Summary
"Because he and Hotch spend forever trying to fill in that blank. To summarize Dr. Reid into a single sentence, and Derek comes to the conclusion he’d rather not years later. And it’s not, Reid is a certifiable genius who can solve any problem, or Reid graduated at twelve and got three PhDs before he was twenty, or even Reid is my family. It's this: Reid is a traumatized kid who raised himself in desperate need of help he won’t ask for. That he would never ask for. He doesn’t know how." (gen, one-shot)

a fear of the water was never about H2O by anxiety_banana

Summary
Morgan says quietly on the flight back, “Sorry we couldn’t nail your father for anything.”
“That’s a sentence very few people expect to have come out of their mouths. But thank you.”
“Yeah, well not many people have abusive fathers that blame their children for their, ‘left to get milk,’ schemes.”
In the same way he doesn't fear the water because of the liquid itself, Spencer fears yelling. It drowns him all the same. Post-Memoriam.

Summary
“Reid, what’re these?”
Turning around in the quiet office, privacy feeling like the only blessing he’s been granted, Morgan holds out a stack of letters with the one labeled Derek at the top.
“They’re—” He bites back the truth. He can't. “They’re reminders.”
Spencer doesn't want to die anymore, but there was a time. These are the letters that got him here.

Summary
Hotch has a family he won’t be taking him away from, and he doesn’t think he’s on good enough grounds with Emily to call her. He doesn’t want to explain it to Morgan, and he thinks Penelope might be a bit much on the symptoms. That leaves JJ.
Like he’s resigning to something, like he’s failing (he’s not, he’s not, he’s not), Spencer grabs ahold of his phone.
Or: Spencer's getting clean, but he can't help but be afraid. JJ is there to remind him he's not alone, and be the caretaker he needs in moments like these.
