[The Kissbots don't bother Rebecca at all, so even after she discovers they're back she will be as relaxed as ever in going about her day. It's not a horrible fate to be stuck with someone for a few minute's worth of time, no hassle at all and it's easily solved. So she's not about to go giving people a wide berth in passing or avoiding hitting the streets today, her routine is average. She goes to a few shops, loading up on groceries and other miscellaneous items and working a stretch in the DF HQ.

(Literally, you can find her stretching on her break in a set of gym clothes with yoga mat in tow.)

[Private to Reid - Late Afternoon]

Hey, guess you know what day it is by now, huh?

Just wondered if you wanted a coffee or anything. I can leave it on the doorstep, no prob.

	[She might've listened to that broadcast, sure.] How do you know him? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's... kind of complicated. We met five years ago... well, from my perspective it's been five years. He'd attended a few of my lectures at Georgetown and then he looked me up, because... Because he thought he might kill someone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She thinks that over.] So he had the forethought to stop himself? That's good, right? [...] Did he -? [Kill anyone.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-01-30 04:58 pm UTC (link)
	No, he didn't. Last I saw him, he was just about to be institutionalized. [ A beat. ] He tried to commit suicide. Would've succeeded too, if he hadn't left my business card out... it had my cell number. [ So yes, he saved him. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2014-01-30 07:11 pm UTC (link)
	I'm glad you were there for him. [It's a tricky situation though, she can see that much.] How's he doing here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-01-30 08:04 pm UTC (link)
	It's difficult to say. I think he's doing alright, under the circumstances. [ But for how long? ] He's, uhm... he's staying with me and Kitty for the time being. I want to keep an eye on him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2014-01-30 08:21 pm UTC (link)
	He's in good hands. [She might be worried for other people.] Not much I can offer, but you know where I am if there's anything I can help with. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-01-30 10:51 pm UTC (link)
	Thanks... I appreciate it. [ Hmn. ] If you do talk to him... be careful, alright? Or maybe gentle is a better word. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2014-01-30 11:06 pm UTC (link)
	Got it. [...] Fifteen's so young. It must be hard. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-01-30 11:22 pm UTC (link)
	Guess why he tried to kill himself. [ Sigh. ] We've had younger UnSubs but... so far, Nathan is one of the few I've met that were actively trying to keep themselves from hurting anyone else to that degree. Regardless of age. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2014-01-31 04:28 am UTC (link)
	That's... good, right? Hopeful... at least? [She feels... bad, that he felt his only option was to eliminate the risk of himself.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-02-01 01:23 pm UTC (link)
	Depends on how you look at it, I suppose. [ A very, very weary smile. ] Don't worry about him. I'll take care of it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2014-02-01 11:41 pm UTC (link)
	Take care of yourself too. [That's important too.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-02-02 12:06 am UTC (link)
	You don't have to worry about me either. We deal with stuff like this on a daily basis back home, remember? It's kind of my job. Really, I'll be fine. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2014-02-02 05:17 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, but when've you ever been trapped underwater with your job 24/7? Just remember breaks. [But that's all she'll say about that.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-02-02 09:51 am UTC (link)
	Okay, the underwater is new. Trapped with my job 24/7? Kind of since I joined the FBI. [ Okay, that's an exaggeration. Still... ] Why do people keep telling me that? You're the third person this week. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2014-02-02 07:02 pm UTC (link)
	[Amused.] Maybe because you should listen? But hey, I rarely listen to my own advice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-02-03 10:17 pm UTC (link)
	It's just a weird escalation of unsolicited advice. Do I look tired lately or what is it? [ Kind of self-conscious about this now. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2014-02-04 06:36 am UTC (link)
	We just care, Reid. [Cheerfully said, but ain't it the truth.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-02-04 09:17 am UTC (link)
	I know... and I appreciate that. [ He'd just like to know why now. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2014-02-04 02:59 pm UTC (link)
	[Maybe they feel something, a foreshadowing they just can't explain.] If you change your mind on me being your delivery girl for anything today, let me know? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-02-05 06:06 pm UTC (link)
	[ Dun-dun-DUN. ] I will, thank you. It's very, uhm... nice of you to offer. [ Smile! ] Be careful out there, okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	needmymp3 2014-02-05 06:12 pm UTC (link)
	I will. I kinda like it. [Total honesty.] See ya, Reid! (Reply to this) (Parent)
