What comes to my mind

I need to get this out of my system, but...

Do you imagine how it would be if one of McGee's twins was interested in Tali once they grow up?

Like the Dinozzo-David family comes back to US, and even if they had kept in contact with the McGee-Fielding family, Tali and John/Morgan can't help but feel drawn to each other now that they see themselves as grown-ups.

Like, imagine Tony's reaction to McGee's child being interested in his precious daughter? And the advices McGee would give them.

And Delilah and Ziva's amusement at their children being head over heels for one another and using their fathers' tactics.

Now I want to see this 😂

In Ephemera NCIS 17x16 Palmer gives the guys letters written by Dinozzo Sr.

Palmer says Sr. is grateful they helped bring Ziva back and that the entire family is okay.

Even if it was off-screen I loved they got their happy ending

The letter the only proof of it,I hate the writers

And MW who wrote something like "Senior is very naive person" afrer that,like maybe they didn't reunite for real. But I think that after all those years (3) writers can't say "nah it didn't happen, something bad did". M. just wanted to troll and Tony and Ziva are enjoying a glass of wine on their balcony after putting Tali to sleep

He looks like hell. Which is what he should look like when realizing he has to leave the love of his life on foreign soil. It’s strangely perfect. And the adoration in Ziva’s eyes- committing every contour of his face to memory… it’s gut wrenching and beautiful. They are just so good at this.

I physically cannot look of that shot of Tony’s face in the olive grove anymore. It’s Tony without a mask at all. No quip. No “nothing is awkward between friends”. It’s Tony letting himself be comforted—something that never happens. Tony is always the one protecting Ziva, always the one making Ziva smile. Brushing her hair back. Encouraging her to talk. Bringing in Schmiel. He’s always the one who finds her and pulls her back in. In that moment, Tony face says it all. “I love you. I’ve loved you for ages. I know you. I trust you.” 

And I just fucking can’t deal with this. 

he tracked her down afterall

Here is the thing:  I don’t have a problem with the ‘fix this for him’ thing not being specifically about Tony.  And I don’t have a problem with it including Gibbs, because Ziva’s relationship with Gibbs is beautiful and important–very different from her relationship with Tony, but just as significant.  But I do have a problem with the way the episode led us (and Tony, because that was pretty mean) to think of it one way and then drew back and made it just about Gibbs.

What I would’ve liked would’ve been for the paper not to focus on Tony OR Gibbs specifically, because you know what?  Ziva’s life and all of her struggles aren’t comprised of one man.  Or two men.  

I wanted the paper to say “fix this for them.”

In which “them” includes Gibbs, Tony, Abby, McGee, Ari, her father, Vance, Ducky, Deena Bashan, Tali, and herself.  

Or how about “fix it for her,” meaning little girl Ziva, who had all these dreams that she was denied? Let’s remember that Ziva was the one having the literal breakdown from the thought that all the people she’d killed during her career had families who’d loved them. She was the one diving into the past. Who was running away from the most solid foundation of people and relationships she’d ever had. This woman was like a walking advertisement for someone in need of healing their childhood trauma, ok? She. Did. Not. Need. To. Save. Any. Man.

It tells you so much about who was writing the character of Ziva at this point, and what that person was really trying to accomplish with the continued centering of a multi-faceted female around men (which I’ve ranted about before) and tying all her major storylines to father-figures and boyfriends and her dead brother, and why ultimately Cote was justified to demand stronger writing for her character, because if a woman had been in charge of Ziva’s trajectory from at least S7 and on, everything would have been different.

Tony bolted awake in his bed, dragging in ragged breaths. Sweat beaded on his brow, plastering his hair to his forehead. His heart hammered in his chest, and the light streaming in through his bedroom window seemed far too bright. “Ziva!” he gasped, the first word in his mind escaping his lips.

There was a sleepy murmur beside him, and he felt a slender finger tracing up his arm. “What is it?”

He took in several deep breaths, trying to better orient himself. He looked to the other side of the bed, which was currently occupied by a mostly-asleep woman. Ziva was entwined in the white sheets, her brown eyes blinking slowly up at him. He smiled softly down at her as his nightmare dissipated.

“Bad dream,” he explained, laying back down on his so that he was facing Ziva. “Really bad dream.”

“Mmm? What was it?”

“You. You went back to Israel. I hunted you for months, but when I finally found you, I couldn’t convince you to come back. You stayed behind and I came back to DC alone.” He shuddered slightly, brushing a strand of dark hair out of her eyes. “Promise not to run off on me?”

Ziva smiled at him. “Never. And why would I choose to stay in Israel? More importantly, why would I give up NCIS? I left everything behind for a reason. I’m a US citizen, worked for years to become an NCIS agent. Going back to Israel, it would not make sense.”

“Yeah, you’re right,” Tony agreed, kissing her softly on the forehead. “Something like that would never happen.”

PLS AHAHAHAHAHHAHA

I’m just sitting here googling Meron, Israel and Amman, Jordan and being a little depressed because we’ll probably never know how Ziva’s mother died in Jordan

And I want to know

I want to know everything

also I want to know what on earth Ziva said at her father’s funeral about Tony that made Deena Bashan and probably a lot of other people realize that she loves him

don’t remember telling ya to sleep on the job, david. where’s dinozzo?

the school called. apparently a boy told her she could not climb on top of the monkey handles.

bars. monkey bars.

right. so she climbed on top of the monkey bars.

she break an arm?

what? no. he did. she jumped down on top of him.

I was just reminiscing on the intense questioning you get at the airport before boarding a flight to Israel (it's stressful, worse than US customs, makes you question if you even know the answers to their questions 😅) and now I'm imagining Tony (if he had gotten to the airport instead of getting shot at in his apartment) getting interrogated by the El Al airlines people on his way to see Ziva and getting increasingly flustered until he gets thrown in a holding cell for being suspicious and sloppily answering their questions 😂

And then Ziva ends up having to pull strings or come bail him out and eventually finds out that the reason he was acting weird was cause he fumbled over accidentally calling her his girlfriend and ended up in a cell 😂😂😂

😂 let's add that Eli may have flagged his passport before dying just because he could and he was a little s*it
