Oh, this is just lovely ♥ This was by far my favorite episode of this season, and that little bit at the end, that image of JJ in her office... awww. Beautiful.

Beautiful and very interesting. And (thank you, YouTube) it really is a lovely piece of music.

Thanks so much! And I'm glad you found (and enjoy) the song.

When I watched this ep I remember distinctly hoping you would take something in hand for it and you did not disappoint. Both my brother and cousin are Autistic and it's an adage in my family that everyone is on the spectrum and if you live with it you can see it in everyone you know. So the fact that you applied it to everyone on the team...it was just so moving to read someone's work who gets that.

Also--minor note: Neverland Piano Variation in Blue is one of my favorite songs and incidentally I'm watching Finding Neverland right now. Excellent choice!

Wow. This was amazing to read. Thank you so much. It means so much to me that you thought of me when this episode aired and hoped I would write about it. I actually studied autism in college and had a professor that said to neurotypical people, "That's your autism coming out," whenever they showed a certain quirk. So I definitely understand, to a point and am familiar with a few people with autism, though none closely. I'm so glad to know this didn't touch a nerve and instead, touched your heart.

I love Piano Variation in Blue. I hadn't heard it in a while and had to find it again when I had Reid searching for a song to play for Sammy. <3
