13 | * Very much recommended if you're a fan of Timothy [=McGee=]. Even though more often than not Emerald winds up putting [=McGee=] through utter hell, she can keep him - as well as the rest of the team - in-character and make him shine no matter what situation the plot puts him in. Ever wanted to see Tim as a superhero a la The ''Franchise/TheIncredibles'', or getting the team involved in the Renaissance Fair? Emerald1's your author. |

76 | * ''Recommended by'' jbstarnes1 |
77 | * ''Status'': Complete |
78 | * ''Synopsis'': What seems like a normal homicide investigation quickly becomes more when Gibbs is put into the hospital by a sniper at the same time Director Vance is kidnapped. With a domestic terror plot unfolding, and an apparent traitor in their midst, DiNizzo finds himself the most senior agent left and must put away his joker persona if the team is to have any hope of stopping the plot before it's too late. While Tony-centric the ensemble is essential to the plot; everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, gets a chance to shine in a rolling techno-thriller plot that grabs hold from the outset and doesn't let go, fueled by a truly formidable villain. The only downside is the sizable sequel baiting at the end which, as of yet, has not been followed up on. |
79 | * ''Pairing'': Tony/Ziva, but it's not really the focus of the story. |

Generally "Shards" is a more vanilla story (or, to borrow a metaphor from a chapter in "STAW", [[ItMakesSenseInContext vanilla extract as opposed to the whole vanilla bean)]]. |

183 | * ''Synopsis'': Tony takes a bullet for [=McGee=], and his life flashes before his eyes. He also runs into more than one old friend - and an enemy or two. What will he think when he sees what could have been, and what will he do when he is faced with an impossible decision? AU towards the end of Season Ten. Inspired by "Life Before His Eyes". |
184 | * ''Comments'': This is probably the most in-character ''NCIS'' fanfiction I've ever read, and definitely the best I've seen involving Kate. Shipping-wise, there's a pretty even mix of Tony/Ziva and Tony/Kate, so you can read it regardless of which one you ship (and if you ship both, it's perfect). The banter between Tony and Kate is spot-on, which is impressive considering how much Tony's matured since the last time we saw him banter with Kate. Definitely read this with a box of tissues nearby. I had to stop a couple of times because I couldn't read through my tears. |

Although the JAG characters take center stage, the NCIS characters (first appearing in chapter 34) are given equally meticulous treatment.
