Entry tags:
Come Open Your Eyes by luredin (PG-13 or FRT)
Fandom: CRIMINAL MINDS
Characters/Pairing: Aaron Hotchner/Spencer Reid
Length: 4772 words
Rating: PG-13 or FRT
Author Website: Author on AO3
Why this must be read: This fic isn't treading any new ground but luredin does such a lovely job of describing Hotch's eventual realization of his feelings for Reid that I go back to it over and over again. The writing is very descriptive and visual in nature so - for me at least - this story comes across as pictures rather than memorable phrases. The fact that the author lets us know the colours of things so often makes the visualization more immediate without being distracting or overly committed to a theme. Please note that for some reason the author has locked all of her AO3 entries so only registered site users can view her stories. Luckily, a quick Google search revealed a public posting of the fic here on LJ as well. Both links are provided below.
