A Real Man by dietpunkfics (PG-13)

[sinfulslasher]

Hello again! I'm Gaby aka sinfulslasher, snagging the keys to the NCIS van once again. As my LJ username suggests, I love slash. I'm also a Tony gal. So, my recs tend to be of the slashy Tony persuasion (most notably with Gibbs) but I'll try to add enough other recs to hopefully make everyone happy. :)

The first rec is, of course, Tony-centric but it's het. *gasps* At least the het is hinted at, there's no explicit sex, only an established canon het relationship. This is a character study if I ever saw one, and an amazing one to boot. This is "my" Tony the way I see him, and I love the story to pieces for tackling a very serious and all too realistic topic and portraying Tony in character all the way through.

This isn't an easy read because of the raised issues, so please heed the warnings, but it's too good not to give it a try. Trust me!

Fandom: NCIS
Pairing: Tony/Wendy
Length: 1366 words
Author on LJ: dietpunkfics
Author website/archives: on AO3
Why this must be read: As I already said above, the story tackles a very serious topic in a very realistic manner and gives us an amazing insight into the character of Tony DiNozzo.

Thanks, Gaby.

Hi there, stranger! :)

Glad you liked my rec! I know it's not easy to read but I heart it so much for Tony's portrayal. So I'm thrilled you're seconding my rec! \o/

You're back! (Abby hug) You read way more than me, obviously. Looking forward to your recs. And still love your icon. Had the library back when I was a kid hung thi up, maybe I would have hit the books harder. LOL.

[sinfulslasher]

Aww, thank you! :)

I think if the library had this pic up back in the day, I would've spent all my time staring at it instead of reading. *g*

And I think there may be a gen story or two being recced soon that you might (hopefully) enjoy. Or even a story you might be...familiar with... *shifty*
