13.07 Dust and Bones

Spotlight Saturday - OC Edition

(I didn’t do Fic Back Friday yesterday so I’m making this week’s list longer!)

@dontshootmespence has loads of wonderful Criminal Minds OCs. Check out Article of Faith and Between the Pages for two very different but equally compelling characters. AoF is great for all you folks who love a dark or vigilante reader and BtP with hit your fluff buttons (and if you’re like me and time travel is also the jammiest of your jams you’ll feel like it was written for you).

@dontshootmespence​ also wrote Broken Homes Fix Broken Hearts with @veroinnumera​ where Juliet finds love with the BAU’s resident hero Morgan and  it will melt your heart.

All of @rt8815​‘s stories feature the amazing McKinley and her relationship with Spencer. Musical references and feels abound!

@stunudo‘s BAU Prep School is filled with OCs. Each student has a rich backstory and genuine personality. Also check out One of the Six which follows, Bethany Devereaux, one of the six agents killed by Adrian Bale before the start of the series.

Something Like a Star by @recollins​ features the BAU’s new intern helping to solve cases from the show while juggling a dark past, complicated family and a few secrets. This is a new favourite!

Luke’s sister Lucy is the main character in February Nights by the brilliant @original-criminal-fanfics​. She flees to her brother after a terrible experience but finds love and family. This one is an epic.

@itsmeedee​ has a bumper list of OC fics. Case fics Suppressed and The Liaison and also a CM/Grey’s Anatomy Crossover called Hello, Again.

@cherrybombs-and-rabbitholes​ has two OC fics over on AO3 you HAVE to check out. White Rabbit features an escapee from a cult approaching Spencer for help. It will have you on the edge of your seat and the unsubs are really creepy. Leap of Faith is just as compelling but in a completely different way as Spencer bonds with an tries to help someone who has been through as much pain as he has. Will get you in the feels. 

And @remember-me-forever-silent-angel​ retells classic episodes AND original case fics with her OC Allyson Reid, Spencer’s twin sister. Ally also gets her own named episode and just like on the show its gripping and intense and you’ll need to lie down afterwards. All the episodes can be found here. 

And just to be cheeky you can check out my OC fics! Kiss Me Hard Before You Go and it’s sequel features Grace Owens, an interpol agent as she and Spencer deal with life post imprisonment and Perfect Recall is about Lise Gillespie who can’t forget anything, ever. She meets Luke Alvez when she is the sole witness to an abduction.

Please feel free to add you own fave OC fics or drop me an ask with a rec.
