship. Our growing closeness was what came between my initial desire for you."
She gripped his collar, pulling him agonizingly close while her smile grew. "I see. So that pesky friendship of ours put a damper on your lust?"
His hands started at her legs and leisurely moved up her body to tangle in her hair. "It failed in dousing it. If anything, it only enhanced it."
Thomas slowly kissed a line from her lips down. Amanda closed her eyes and tried to focus her thoughts. "This explains your willingness to marry me so quickly."
He paused and returned to her lips. "Exactly." He slid her off the counter, pressing his body to hers. "Shall we finish the movie or take this discussion somewhere more appropriate to the topic?"
Her fingers tangled with his as she guided him to the stairs. "What kind of friends would we be if we didn't further discuss this until a satisfying conclusion is reached?"

if you could pair any two students to form the ultimate power couple, who would be your top three couples and why?
honestly, most of the glee club needs to be sterilized and kept from reproducing so pairing them up is dangerous since apparently a couple of them are extremely fertile... also because there's far too much obnoxious energy in that club. and then some of them, i won't name names (but you know who you are), are plain uggsville. but let me think... i guess, gun to my head, if i had to pick couples that would actually be power couples that get shit done and look hot together

Bless the Broken Road - 14
After the briefing, Jane and Spencer headed to the jet. On the way there, he asked her what Garcia needed help with.
“She was interrogating me about our relationship. Heads up, she plans on doing the same to you,” she told him.
Spencer chuckled. “Alright.”
When they had gotten settled on the plane, Jane’s phone went off.
“Hey Jack,” she greeted her little brother.
“Hey Jane, how are you doing?” he replied.
“I’m good. We just got on the jet to head to a new case. How are you?”
“I’m great. I wanted to tell you that I might be getting a promotion at work!”
“Jack, that’s awesome!”
“I might be. It’s not for sure yet.”
“Well still, it’s an honor to be considered,” she reminded him.
"If I get it, I’ll also get a raise. I’m thinking that with the extra money I can look into buying a house! I don’t need that much space or anything, but I would like to own a place instead of renting, you know?”
“That’s great!”
“So when do you want to visit again?” Jack asked, changing the subject. “What about this coming weekend?”
“This weekend’s no good. It’s Halloween and Spence is extremely obsessed with the holiday,” she explained, looking at Spencer sitting next to her.
"Even more than you are with Harry Potter?”
“If I were obsessed, but I’m not so actually he’s super obsessed and I’m sure he’ll want to celebrate all weekend.”
Spencer nudged her arm, causing her to shout.
“What was that?” Jack asked.
“Oh, nothing, Spencer just nudged me. Anyway, maybe the following weekend? I’ll let you know.”
“Alright. I have to go back to work. My break is almost over.”
“OK, I love you. Bye.”
Jane put her phone in her bag before sharing the potential good news.
“Jack says he might be up for a promotion and if he gets it, he’s buying a house!” she said.
“That’s great!” Spencer cheered.
“You’ll have to let me know if he does look into buying a house. I can help Jack pick out a nice one. I renovate properties and I’ll have a good idea what to look for,” Morgan spoke from his seat across from her.
~~~
By Friday, the team was back working in the office. Jane was at her desk filling out some paperwork when Spencer snuck up behind her, wearing a mask.
“Raaaaaaawr!” he yelled, causing her to scream.
“Spencer! Why’d you scare me like that?!”
"Cause it's almost Halloween!” he cheered, laughing as he took off the mask. “There are tons of options for celebrating this weekend. The drive-in is doing movies tonight and tomorrow night, there’s a bunch of haunted houses, Fall Festival has loads of fall treats and activities and at night they do a reenactment of the 19th-century phantasmagoria.”
“Phantasmagoria?” she questioned.
"Phantasmagorias are these amazing pre-cinema projected ghost shows invented in France, where the showman attempted to spook the audience using science magic."
Jane laughed at his excitement. “Well, I’m up for anything. What do you think we should do?”
