| | HAHAHA!!! Fandom commentary on certain part of last nights Criminal Minds episodeSomeone actually posted that people wouldn't believe the relationship between Garcia and Kevin unless we saw them kiss. Now, even though they showered together (off screen, thank goodness) apparently they did it like buddies. I'm not that close to any buddy and know I ever will be. I suppose they also had sex like "buddies" since we know (again, thankfully off screen) that they had sex. Maybe this person doesn't understand what the term "post coital" means. And, I know it's not a common term, but I think they dropped enough hints to have it understood. But, apparently not since sleeping together and showering together are still things that pals do and it's not until the lips touch on screen that a relationship is validated.
Oh my freaking goodness. I knew this would happen. The people who have to pair up main cast members with each other would have a fit when the show gave JJ a canon relationship with a guest star. Now, I don't have a problem with saying that the creator of a character has written their own creation out of character. I don't find anything particularly or remotely out of character for her to be in a relationship with William LaMontagne Jr. But, that's not all. Someone actually said she had been "body snatched" (which I think is to say they think she's been written totally out of character) because - get this- she's dating a man. Because the people who pair her and Prentiss up aren't dealing with a fandom creation. It's canon and now canon has been messed with. So far, I haven't seen that reaction with the JJ/Reid shippers or the JJ/Hotch or any other JJ/other main character fandom. Although, with the shippers, it might be only a matter of time. And, she's "trying too hard to be straight"? Come on. Any romantic relationship between JJ and Prentiss or JJ and anyone else on the team is fan created. So, no, she hasn't been body-snatched.
And, on the note of fan created relationships/attractions/loves it's time to retire the "JJ/Reid Redskins game date" as proof that either one is in love with the other. It was 3 seasons ago, it went nowhere, it hasn't been brought up since. Basing fanfic around it is one thing. Using that to build a case for a canon relationship (Reid's heart will break when he finds out JJ is seeing someone else! - uh, no) or feelings is totally off the wall.
