    Summary

    He could remember Reid rambling at some point, talking about how as humans, everyone, needed that feeling of connection, that their bodies needed touch to survive and thrive. He’d talked about studies done on orphaned children who went into institutions, into orphanages, and the lack of physical contact caused sometimes lifelong damage. Aaron had wondered at the time why Reid had carried on about it, it hadn’t been relevant to the case, but now… Now he was wondering if it hadn’t been about the case at all. Maybe Reid had been saying that he was the touch-starved child.