He paused a moment in thought. “What if we do haunted houses tonight and then the fall festival and phantasmagoria tomorrow on actual Halloween?”
"Alright,” she agreed.
“Really?”
“Yeah...” Jane trailed off, confused by his confusion.
“it's just that no one ever is interested in going to the phantasmagoria with me,” he admitted.
“Well it sounds interesting, and if you want to see it then I'm fine with that.”
Spencer knelt down and hugged her in appreciation. “Thank you for putting up with my nerdy fascinations!” he told her. She laughed. “We should both hurry and get our work done so we can leave early.”
Jane agreed. “Sounds like a great idea, but I need to use the bathroom first.”
Spencer nodded and returned to his own desk while she made her way to the bathroom.
While in the bathroom, Jane ran into Penelope, who was all decked out in orange and black.
“Oh, I see someone else is in a Halloweeny mood as well!” Jane commented.
“Yes, well, no one can be as obsessed as Reid.”
“You’re not wrong,” Jane laughed. “Tonight we’re going to haunted houses and tomorrow he’s taking me to the Fall Festival to see the phantasmagoria.”
“Aww. You two are so nerdy and cute!”
“Well, if it makes him happy, then I’m happy,” Jane replied.
~
That night, Jane and Spencer headed out to go through some haunted houses.
“Spence?” Jane spoke as she stopped walking towards the house.
“Yeah?” Spencer stopped a few feet ahead and looked back at her.
“I’m not so sure about this. I didn’t handle the horror movie we watched that one time all that well,” she confessed.
“Jane,” he walked back to her and took her hands. “We handle the real monsters every day. Just remember that none of it is real. Okay?”
Jane sighed and looked up at him. “OK. Let’s go.”
Spencer smiled and kissed her forehead before leading her up to the house.
After going through the haunted house, Spencer took her to another one. Once they had gone through that one too, Spencer said, “Just one more!”
“Fine,” Jane agreed. “But only because I love how happy you are.”
They headed to the final house and got in line. When it was their turn to go through, she clung onto him as best she could.
A spider dropped down from the ceiling and Jane screamed. Spencer shouted in surprise but then laughed, enjoying her fear.
As the pair continued through the house, the pathway narrowed and they were forced to go single-file.
Jane opted to go first, holding Spencer’s hand behind her.
A series of scares jumped out at them in rapid succession. During the chaos, Spencer’s hand slipped out of hers. She turned around to see that he had disappeared.
“Spencer? Spencer!” she called out, looking around.
Another man jumped out and she screamed again.
Jane was forced to continue down the pathway until she finally made it outside. She spun around, trying to locate Spencer. Unable to find him, she began hyperventilating and fell to her knees, terrified.
“Jane!” Spencer called, seeing her on the ground once he made it out of the exit. He ran over and knelt down beside her, throwing his arms around her.
“I couldn’t find you!” she cried.
“I know. I’m here now. I’m sorry, we can head home now, alright?”
“Alright.”
He helped her to her feet and led her back to the car.
On the way back to her apartment, Spencer apologized again. “We should’ve been done after the 2nd house.”
“It’s not your fault,” Jane assured him. “You said we could be done whenever I wanted but I saw how happy it made you and I didn’t want to disappoint you. I chose your happiness over my own fears.”
Spencer pulled into a parking spot at the apartment complex. Once the car was in park, he reached over and hugged her and kissed her.
“I love you. You know that, right?” Spencer told her.
“I love you too,” she repeated back.
Jane grabbed her purse and exited the vehicle, bidding him goodnight.
~
The next day was officially Halloween. Jane and Spencer spent the day at Fall Festival. When the sun went down, they headed over to the place where they would put on the phantasmagoria.
Spencer’s face lit up at the sight, but Jane’s focus was on watching him, enjoying how excited and happy he was. Jane snuck a picture of him and sent it to Garcia, telling her how adorable he was.
On the way back to the car, Spencer grinned at her and leaned down, kissing her cheek.
“What was that for?” Jane asked.
