Friday 26th July
Reid 01:30
Magic trick?
Aaron Hotchner 01:36
What?
Reid 01:37
I’ll teach you a magic trick
Aaron Hotchner 01:38
Physics magic?
Reid 01:39
If you want ;)
Aaron Hotchner 01:43
Did you just send me a winking face emoji?
Reid 01:44
I was trying to be up to date
01:46
Sorry, I’m bored
01:49
You work too much
Aaron Hotchner 01:50
So I’ve heard
Reid 01:51
Come back to bed
Aaron Hotchner 01:55
Reid, I’m think you’ve maybe been texting the wrong number. HOTCH.
Reid 01:59
Hotch? Oh god, I’m so sorry. Your name is right before Austin. She’s at work and I meant to text her.
02:01
I’m so sorry.
02:01
Please don’t fire me.
Aaron Hotchner 02:03
I’m not going to fire you. Just don’t send me anymore winking faces. It’s disturbing
Reid 02:04
Yes, sir. Sorry, sir.
Aaron Hotchner 02:05
Relax, Reid
02:05
Enjoy your leave ;)
Reid 02:06
Thank you, sir.
02:09
You’re right. It is disturbing. Good night.
Wednesday 31st July
Aaron Hotchner 20:03
Can you email me your notes on the Burbank case?
Reid 20:04
I have them hand written. Should I type them up?
Aaron Hotchner 20:05
No. It’s not urgent. Drop them in my office tomorrow morning.
Monday 5th August
Reid 13:31
On our way back from the crime scene. Nothing of note.
Aaron Hotchner 13:36
Start the geo profile.
Thursday 8th August
Aaron Hotchner 18:59
Casey in custody. Start packing up.
Reid 19:05
Okay.
Monday 19th August
Reid 09:04
Could you help me prepare for my firearms test? It’s on Friday.
Aaron Hotchner 09:05
Sure. Tomorrow at 7am?
Reid 09:05
Great. Thanks.
Tuesday 3rd September
Aaron Hotchner 17:23
Do you need a lift to Morgan’s birthday thing?
Reid 18:19
I guess so. I was sort of planning on contracting the plague that night.
Aaron Hotchner 18:54
I’ll be leaving early
Reid 18:55
Great. Yes, I’d like a lift.
Friday 6th September
Reid 11:11
Thanks for dropping me home last night
Aaron Hotchner 11:11
No problem. Was it as bad as you expected?
Reid 11:14
Not at all. The company was good and I got to leave early.
Aaron Hotchner 11:15
That’s one of the benefits of having a young child – always good for an excuse to leave. It’s nice to go out as a team, though.
Reid 11:17 Unsent
I just enjoyed talking to you
11:17
You’re right. You’re all family to me.
Aaron Hotchner 11:18
And family can be really annoying.
11:18
Jack’s match is starting. See you on Monday.
Reid 11:19
I wish him lots of luck and goals, I guess!
Thursday 12th September
Reid 15:46
I think I’ve got a lead on a cold case. Poughkeepsie 1999.
Aaron Hotchner 15:46
What are you thinking?
Reid 15:47
I think I’ve found a pattern in the abduction sites.
Aaron Hotchner 15:48
Bring it up to my office in an hour and we’ll hash it out.
Reid 15:48
Great. I’ll bring coffee.
Aaron Hotchner 15:50
Can you get me a slice of carrot cake if you’re going to your usual place?
Reid 15:50
Of course.
Wednesday 25th September
Aaron Hotchner 22:03
There’s a documentary on the History Channel about Houdini
Reid 22:06
I know. I’m watching it. Fascinating.
Aaron Hotchner 22:06
I thought you’d like it.
Monday 7th October
Reid 11:30
Garcia saw something about a new processor thingy and she’s preparing a budget proposal
Aaron Hotchner 11:30
What?
Reid 11:31
Garcia wants a new toy and she’s looking for you to be her sugar daddy
11:33
Or you know, the Bureau but you’re the face
Aaron Hotchner 11:33
That’s disturbing.
