Well done on writing this story! Thank you for giving us a way better storyline and ending to that whole end of Season 7 beginning of 8 disappointing story wrap up. Sometimes I just feel like the NCIS writers have become lazy and figure since the show is number 1 - they don't have to bother writing good and exciting scripts. It makes me angry because it is such a waste of the NCIS cast's amazing acting abilities and a slap in the face of the fans who made the show a hit.

Liked this chapter- but couldn't figure out why Tony was in such a mood at the end- maybe we'll find out with what he wanted to talk to Ziva about from chpt 8. Glad to see a new one up! I really like this story and am always happy to see the next chpt.

Good story continuation.

just found this story today. I am hooked. Please update soon. Love it

Thanks for another grear chapter, looking forward to reading more soon. Julie xx

Good chapter, but kind of sad that they go right back to their usual BS following 8x01 after Ziva goes off to Miami & meets the latest Potential Love Interest Designed To Make Tony Jealous.

Sigh.

tnx for updating

Still liking this :)

Hope you continue soon!

I just found this story and this is a very interesting take on the months between Rule 51 and The Spider and the Fly. I like what you have done with Tony and Ziva so far and look forward to seeing how this will finish.

I had always seen this story when I was browsing around and for some reason I was reluctant to read it, I really don't know why. Now that I have read it I can't wait until the next chapter. I'm excited to read about Tony and Ziva's talk. Please update soon!

Ooo, you cheated on this one! But I liked the interaction between Jimmy and Ziva.

I like the direction you are taking this story. I'm very interested to read Ziva and Tony finally talking everything out and clearing the air. I look forward to your next update!

Oh, man! So not fair! Good chapter though; can't wait til the next one!

nice chapter- it's good to undestand that the team is really taking care of tony and ziva and they think of everything they might need

Great story - loving it. But realistically I think they wld have had to give Tony either some kind of walking knee brace or a wheelchair since it would be impossible to hold a crutch w/ yr hand in a sling, not to mention how unbelievably painful broken ribs are (I know from exp). I don't mean to nitpik I just like fics to be as realistic as poss. AWESOME STORY THO NONE THE LESS!
