Title: Scenes from an Intersection
Fandom: NCIS/Supernatural
Rating: PG
Characters: Dean, Gibbs, Tony, Ziva, McGee, Abby, Jimmy, hints of Tony/Ziva
Spoilers: None
Summary: A mysterious death has Gibbs contacting the son of an old Marine.
Author’s Notes: NCIS and SPN have so much potential for crossover, but unfortunately this fic, though starting off as planned, got far, far away from me. There’s very little plot; as the titles says, it’s more scenes from a crossover than an actual crossover.



They’d seen a lot of gruesome cases over the years. Dismembered bodies. Corpses so burnt they were unrecognizable. A room decorated solely in muscle tissue. Nothing, however, had prepared them for the mutilation of this particular body, or the weirdness of the case that followed.

“This is really strange, boss,” said McGee, looking pale.

“Strange is normal, Probie,” said Tony, who didn’t look at his best either. “We know strange. This is…” Words, unusually, seemed to fail him. But not for long. “This is weird.”

“Well, thank you for that assessment, DiNozzo,” responded Gibbs, turning away from the body to survey the crime scene. “Ziva?” Ziva was still crouched by the body.

“It’s remarkable,” she said, tracing patterns of damage with a pen. “Look at how Sergeant Howard was scored here, and here. It’s… I have not seen anything like it before.”

“Y’know, Ziva, I would feel much better if you didn’t sound quite so envious,” Tony said petulantly. “Being able to do that to a body is not generally accepted as a life skill.”

“In Mossad, this…” Tony held up a hand.

“Generally accepted among normal people, Zee-vah.”

“Well, that is because normal people…”

“Hey! DiNozzo…”

“…Crime scene photos. On it, boss.”

“David…”

“…Talk to people; see if anyone saw anything.”

“McGee…”

“Check with the Highway Department to see if their security cameras picked up anything. Yes, boss.”

Gibbs nodded, satisfied.

***

Back at NCIS, they reviewed the highway tapes.

“See,” said Tony, pointing at the screen. “Weird, not strange. Rookie mistake, Probie.”

“That’s… what is that, Gibbs?” asked Ziva, frowning as she tried to make out the pixilated figure on the tape.

“Outside our jurisdiction,” said Gibbs absently, reaching for his phone. The others exchanged startled glances. When, exactly, did Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs give up jurisdiction on a case involving a murdered sailor?

***

“I knew your dad. He was a good man.” The man accompanying Gibbs nodded appreciatively.

“Thanks. He said the same about you. So, Deacon said you called?”

Gibbs cocked his head towards the screen in the middle of the room. “We found a dead sailor out in Virginia. This was on the security camera.” The man whistled.

“Nasty. Leave a mess?”

“You could say that.”

“Yeah, they’ll do that. Anyone else hurt?”

“Not so far. That we know of.”

“Oh, give it time.” There was a disgruntled cough.

“Er, boss, mind clueing the rest of us in about what’s going on? And who Steve McQueen here is?” The visitor grinned.

“Heh. Steve McQueen.” Tony nodded.

“Yeah, the clothes, and the attitude; all vint… wait, who are you?”

“DiNozzo, David, McGee.” Gibbs pointed them out in turn. “Dean Winchester.”

***

“So, monsters are real?” McGee’s voice was skeptical. “I don’t… I mean, that’s kinda hard to believe.”

“I’m with Elf Lord,” said Tony. McGee glared at him.

***

“So, tell me again why we need Winchester here, boss,” asked Tony, as they trekked through a Virginian wood looking for a trail.

“Well, you could say I’m kind of a specialist. I kill these things so people like you never have to find out about them.”

“We can kill things,” said Ziva.

“But I’m really good at it,” said Dean, pushing aside a branch.

“I could kill you,” Ziva returned, matter-of-factly. Dean raised an eyebrow and grinned.

“Could be fun trying.” Ziva seemed to consider the prospect. Her eyes narrowed.

“Fun?” Dean nodded, his grin widening.

“Oh yeah. You an’ me, Ziva: fighting with each other. Hot. Sweaty. All that adrenaline. I mean… y’know what, don’t mind me. I’m just going to a happy place right now.”

“Don’t get your hopes up, Winchester,” said Tony stiffly. “Officer David is more likely to just shoot you.”

“Afraid of a little competition, Tony?” Ziva’s voice was sultry. Dean noted with regret that she hadn’t tried that one on him. He was a little late to this particular party. He let the branch flick back into Tony DiNozzo’s face, all the same.

***

“No, it’s not like that. Think… OK, you ever seen Creatures of the Infernal Reaches IV?”

“With Brandi Molloy in that bikini?”

“Oh yeah.”

“That’s a good film.”

