doctor spencer reid from criminal minds ♡︎ https://twitter.com/splashstarry/status/1298970322729947137?s=21
i was drawn to spencer mostly because he was the first character that ever really reminded me of me. it always felt like he understood me/what i was going through, and i started finding a lot of comfort in him !! to this day, i love him because he makes me feel safe https://twitter.com/splashstarry/status/1298970325204586496
there is a market for being smart, even if it outcasts you from your friends. it’s okay to be nerdy and to take out your problems through research and knowledge. it’s okay to be “annoying” because knowledge can be power. https://twitter.com/splashstarry/status/1298970328773861376
warmth. safety. hot coffee by sunset. newspapers and old books. the smells of vanilla and cinnamon. cardigans. so, so many songs. ray bradbury stories. the list goes on. https://twitter.com/splashstarry/status/1298970333609947137
i think about this often. warm and woodsy smells— spices like cinnamon and anise and sweetness like vanilla, but woodsy/earthiness like sandalwood or patchouli. essentially, he would smell like what autumn feels like and i stand by that. https://twitter.com/splashstarry/status/1298970338458513408
i genuinely just want to thank him. without spencer, i don’t think i’d ever have embraced the fact that i am a nerd. i used to water it down for the sake of being “normal”, but he always reminded me that it’s okay to be who i am. he deserves all the thanks in the world for that. https://twitter.com/splashstarry/status/1298970350764650496
end of thread. if you read this, congrats. i rlly just wanted to have a soft spencer moment on the tl right now because i’ve been in a Not Good mood and he always makes me 
so y’know. i luv one (1) doctor reid
