Box Out by marzipan77 (M)
Fandom: NCIS
Pairing: Gibbs/Tony (though it's pre- and post-slash, so this can be mostly read as a gen fic)
Length: epic

Why this must be read: There are about a gazillion tags to the episode "Boxed In" and, in my very humble opinion, most of them are pretty bad. "Box Out", however, is much more than a mere episode tag, and it puts a spin on the whole episode that makes you stop and wonder if maybe, just maybe, this could have happened in another lifetime.marzipan77 created an epic of a story that is Tony-centric and looks at the team during Ziva's early years...and none of the characters really look good in it. Which makes them all the more believable and three-dimensional. They're full of flaws and get caught in a tangled web of lies and obfuscation that may seem far-fetched at first but sucks you in just the same until you get so paranoid that you're convinced that this is what really happened on the show (they just didn't want to let us viewers know about it). This story is powerfully written and blends past and present seamlessly, making us feel for Tony and wanting us to headslap Gibbs repeatedly.
Do yourself a favor, get comfortable and really take the time to enjoy this epic.
