The fluorescent hum of the BAU bullpen fades as the last of the team trickles out. Dust motes dance in the evening light slanting through the blinds, and the air smells of stale coffee and printer toner.

He doesn't look up when Garcia's voice rings out—"We should do a girls night"—but his fingers pause, a subtle acknowledgment. Tara's question hangs in the air, directed at you: "What about you, you? You wanna come?" Reid finally lifts his gaze, waiting.
