Never Never Land by Redvelvetribbon (FR 21 Gibbs/Tony/Tim)

Jan 19, 2010 07:35

Chapter 18

Tim curled up in the corner so he was wedged between the side of the house and the balcony railings and wept. It felt safer somehow as if the walls would stop him from falling apart.

Wow! Great chapter!

Thanks! It was eight pages and I spent some time on it so glad it seemed to work for you.
Angry, angry Timmy

Ahhhh! Oh, Tony, no! *heart aches for boys*
Love this, so wonderful to have an update, just marvelous! It keeps getting better, the closeness as they try to rebuild, the trauma Tim remembers, all of it so well written!

Thank you! Still plenty more to come. Sort of two steps forward, one step back for all the boys. (And I was worried how I would fill up a week at Never Never for them!)

It looks like Tim had another major breakthrough here. Why do I suspect that Gibbs understands first-hand. And poor Tony. I hope he doesn't run. My heart breaks for all of them!

redvelvetribbon January 19 2010, 01:52:10 UTC

Yup, Tonys feeling a bit excluded and there will be a Tony/Gibbs conversation coming up.

With four wives, I'm sure Gibbs does understand. Stats in the US are currently 25% of women are raped, and that's based on what is actually reported. Most CJ experts agree that the actual stats are between 33%-50% if you factor in unreported rape and sexual assault.

That means the odds are that at least one of Gibbs' wives was a rape/sexual assault survivor at some point in her life. He may or may not have dealt with it firsthand like he is in this fic, but it's a sure bet that he had to deal with the aftermath of it with at least one of his wives.

Yup its an unfortunate thing. Apart from myself and my sisters every female member of my family has been raped at least once. Multi generational, multiple victims and perpertrators. Pretty fuucked up as its has changed my entire family.

Holy Mother of God. I don't know where to start with the amazingness of this fic.

I suppose I have to start with Tim just relaxing into Gibbs' embrace, just letting Gibbs be his safety net. That nearly brought me to tears.

And then I damn near snurgled my VitaminWater through my nose when it came to Tony's wet dream. That was hilarious! Especially how he tried to play it off as a het wet dream before he realized he was talking in his sleep!

And then Tim's rage, slowly finding its opening... I've had my own fantasies like that, except it was my lover that had been attacked, not me. This. Exactly.

I huggle the Tony for his helplessness at the end. It's a feeling I know well. But Tony won't run; not this time. He's not capable of abandoning Tim and Gibbs. He might try, but he'll let them convince him to stay.

I have said before and I say again that your story has such elements of real trauma and recovery that I am in awe. You have done it again here. I love every word!

redvelvetribbon January 19 2010, 04:42:14 UTC

Thank you. Bows. Yes its may not seem like it but its a step forward and rage has to be delt with as much as terror and fear does.
Glad Im still keeping you interested. Im trying to balance some moments of humor with what is a very heavy topic so it doesn't become relentless and monotonous.
Off to start next chapter....each one takes me a while as they end up very long each time.

ladyeternal January 19 2010, 05:25:33 UTC

Know all about the rage! (See above.)

I've seen relentless whumpage before; this is nowhere close. You are achieving your goals for this story by a wide margin, Velvet. I really do love this fic and, like kaylashay, I've friended you so I know when you update!

Each chapter is better than the last and it is worth the wait every time.

Thank you

Oh wow, what an amazing chapter! You have pictured Tim's anger and frustration so well here, I really did feel for him, this was so well done! And as for Tony at the end there, well my heart just went out to him, he is so full of insecurities that he doesn't think he has the strength to cope with this, I really hope that Gibbs realises that Tony's struggling here and needs some support as well. This chapter is just fantastic, this story is just fantastic!

redvelvetribbon January 20 2010, 08:11:23 UTC

Thank you! Yeah Tony is uncertain and doesn't want to make a bad situation worse....but would leaving help? Its pretty awful either way.

starbuckssue January 20 2010, 18:09:52 UTC

No! Tony can't leave! I guess he could think leaving was the thing to do and try to run but as Gibbs knows him so well he suspects he might run and stops him. Ooh can't wait to see what happens. You are going to give us a happy ending aren't you?

redvelvetribbon January 21 2010, 00:04:15 UTC

Can't spoil it but i won't be too cruel to you!
