Summary
"Just... be careful with it. It's Louis."
He freezes, the thing halfway into the footwell. He looks from the suitcase to her, his expression utterly blank. "Louis."
"Vuitton," she clarifies, as if it's the most obvious thing in the world. "My boyfriend, Derek, got it for me."
Hotch stares at her for a beat longer, then tries not to eye the suitcase in the footwell. "You... gave your suitcase a name."
"Wait... are you actually serious right now?"

Summary
"I should, uh," he begins, gesturing vaguely down the street. "I've got to..."
"Of course, of course, don't let us keep you," Kate says, her voice a little too bright. She fumbles in her leather bag and nudges out of it a white business card. "Here. Grab my card. Do call. Let's... catch up. Go out sometime."
He takes it, his fingers brushing her gloved ones. He doesn't look at it. He can't look away from Emily, who is staring with naked frown at the rectangle in his hand, her lip curled in a fraction of a sneer she thinks he can't see.
He shoves the card into the pocket of his coat.
"I will," he says. He nods at Kate, then forces his eyes to Emily. "A real pleasure meeting you, ma'am."

Summary
Then she speaks. "What's he talking about?"
He can't tell if she's talking to him or to the whole table. She has that way of speaking, broad, inclusive, a leader addressing the room. He waits, hoping someone else will jump in, just to buy his heart a second to slow down.
"Oh, you know exactly what he's talking about," Rossi says, waving a hand like he's shooing a fly.
"Come on, let's not put Aaron on the spot again," JJ chimes in, her voice gentle.
"Oh, right. That." Emily's sigh is perfectly casual. She sets her glass down. "Really, Aaron, don't sweat it. People say all kinds of things when they're drunk."

Summary
“You didn’t call. You didn’t text.” Her voice cracks and she shuts up, swallows until the shakiness in her throat disappears. Her whole body is jittery, trembling as she looks at him. Her pulse roars in her ears, drowning out the soft justifications that try to fall from his lips.
Aaron wets his dry lips. “I’m so sorry,” he whispers. He steps forward to close the distance between them. Emily looks away. Step back, she tells herself, but she can’t. She’s spent so long craving his presence, and now that he’s here her feet are frozen in place.
Scratch is finally down, but Aaron doesn't come home. Not until Emily runs into him by accident.

It's a bad idea to even consider something could happen between them. To weigh the odds would be playing with fire. To act upon it - they might as well just throw gas and watch it burn. Part 3 of 3.

Summary
There's an empty seat straight across from him. A seat where a little boy used to perch each morning, wolfing down his breakfast like someone was about to take it from him. He would poke at his food with his fork and tell Bruce about whatever he was studying in school, or what book he was reading.
A gaping hole sits in front of his face. A bleeding wound in his life where his second son used to be.
Good morning, B.

Summary
So, it didn’t start out like this.
Alfred would scoff at the statement, about how Bruce was trying to justify the whole situation to himself. It had started out as a simple design, black everything with black outlines and black hood. It got a little more intense as the world went on, got wind of his ghost on the streets, and became scared of The Bat . So Bruce got a little more creative with it, Alfred and him had a good laugh over the name, the scare, and Alfred had a vicious streak of humor that he had passed onto his ward-
So now the suit had a visible bat-theme, an insignia to drape in the shadows and to paint across the streets of Gotham.
It only took a year into the whole charade of heroism for Bruce to overhear a conversation between some goons- some low level thug hired by the Riddler this week- about nothing at all pertaining to what the hell the Riddler was doing in the sewers but instead:
“ The Batman can fly, you know, I’ve seen his wings.”
--
A world where nobody has wings, but people think they do, and that changes everything.

Summary
Lawrence is considering the benefits of leaving the room to go throw up somewhere when Vincent finally speaks.
“I wouldn’t call it a crush,” he says, his voice even and calm, brown eyes sparkling.
Lawrence nods, slightly hysterical. “You wouldn’t?” He asks hopefully. Good, okay. Vincent agrees. All that’s here is friendship. Simple, easy, proper. Appropriate. Friendship.
“No.” Vincent shakes his head and sets his teacup down. “I would say that I am in love with you.”
