I think this ended perfectly. I'm glad that they are a team again

if you were following the episodes, Abby was as bad as Tim and Ziva. maybe Ducky was the right person to do the dressdown

Ziva would never care about anyone but herself she wasn't loyal to ncis and she sure as hell didn't care bout tony she treated him like shit from the moment she was dumped on the team she was an abusive 2 faced bully!

This was awesome! I love how you wrote this and the emotion. I love Tony/Gibbs family stories! Amazing :D

Love it, a really good story

Jenny totally overstepped her bounds, and it's sad that it took learning about his childhood for Ziva to respect him, but I'm glad it ended the way it did. Good job, author *applause*

OF COURSE THEY HAVE NO RESPECT FOR THEIR PARENTS! Their parents ABUSED them, you arrogant *BLEEP*

I thought Ziva had learned her lesson after reading Tony's file... Ughhhhhh-_-

Also, she needs to learn that just because you MIGHT have gone through more than someone else, doesn't mean that their suffering was nothing.

I like what I'm seeing

The police have been notified but upon hearing who the child is they refuse to press charges. Shortly thereafter a court order was received and the child was released to the care of Dr. C. Recker.

Good to know the integrity of the system-_-

Also, I gotta say I'm impressed. This may be the first story I've read where Ziva started out without a heart and somehow managed to grow one. Usually she either had one and regrets her actions, or she never had one and will never back down from her arrogance. Kudos to you, author:)

Btw I hope you aren't getting the impression that I'm judging your story. Just the opposite, I love it! Clearly it's written well if you can get me so invested in it:)

I hate to burst her bubble, but she clearly didn't do very good research if she thinks his father ever spoiled him. I mean, come on. That's Tony 101.

Come on, McGee. No one parties THAT much, no matter how much of a "frat boy" they are!

And we all knew Ziva has many, many issues, for someone who claims to be so perfect:P

(Gosh, do I sound bitter yet? Whoopsies...)

"He is childish, self-absorbed, a poor investigator, unfocused, and disrespectful. The only…I repeat the only reason he is senior field agent is that he has been here longer. If Gibbs stopped protecting him he would fall flat on his face."

No no no, honey, you gotta look AWAY from the mirror.

Not so much blind as actively cruel, but hey, better late than never, I suppose.

Oh, and for Ziva and Tim? Waiting for news about someone you're supposed to care about it punishment for you? I'm truly concerned about your status as human beings, not robots (or worse).
