Why this must be read:

The epsiode 'SWAK' might not have the best plot in the world (Tony catches Y Pestis aka the bubonic plague and... just watch it 'kay?) but oy, the character interactions in this episode are just.... wonderful. Everyone is at the top of their game in this episode, espeically when it comes to essaying the emotions that bind this bunch of unlikely souls together. From Kate's 'white lie', Abby worrying up a storm, Ducky's vigil to Gibb's order to Tony not to die... Which leads me to this beautiful little peice written for the ncis_flashfic 'Epistolatory' challenge.

I love this story as much for what is not said as for what is said. Because with these two that's where the emotional bond is - in what isn't said. And yes, the last two lines cut me to shreds every frakking time.