Reid 11:35
Don’t say I didn’t warn you
Friday 11th October
Aaron Hotchner 18:34
I think I just bought an Intel Core i7-6700K
Reid 18:34
Mazel Tov
Sunday 13th October
Aaron Hotchner 14:37
Can you and JJ go interview the victim’s mother?
Reid 14:38
Sure, I’ll get the address from the sheriff.
Saturday 19th October
Aaron Hotchner 10:23
What would happen if the world stopped spinning?
10:23
Jack wants to know.
Reid 10:24
Is it stopping suddenly or gradually?
Aaron Hotchner 10:27
He wants to know both answers
Reid 10:29
Suddenly: the atmosphere would continue to spin and everything not attached to bedrock would be swept out into the atmosphere.
10:30
Gradually: Everywhere on the Earth would have day or night for half a year.
Aaron Hotchner 10:30
Thank you
Wednesday 30st October
Aaron Hotchner 23:38
We’re heading back to the hotel now
Reid 23:47
I just want to finish plotting some points
Aaron Hotchner 23:48
The map’s not going anywhere. Go get some sleep. That’s an order.
Thursday 31st October
Reid 00:16
Fine, I’m leaving.
Aaron Hotchner 00:16
You finished, didn’t you?
Reid 00:17
By the time I read your text, yes.
Aaron Hotchner 00:18
Of course. I’m sure you didn’t ignore my text until you finished. I’ll make sure to have an extra coffee for you in the morning.
00:19
Happy Halloween, Spencer.
Reid 00:19
Happy Halloween!
Saturday 9th November
Aaron Hotchner 00:42
Ypu never showed mr magic
Reid 00:56
Hotch? Who’s Mr. Magic?
Aaron Hotchner 00:57
*Me
Reid 00:57
You’re Mr. Magic? Why?
Aaron Hotchner 00:59
What? No. U.
Reid 01:00
I’m Mr. Magic?
Aaron Hotchner 01:00
YES
01:01
Show me magic
Reid 01:02
Are you drunk?
Aaron Hotchner 01:03
YUp
Aaron Hotchner 01:05
Dave said I neeeded a drink. Then anpther
01:05
I need to mmeet someone for Xmas kisses. Dave said.
Reid 01:05
Are you home? Safe?
01:06 Unsent
I could do that
Aaron Hotchner 01:11
Yup. Do you need Xmas kisses?
01:15
Feel sick
Reid 01:20 Unsent
Are you offering? No he’s drunk, Spencer. You can’t ask that. Stop writing your thoughts in a text. It’s weird.
Drink some water
Aaron Hotchner 00:26
Done. Night.
Reid 01:27
Night, Hotch.
Sunday 10th November
Aaron Hotchner 10:03
I apologise for my behaviour last night.
Reid 10:04
Don’t worry about it. You were quite amusing.
Aaron Hotchner 11:05
Well, as long as I was entertaining.
11:05 Unsent
You never answered my question about kisses.
Aaron Hotchner 11:06
Enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Spencer Reid 11:07
You too.
Monday 11th November
Aaron Hotchner 15:24
There’s an ace of spades in between the glass panes of my window.
Reid 15:26
Curiouser and curiouser
Aaron Hotchner 15:27
:)
21:14
There’s one at the bottom of my paperwork too
Reid 21:20
Do you live at the office?
21:30
Sorry, was that rude. I just meant that the day ended about four hours ago.
Aaron Hotchner 21:31
I know.
21:35
I was finishing paperwork
21:36
And yes, sometimes I sleep on my couch
21:37
Jesus, I’m sorry Reid, I sound pathetic.
Reid 21:37
If I had a couch at my desk, I’d probably sleep there too sometimes
21:39
And now I got your last message and look really pathetic too
Aaron Hotchner 21:40
Yeah. We both should get out more.
Reid 21:41
I’ll make it a new year’s resolution
Aaron Hotchner 21:44
Good to start planning those a couple of months in advance.
