Duplicity by elbeeinthewild, Artist hinky_hippo Link to Story Link to Artwork Category: GEN Pairing: N/A Rating: (none provided) Length: 31,600 Warnings/Spoilers: Spoilers for Aliyah & Truth or Consequences.

Summary: In the wake of events surrounding Michael Rivkin’s death and Ziva’s return to Israel, almost everyone has something to hide. Some do so out of misplaced guilt. Some also have noble reasons for doing so and others…well, not so much.

Mentions of events around 9/11 which could be upsetting. Summary: After the sudden end to his relationship with Wendy, someone from Tony's past resurfaces in an attempt to help and hopefully get Tony back in his life. Ethan's willing to work for it if there's a chance Tony can forgive him.

Promises by cutsycat, Artist red_pink_dots Link to Story Link to Artwork Category: SLASH Pairing: Past Anthony DiNozzo/Jethro Gibbs Rating: T Length: 5260 Warnings/Spoilers: This is not a happy Gibbs/DiNozzo story and is told from Tony's POV.

Leroy Jethro Gibbs was a Marine working his way up the food chain and trying to stay under the radar. Shannon Fielding was writing lovely letters to her best friend giving the appearance of a long term relationship to keep him safe. When Jethro writes to her about his new friend, she is excited to meet him. The three form an intense friendship, the boys even gift her with a simple band of gold nearly identical to their own, and Shannon agrees to carry their child. Until the accident. The murder of the two people most precious to them. That's when it all falls apart. Years later, when Tony tackles his husband in an alley in Baltimore, he punches him square in the jaw before dragging him into the station. How the hell will they handle this? And why the hell did Gibbs offer Tony a job, after ten years of silence?
