...Yeah, I've sort of noticed. But consequences sometimes do. [Like not getting completely blown to pieces when a crazy guy set off a bomb because he had the forethought to run like hell. Or like not getting stabbed in the face when another crazy guy goes at you with a knife because you have a gun and like four other FBI agents with guns. Or like not getting shot because you thought to 'pretend' to have a migraine to confuse the hell out of the unsub long enough to smack him in the face with a pipe (okay okay that wasn't a measure to protect himself as much as it was just him being in pain but IT COUNTS). Seriously, when one considers the number of times he almost got mutilated or killed versus the number of times he's gotten shot or infected with anthrax or addicted to drugs, the ratio's pretty good.]
But it's... it's not a big deal, alright? It's just regular BAU things. Everyone's had their share of bad luck. I mean, I'm not the only one. [Reid can be a little stubborn about keeping his problems to himself. Which might be why his nightmares are so awful and Flora wants to die.]