Reid 21:47
I need time to adjust to new realities ;)
Aaron Hotchner 21:48
I thought we’d discussed winking faces
Reid 21:49
I’m still adjusting
Aaron Hotchner 21:50
I believe I’m meant to type LOL here. I definitely smirked.
Reid 21:52
Wait. This is too much. My worldview is rewriting itself. You smiled?
Aaron Hotchner 21:53
You’re hilarious. I never knew. And no, I smirked.
Reid 21:54
I’ll make you smile. Dimples and all, one day.
21:56 Unsent
I’m sorry that was inappropriate
Aaron Hotchner 21:56
My dimples are a myth. Leaving the office now. Night.
Reid 21:57
Night, Hotch.
Tuesday 19th November
Reid 08:13
I’m running half an hour late
Aaron Hotchner 08:17
Noted. No case. Don’t worry.
Saturday 23th November
Reid 02:00
Do you think that Freddy vs. Jason is a battle between the Id and the Ego?
Aaron Hotchner 02:01
I think it’s a movie with a ridiculous premise
Reid 02:01
Granted. But the Ego/Id thing?
Aaron Hotchner 02:02
So the Id wins?
Reid 02:03
Jason doesn’t win. Freddy’s not dead
Aaron Hotchner 02:04
Freddy can’t die. Neither can Jason. It’s a stupid movie.
Reid 02:04
Did I wake you up?
Aaron Hotchner 02:04
No. Why?
Reid 02:05
Your texts sound grumpy
Aaron Hotchner 02:06
I’m always grumpy.
02:07
I guess the Id does win if that what really motivates Jason. The Id is stronger than the ego.
Reid 02:07
You think Jason could also be representative of the ego?
Aaron Hotchner 02:08
Why are you using Freudian psychology to analyse crappy horror movies?
Reid 02:08
You think I should be referencing Jung?
Aaron Hotchner 02:09
For Freddy, yes.
Reid 02:11
I can’t sleep.
02:11
I wasn’t really expecting you to text back.
Aaron Hotchner 02:12
I know insomnia well.
Reid 02:13
We should start a club.
02:13
The Tired Horror Club or THC for short.
Aaron Hotchner 02:14
I don’t think THC is a good acronym
Reid 02:15
It’s an initialism not an acronym. The term is frequently misused.
02:15
Why not?
Aaron Hotchner 02:16
THC is the active chemical in cannabis, Reid
Reid 02:16
Oh. Yeah. Of course.
02:19
I only used dilaudid and heroin.
Aaron Hotchner 02:19
Jesus, Reid.
Reid 02:20
Sorry, I should go to sleep.
02:21
I’ve lost the filter between my brain and mouth.
02:21
I know we don’t mention my drug use but I know you know so...
Aaron Hotchner 02:25
I should have done more to help you.
Reid 02:25
I understand why you couldn’t.
Aaron Hotchner 02:26
My marital problems were insignificant compared to what you were going through.
Reid 02:26
That’s not true.
02:28
It’s in the past.
02:33
I’m going to bed now. You should too.
Aaron Hotchner 02:33
Night.
02:38
I like the idea of an insomniac club. If you ever can’t sleep, text me.
Reid 02:38
Likewise. Night.
Tuesday 26th November
Aaron Hotchner 23:49
How did it go?
Reid 23:53
Slowly. I got him to talk but it was like pulling teeth with tweezers.
Aaron Hotchner 23:54
That’s an image. It was quiet in the office without you today.
Reid 23:54
Are you insinuating that I talk too much?
Aaron Hotchner 23:54
No.
23:55
Though you do, frequently.
Reid 23:56
You wound me, sir.
Aaron Hotchner 23:57
I was kidding.
Reid 23:57
Ah, Aaron Hotchner, the infamous kidder.
23:57
How is Jack?
Aaron Hotchner 23:58
He’s great. Scored a goal at soccer practice today.
23:58
So how’s Austin?
