Why I want to read it: Come on, it's Youka Nitta! I'm still angry that they stopped publishing "Embracing Love" in English! *irked*

Reader, suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself.

Fic rec: NCIS

"Soul Deep" by xanthe | Gibbs/DiNozzo | AU | Most people never touch another person's soul... but when a 20 year old Leroy Jethro Gibbs meets an 8 year old Tony DiNozzo, it sparks an event that links them forever. | 83.400 words

Gibbs took a step forward, and then another, peering into the swirling snow, trying to get a better view of the man in the distance. And as he walked, the man walked slowly towards him.

They met somewhere in the middle... and stopped. Gibbs found himself looking into a pair of green eyes that he remembered from a very long time ago.

“Tony?” he whispered, his warm breath clouding the cold air in front of him. “Is it you?”

Loved the fic. Inspired by Pullman's "His Dark Materials" and I just love what xanthe did with it. And the daemons she chose for the team were so, so cute!

So, this was the season finale...

( Breaking 80 )

So, to wrap up this season. I liked the first half better, when Jim and Callie were just flirting. The second half was... I don't know, I just didn't like the whole "will she/won't she divorce her husband" spiel. I don't like shipping in my shows. And it feels like the show... lost some of its quirkiness with it.
