NCIS Fic 'First Rule' Gibbs/DiNozzo PG13

I was watching season two's Red Cell and there's this bit where Tony tells Gibbs he'll rent him Fight Club. So I decided to see what would happen if he did.

900 words, no spoilers.

( First Rule )

Viper 2.3 Condor aka once an actor for Pet Fly, always an actor for Pet Fly

This episode scores big on the Vancouver Actor Bingo card, but more than that, 80% of the people turned up in TS later. They really do have just 20 actors up there.

We have, in that one episode,

Sherman Augustus (Earl from The Sentinel)
Jeff Kaake (Brackett from The Sentinel)
Jay Acovone (best known for Stargate but also a Sentinel guest star from Spare Parts; a.k.a The Man Jim Called Chief When We All Know That's BLAIR'S Nickname, Dammit.)
Douglas Stewart (Patrick Donaghue in The Trance)
Sean Campbell (both Stargates and Siege and Four Point Shot as Southern)
Carlo Rota (Jack Buchanan on The Rig)

Now I'm wondering: RB wasn't their first choice for Jim; they wanted the man who played The Flash. Suppose RB hadn't got the job; they were almost guaranteed to have him on TS as a guest at some point, so what kind of character would he have played?

He was a suave villain on Viper, but he'd played a happy go lucky cop after that on OWW. Imagine Jim swaggering in as a Fed, or a witness needing protecting -- or Naomi's current boyfriend, or a prisoner in Prisoner X...

Ooh, so many possibilities!

Birthdays!

Two lovely people I've known for a long time celebrate today: lumenara and paratti.

I hope that you've both had the very best of days celebrating and that the cake is nicely squishy :-)

::much love::