Reid 23:59
I’m in Connecticut. You sent me on a prison interview here, remember?
Wednesday 27th November
Aaron Hotchner 00:00
Not senile yet, Reid. Austin your girlfriend.
Reid 00:04
Oh, yes. Not so much my girlfriend.
Aaron Hotchner 00:05
Sorry. I shouldn’t have mentioned it.
Reid 00:06
No, it’s fine really. It was always a casual thing.
Aaron Hotchner 00:09
I don’t really understand what that means.
Reid 00:09
Um, fuck buddies?
00:11
Sorry, not appropriate language to use with my boss
Aaron Hotchner 00:11
Definitely not.
Reid 00:11
Sorry
Aaron Hotchner 00:12
The work appropriate term is friends with benefits
Reid 00:13
I thought you said you didn’t understand?
00:13 Unsent
You want to be my friend with benefits?
Aaron Hotchner 00:14
Reid, I wear a suit and tie on the weekends and married my high school sweetheart. I have no clue about casual.
Reid 00:15
You wear a tie at the weekends?
Aaron Hotchner 00:15
No, not really. But it’s tempting.
Reid 00:16
It’s your security blanket
Aaron Hotchner 00:16
Not a child, Reid.
Reid 00:16
Mine’s my satchel
Aaron Hotchner 00:17
What is this? Show me yours I’ll show you mine.
Reid 00:17
Sure
Aaron Hotchner 00:18 Unsent
Want to move this to Skype and I’ll show you whatever you want
00:19
We both should go to sleep.
Reid 00:19
This conversation is getting bizarre
00:19
Goodnight Hotch
Aaron Hotchner 00:20
Night, Reid.
00:20
Safe flight home tomorrow.
00:20
Let me know when you land.
Thursday 28th November
Reid 07:56
I just landed. See you in the office in about an hour.
Aaron Hotchner 07:57
Don’t rush. Paperwork can wait.
Reid 08:04
I’ll pick up some lunch for us.
08:06
If you want.
Aaron Hotchner 08:06
Sounds great.
Saturday 7th December
Reid 00:07
Hotch, I’m really craving right now
Aaron Hotchner 00:10
I guess you don’t mean pizza
00:11
Sorry. I didn’t mean to be insensitive. What can I do?
Reid 00:13
You’re not going to fire me?
Aaron Hotchner 00:13
No, Spencer. What can I do?
00:27
Reid?
Reid 00:29
Can I call you?
Aaron Hotchner 00:29
Of course.
Monday 9th December
Aaron Hotchner 11:49
You want to go get some lunch?
Reid 11:50
Sure. Chinese?
Aaron Hotchner 11:51
Excellent. I’ll remember to order your fork.
Reid 11:51
Look out your window.
Aaron Hotchner 11:52
That is not an appropriate hand gesture for the office.
Reid 11:52
Get your coat, Hotch.
Friday 13th December
Aaron Hotchner 16:26
Would you like to get some dinner tonight?
Reid 16:26
Sure.
16:27
Are we celebrating Jason Voorhees Day?
Aaron Hotchner 16:28
Maybe I should clarify. Would you like to go out with me?
Reid 16:28
Okay. I figured you weren’t meaning we’d eat in your office.
Aaron Hotchner 16:30
I’m asking you on a date
Reid 16:39
Oh. Yes. I’d like to go on a date with you. A lot.
Aaron Hotchner 16:39
Good.
Reid 16:42
Was there really any doubt I was going to say yes?
Aaron Hotchner 16:43
There was a reason I texted you rather than asking you in person
Reid 16:43
Look out your window
Aaron Hotchner 16:43
I like it when you smile like that
Reid 16:44
You too. I knew your dimples weren’t a myth.
17:30
I’ll head home now. Are you picking me up?
Aaron Hotchner 17:30
Sounds good. I’ll come by in a couple of hours?
Reid 17:31
Perfect. I’m looking forward to our date/Jason day.
Aaron Hotchner 17:32
Me too.
