Baltimore Homicide » by
Melindaleo
There was an insecurity there, an odd sense of vulnerability in the brash young man that he couldn't quite place. He prided himself on being an excellent judge of character, easily reading what others chose to keep hidden. He couldn't read DiNozzo – and it was seriously pissing him off. Yes, it's a Gibbs meets Tony adventure – AU from the show, but the follow through is the same.
