He wanted more time with her, to savor her final moments. To be able to fully inhale the victorious scent of his ultimate power and her helplessness.

Set post season 14 and JJ's confession. Where do JJ, Will, and Reid go from here? I do my best to respect all three characters.

She would tell these women that it's not their fault. What makes her so different from them? Well...JJ is different from all those other women—to him—she's Jennifer Jareau. JJ. She was special to him, she would always hold a special place in Spencer's heart—whether it'd be platonic or romantic was up for debate. Warning for domestic abuse and violence. Eventual Jeid.
