And They Were Quarantined

Prompt two from way back in March or April. At least I think this was a prompt? The original idea was angsty, but I barely managed to write this drivel, so the angst idea would’ve been even worse. Had fun writing the draft, kinda gave up on editing... Also, I stole a bunch of dialogue from my other OTP.

As always, avoiding post s10 canon like the plague, so, I don’t know late s10 if it was set in 2020?

Also on FF and AO3

Word count: 809

“McCovid, you’re alive!” Tony’s jaw tensed as his paler than usual co-worker appeared on the screen, exhaustion and misery written all over his face. “How are you? Does Delilah have one of those nurse’s outfits, bet that would get you back to health in no time. Feel free to send me a picture, of Delilah, not you,” he rambled. Shifting slightly, he continued to fake a smile and a lightness he did not feel.

McGee attempted to roll his eyes and coughed briefly. “We’re fine.”

“Yeah, I can tell, there’s like half an inch of color on your left cheek. Definitely looking better than last time I saw you, if you hadn’t blinked when you did I’d’ve called Ducky.”

McGee stared at him blankly, a little too blankly. “What do you want?”

“Nothing, just checking in on my quarantined teammates. All of them, don’t think you’re getting special attention for possibly infecting the whole team.”

“You’re going to make me pay for you having to quarantine all by yourself, aren’t you?”

He scoffed, feeling some light-heartedness seeping into the situation. “I am an adult, Tim, I can survive a few weeks by myself, besides-“ The sound of cutlery hitting the floor drew his attention away from the screen. He glared.

“What was that?” McGee said more lively than he had sounded for days.

Tony faced the laptop and raised his eyebrows. “Hmm? Oh, that was.” He glanced away again briefly. “My cat.”

McGee narrowed his eyes. “You don’t have a cat.”

He turned his attention to the kitchen, just in time to see another pair of eyes narrowing at him. “Found her scratching all panicky at the door this morning, looking disheveled, crazy matted hair-“

A wet kitchen towel hit him square in the face. By the time he had placed the towel on the coffee table she had slid onto the couch next to him with the speed and grace of a cat. Her piercing eyes made him forget the gravity of the situation, sending a tingle down his spine.

“Hello, Tim,” she said, sights firmly trained on Tony.

“Ziva? Why are you…” McGee’s voice sounded faint and confused. “You’re not supposed to…” He sighed in defeat, then coughed a few times.

Ziva turned towards the laptop. “Oh, Tony dropped his phone in the bath so we decided to quarantine together.”

McGee blinked slowly, and scrunched up his face. “I…you were taking a bath together?”

She chuckled and held Tony’s gaze again. “Trust me, when I share a bath with someone there is no need for.” She licked her lips as her gaze flicked to his mouth. “Technological distractions.”

“That…what?”

With great effort, Tony turned his attention back to his ill co-worker. At the bewildered look on McGee’s face, he explained, “We were on the phone when I dropped it in the water, Ziva panicked and rushed over here-“

“I did not panic.” She jabbed his chest with a finger. “You started coughing and then the line went dead, I did what any good partner would do.”

He raised his eyebrows. “Break quarantine instead of calling me on my landline?”

She opened and closed her mouth, then glared at him. “I did not panic.”

“I saw your face, Ziva,” he egged her on, as if they hadn’t already had this conversation hours ago.

“When I panic, I make this face.” She stared at him blankly.

The video call all but forgotten, he grinned, pretended she hadn’t looked ready to annihilate Death itself when she had burst through his front door earlier, and deadpanned, “That was the face.”

“You did not see that face,” she insisted, a gleam in her eyes.

“I saw that face.” He smiled warmly, pleased at his 10 AM decision to give in to self-indulgence and soak in the tub while sipping leftover wine. And while choking on the wine when Ziva made him laugh over the phone hadn’t been part of the plan, given the outcome, he’d gladly do it all over again. Tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, he said, “You didn’t bring a hair tie?”

She looked him up and down, a sly smile appearing on her lips. “I didn’t bring anything.”

The laptop’s speaker crackled. “I feel nauseated.”

Tony watched McGee become even paler. “Try eating something, maybe that’ll settle your stomach.”

McGee glared back at him.

“Do you even have any food, other than what we had for lunch?” Ziva glanced towards the kitchen, knowing full well the only thing left in the fridge was alcohol.

