Yeah, I know nothing about 80s music, I had to google search it. I've never even heard of half of the "most popular 80s bands". Ah well. That's probably a good thing.
*snort* I can see Rossi becoming so desperate to get the kids to like him that he resorts to trying to buy their affection. Books and games and new clothes and whatever. (Ha, maybe that's where some of their shitty fashion sense comes in- once Hotch sees the first batch of new clothes, he puts his foot down.)
Yeah, they wouldn't refer to each other by last names, but still, AWKWARD. Gonna be weird to write, "Derek said," instead of Morgan. Weird... *cringe*
Yeah, true crime would be good. Give him a reason to know stuff about profilers and such.
(I like the dog stuff, it works for me. Rossi can keep the dog with another friend who lives near his regular hunting area... oh man, can you see him trying to bring the kids along on a hunting trip in order to "bond"?)
In reference to my other comment- I really do think we should bring some canonical events over into the AUverse. Some things CLEARLY wouldn't work (you cannot torture twelve-year-old Reid and make him a drug addict, for instance, 'cause, y'know, no), but others could work in much better, such as the suggested Frank thing. What canonical events would you like to see incorporated into the story?
Also, how much of the kids backstory are we keeping, and how are we getting them away from their parents and into the foster care system? Reid's easy, as he probably should have been a foster kid once his dad left. But Prentiss? Her mom's an AMBASSADOR, that's not gonna be an easy sell. What do you think?
