Impulsiveanswer's LJ Author's Summary: Aaron and Jack move in with Spencer when renovations drive them out of their new house. Will it be a disaster…or a beginning?
Review: I finished this fic only a few moments ago since I am travelling and forgot to transfer my bookmarks. But still, I loved this fic.
What I loved most here is the beautifully written interactions between Jack and Spencer. The author has brilliantly shown the progression of Jack and Spencer's relationship, from skirting around each other to Spencer being Jack's other parent.
It's amazing how impulsiveanswer managed to use a common theme (Aaron's house is being renovated, Spencer asks them to move in) and make it into an extraordinary story. Jack, Spencer and Aaron are kept in character. The characters and the story itself is grounded and stayed true to its Criminal Minds roots while making it into a completely different story.
It was domestic fluff all around. <3 Much love to go around.
