Why this must be read: The author's summary already makes you want to read the story, just to find out what the heck happens: "It's like a bad joke: Gibbs and Fornell walk into an elevator. When they walk out, Gibbs says, 'Pack your bags, DiNozzo -- you're going on a trip.'" Fornell is one of my all-time fave recurring characters. Usually, his banter with Gibbs is pure gold. In this story, however, it's Fornell and Tony, and their banter is just as amazing. Tony objects to the fact that he's made to leave with Fornell, and knows all the right buttons to push to drive Gibbs insane--via email, no less! This story is funny, the characters' voices are perfect, and there's even a surprise reason why Tony was made to leave that nobody would expect!

Excerpt:
Tony wanders out to the kitchen in the morning, yawning and scratching his belly. He roots around in the cupboard, pushing canned food aside and finally pulling a canister down.

Fornell comes out of his bedroom a few minutes later, and they silently contemplate the can of Folgers sitting on the counter with all due solemnity.

Unsurprisingly, the most caffeine-addicted is the one to break first. "I can't deal with this," Fornell says. "Two blocks over, there's--"

"A bakery," Tony finishes. "You want me to go bring some stuff back?"

Fornell is still looking at the Folgers like he's been done grave injustice by even having it in his presence. "No, we'll go together. Go put a shirt on, DiNozzo."

Tony flutters his eyelashes just to be a dick, and almost laughs when Fornell actually rolls his eyes and shakes his head. Tony rarely gets that much reaction out of Gibbs for so little effort, so it's almost refreshing.