“Not as good as III.”

“Well, that’s a classic.”

“I hear you, dude.”

“I’ve got the platinum DVD. The extras will blow your mind. Wait… it’s like that?”

“Uh-huh.”

“OK, I’m officially disturbed now. Boss, did you hear that?”

“Yep. Didn’t understand a word.”

“That’s because you’re culturally stunted, boss. Ow!”

“Check the perimeter, DiNozzo.”

“On it, boss.”

***

“So, Ziva and Tony, they’re…” Dean mimed a crude gesture. Jimmy looked shocked.

“Absolutely not! They… Tim!” McGee was nodding resignedly.

“Oh yeah. I mean, not actually. But, y’know.”

“Tim, I really don’t think that…”

“Trust me, Jimmy. You haven’t had to do a stake-out with them. We were stuck in a motel room for over twelve hours. I thought they might actually explode from sexual tension.” McGee looked disturbed even now by the memory.

“Ohhhh. So, that’s why… I mean, Tommy and Lisa…”

“Tommy and Lisa?” asked Dean curiously. McGee looked shifty.

“So, Jimmy, those autopsy results...”

***

“Nice lab.” Nice girl, too. The mouth didn’t say it, but the eyes sure did.

“Thanks,” said Abby. “It took a while, but I got it just how I like it.” She walked ahead, describing the exact process that had led her to put the mass spectrometer where it was, and the computers where they were, and Dean tilted his head, appreciating the view.

“Oh, that’s just how I like it.” Abby turned round, curious.

“Did you say something?” Dean smiled, wide and inviting, until he met Gibbs’ gaze. The smile shrivelled.

“It was nothing. So, forensics? Man, my brother would love this.”

***

“That was… possibly one of the most disgusting things I have ever seen.” Ziva grimaced as she flicked scaly brown skin off her shoulder. It landed on Tony. He shuddered and jumped out of his chair.

“Ziva!” She leaned forward, in his face.

“What?”

“You… you…” Tony pulled a face, and started to strip out of his shirt. Ziva stepped back, eyed him consideringly, then shook her head.

“You look better with the scales and the moo.”

“Goo, Ziva. Gooooo.” He threw his shirt at her, but she sidestepped and it hit McGee, who looked startled.

“What? Euw! Tony?”

“Tony,” said Ziva maliciously, sauntering back to her own desk, “is considering a new career. Striping, yes?”

“The word, Zee-vah, is stripping. Stripping. And I am not considering a career in it.”

Dean was lolling in Gibbs’ chair. “I dunno, Tony, you could do worse.”

“See,” said Ziva. “Dean thinks you should.”

“I am not becoming a stripper! I am a federal agent!” Dean shrugged.

“It pays the bills, is all I’m saying, man.”

“Maybe not for Tony. He is not that attractive.”

“I am extremely attractive. McGee!”

“You’re very attractive, Tony.”

“See!”





“McGee thinks Tony should become a stripper, Gibbs.”

“I don’t want to know.”







Meh. I have lost my characterisation mojo. *weeps* I had much better Dean in my head at lunchtime, but he ran away. Damn him.

Yes, a plot is often a good tool in a story. And of course you've pimped it. There was absolutely no need to tell me that!

I'm one of those really annoying people who never betas their fic and knows it's a bit pants, but has to pimp it anyway.

Me: I'm sorry, it's a bit shit, and it has no plot, and my characterisation went screwy, and I didn't have enough Dean.

The World: Well, why didn't you wait to post it till it was fixed?

Me: Uh...

The World: Then you could have made a plot.

Me: True.

The World: And sorted out the characterisation.

Me: Yep.

The World: But you didn't.

Me: Nope.

The World: You instead foisted underwritten fic on us.

Me: Yep. Sorry about that.

The World: WHY? FOR THE LOVE OF ESMERELDA, WHY?

Me: Well, I like the attention. GIVE ME ATTENTION, DAMMIT!!

The World: Oh, fuck off.

Heh - I liked that bit too! And then I had total paranoia that people would read that section and not know who was talking and all would be sadness and grief. But apparently not. So yay. :)

This started off soo good! I love that Gibbs knew John Winchester and called Dean. I adored Dean flirting with Ziva and her threat to kill him. Which, I agree, would have been fun to see her try. ;-)

At that point, I was considering reccing on my site... but then it kind of petered out until there were places I wasn't sure who was talking. *le sigh*

I hope Dean comes back to you *waves dagwood sandwich in front of Dean as incentive* and brings the mojo with him. This has awesome potential, based on that amazing first half.

