Thanks very much. Glad you enjoyed it. ;-)

? Stupid question - if he didn’t, they wouldn’t be on his team. The question he ought to be asking himself was ‘Did he want them to know him?’ He was their team lead and as such had always maintained a reasonable distance from them. Would they think less of him if they knew the detail? Could he risk narrowing that gap? Could he afford not to?

It was exactly what he was asking - pushing - Tony to do. Risk opening up to his friends, colleagues, and letting them see more of Anthony. very much like this part in particular

Thanks. I wanted Gibbs to acknowledge the similarity between himself and Tony on the 'opening up' to other people front. After all Gibbs hasn't been particularly open himself so I wanted him to acknowledge that what he was asking Tony to do would be difficult.

Still loving this story! Now if only someone *would* slap some sense into smug!Tim...

Thank you. ;-)

Tim was a little smug in S6. I liked it because he gave Tony a bit of a run for his money but I didn't want it to go on forever (or the Gibbs/Tony coolness either). I must say I love the Tim/Tony stuff in the first couple of eps of S7 and it's great to see Gibbs in a 'headslapping' mood again. I wonder how long it'll last?
