If we haven't linked to your post, it's because there wasn't enough information in the header for us to spot it or make a link. Particularly for fanfiction, we need a title and pairing at least. Anything else is a bonus – spoilers and ratings especially. Please leave a comment if you think we should have linked to something, and we'll add it or pick it up for the next newsletter. However, the newsletters will not be edited to include any changes to your post that happen more than a week after we've posted the newsletter.

jstkillingtime is looking for a specific kidnapped!Reid fic where Reid is held captive for a long time, molested and videotaped for the team to watch; the unsub moves him when the team gets too close and makes Reid do a video to say goodbye to the team.
