Rungs on a Ladder (Are Sometimes Made for Skipping) by lame_unicorn

Summary
When JJ reveals that the Pentagon offered her a job that morning on the plane, Jason knows in an instant that it wasn’t going to end there. It was one of those feelings — the kind of foreboding that comes with being on the lookout for one’s whole life, reading patterns in people and the world, the unexplainable feeling of change-to-come. There was Strauss and the blinds down in Hotch’s office, the thin uncertainty in JJ’s voice as she said she declined them. There was no denying the warning signs.
And, if Jason knows anything about bureaucratic big shots, it’s that they don’t stop when someone says no.
Jason might have a solution.

Summary
“Are you going to the game this weekend?”
Jason blinks at the unexpected question. "Uh... no?"
Lee nods sharpy as if they were expecting this. “Cool. Look—” they sigh through their nose, “you can say no, obviously, but me and a couple of friends are throwing a small party this weekend. Want to come?”
Jason doesn't say no. And the only thing between then and now is a guest lecture in his criminology class.
Should be interesting.

Summary
Jason snorts into his glass, then rests his head on his arm against the bartop.
“Jason?”
Right, Rossi. When the barkeeper had asked for a contact, he’d given his. He’s almost, almost, given John’s or Emily’s, but… He’d given Rossi’s. He forgot that. Giving him John’s phone number would’ve been less trouble.
Dammit.

Summary
“So...you’re from the future. In the past. Why?”
“You want the short answer or the long one?”
“Short,” Martin says after a moment’s deliberation. “Until I decide if I trust you.”

It all hinges on which is the greater force: greed...or love.

Summary
The Archivist was silent for a moment. “I led prey to them,” they replied. “I helped them hunt. I asked for a story in return, but they didn’t want to give one, so they brought me to you instead.”
He smiled at that, wide and angry in the dark, clenching his teeth until he could imagine the taste of blood. “Did they, now.”
