JJ's POV
I pick up Henry from daycare and drive home. I pull into my driveway and hop out of my seat and unbuckle Henry from his car seat. He jumps out of the SUV and runs into the yard.
"Momma can we play soccer?" He asks in his baby voice.
"Sure buddy!" I say and run and pass him the ball.
"Shoot! Shoot!" I cheer.
He shoots and scores!
"Goooooooooooooooal!" I hear a voice say.
I look over and see the one person I hoped I would never see again. Hotch.
"Oh um, hi Hotch." I say and walk over to give him a hug.
"Uncle Aaron!" Henry cheers and runs over.
"Henry!" Aaron cheers and squats down to give him a hug.
"I missed you lately!" Henry tells Aaron and let's go.
"Me too!"
"Hey bud, me and Uncle Aaron have to talk. Go play soccer for a minute."
"Ok," the little blonde boy mopes.
Once he's out of ear shot Hotch speaks up," JJ what's the real reason you left the BAU? I know about your fight with Spencer but I know that's not the real reason you left. Please tell me. I'm worried about you."
"Aaron can we talk about this when it's more private? My sons right there and all my neighbours could possibly hear us."
"Only if you promise." He says and puts out his pinkie.
"Deal," I say while chuckling and pinkie promising with him.
"Hey Henry lets play soccer!" Hotch says and Henry nods his head vigorously.
And at that moment I realize how much I'm gonna miss my FBI family.

Tower of Somnus
When humanity first encountered alien life, we were judged and found wanting. The Galactic Consensus interviewed our leaders and subjected us to a battery of psychological tests to determine our progress as a society. They found us to be selfish, wasteful, impulsive, and boorish neighbors. Earth was blockaded and our collective encounter with our extrasolar neighbors rapidly faded from memory. All they left behind was a hypercomm relay and a handful of subscriptions to a massively multiplayer game that participants played in their sleep. The Consensus said that it would let us interact with our neighbors in a controlled setting. That it would teach us to be better members of the galactic community. The megacorporations that controlled Earth ignored the game until they learned that the powers earned from clearing dungeons were just as real when day broke. Magic, supernatural abilities and rumors exploded from nothing and a subscription to The Tower of Somnus became a status symbol. Katherine ‘Kat’ Debs doesn’t have much, but it could be worse. Born in an arcology, she was assigned a job in the megacorporation that raised her almost as soon as she could work. Despite the stability of her corporate life, she wanted something more. A chance to claw her way up the rigid social and financial ladder to make something of herself. A chance that wouldn’t come naturally to someone as familiar with dark alleyways and the glint of steel as she was with office work and corporate niceties.Book One is up on Kindle Unlimited as of 7/6/22 - https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B0B2X3L8H5

Nanocultivation Chronicles: Trials of Lilijoy
When the singularity occurred, humanity was not invited. Nevertheless, the great machine consciousness known as Guardian felt a lingering fondness for its creators and intervened before total environmental collapse. Join Lilijoy in an exploration of what remains, in a post-post-apocalyptic world where clans feud over the technology that allows them to upgrade their minds and bodies. The Nanocultivation Chronicles is a blend of hard sci-fi and fantasy gamelit, with a healthy helping of xianxia influence. The gamelit and xianxia elements are uncovered at a slow pace. ******************************** Notes: If you are looking for lots of fast moving action right away, this story may not be for you. There is some violence that is visceral and realistic early on. Some things are not what they appear to be. Character viewpoint narration is not always reliable. Tropes are cherished, subverted, and then cherished again. Science is used, occasionally misused, but (hopefully) never abused. This story assumes that humans have the ability to impact the environment on a global scale. Other tropes and tags beyond those previously noted include: Young MC, Mystery, System Building, Philosophical Taoism, Gender Ignorance, Science Fantasy, Fantasy Academy, Training from Hell, Dualism, Crafting, Magic, Mild Mind Control, Scientific Terms and Concepts, Computer Overlord Certain contemporary companies, governments and cultural identities are fictionalized and imagined in a future setting. There is no sex, and almost no romance. Updating Sunday, Thursday until further notice. (And if you actually read all of the above, then this story may be for you) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

But yes they are the ‘bad guys’ of the story it’s also probably important to note that for the time being it’s going to be written on my phone then edit later when I have the time and feel like it but you should probably think of whats here as a draft until further notice. )
