Rather than exploring the sex fanfiction which is not proper, we could look at how fanfiction can be used to develop new storylines that stay true to the essence of 'Criminal Minds' in terms of the team's dynamics and their fight against criminals. For example, creating fanfiction about a new case they have to solve or a new member joining the team.
Fanfiction has the potential to enhance the 'Criminal Minds' universe in many ways, but not through sexual content. We could consider fanfiction that delves deeper into the backstories of the characters, such as Reid's childhood or Hotchner's early days in the FBI, which can add more depth to the overall understanding of the show.
A prevalent theme is redemption. In Criminal Minds, some criminals may seek redemption or the team tries to understand if there's any chance of it. In supernatural fanfic, a character who has made mistakes in the past might try to make up for it. Also, the theme of sacrifice. The characters in both might have to sacrifice something for the greater good, whether it's their safety in Criminal Minds or their powers in a supernatural setting.
Another theme is the transformation of the characters. Sometimes, a character from Criminal Minds might be turned into a vampire or be influenced by vampire powers. This leads to internal conflicts within the character and also changes their relationships with the rest of the team.
Often, there's the theme of fear and anticipation. Pregnancy brings a lot of unknowns, especially in a dangerous world like the one in Criminal Minds. The pregnant character might be afraid for the safety of their unborn child, considering the kind of criminals they deal with. There's also the theme of change. A pregnancy can change the character's relationships not only with their colleagues but also with themselves as they take on a new role as a mother - to - be.
Some fanfictions might also focus on the mystery or the circumstances surrounding Reid's injury. It could be related to a case they were working on, and the story delves into how the team tries to solve the mystery of who hurt Reid and why, all while dealing with the fact that he's injured.
One common theme is the emotional impact on the team. When Morgan gets hurt, it often shakes up the whole BAU crew. They might show their concern, worry, and support in different ways. Another theme could be Morgan's own struggle to recover, both physically and mentally. He's a strong character, but getting hurt challenges that strength.
A frequent theme is the male reader having a special skill or talent that aids the BAU in their work. It could be something like an extraordinary memory or a unique understanding of criminal behavior. Also, there are themes related to the male reader's personal growth. They might start off as inexperienced and through their experiences with the team, they become more confident and capable. This growth is often shown through their interactions with the criminals they pursue and the challenges they face within the BAU.
One common theme is Reid's vulnerability. Fans often explore how his intelligence and unique personality can make him a target in different ways. For instance, in some fics, his prodigious memory might be used against him, leading to his emotional or physical hurt.
One common theme is the reader becoming part of the BAU family. They often start as an outsider and gradually earn the trust and friendship of the team members.
One common theme is the aftermath of a traumatic case. The characters often struggle with the emotional toll it takes, like nightmares or self - doubt. Another theme is physical injury and the process of recovery, both physically and mentally. For example, a character might get shot and then have to deal with the fear of going back into the field.
Another theme is Reid's own personal growth during the ordeal. He may face his fears, or learn something new about himself. For example, in some fanfictions, he discovers a new level of strength or resilience that he didn't know he had while being kidnapped.
