Crowning Moment of Awesome Meme

Everyone has done something awesome in their lives, whether it was being a total badass and saving the world or just talking down a schoolyard bully, and apparently, someone recorded that awesome moment (or wrote it down or made a comic about it or what have you). Now that awesome moment has been posted everywhere, and characters get to react.

Rules!

1. Find an instance of your character being awesome in canon.
2. Post links to videos, embed pictures, copy and paste passages, so on and so forth, as many as you like. People can pick and choose what they react to, or react to all of it.
3. Please include trigger warnings if they're needed and don't put more than one large picture (or two small ones) in a single post, and instead link if you want to add more.
4. Tag around and let's get this party started!

[She listens and...sort of gets it, through the technical babble. It's probably one of those things that comes with living with Reid all the time now. She can't think of anything to say, however, so she just settles with a] Oh.

This is why I like you, Spencer. You don't talk to me like I'm a kid. [Most adults would've dumbed it down immediately or tried to skirt around the sexual abuse part of it. She's glad he doesn't do that.]

But is she going to be okay now? They can't fix that, can they? Her brain I mean.

[Excellent, she's learning. If she comes to understand 90% of what he says all the time, then he has done his job as a teacher well.]

Well, I understand what it's like for adults to disregard you for your age. That, and it'd be strange to treat you like a child when you're really not. [Even though he was smarter than any of the adults around him, they all dismissed him as a kid and dumbed things down immensely. And, well, she's really not a child. Not anymore.]

She's... well, actually, she's doing pretty well, considering. No, her brain will never be repaired, but she's now in a state facility. She was originally in a maximum security state hospital, but I and that man I was with--SSA David Rossi--pushed for a more thorough evaluation of her mental state, and now she's in minimum security. She's allowed to keep her dolls, some local businesses farm out seamstress work to her, and overall, I think she's happier now than she was before. I visit her sometimes, just to check on her, and she's usually smiling and carrying around her dolls.

[She's actually one of those unsubs that have stuck in his mind over the years, but partially because she's actually a success story, for once. It's not every day that you save the victims, incarcerate a pedophile, and put a mentally ill woman in a place where she can thrive and safely interact with others.]

[Mio smiles a little, both at his admission that he wouldn't disregard her because of her age, and for hearing how well the woman's doing.] That's good. I'm happy for her.

Not all the stories end that well though, do they. [Though the longer she spends around Reid the more interested she's becoming in this profiling thing herself. Too bad she's pretty sure Japan doesn't have anything like the BAU.]

[Oh God, Reid has a protege. God help us all.

His smile fades a little bit, but not completely. After so long in the business, he's seen a lot, and he's learned how to face it all without being bogged down completely.]

No. No, they don't. Usually, there's a higher body count, and many more lives are ruined. Unsubs commit suicide, victims die or are raped or mutilated, cases go unsolved, and there's really nothing we can do besides do our best to make sure there aren't any more victims. Sometimes, our best isn't good enough and people get hurt, and we have to live with that. [Believe him. He can recite the name of each and every person he has failed to save.

At the same time, he can recite the name of each and every person he has saved.]

But even though it's hard, I really can't imagine doing anything else.

[She will be the very best, like no one ever waaass]

Because you're still doing your best and making a difference. [Mio hesitates a moment and fidgets a little]

Can you teach me more? About profiling, and things like that? [This request will come up in-game eventually too. Some day.]

[leftinbasketforfbi]

[To catch them is her real test, to jail them is her caaauuuuse]

Profiling? [He arches an eyebrow, but then he smiles. Well, he guesses she's already prepared to deal with the heavy stuff she'd hear about.] Sure, if you want me to. But I should probably warn you, that once you get used to doing it, it's not something you can really turn off.
