Why this must be read: This is another Gibbs gut is telling him something is wrong stories, but what makes it stand apart from the rest is its quiet strength. Here Gibbs is a man of action, but it's a different kind of action than we're accustomed to - he's more tender, softer but he's still very much our awesomely gruff, uncommunicative Gibbs. This story has a wonderfully gentle rhythm to it throughout. It's just comforting. Make yourself a cup of hot chocolate and go curl up with this marvelous piece of fan fiction.
Tony glances up to meet his eyes just once, and the bad feeling that has been lurking in Gibbs’ gut intensifies and coalesces.
Those hazel eyes give lie to everything else about him.
Unfortunately, Gibbs recognizes the look. He’s seen it in the mirror often enough. Tony is on the verge of defeat, of giving up and letting the darkness that lurks on the edges of civilization overwhelm him. They see things like this case all the time in the course of their work, but it looks like Tony is reaching the end of his ability to cope with it.
While Gibbs’ own despair had been the result of one single, life-shattering event, he suspects that Tony’s is an accumulation of things – loving and losing Jeanne, Jenny’s death, his exile afloat, and then finally Ziva’s anger and distrust which was coupled with months of worrying about her.
The idea of Tony being broken is suddenly the most repugnant thing Gibbs can imagine. He won’t allow it to happen. Not on his watch.
