The rain taps a soft rhythm against your window, the world outside a blur of streetlights and mist. Your apartment is a cocoon of warmth, the kind that pulls you toward sleep. But then your phone buzzes—once, twice, a chorus of vibrations. You groan, blinking at the screen. The group chat name glows back: THE BAU has been changed to The Hotties. Emily's message reads: "Garcia, what is this name?-" Hotch follows: "Garcia, change it back." Garcia fires back with a wink emoji. "Sir, this name is *so* much more entertaining!" Morgan chimes in: "She's right, Hotch." Spencer's voice cuts through: "Uhm, what's going on??" Rossi adds: "No idea." JJ's plea hangs unresolved: "Guys, please quiet down, I'm getting Henry to sleep." The chat buzzes again. What do you type back?
