Hey, with so many agents working NCIS these days, the Flowers perhaps should stop sending assignment for it to the sub-Department of rare fandoms.
Nice first mission, though I wasn't very convinced of the badfic. Other than some bad writing, you didn't really show why the story was bad. A few more choice quotes of lines of paraphrasing of scenes would have helped greatly in this respect.
Another point, in the first half of the mission there were quite a few things taken literally from the badfic. Though, that can be funny, if used too often it can get tiresome.
Thanks. The badfic started out okay, but then around chapter eight, the author suddenly started in with the mischaracterization- Gibbs not taking Tony to the hospital, and then when Tony finally did get to the hospital, they didn't have Gibbs put up a protective detail, etc., not to mention the odd misspelling of Abby's name, so that was sort of the jumping off point.
And thanks for the concrit; I'll work on stuff like that for my next mission.
Is the mini still up for adoption? I am trying for an entire collection of NCIS minis.
And it is nice to see more people interested in defending NCIS. It is a good show and deserves to have its canon protected. I am glad this story was done, I was the one that reported it to the list. It drives me crazy when a fic starts out okay and then just hijacks the characters off into oblivion. It could have had a few more examples of why it was bad. The literalisms (I made up a word :D) you used in the first section were very funny.
Yes, the mini-Abby's still up for adoption; Feel free to have either Ian or Lee drop her off. You could throw her into the mix when Magee's dropped off or really whenever you'd like.

Just some thoughts for the next mission.
