Wow! Awesome! *speechless*

Oh, thank you!! I'm glad it worked that way ;)

Aw I loved this. Amazingly heartbreaking and so well written. It was nice to kind of see Gibbs' reaction to the news. I felt like we never got to see what he went through losing Jenny on the show. And it would have been a massive loss to him. I also liked how you had words fail Tony at that time and he had to hand the phone over. And even Ziva couldn't hide her emotion this time. It just goes to show what a massive shock and what a massive loss this was to all concerned. including the viewers

Fantastic job!

Thank you!! I'm really glad you liked it - although it is sad and nothing you would want to start (or in your case, end) a Sunday with. I have no idea where this came from, but I had always the feeling that something was missing. We saw that Jethro was sad and Ziva had cried, but I would've liked to see more. But that's what fanfiction are for ;)
Thank you!

Oh God...so utterly beautiful and SO SAD! You managed to have Jibbs and (kind of) Jiva angst, you are a master at this! Thank you so much for this piece of angsty fic, as weird as it sounds, it did make my day lol!

*offers a tissue and an Abby-hug*

This made your day? And I was afraid it would kill your Sunday *is relieved* I'm glad it didn't work that way. Jibbs and Jiva? Hm, that wasn't the plan, but I think it could be read as friendship or more (whatever you like to see). Thank you!!
Guess that kinda makes me Queen of Angst again? ;)

[marciafan]

You ALWAYS are the Queen of Angst *hugs you tightly*

[nicis_anatomy]

But last week I had the feeling I would lose that title. Because I hardly wrote anything angst-y *g*
*takes title back and puts it on the wall above the monitor* Now, I need an icon for that ...

OMG, that was so heartwrenching but totally believable. Angsty-poor Gibbs. and, I think Tony handling the phone to Ziva could totally have happened.

thx for sharing. :)

[nicis_anatomy]

Thank you ;) I'm glad you think it's believable. I always felt there was something missing and this morning I was suddenly in the mood to fill the gap ;)

[cyad]

it's really believable and I'm real glad you filled the gap! :)

[ami_ven]

This is fantastically sad! I can completely believe that this is what happened.

[nicis_anatomy]

Thank you so much!! That means a lot to me *hugs*
