Author’s Notes: This story is for[livejournal.com profile] georgiesmithwho made the winning icon in the Gibbs/Tony humour category. This icon already has a fantastic joke, so I couldn’t use that…so I decided to add another joke on top of it ;-).

Summary: “Look, Tony, you can’t keep sulking just because some piece of skirt handed back your ring years ago…You’ve gotta get out there and find yourself a wife.”

xanthefic: (ncis icontest hey its our)

Back in April, I held a Tibbs iContest on my LJ. You can check out all the entries and the winners here.

I promised the winners I'd write them all a story inspired by their icon. Originally, I offered to do drabbles – fics of 100 words exactly. But when I came to do them, I found I wanted them to just be as long as they wanted to be – so I went with that.

My apologies for how long it has taken. First I wanted to finish Two Wolves. Then I broke my ankle and didn’t write anything for a long time. So, I'm delighted to finally be able to post them now.

The stories vary in size from 300ish words long to nearly 4000 words long. I started out thinking I’d keep them very short, in the spirit of a drabble, but somehow each one kept turning out longer than the previous one! Please don’t assume any value judgement from their length; I just looked at each icon and went where my imagination took me, whether it was a short ‘joke’ fic, or a longer, more angsty story. Or, you know, lots of spanky BDSM ;-).

Sometimes, my imagination was surprising; the best Tony icon is a story largely about Gibbs, and the best Gibbs icon is a story largely about Tony. Go figure! I tried to keep all the stories to one scene – except for the best BDSM icon fic which, once I had the idea, I knew would have to be comprised of several short scenes in order to do what I wanted with it, which was to contextualise the icon.

I did my best to capture some feeling or truth that struck me about each icon. I hope I succeeded. Please make sure to admire each icon before you read – the stories work much better that way!

Thank you again to all the entrants of the iContest for making it such a great competition. You all rock ☺.

Author’s Notes: This story is for [livejournal.com profile] theeverdream who made the winning icon in the Gibbs/Tony romance category. When I looked at this icon, the two things that struck me were a) why is Tony wearing that big sweater and b) what sneaky, secret thing are Gibbs and Tony smiling about? So I wrote this to explain the two!

Summary: “Tony, the sun is shining, the sky is blue, and it’s 80 degrees out here! Why on earth are you wearing that giant sweater?”

Author’s Notes: This story is for [livejournal.com profile] dinky_di_1 who made the winning icon in the Gibbs/Tony BDSM category. I had the idea for this story almost as soon as I saw this icon – but I knew it’d end up long, so I tried to think of something else. But in the end I gave in and went with my original idea, which is why it’s a tad longer than the other winning fics. It’s just what came to mind.
This story is set in the 24/7 universe featured in my story Two Masters, where Tony is Gibbs’s 24/7 sub. It’s set several months after the events featured in that story, so Tony and Gibbs are now settled into their relationship and it has evolved.

Summary: “I’m going to give you a word,” Gibbs said, trailing a finger over Tony’s freshly spanked ass.

Spoilers: Restless
Author’s Notes: This story is for [livejournal.com profile] dinky_di_1 who made the winning icon in the Gibbs category. This icon was also voted best overall in the iContest, and I can see why. The idea is simple, the execution flawless and the use of that particular picture perfect. I’m glad I didn’t try and write this story too soon – it needed to wait until after Restless aired.

Summary: Tony’s known Gibbs a very long time – but not as long as Gibbs has known him.