Reid 22:08
I really enjoyed this evening
Aaron Hotchner 22:08
Me too.
Reid 22:14
Is it too soon to ask for a second date?
Aaron Hotchner 22:14
Definitely not.
22:14
Next Friday?
Reid 22:16
Great. Would you like to go to Midnight Madness at E Street?
22:16
Continue the horror movie theme.
Aaron Hotchner 22:17
Sounds good. Although at this rate our song will be the Monster Mash.
22:17
Dinner first?
Reid 22:18
I know that song! I could cook
Aaron Hotchner 22:18
You can cook?
Reid 22:19
Of course. It’s edible chemistry.
Aaron Hotchner 22:20
That description makes me nervous.
Reid 22:20
I can cook, Aaron.
Aaron Hotchner 22:23
I like it when you call me Aaron.
Reid 22:24
Oh. Good. I’ll keep that in mind.
Tuesday 24th December
Reid 06:43
Are you sure you still want me to come round this evening? I understand if you just want to spend it with Jack. And this is all very new so I don’t want to intrude.
Aaron Hotchner 07:00
I want you to come. Do you want to?
Reid 07:00
Yes.
Aaron Hotchner 07:01
Then that’s settled.
07:02
I’ve told Jack that we’re seeing each other.
Reid 07:03
Okay. Wow.
Aaron Hotchner 07:04
You were serious about us, right?
Reid 07:04
Yes. Very.
Aaron Hotchner 07:05
Good. See you later x
Reid 07:05
xxx
Friday 27th December
Reid 23:23
I miss you
Aaron Hotchner 23:24
I’m just down the hall
Reid 23:25
It’s not the same
Aaron Hotchner 23:25
I know. That was an invitation.
Reid 23:28
I’m sneaking out my door now.
Aaron Hotchner 23:28
Careful. Dave’s in the next room and he’s a light sleeper.
Reid 23:29
I’ll tiptoe.
Thursday 2nd January
Aaron Hotchner 21:58
What are you doing?
Reid 21:59
Reading. Wishing you were here.
Aaron Hotchner 21:59
This conference is mind numbingly boring.
Reid 22:00
I thought some of the talks sounded interesting. Didn’t you go to Gil Grissom’s talk on entomology?
Aaron Hotchner 22:01
Yes. Because you told me to. It was an hour and a half on bugs.
Reid 22:01
Well, yes. Not interesting?
Aaron Hotchner 22:02
I drew a picture of a man throwing himself from a twelve story building.
Reid 22:02
Flip book style?
Aaron Hotchner 22:03
Of course. I’ll show you when I get back.
Reid 22:03
I hope you’ll have lots to show me.
Aaron Hotchner 22:04
Oh yeah? You want to see everything I’ve got? ;)
Reid 22:04
Are we really doing this?
Aaron Hotchner 22:04
Depends what this is.
Reid 22:05
I believe the term is sexting.
Aaron Hotchner 22:06
What are you wearing, baby?
Reid 22:06
Oh God, Aaron.
22:07
Alright, fine. I’m wearing purple silk boxers.
Aaron Hotchner 22:07
You have silk boxers?
Reid 22:08
No! I just thought it was sexier that telling you I’m wearing your 2001 Triathlon T-shirt and Star Wars pyjama pants.
Aaron Hotchner 22:08
You’re wearing my clothes.
Reid 22:08
Is that weird? It smells like you. That’s weird.
Aaron Hotchner 22:09
Not weird. Sexy.
Reid 22:09
You’re such an alpha male. You. Mine. You Smell Mine.
Aaron Hotchner 22:09
Shut up, Reid.
Reid 22:10
Alright so what are you wearing?
Aaron Hotchner 22:10
Nothing but a smile :)
Reid 22:11
That is inappropriate since by my calculations you are at the formal dinner. Shouldn’t you be schmoozing and not texting me.
Aaron Hotchner 22:12
I’m schmoozed out for the night.
22:12
And I’ve got a hard on so I can’t get up from my seat right now.
