Pairing: Anthony DiNozzo/Jethro Gibbs
Rating: Mature
Length: 25,500
Warnings and spoilers: Major Character Death

Link to Artwork
Category: Slash
Pairing: Anthony DiNozzo/Jethro Gibbs, Anthony DiNozzo/Original Male Character
Rating: Mature
Length: 60,700
Warnings and spoilers: General spoilers for the series, especially the end of S18 and early S19. Does not exactly follow canon after Gibbs' boat explodes. (The story will still make sense if you stopped watching the series years ago as it focuses on Tony, Gibbs, and my original character.)
Summary:
Tony is now employed by the FBI, assigned to a team that works missing persons cases in California. He can’t believe it when Tim calls from DC to tell him that Gibbs’ boat blew up on a lake, and Gibbs is now missing. Tony travels to DC to assist in the search, but no trace of Gibbs is found. Returning back to his job in LA, Tony is still devastated by the loss. One night, he meets an attractive young man on a beach and they begin a relationship. However, more surprises come down the road to shake up Tony’s world, including Gibbs’ journals that Tim finds and sends to Tony to read. Through the journals, Tony learns that Gibbs secretly harbored romantic feelings toward him for many years, which leads to Tony re-evaluating how he truly feels about Gibbs. It also leaves him more determined than ever to find out what happened to his former boss.
