Does Gibbs Watch Movies? by Starbucks Sue Rated: FRC - child safe starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 1] Featured Stories
Summary: Having seen the later episodes, two things in particular jumped out at me when I watched this again. The first is the way Gibbs was all enthusiactic over the plane, he made a lot of references to the move Air Force One and seemed quite excited at one point, this seemed really out of character for him as in latter episodes it's Tony who is the movie enthusiast. The second is Tony's behaviour. In this episode the team consists just of Gibbs and Tony and Tony acts in a very different manner here to when they have a third or fourth team member when he obviously feels that he's in competition with them. This short little drabble is my explanation of both of these points. This was bashed out pretty quickly and is not beta'd so all mistakes are my own!

A Long December by Starbucks Sue Rated: FRM - Mature starstarstarstarstar [Reviews - 5] Featured Stories
Summary: Summary: On a snowy December morning a body turns up in an alley in DC. Will Gibbs and his new Field Agent Anthony DiNozzo be able to solve the case before Christmas?
Spoilers: Although this is set pre-series there are spoilers for those who have not seen the series as information not known in the early seasons is used in this story. You will find the characters a little different than in the series as this is set two years prior to Yankee White and the relationships would naturally have evolved in that time.
This is a sequel to my previous first story 'Raining in Baltimore'
