Summary
JJ is known for being strong but after BAU-Gate and losing Will, she starts to spiral. Her reckless behaviour begins to put herself and others in danger, when Emily confronts her her carefully constructed armour crumbles revealing the depth of her grief and the darkness that consumes her.
As JJ grapples with the loss she falls into Emily as the last safe haven. The need to feel something besides overwhelming pain wins and Emily meets her in it.
*OR*
Survival, consequences, and joy. A love story amongst a wreckage, found family sifting through the rubble.
After Paris. After Askari. After Will. Secrets don't stay silent forever. JJ unravels. Emily tries to do what she always has, hold her together. Everyone else is dragged into the gravity between them as they figure it out.
From breaking to what comes after. A journey that isn't linear, love that isn't always easy, and strength built from staring into the dark until it blinks first.
