[ It's now or never and although he was hoping that some time would push that towards now rather than never, Reid really doesn't feel like he's ready. He feels raw and exhausted and although he's pushed himself to go out and get some clothes that aren't borrowed from Karev's closet, he's so not in a place where public announcements are possible.

But he has to. Now or never. Movements dull, he reaches for the communicator. ]

...░m back. [ A stretch of static-y silence. ] I'm so░▒y.

	Thanks, but I didn't tell you for sympathy. I just wanted you to know I understand. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Hesitation. ] It's not really the same, is it? [ Close though. Really close. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It's not that different either, is it? We're both trained to stop things like that from happening and they still happen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-05-04 05:22 pm UTC (link)
	I suppose. [ Pause. ] I should've seen this coming. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's how I felt too. Maybe that's why I had the dreams for so long afterward. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ Dreams... ] Nightmares? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2014-05-05 09:04 pm UTC (link)
	[He nods.] Nightmares about Jess and the fire for awhile. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-05-06 11:23 am UTC (link)
	[ He nods, hesitant. ] ...I haven't slept yet. Not really. [ Dozing off but never really getting to a point of dreams. ] Nightmares aren't exactly something new though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[He knows the sleepless nights too.] Have you eaten? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-05-06 05:24 pm UTC (link)
	A little. [ Don't baby him, Sam. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[Does profiler want his rattle? But he seems happy enough with "a little."] I wonder how they decide who gets the sneak peek on more memories. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-05-06 05:28 pm UTC (link)
	[ You realize he still has his gun, right. ] Makes you wonder, huh? Or... how they pick how much we experience. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2014-05-06 06:22 pm UTC (link)
	Or if it's all planned or it actually is random and accidental. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	If we had more data we could check for statistical significance but that's one thing that's hard to come by around here... [ Speaking of. ] How has the Investigation Team managed? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2014-05-11 10:53 pm UTC (link)
	Pretty well. You left things organized. Kitty wanted us pushing harder on disappearances after you...you know. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-05-12 10:10 pm UTC (link)
	We should've worked that angle harder from the beginning... maybe it wasn't such a bad thing. Puts things in perspective, you know? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2014-05-14 03:49 am UTC (link)
	You're glad you left? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-05-14 09:55 pm UTC (link)
	I didn't say that... [ He so isn't. ] Just trying to look at the bright side, I suppose. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2014-05-19 02:05 pm UTC (link)
	Sure. How are things back home? Not just...the last part, but everything? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-05-19 04:07 pm UTC (link)
	It's... fine, I guess. We lost a co-worker to the Interpol. JJ got married. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2014-05-23 03:53 am UTC (link)
	If you're going to lose a co-worker that's probably one of the better ways to do it. [His just die.] JJ is a friend? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-05-23 12:59 pm UTC (link)
	She used to be our communications liaison, but she recently joined the profiler team. [ A beat. ] She's one of my best friends. I'm the godfather to her son. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tallerthanthou 2014-05-25 06:27 pm UTC (link)
	A godfather? That's great. It sounds like some things are going well? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thisiscalm 2014-05-26 12:56 pm UTC (link)
	[ He nods, accepting it as truth with slight reluctance. Some things are going well. They're just not going well for him. ] Henry is four years old now, so it's not that new. [ Because babies and marriage don't always go together, or even in that order. ] He dressed up as me last Halloween. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