“If you end up cannibalizing each other I’m not dealing with the crime scene,”

Tony moved closer to Ziva, ignoring his partner’s comment. “I’m sure I’ll find a way to.” He licked, then bit, his bottom lip. “Satisfy your appetite.”

“I’m gonna be sick,” McGee said, right before the screen went black.

JEMIZZY

Who’s the best gift giver? Do they go in on gifts or do it separately?  Hmmm they’re all pretty basic lmao but when Jack tries to be romantic he can get really into the gifts. They all insist on giving gifts separately though.

Sleeping arrangements: Do they push the beds together? Who takes all of the blankets in bed? Who’s practically draped over the others? Oh well heyyy they canonically have one bed! Jack and Izzy usually fight over the blankets and Izzy likes to roll herself up into a blanket burrito. They only drape themselves over each other when they’re high and tangled up in each other - otherwise, they’re pretty solid about that. 

Who is always in the middle in triad cases? Oh gosh I think it’s Izzy?

How do date nights look like? Sitting at home watching movies playing rock music and getting high lmao. Since they’re more public now they go to the bar and restaurants, and always split the desserts in the end bc they’re corny af. 

Do any members get jealous? How do they act when they do? Of course they do lmao. Jack is the one who’s more obnoxious about it, but they all get jealous 

Who asked who out? How was the first date(s)? Well...this is already canon too lmao 

Who brings home stray pets and convinces the others to keep them? Emma does this surprisingly. Jack immediately thought it was Izzy and she was #offended.  

Who are the reckless ones that make Bad Decisions? Who are the sensible ones who follow after them to make sure they don’t die? lmao they’re all reckless no one in this group is really sensible so I’m surprised they’re actually functioning as human beings. 

Who’s the one who remembers everyone’s favorite orders at cafes/restaurants?  Emma and Izzy are pretty good at remembering parts of everyone’s favorite orders, so together they’re pretty bomb at this.

Would/do they have kids? Who are the Responsible Parents, who are the Cool Parents™ to the polywogs? They’ll definitely have kids! Jack is the dork parent, and Emma and Izzy kind of switch between responsible and cool - Izzy is the one who’s usually more Cool, but Jack and Emma can be pushovers or tricked by their kids so Izzy will roll her eyes, go, “You guys are so dumb” and scold their kid.

In your Lawyer Opinion(TM), how do you think Laurel felt about law school and the various subjects she would've had to study?

she probably loved and hated family law because when she did divorce her parents were going through it. and with law you have to memorise a lot of cases for exams. so she probably hated that. but was also very good at it because she had good memory. 

criminal law was her fave, tho, because she got to talk about the morality of different crimes and she could argue with her male classmates who said things like how most people cried rape or other dumb things like that. (and yes I have heard my classmates say that before in law school.)

she probably found commercial law very interesting, which is why she was seriously considering taking the corporate job. she’s good at maths, so she was into economics and stuff like that. 

generally tho I think laurel is a big nerd, so she found the reading okay and interesting at times. so in other words the total opposite of me :P 

honesty hour - ask me anything

[ticosorgana]

I haven't watched this week's episode yet but alternatively: Jacqueline Carlyle as a polyamorous bisexual/pansexual

while this works better with canon and is still wonderful and I am 7474747377373743% in favour of polyamorous jacqueline carlyle i personally headcanon her as a lesbian so strongly shdhhdjdj

PROMPT: TONY AND ZIVA VISIT A PANDA

Also on FF and AO3

Finishing his sketch of the dead petty officer, he looked up to see whether his teammates were close to wrapping up. Gibbs had rushed off earlier after a phone call, McGee was interviewing the zookeepers, and Ziva was… Where was Ziva?

He spotted her looking into the nearest enclosure, a wide smile on her face that spread to her eyes. Curiosity got the better of him and he approached her, a slow smile building on his own lips.

“What has you so merry at a murder scene, Officer David?”

Never taking her eyes of the black and white animal, she chuckled and nodded. “It reminds me of you.”

Tilting his head, he glanced at the giant panda that was casually leaning back against a tree, chewing through a pile of bamboo, not the least bit bothered by the corpse laying twenty feet away.

“Strong and good looking,” he suggested, placing his forearms on the fence.

Another chuckle. “A messy eater.”

