I think this was parts me confused as hell and parts it all making stark, vivid sense. All the characters. All the action which was but wasn't. And I loved it!! :) Very, VERY clever the way you wove this all together. And I love that Sex Machine stayed lol ;)

It was Halloween, after all!
And Sex Machine damn well better stay, lol!
Thank you so much!!!

Thank you! it was supposed to be a bit psychedelic here and there! Thanks again, and all hail Sex Machine! Now I am imagining that part, sheesh! ;-P (can't help it, don't want to)

At first I thought Tony was dreaming, but then (after the second reading, lol) it all made a weird kind of sense. Poor Tony, I can't imagine keeping all of his 'selves' in line but love that he can put the right selves to work when needed (right, Sex Machine?). I'm sure Gibbs is glad, too! Very fun fic. Thank you!

Thanks! I'm not entirely sure why I did this this way, but it was a combination of way too many things, and thus meant to be fun! And I'm so glad you saw it that way! A fun and mostly harmless way to bitch about some quirks in canon writing? ;-P
Thank you for checking it out! This is one where the readers deserve the kudos lol!
(And Sex Machine made it all worthwhile for me, too)

OH MY GOSH!! This is the most perfect Halloween fic in the history of Halloween fics! You put it together brilliantly! I am in awe of your talent, seriously!! The way you wove all the versions of Tony and their purposes together to create this... I can't praise it enough but I'm all tongue tied and can't even get any coherent thoughts out. I love, love, love this!! So much!!!

cackymn_lj November 9 2015, 20:35:32 UTC

OH LIZ! That's just...wow! This is the one I warned you about, of course. I was a little uncomfortable bitching about canon, but I had FUN! Thank you so much. The boys will have fun making up for lost time!

Don't be uncomfortable! The way you did it was fun and entertaining and if you had fun that's all that matters! The fact that so many have had fun reading it as well is just icing on the cake!!

This was great! I love pieces that make you think and I adored all the facets of Tony you picked up on - particularly Gus Bricker. I loved the speculation as to why Gibbs is still treating Tony badly. I thought they were going to improve it this season? Maybe it'll still happen. *fingers crossed* Thanks for letting me know. I hadn't been online for a couple of days (medical thingys).

Just a treat to read this!

Oh and...McConanDoyle? Love it!

I saw this as a safe way (I don't want to go on forums and bring people down and stuff...) to shake a stern finger at the show's writing (mostly the thing you mentioned), and have some deep Tony and some Tibbs vindication.
Add it all up and you get crack! I'm so very pleased you liked it!
Hope the medical thingy is ok?
