   Summary

   JJ had always used work and routines to help process her grief.

   JJ had also disobeyed Emily’s direct orders, and she realised that maybe she’d came back to work too soon after Will’s death.

   Emily hadn’t meant for her joke to go sideways. JJ hadn’t meant to snap when her feelings did a one eighty. Love was messy. It was messier when you’ve been yearning for each other subconsciously (or not) for twenty years.

   Angry jemily (or Emily) love confession, set during 18x05.