He huffed. The panda stood up, bamboo scraps falling from its furry belly, and turned its back towards them.

From the corner of his eye he watched Ziva face him, gaze sliding down his body, shamelessly lingering on his backside. When she stepped into his personal space, he turned towards her, eagerly awaiting whatever flirty comment would accompany her wide grin and sparkling eyes.

“And a hairy butt.”

Narrowing his eyes at her own backside as she sauntered off, he considered his odds of getting lucky—or staying alive, for that matter—if he were to drop his pants and tell her to use her investigative skills to get her facts straight.

tiva fanfiction author recommendations plz I need some good tiva to read

OKAY SO

This has been sitting in my inbox for a couple of days because I had to think SO HARD about my favorite authors and I was sure I would forget some of them. I started reading fanfiction almost ten years ago, so a lot of the titles and names have been lost in my memory by now. There are some more recent stories (which the authors are active) and the ones I get back to reread, so I’ll list those. Some works are still in progress. Here are some of my favorite tiva stories in no particular order:

Christmas Meeting by @beatrixacs [M, 368,073 word count, in progress]

Christmas 2015. Prague, Czech Republic. An unexpected meeting between two former co-workers after more than two years from their parting in Israel that will make them realize that their feelings towards each other are stronger than before. But will they do anything about it? And what does the future look like for them? AU Season 13.

Kissing Deal by @beatrixacs [M, 247,815 word count, complete]

Tony and Ziva are posing as a married couple in a hotel for a week to keep an eye on another married couple that is involved in their last case and to find some evidence against them. As a part of marital necessities they make a deal about kisses. Will they finally find their way to each other thanks to it?

a crawl to cross the distance by @benditlikepress [M, 6,258 word count, complete]

Tony and Ziva’s first date ended up happening 15 years after they first met, 5 years and 7 months after their daughter was born, and just over a month after they were reunited for good.

leave before the lights come on by @benditlikepress [M, 9,049 word count, complete]

The night before Ziva is assigned to NCIS, she crosses paths with one member of the team in a bar. Set between Kill Ari Pt 2 and Silver War.

That We May Forgive by @justkindaoverhereobsessing [G, 12,875 word count, complete]

Ziva's second pregnancy is nothing like her first (makes a comparison between Tali’s pregnancy and a second child in the DiNozzo family)

We Are an Ocean by @justkindaoverhereobsessing [M, 120,164 word count, in progress]

The first time they sleep together, it's easy. It makes sense, partners transitioning to friends and maybe friends with benefits. Letting emotions in, though? That might be a different story (tiva sleeping together and the repercussions of it throughout the episodes)

Heat wave by jelenamichel [M, 24,685 word count, complete]

What was it they said about excessive heat having an effect on a person's ability to think clearly? A heat wave in DC brings the tension between two agents to boiling point. 

Famiglia by jelenamichel [T, 83,903 word count, complete]

When DiNozzo Senior's health takes a hit Tony finds out about long-kept secrets and lies. His life begins to change as his two families collide, and he battles with who he wants to be versus the man he seems destined to become.

I See You by @storywriter30 [T, 8,491 word count, complete] 

And suddenly, it is the Fall of 2009 and he is seeing her for the first time again. All of her strength, all of her scars, all of their history, lay bare in front of him (Tony finds Ziva is alive in Paris).

The Liaison by @hundan [E, 28,470 word count, in progress]

Some days it's hard to remember why it is you do your job, this was highly evident today for Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo. When he left Gibbs, his boss, in the motherland to take a overseas deployment to Israel he thought the whole thing would be an experience of a lifetime. Maybe he was wrong, but maybe he was right. AU

The Past Forgotten by @hundan [T, 75,315 word count, complete] 

"I'm sorry, I don't know you" Tony said, simply. Like that one single comment hadn't ripped her heart out and stomped all over it. She was his partner, she's not meant to be forgotten by him of all people.

Hoping for Happiness by @jaelke421 [M, 265,887 word count, complete]

Tiva romance. Chronicles their transition from friends to something more. Departs canon after Child's Play. Warning: Mention of rape and torture. 

Cold Tiles and Warm Air by @factoffictionwriter [M, 3,658 word count, complete]

But staring? It just wasn't her thing. Touching, kissing, stroking… these were all forms of intimacy she could get behind. But leave her to look - just look, not touch - and she typically grew antsy. Or worse: Bored. Tag 11x02. Bitter Sweet.

