Come Live With Me by Ashleigh Anpilova, (G)
Fandom : NCIS
Pairing: Leroy Jethro Gibbs/Donald "Ducky" Mallard
Author on LJ: Nakeisha
Authors website on LJ: Partners Forever
Why this must be read:
Nakeisha is responsible for giving us the pairing of Gibbs/Ducky she wrote a slash manifesto on this particular pairing which gives us insight on why these two men belong together. The deep affection and relationship between these two
men which is observed in canon onscreen can be clearly transferred into slash fan fiction. Nakeisha shows this in her stories and as the pioneer of this slash pairing she deserves recognition.
"Come Live With Me" is a Valentine fic without the gooeyness and sugury sweetness that can be often found when writing about this particular event in the yearly calendar, her Gibbs and Ducky are spot on.
Along side the insight she has into the two characters as well as the bit players Nakeisha gives us a peak into how each character perceives Valentines Day while working at NCIS. There is a good dash of humour along side the romance and poignancy. And lovely poems courtesy of Christopher Marlowe and John Donne
“I hope the mailroom remembers to employ some extra staff tomorrow.” DiNozzo leaned back in his chair and grinned.
“Why, Tony?”
“Because, Ziva, it’s Valentine’s Day.”
“So?”
“So. I alone will get so many card and presents, they’ll need extra staff.”
“I don’t understand it.”
“Understand what, Ziva?”
“This obsession with commercialization. People spending money on flowers and sickly soft toys and perfume and cards. What is the point?”
