Rose just sat awkwardly. Talking to any living thing was strange. Explaining herself was stranger.
JJ decided she would be the one to maybe get this girl talking. Maybe.
"So why did you go for the degrees that you did? She asked
"Well, the literature based ones are because I rather have an affinity for writing' Rose said quickly, frowning at the thought that she was going to have to continue speaking. 'And the ones having to do with humans are namely because I wanted to come here' she said, frowning deeper at having to reveal this.
As soon as she was done with these forced sentences she immediately shrank back down.
Reid wished she would keep talking. He liked the sound of her voice.
Huh? Why couldn't he stop thinking like this? He was positively entranced by this new person. She was so interesting. He'd honestly never seen anything like her before, and especially not in the professional dojo that was the BAU. Again he just stared.
It was awkward for a moment as they all sat in silence having no idea what to say, seeing as Rose obviously wasn't going to. JJ's phone rang and she got up and walked off to go answer it.
A moment later she returned with a rather annoyed yet somehow relieved look on her face.
'Sorry guys, we have a case' she said jointly to them.
They immediately rose and walked back toward the meeting room. So much for being in there with no case to handle.
The girl was the last to join the line of people walking to the room. She followed them numbly, all the while staring at the back of Reid's head.
She knew about him. He was the genius.