That was simply fantastic, I might rec it on my LJ, but ony if I can remember to when I come back. Anyway, point is, and it's very important insofar as it helps me explain how good this was for me, I INTENT to rec it, whether I do it's another subject *entirely* ::nods::

And this is why I have to go because at this time of the day I get rambly, people might get pissy/annoyed and I might end up nurturing a black eye. So, ::is gone::

Loved how Dean fit in without blending too much, it was just the right amount of Dean to facilitate the fic's progression and DiNozzo's excuse to lose his shirt. But y'know, more Dean is NEVER too much so, should he come back to you...

I'm gone now, for reals.

NCIS felt very much in character...for me, there wasn't quite enough of Dean to really feel whether he was in character or not.

From: [identity profile] erinrua.livejournal.com
I don't know NCIS but I love the characters you've given us. They all seem very real and well-realised, and Dean rings true to me. It's an outside POV for him and it makes him even more fun, especially his snarkiness and wit. Heh, and flirting with Ziva.

If you come back to this sometime, it woudl be fun to see it develope. Meanwhile, it's a nice series of scenes and paints a tantalizing picture of Dean working for another agency. Much fun!

Only one thing I might suggest, which you can ignore or not. That is, several places you have dialogue from one person, followed by a reaction or action by another person, all in the same sentence. Like this:

“Could be fun trying.” Ziva seemed to consider the prospect. Her eyes narrowed.

“Fun?” Dean nodded, his grin widening.


I had to reread to figure out who was saying what, because it looks like the first line is Ziva talking then considering, and the second line is Dean answering and nodding. But it's actually the opposite. If you separate one person's dialogue from the next person's action, it would be a bit clearer, like this:

“Could be fun trying.”

Ziva seemed to consider the prospect. Her eyes narrowed. “Fun?”

Dean nodded, his grin widening.


See what I mean? Anyhow, as I said, you didn't ask for beta-poking, so please forgive me if this is overstepping. It remains a fun and interesting series of scenes! :-)
Cheers ~

Not overstepping at all, thanks for the feedback! The dialogue did really get away from me in this one (though the issue you highlighted is something I always end up doing, even though one or two people have commented on it in the past). I'm quite keen on the idea of this crossover, so I may have a second stab at it, maybe after watching a bit more SPN (had a bit of a dry season on that front the last couple of months) so I can get Dean better. And, y'know, think of a plot... ;) Anyway, yes, rambling. Thank you for the comments!

Hunny, it totally worked. I think you got Dinozzo and Dean just right with the movie thing and Dean checking out Abby...yay! And I can hear Gibbs in my head saying Tony's name in warning...'Dinozzo'. So yeah, it rocked. And don't worry, if one Dean left your head around lunch, he usually gets hungry and comes back.
Great Job!

Sweet! Love the back-and-forth banter between Dean and Ziva. You did not loose your characterisation mojo, no sir *shakes head vehemently*

Dean would so kink out the NCIS team and his flirtatiousness would just help kink it a little bit more. Well done, although I didn't get the monster. Just something scaly, gooey and homicidal. But good monster! Bring the Winchesters & NCIS team together.

The begining was great - liked that Gibbs knew John (& Deacon). Loved the Tony - Dean movie conversation. .

SPN and NCIS are my two favorite shows so I can say that you nailed all the characters. There are not enough of these crosses.

I do have to second the confusion about who was talking but it is a good start. So much potential. You really should fix and continue.

I loved it. Loved. Loved Dean's flirting with Ziva especially.

“Y’know, Ziva, I would feel much better if you didn’t sound quite so envious,” Tony said petulantly. “Being able to do that to a body is not generally accepted as a life skill.”

TEH WIN.

meredith44: Can't talk, I'm reading (Ziva-green)
From: [personal profile] meredith44
I liked the basic premise and some of the lines. I have to agree with the [livejournal.com profile] erinrua above who was confused by the statements after the quotes. I also had to reread that part. I think if you spaced it out as she (?) suggested it would be improved. Dean was a bit underused, so it was hard to get a read on his character, but I thought your Ziva, Gibbs and Tony were fairly in character. I wish the story had been a bit more fleshed out. I liked some of the interaction, but I wish there had been more of it, especially in terms of an actual case. I hope you cross these fandoms again, though, because I think you have definite potential there, especially in the interactions between Dean/Ziva/Tony.

“That’s because you’re culturally stunted, boss. (insert headsmack here) "Ow!"

Oh I could just see the Dean/Tony movie exchange.

And wouldn't a Dean/Ziva fight be amusing? Nothing against Dean, but she'd kick his ass.

Now I want to write Sam/Abby. :Wonders if Gibbs would approve:

Love love love this! I think that the characters are spot on and brilliant. :) I would also love to see Sam interact with them, and the above mentioned Sam/Abby. But this was fun!
