NCIS snippet from a case fic I probably won't ever write

[eliyes]

"Gibbs!" Abby called exuberantly as he walked into her lab. She accepted the piece of carrot cake he'd brought her with one lace-enmeshed hand, asking, "How many times have you seen Tony naked?"

He made a pained face at her -- and at McGee and Ziva, who were lurking behind Abby's computers.

"Was I supposed to be counting?"

"Well, no. I mean, you don't remember? Can't you give me a ballpark quantitative estimate...?"

Gibbs rolled his eyes. "Many," he tried.

"And qualitatively...?" Abby fished, grinning.

"The time with the iguana was the funniest. Why, Abs?"

(Ziva shot McGee a look, but he shrugged, just as puzzled.)

"Well, we're trying to figure out if this picture --" She led him around to the screen on the wall. "-- is Tony or not."

Gibbs sipped his coffee and contemplated the image of a man laying on his stomach, only his legs and one hip visible.

He pointed at an area of the screen. "Can you magnify that?"

"His butt?" Abby clarified, delighted. Gibbs just twisted to raise an eyebrow at her.

"Yes, Gibbs. Magnifying."

"...Huh," McGee said.

"'Zat a bruise or a tattoo?" Gibbs asked.

"Looks like a tat --" Abby opined.

"Tony does not have one," Ziva pointed out.

"So it's not DiNozzo," Gibbs confirmed.
