Wow! I love this, even though, as a brit I'm woefully behind on both series so only have a vague idea of the major plot arcs of both shows. Your story however, just drew me in immediately and kept me spinning along with it like a slow waltz (where you don't really know the steps but find yourself pleasantly swept up in the flow). I love the subtle familiarity in which the McShep is displayed, with Ziva clearly observing the implications like a true investigator and wondering if it's part of the conversation, part of what she's being told. I like the letter-writing scene at the end, particularly the notion that she'll send tony a picture of the Atlantean ocean. A plot-bunny is nibbling my toes about a whole back and forth correspondence where they send each other random undistinctive pictures of the sea from their posting as agents afloat. Can't wait for next installment :-)