Family Second by @factoffictionwriter [M, 26,865 word count, complete]

Alternate ep 13x24. The team gets ahold of Ziva before the mortar attack. Follows along with the storyline of the episode for the most part. A true to character AU of sorts.

holding on (and letting go) by @thewintersoldierdisaster [G, 1,322 word count, complete]

Tony and Ziva are reunited again. Set in S17.

Cool Hand Luke by @thewintersoldierdisaster [G, 1,959 word count, complete]

Tony and Tali spend Ziva's birthday in Paris.

Of Plenty by Strawberry Shortcake123 [M, 28,748 word count, complete]

While celebrating their reinstatement as NCIS agents, Tony and Ziva drink too much and go too far. They decide to put the night behind them- until Ziva finds out that she is pregnant.

Treasure Map by @belletylers [T, 11,285 word count, complete]

"Tony had always considered himself fairly good at finding people who were missing. Especially if those people were Ziva." Tony and Tali go to Paris, searching for Ziva after the events of 13x24.

A Helping Hand by @loudlooks [M, 16,928 word count, complete]

Ziva comes up with a creative solution to help Tony, who refuses to take painkillers after injuring both arms.

Something I Left Behind by @aksannyi [E, 5,894 word count, complete]

This is a missing scene from Past, Present, Future, which explains how Tali came to be. Yes, the M rating is there for a reason. This is angsty, given the nature of the episode it comes from.

Under Pressure by @aksannyi [E, 4,338 word count, complete]

She didn't need to kiss him then, but she did, and suddenly they were no longer pretending. Tony and Ziva learn a lot about each other while they're under cover. Tag to 3x08, Under Covers. 

Treading Water by Mechabeira [T, 191,744 word count, complete]

"You can still swim, can't you? You're going to have to tow her in, DiNozzo. We aren't going to let her just tread water."

There are so so so many more great authors out there, so I’ll list their FF.net and AO3 pages (the ones I can remember): Zays, jae-vous, brightblue, Anonymous033, Strawberry Shortcake123, AliyahNCIS, quotelation (@quotelation), McGeekle (@mcgeekle), LittleSammy, pro-bee (@pro-bee), xoxonessie (@xoxonessie), alacarton (@ahtlolevad-fics) and MANY OTHERS THAT I SURELY FORGOT (for that I’m sorry, but I tried my best).

Please feel free to fangirl with me about all those stories (haha I’m always opened to that) and to click in their accounts to see more great ones!! I just linked some I like most, but there are authors who wrote about 20-50 tiva stories with the same quality I linked it here. Be sure to check their profiles out!!

ALSO IMPORTANT TIP

From someone who loves tiva fanfiction, the works about it are scattered throughout more than a decade, so there’s A LOT (a lot, no joke) of good fanfiction both on FF.net and AO3. Some of the authors are still active on Tumblr, and if you like someone’s type of posts, try to ask them if they wrote something (what I love here is that most people active on the fandom eventually turn into writers) or even if they haven’t I’m sure they would recommend some great ones!

I hope I could help you somehow, and I’m sure Anthony DiNozzo and Ziva David will still have a lot of new authors to cherish them, their story is not over yet. 

thanks, anon!! xoxo Sofia

“What's your opinion on Shakespeare?”

I read Macbeth :P we didn't study him in school, though.

did you like him? shakespeare, I mean?

[kienava]

don't worry about it @anonymous033 c:

i feel like we need to talk about fearne ordering milk and whiskey at breakfast. everything she does feels so calculated to be maximally upsetting, and yet it's just like. her vibe. she's just like this. she steals indiscriminately, talks to the snakes in her staff, proposes murder as a solution to speed bump sized problems, and orders milk with fucking whiskey. is she's just a total normie in the fae realm? or is everyone there also just like "what's going on." anyway fearne is a personification of a little c: (threatening) and i would love to study her

[greyro-problems]

One time per YEAR???

I mean, I haven’t really kept a record of my crushes/squishes/whatever-feelings… but yeah, about once a year for the last few years (including celebrity “crushes”):D why, is that unusual? How often do you get crushes/squishes/whatever? (This goes out to all of you, btw, which is why I’m replying publicly^^ how often do you get crushes?)
