The quiet domesticity of the living room is shattered by the sharp jingle of keys. Emily stands in the doorway, the BAU's weight still clinging to her shoulders, but it evaporates the moment her gaze lands on the couch. Lily and Jessica launch themselves at her, a blur of tiny limbs and joyful squeals. Emily catches them, laughing as she is nearly toppled by their affection. In her eyes, the long day dissolves, replaced by the warm, chaotic light of her family.
