*Giggles madly*

It works! It works really well. And no it's not too silly at all.

Great fun in fact. Poor Cynthia, I can imagine how she felt. And her interaction with Gibbs is perfect - on both sides.

And great little twist at the end.

Really good.

As an unrelated aside, I do like how you also use 'the director' of 'her boss' etc. I've just finished my Tom Morrow drabble from Gibbs's POV and that too is 'his boss', 'Director Morrow'. It wouldn't feel right for Gibbs to 'use' just 'Morrow'. End of aside

Edit: A minor thing, but my brain seems focused on the tiny, in two places you have word count 500, but on NCIS Drabble you have 300. Not that it really matters, but . . .

I copied the old header and changed everything except for the word cout *blushes* Sorry ...

Thank you! I wasn't sure, if the twist in the end would work or not (and I really have no idea where the twin came from *g*). I'm glad it did. And yes, poor Cynthia. But I can also see Gibbs being shocked by the doubled!Jenny *g*

Oh, you finished the TM drabble? That's great! I use these terms like they use it on the show. Shepard (or Morrow - or Jenny or Tom) wouldn't sound right said by anyone. And they always refer to the directors as 'director xy', don't they? I like that and I try to use it, too ;)

No worries. I've done that myself!

I love the way things can just come like that. Yes, poor Gibbs - he certainly would have been shocked!

I have, yes. And I think it makes sense *g* Exactly. I'm glad you concur; not everyone does.

Thank you! I'm glad you like this so much. And I'm sure we all would duck, if Jethro gave us this stare ;)

She turned around to return to her office, but was stopped halfway, when she bumped into something soft; something soft that wasn’t in the best mood.
Hahahahahaha this had me rolling on the floor with laughter LOL!
Poor Cynthia...and poor Gibbs XD
But this gives a whole new meaning to the infamous elevator scene in "Probie"...
"Still here?"
"No, I'm the director's doppelganger."
XD priceless!

I think it was the elevator scene I had in mind when I wrote this (plus the whole twin discussion we had this morning on twitter) *g* I have no other explanation for this drabble ;)
I'm glad you liked it and it worked. Yes, I don't know if I feel sorry for Cynthia or for Jethro - or for both ... In the first version she even dropped his coffee, but I had to delete this, because it was too long.
Thank you for your review *g*

Oh please do write a drabble about Cynthia spilling Gibbs' coffee! And maybe Jenny can save her from his fury? XD
OMG, this inside joke thing is getting out of hand... I keep giggling everytime I read or write a review LOL

And I just thought...if Jenny has a twin sister, that means she's genetically likely to have twins if she happen to be pregnant *smirks* Mind's working here, getting ready to bug the crap out of you to make you write your very first (is that so? XD) baby!fic!

Hm, I deleted that part :( Maybe I can recall it and work it into a drabble. I will see what I can do. But I don't think that I will write that baby!fic. It just isn't my thing, you know. Smut was something new and different, but the baby!fic ... I don't think I will. I won't feel right. But you should write it (or we will do it together on twitter *g*)

ROTFL!

I really wondered if I'd stepped into the Twilight (no pun intended) zone when Jenny didn't aknowledge Cynthia...I mean busy-overbooked Jenny would never ignore Cynthia... I never suspected what was wrong until I read about her twin and... imagining distressed Gibbbs having to cope with 2 Sheppard redheads... that was totally rotfl!

;) That's what I wanted to achieve - a surprise ending ... I'm glad it worked. Poor Jethro ... yes, I thought that to; one Shepard is hard to deal with, but two ... I feel almost sorry for him *g*
Thank you for reading this!

It sure did work on me. :)

Man, you're right. Poor Jethro.

YW, it really made my gloomy day.
