Law and Order: Interdimensional Edition - Week Five

This was really the first time that Derek Morgan (the version that hadn't been on Vampire Island) had been in one of the classrooms. Oh, he'd visited Reid in his office a time or two, but that was about it. This, though... well, it felt both familiar and not. He liked it. Made him wonder if he shouldn't see about teaching more courses at Quantico.

"Profiling. I'm sure you've heard of it, good and bad. You've seen it in movies like metafor Silence of the Lambs, tv shows, that kind of thing. You've also probably heard about it in other ways. Racial profiling gets a lot of media attention. Now, I'm here to try and clear up some things, as well as to give you a crash course in behavioral science, which is the actual name for what we'll be talking about today."

"My name is Derek Morgan. I own the hardware store down in town (which is still hiring, by the way), and I also work for the FBI in the Behavioral Analysis Unit, also known as the BAU. Like in my username.

"What we do is provide a profile to help local law enforcement when they call us in. We assemble that profile from the information we have on the victim, the crime scene, and any communication we might have with the unsub themself. An unsub, or unknown subject, is the term we use because it makes no assumptions. And that's one of the most important lessons: don't assume anything. Look at any body of evidence with as clean a slate as you can and keep your process objective."

He leaned against the desk.

"Now, to do this job, you need to have time spent with criminals, behavioral psychology degrees, all that, but today I'm going to cover one of the most basic parts of behavioral science: victimology."

He started handing out sheets of papers with information printed on the top and lines for writing on the bottom, as well as the back.

"Victimology is a term with a lot of meanings and a lot of uses. Today, we're going to be talking about victimology in terms of a criminal investigation. We're going to be looking at the victim, considering details of the crime scene and the victim themselves, to try and tell us something about the unsub who killed them. You're set up into three teams; split yourself up accordingly and discuss it and at the end of class, you're going to give us some information on the person who might have done this. I'll let you know how you did."

"They were in the way of something?" Tony guessed.

"Or maybe they saw something," Dinah said, eyebrows up. "Although, beating to death- I'd think the murderer was angry."

Tony nodded. "Do we know where his parents were?"

"No. But I think that's the first thing to find out," Dinah admitted. "Just to rule them out..." She shook her head, needing a break from the thoughts in her mind. "Okay. Time out. And tell me what it's like to be a cover-boy." She grinned.

"I wasn't on the cover!" Tony protested. "We just got a text headline."

"Oh, please. I saw that layout!" Dinah leaned over and poked him in the ribs, grinning. "If that wasn't geared toward the Lee Nicholas Forever Fan Club, I don't know who the target audience was. And I think the writer had a crush on youuu."

"No poking!" Tony protested. "No way. He was totally into Alicia, though."

"Who needs to step off. Seriously. Wench," Dinah said, folding her arms. "Want me to pull her hair for you?"

"Nah," Tony said. "I'm pretty sure Lee's not into her. But thanks!" His smile was genuine. "It's good to have you on my side."

"Always, duh." Dinah bumped his shoulder and grinned. "So it's all still good? Yaaaay."

"Still good," Tony agreed. "The fame hasn't even gone to my head yet."

"And you haven't had any public fights," Dinah teased. "And you're not in Oh No They Didn't or that Fug Me site yet. I checked."

"Oh, God," Tony groaned. "I'm totally going to have to pay attention to what I wear in New York now."

Dinah cackled. "Wear the wrong polo shirt and millions of people will see what you look like when you don't do laundry, dude."

"Let Lee's people buy you some New York Only Clothes?" Dinah suggested, and grinned. "Keep them there so they're always shiny? Or just give up now?"

"Hey, I'm gay, I can dress well if I want!" Tony protested. "I'll figure something out."

Dinah patted him on the shoulder consolingly. "That's the spirit. Never give up. Never surrender. Never let the fashionistas pull you down."

"That's beautiful," Tony said. "It should be a Hallmark card."
