Author’s notes: This fic might be a tad controversial. I've tried to find a plausible explanation for the way Tony has been portrayed on NCIS since around mid-season 6. I believe it's a valid interpretation of the character’s viewpoint, but not everyone will like it (which is fine!). This story is all from Tony's pov; I've deliberately kept the viewpoints and motivations of the other characters ambiguous (rather like the show!) so please don't think I'm judging any of the other characters. I think this story has a happy ending, but it's not the usual kind of happy ending I do.

Summary: Tony is injured working a case – and comes to a shocking realisation.
Extract: “So, some psycho is holding your team hostage… he’s got a machine gun, and you know he’s a killer because he’s murdered two people already. He’s standing right there, just beneath you, and you have a clear shot - but you hesitate. Why is that, Tony?”
