Unbelievable! I didn't think Gibbs was capable of stringing that many words together. As for McGee, little Timmy needs good luck in his assets. He's in for a rude awakening. Thanks

Great chapter. I forgot how intense this story is. Thanks

Thanks for writing

It's been a while since I last read this story. Gibbs ran away from Ducky because he couldn't and doesn't want to face the truth. Gibbs never answered the hard questions, like why he treated Tony the way he does, why he won't tell him he's proud of him. Funny enough Gibbs own thoughts about Tim and Kate actually answered that question. But he refuses to acknowledge it even to himself because it really shows him for the prejudice person he really is. His thoughts about Tony and him being born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Gibbs hated and resented the what he saw as the rich and privileged kids in his hometown. Hated the fact he had to help out in his dad's store. Hated them for having what he didn't. Always starting fights but always claiming they were the ones to start them. Gibbs wondered why he never saw the signs. Oh, he was them and used them to draw blood because he didn't want to see the abused child in Tony. Because he couldn't get passed the fact Tony came from a rich family. Nothing else mattered. Just like he resents McGee because he went to some fancy college while he had to join the Marines. But at least Tim came from a Navy family and his old man advanced to Admiral.

Realy liked the story. Ok I like most of your stories :)

You can spell, that's something.

There's a slight mistake here; "Ducky," being an 'affectionate' term for a *young girl* in the British Isles, would be slightly more insulting professionally than "Goosie", which is rather close to "Goose"/"Mother Goose" which was a *very* well-known WWII call-sign of a very proficient allied pilot/spy.

Wow ! Nicely done

Nicely written.

Was Spencer Rolston IV based on Spencer Reed ?

There were a lot of interesting dynamics in the story and so much potential for change and improvement for Tony. But, in the end, it seems nothing changed and canon proceeds apace. I admit, I don’t see the point.

I have enjoyed your stories so much, thank you for sharing them with us.

It's hard to believe that someone could be so deluded. Ziva! Really...superior driving skills? In what universe. Love tha Fornell took all her weapons and is trying to make her follow the law. Good luck with that. Really loving this story. Keep up the good work.

I like it.

Love it love it love it! I NEED MORE! Only problem is, I was looking through your stories (and they all look awesome), but I couldn't tell which one was the sequel. Could you let me know which it is so that I can jump back in without reading through all the others first? Thanks!

I can't even describe how perfect this is! This is every rant I've ever wanted to give them and more! It's incredibly thorough, and you also found the perfect way to demonstrate to them what it was like having them on a team (bad probies:P), even if they were too thick headed to realize it.

I applaud you!
