One of the common themes is protection. Morgan might feel a strong urge to protect Reid when Reid is scared, or vice versa. This can lead to some tender moments between them. Another theme is the discovery of new aspects of their personalities. The fear can make them act in ways that are different from their usual selves, and through this, the fanfiction can explore deeper levels of their characters. For instance, a scared Reid might show a more emotional side that Morgan has not seen before.
In a Reid x Morgan scared fanfiction, it could be Morgan who is scared. Perhaps they are trapped in a dark cellar with limited air supply. Morgan, who is usually so confident, starts to show fear. Reid, with his brilliant mind, quickly assesses the situation and tries to calm Morgan down. He starts talking about the facts, like how long they can survive, and what their team is doing to find them. This helps Morgan focus on survival rather than his fear.
One common theme is the professional respect they have for each other evolving into a more personal connection. Since they work closely in the show, fanfictions often build on that dynamic. Another theme is how they support each other during difficult cases. For example, Hotch might be there for Reid when he's struggling with a particularly disturbing case.
Well, a great fanfiction storyline could involve Reid and Morgan going undercover together. Maybe they have to infiltrate a criminal organization. Reid could use his knowledge of psychology to manipulate the criminals from the inside, while Morgan uses his combat skills to keep them safe. It could also be a story where they are dealing with the aftermath of a traumatic case that has affected them both in different ways, and they help each other heal.
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.