Reid 22:13
Jesus, Aaron. Are you really going to rub one out right there?
Aaron Hotchner 22:13
No, but you are.
22:14
Are you touching yourself yet?
Reid 22:14
Yes. I’m stroking my cock just like you touch me. Tight grip, twisting my wrist.
Aaron Hotchner 22:15
That’s right. Get yourself all hard for me. Lube yourself up.
22:15
If I was there I’d be fingering myself open right now. Getting ready to ride you.
Reid 22:16
Oh shit, Aaron. Keep texting. God. I want to hear your voice.
Aaron Hotchner 22:17
I can get away with texting but I think the rest of the people around this table might notice that I’m getting you off if I phone you. It would distract them from their filet mignon.
22:18
I’m so open for you baby. Are you ready?
Reid 22:20
Yes. Aaron, fuck yes. I want to feel you around me. Use me. Fuck yourself on my cock.
Aaron Hotchner 22:20
God, yes. I’ll ride you so hard. I love having you inside me.
Reid 22:22
That’s it baby. I’m gripping your thighs. You’ll have bruises tomorrow. I know you love that. I’m fucking right up into you. I love the sounds you make.
Aaron Hotchner 22:24
That’s it baby. Are you close?
Reid 22:28
So close. I want to fill you up. I want you to imagine my come leaking out of you as you sit there in your fancy tuxedo. Fuck I bet you look hot. Imagine you’re dripping as you sit there talking to all those suits. Fuck, Aaron. Fuck.
Aaron Hotchner 22:28
Jesus, Spencer. I’m so hard now. Did you come?
Reid 22:28
I’m licking it off my fingers right now.
Aaron Hotchner 22:29
Fuck. Can I call you later? I should be able to escape in about an hour. Is that too late?
Reid 22:30
Not at all. Skype me. I want to see you. Watch you finger yourself open for me. Watch you come all over your nice white shirt.
Aaron Hotchner 22:31
I’ll call as soon as I can.
22:31
I’m also impressed by your ability to text and masturbate. Love you.
Reid 22:32
I’m a genius. Love you too.
Monday 13th January
Reid 09:31
You think we can convince the guy to ask Strauss up to demonstrate?
09:31
Go on, Erin! Lift with your knees. Shoulder your responsibilities. Nah, she’d probably just pass it off to you. I prefer you bending over to lift.
Derek Morgan 09:32
I think Hotch just smiled
Pretty Boy 09:33
Really? I’ll keep an eye out for four horsemen
Derek Morgan 09:33
Funny. I’m serious. He smiled
Pretty Boy 09:34
Hotch smiles, occasionally
Derek Morgan 09:34
Yeah if by occasionally you mean never
Reid 09:34
You’re freaking Morgan out
Aaron Hotchner 09:35
Why? I’m not doing anything. I’m listening to this gripping health and safety lecture
Reid 09:35
You smiled
Aaron Hotchner 09:36
You make gripping health and safety lectures funny
Derek Morgan 09:36
Now you’re blushing and Hotch is smiling again. Who you texting, pretty boy?
Pretty Boy 09:36
Well, it’s a long story. I was trying to text Austin...
Derek Morgan 09:36
Yeah?
Pretty Boy 09:37
But apparently I’m texting you right now
Emily the Badass 09:37
I think Hotch and Reid might be getting it on
Cheetobreath 09:37
Like hubba hubba?
Emily the Badass 09:37
Is there another kind?
Cheetobreath 09:38
You have a very vivid imagination
Emily the Badass 09:38
I’m serious. They’re texting each other and smiling and blushing
Cheetobreath 09:38
Wow. Just wow. Wait isn’t Reid texting Morgan?
Emily the Badass 09:39
Yeah but I think Morgan was texting him about Hotch
Cheetobreath 09:39
Threesome?
Emily the Badass 09:39
That deserves some deep consideration and probably clarification of participants but I’m going to say no.
Cheetobreath 09:40
Pity. It would really liven up this discussion on how to properly lift a box
