Paradigm Shift Series by rebecca (NC17)

Hi, I'm [livejournal.com profile] rositamia and I get to rec my Tony! Or in other words, for people not as obsessed as me, NCIS! It's my first time reccing here and I am soooo excited. And scared half to death! I love everyone on the show; it's truly an ensemble show for me. Except I have an inordinate amount of love for Tony. Huuuuge! So I am very much a Gibbs/DiNozzo slasher. But I know that not everyone else is, so I am going to rec some stories that showcase the other characters too. Maybe even some het! < gasp > But I also want to show the wonder that is a well-written Gibbs/DiNozzo, so you'll be seeing some (well, okay, maybe a lot) of those.

Fandom: NCIS
Pairing: Jethro Gibbs/Tony DiNozzo
Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] blueraccoon
Author Website: rebecca's realm
Why this must be read: I am *really* bad at this part; usually all I can come up with is because "it's good!", but I will definitely try to articulate *why* it's good.
It's a long, plotty story that I really enjoyed reading. I like the look inside Gibbs' head. And inside Tony's. It seems true to the characters. I like the slow, careful maneuvering between Tony and Gibbs; that too seems so *them*. And the dialogue *sounds* right to me. I like how cases are threaded through the stories; makes it more "realistic" to me. I really like Tony's backstory. And I liked the descriptive language the author used.

I think you articulated quite well! Why any reader should read this and you definitely hooked me into it, which I thank you! I look forward to all the rest of the month!

Wow, thanks for the rec.
I really like the show and I've been a die-hard slasher for years, but no matter how often I've tried, Gibbs/DiNozzo never seemed to work for me.
This time, they did.

Loved it.
