NCIS Mini Adoption Agency

"Why is the console making that sound?" Cali asked as he edged away in case of an explosion.
"It's a message," Miah said. She pushed the button and read the message. "Agents Allison and Tasmin have found Abbey. They have her in RC 80."
"Oh thank goodness! I've--I mean Magee has been so worried about her."
Magee threw a spare microchip at Cali. Castor gave him a disapproving "Mrrw!" and fluttered over to retrieve it.
"Uh, yeah," Miah said watching the exchange. "Let's go get her before they manage to blow up the RC."
The two agents readied their distractions and left the RC. After several wrong turns, an encounter with Unger and the mini-Hound of the Baskervilles, Homles, and finding the cafeteria three times, they finally made it RC 80.
"We need better distractions," Miah said knocking on the door.
"Agreed."
Agent Tasmin opened the door. "You finally received the message, I see."
She stepped aside, and an ecstatic Abbey ran to Cali and latched onto his leg. He offered her chocolate, and she immediately let go to take the candy. He picked her up and set her on his shoulder where she grabbed a handful of his unruly hair to balance herself.
"I didn't know you could make her de-glomp with chocolate," Allison said from behind Tasmin in the RC.
"She loves the stuff--can't handle pure caffeine as well as the canon, though."
Dinozzo and Director Sheppard peaked around the corner, eying the chocolate.
"Please can they come with us?" Abbey whispered into Cali's ear.
Cali pointed at them and gave Miah his best impression of puppy dog eyes.
Miah sighed loudly. "Do they have homes?"
"They do not," Tasmin said.
"Well, we do seem to be running an NCIS mini adoption center. I suppose we could take them, at least until someone else wants them. They surely won't be lonely." Miah glared at Cali. "You are taking the blame with DoSAT for anything that gets destroyed."
She reached out to pick up Dinozzo. He apparently hadn't learned anything from being dropped on his head, because he tried for copping a feel. Miah didn't drop him. She threatened him. "I'm the only one in our RC that can cook bacon," she said seriously.
Dinozzo thought about it for a moment, and then said, "I apologize sincerely, Miss."
He scrambled up to her shoulder and sat quietly. Director Sheppard apparently also took the threat to heart, because she made no fuss about being placed on Cali's other shoulder.
"Thank you, and I suppose that if you ever can't find a home for NCIS minis you can always give us a page," said Miah.
"We'll keep that in mind," said Tasmin before she shut the door.
"Let's go pick up the supplies for these two, and head back home," said Cali.
Thus was born the NCIS Mini Adoption Center.
Minis from NCIS fandom are mini-Law Enforcement Officers. These minis are about a foot and a half tall. The character minis look like their name-sake. The Other minis are generic Marine Military Police (MPs) or Navy Masters-at-Arms (MAs) or another Law Enforcement Agency that would be appropriate to the mission. Several of them have been rescued from badfic already.
