“The number of pathogens passed during a handshake is staggering. It's actually safer to kiss.”

Spencer says as the both of you are sat at a crime scene, he was wearing his FBI bullet proof vest and his sunglasses, reading through a book he had with him and you were nearby, fixing your own sunglasses and minding your own business.

Spencer likes to talk a lot about random things when you’re at crime scenes and meant to be working, but some of the things he says can be really random.

“Did you know that earwax is actually a type of sweat?” He looks up from his book to look at you as he was going to begin to spout off some random facts again.

“Oh! Did you know the tongue is covered in about 8,000 taste-buds, each containing up to 100 cells helping you taste your food?” He exclaims almost like a giddy child.

You nodded as you clearly just wanted him to be quiet and get to work instead of spouting off random facts that nobody cares about, the urge to tell him to shut up was on the tip of your tongue, but you couldn’t tell him that.

“Spread across their lifetime, most people spend an average of one whole year sitting on the toilet, did you know that?!” He looks at you again before having to shut up as Hotch came to tell the both of you to get back onto the scene and stop talking nonsense.

Yet you obeyed your boss’ orders and the both of you went back onto the crime scene to continue your investigation.

You were thankful that Hotch was able to save you from getting another earful of pointless facts courtesy of Dr. Spencer Reid.