“I’m just so grateful for you putting up with me this weekend,” Spencer laughed. “I know I can go a little hardcore this time of year.”
“Well, I like Halloween as well. And I love seeing how happy it makes you,” Jane told him.
They headed to Reid’s apartment and changed into pajamas before settling in on the couch to watch Halloween movies, which Jane picked out. First, they watched Hocus Pocus and then The Nightmare Before Christmas.
”We already watched that one though,” Spencer argued when she put in Nightmare.
”But it’s sooooo good!” Jane insisted.
Towards the end of the movie, Jane felt her eyelids grow heavy. She gave in to the temptation and fell asleep on the couch.
~
Jane opened her eyes to find herself lying in bed next to Spencer. He was already awake, staring back at her.
“Good morning,” he spoke softly.
“Morning,” she mumbled back. “Didn’t I fall asleep on the couch?”
“Yeah, you did.” He moved to sit up on his elbow. “I carried you to the bed. I figured it’d be more comfortable,” he explained.
“That’s so sweet.” Jane reached up and ran a hand through his hair before caressing his cheek. “I love you,” she told him.
Spencer smiled and leaned down to kiss her, telling her between kisses, “I love you, too.” He rolled to be on top of her and began trailing kisses down her neck.
Before things could go any further, both of their phones began to go off with texts from Garcia.
Spencer rolled back off of her with a groan, causing her to giggle.
He reached for both of their phones, handing Jane hers, and read the text message.
I hope you all enjoyed your Halloween cause now it’s November and we have a case. ~Garcia
“I guess we have to go,” Jane stated, moving to get ready.
When the team was all gathered in the briefing room, Garcia flashed images up on the screen and began to share information on the case.
“Three people have been found dead at a haunted house. All of them had different TODs: 10, 10:30, and midnight. The only one who someone noticed was missing was the 3rd victim, Maisy Gibson.”
“Who reported her missing?” Hotch asked.
“See sir, technically, she wasn’t officially reported missing. Her friend says she got separated in the haunted house and she couldn’t find her so she alerted the staff supervisor. It was around closing time so they were able to go search for her. That’s when they found her body along with the two male victims. All of them were stabbed to death and all had this painted on their face.”
Garcia pointed her clicker at the screen and pictures of the bodies popped up, the sign of satan on each of their faces in red paint.
Morgan looked over at Reid and Addison and noticed the look they exchanged.
“What is it?” he asked.
“Jane and I went to that haunted house last night,” Spencer shared with the group.
“Two-thirds of the way through, they make you separate and you’re on your own until the end,” Jane informed them.“It’s possible that the UNSUB was in the house along the divided path.”
“He could grab people when no one else is around and when people do come while he’s killing, people think it’s all an act and don’t realize they’re witnessing an actual murder,” JJ contributed.
“Was there anyone there with the first two victims?” Rossi asked.
“They were actually there with each other, judging by their posts on social media,” Garcia told them.
“They must have been put into separate groups when they went through,” Spencer thought aloud.
“Addison and Reid, I want you to head to the crime scene,” Hotch ordered. “Morgan, Rossi, and I will talk to the friend and families of the victims. JJ, I want you to cover the press. We don’t want the signs of devil worship to get out. Garcia, find a way to figure out any witnesses that we could possibly talk to. See who posted about being at the house.”
The team mobilized immediately.
Around fifteen minutes later, Jane and Reid met the owner of the haunted house at the entrance area. From there, he led the pair back to the crime scene.
“Do you know which of your actors were assigned to this area?” Jane asked the man.
“I give them the freedom to improvise, but no one was specifically assigned to this area,” he explained.
Jane nodded in understanding.
“We’re going to need a list of all employees sent to our technical analyst.”
“I can get that for you.”
Jane pulled out a card. “Please send the file to this address.”
“Got it.” He took the card. “I’ll get that sent off right away. If you need anything, I’ll be up front.”
Spencer thanked him before turning to help Jane examine the crime scene.
“So how’d this play out?” he asked.
