i actually kinda love how rossi meets & clearly sees this rambling fanboy reid, who adores his work & has a missing spot where he'd love another old man to father figure for him & direct him, & instead rossi's (bemused, but) patient with him (more patient than the rest of the team) and keeps some emotional distance while respecting right away that he's a genius & calling him doctor. he's nice (quicker than he's nice to the rest of the team early on) to reid while making it clear he's not going to step into that father figure role
#i think he recognises the autism as well as the genius early on & it softens how he reacts to his rambles?#it def helped overhearing reid mentioning the moratorium on interteam profiling & trying to get morgan & emily to stop profiling his office#dr spencer reid#my post#criminal minds#david rossi#the way ppl talk about it i was expecting to rewatch season 3 & get reid rsd but it's actually so much nicer so quickly#he seems confused & like he's trying to work reid out but he does pretty quickly & isn't mean about it#just maybe a little suspicious at first before he understands
