Game
It's loud. It's loud and noisy and everything smells like sweat and popcorn. He gave up reading a long time ago (even for him it was impossible to read about Middle Earth with hundreds, if not thousands, of people standing up and screaming in his ear once ever 2 seconds), and was instead watching the game.
Yes, Spencer Reid was watching a basketball game.
He was only there for Morgan who had vehemently insisted that the basketball game virgin experience the great game in action. Not simply on the TV, because, really, Derek had argued, where was the fun in that?
No. It had to be the real thing.
So there Dr. Spencer Reid was, sitting in a highly uncomfortable chair next to Derek Morgan, attempting to feign an interest in the actually pointless game.
He gave up.
"This game is pointless." he comments flatly. Huge, dark brown eyes stare incredulously at him.
"Basketball is not pointless, kid."
"Oh come on, Morgan! All they do is bounce a ball across a painted wood floor. The only substance to it is the shooting of the baskets themselves which isn't even that difficult once you look at the physics of it all." he rushes. "Not to mention, it holds a striking resemblance to--"
"Kid." Morgan interrupts, "All it is is entertainment. Now lean back and enjoy." he says, grinning.
And Reid attempts to not think of the simple physics or it's relation to ancient Aztec games that involved sacrificing the winning team. Instead, he takes his partner's advice, leans back, watches, and half-enjoys the game...even if it is pointless.