“So the victim is going through the house. They get distracted by something jumping out or a noise or something.” She turned around and bent over, slipping a glove on before picking up a chain connected to the wall. “The UNSUB grabs them from behind and chains them to the wall.”
“He then stabs them and paints the sign on their face,” Reid continued.
“The UNSUB had to know the victims would be alone. The first two were friends but no one else was with them so nobody would know that they didn’t come out. But how’d he do it? He couldn’t be in two places at once,” Jane questioned.
“The first two victims went through with strangers who didn’t care to notice they never exited the house with them.”
Jane thought for a moment. “He must have seen Maisy alone in line while her friend was in the bathroom or something. He assumed she was alone when she wasn’t.”
“The mistake that got him caught,” Spencer confirmed.
Jane took a deep breath and looked around, trying to avoid looking at Spencer.
“Something’s bothering you. What is it?” he asked bluntly.
Jane wheeled around to look at him. Her eyes widened in surprise at how fast he picked up on her emotions. She opened and closed her mouth several times before finally speaking. “It could’ve been one of us, Spencer.”
He shook his head. “The UNSUB was there last night, not the night we went,” he argued.
“Well, you don’t know that. He could’ve been! He clearly knew what he was doing. It’s likely he’s done it before. What if he killed you or me?”
Spencer stepped forward and embraced her, giving the top of her head a kiss. “He didn’t though. Don’t focus on what could’ve happened,” he told her.
“Yeah, you’re right,” she agreed, stepping out of his arms. “Let’s head back to headquarters. I’ll call Garcia and let her know the list is coming her way.”
They headed back out to the front and thanked the owner before driving back. On the way there, Jane called Garcia about the list of employees. “Also check missing person reports for people who went missing around the hours of operation for the haunted house. If any of the reports say they last saw them before they left to go to the house, it could be more victims,” she informed her.
The team gathered back in the briefing room to discuss new information they’d found.
A few minutes into discussions, Garcia entered the room.
“I talked to potential witnesses who described the man as tall and stocky. He was wearing a mask so I couldn’t get any facial features. There are 15 men in the staff and 7 fit that description.”
“Where are you at with the missing person reports?” Reid asked.
“Right, that. I’ve found 13 matches.”
“13 other victims?” Morgan questioned.
“Unfortunately, it seems so,” Garcia confirmed.
“He started killing before last night,” JJ stated.
“And he’s gotten away with it up until now,” Jane added.
“He must have been able to discard the bodies at the end of the night without being noticed,” Rossi thought.
“If he has a message, those bodies will show up soon with the same paint on their faces,” Morgan spoke.
“Let’s have someone go back to talk to the owner again about our possible UNSUBS,” Hotch suggested.
Jane stood up. “Spencer and I’ll go back,” she volunteered, grabbing the keys to the SUV.
Hotch nodded in approval and she sped out the door. She beat Reid to the elevator and he had to hurry to catch up before it closed.

MalevolentReverie has a huge collections of books set in a circle of psychopaths and their "mates." She has a lot of original fiction on fictionpress, and she's recently been adapting them to Kylo Ren/Rey fandom. I will say that her stories are definitely not for the faint of heart, but the universe she's built is amazing. Her heroines are the most bad-ass. IMO her recent Reylo works are the most dark (as in, I can't read them. Her writing is amazing but oh wow is it DARK) while her older fiction on fictionpress are dark but not unbearable to read.
https://www.fictionpress.com/u/745087/Malevolent-Reverie
These are all the ones I can think of off the top of my head. Will re-comment if anything else comes my way. The one common theme is that the female either never gives in or she achieves her own happy ending. I find that very often, "noncon" stories are just trauma porn, which I don't advocate. I look for stories where the female character rises above her sexual assault, instead of being dominated by it. Oftentimes, novels romanticize sexual assault as long as said assaulter is some buff, attractive "alpha" male. In other words, all of the linked stories redefine the typical "male-assaults-female-but-female-loves-him-anyways" storyline. Happy reading! If anyone has any other recommendations, don't be afraid to comment below!”
Thanks so much Anon!
