Gear Up 2 - an NCIS gen zine

Gear Up 2 - an NCIS Gen Zine


This is an NCIS gen zine so don't be peeking around for Jack and Daniel. It's a first for us, to have an entire zine devoted to a fandom other than SG1. The thing the two have in common, it seems to me as an outsider seeing these
stories for the first time is the 'team as family' aspect we all love so well. After the first set of zines, I started watching and have become a great fan of the show and especially the fiction.

When I published the first set of zines, I’d never really paid attention to the show and characters. It was the stories in the first zines that led me to view the series for the first time, and seek out other stories to find a rich base of talented authors and artists who truly love the characters. SG1 remains my first active fandom love and I’ll never leave them behind, but now there are more characters who inspire me and that can only be a good thing. ;)
Once again, Annie was the driving force to get this done. Don’t know what I’d do without you, hon. Special thanks to Rose Malmaison who went above and beyond to help this zine become complete.

Boat, Bourbon, Basement 2- an NCIS Slash Zine

This is an NCIS slash zine so don’t be peeking around for Jack and Daniel. It’s a first for us, to have an entire slash zine devoted to a fandom other than SG1. The thing the two have in common, it seems to me as an outsider seeing these stories for the first time is the ‘team as family’ aspect we all love so well – as well as several options for believable slash pairings.

When I published the first set of zines, I’d never really paid attention to the show and characters. It was the stories in the first zines that led me to view the series for the first time, and seek out other stories to find a rich base of talented authors and artists who truly love the characters. I now own the box sets. I’ve also written my first two stories for the fandom (one in this zine and another in the gen volume). SG1 remains my first active fandom love and I’ll never leave them behind, but now there are more characters who inspire me and that can only be a good thing. ;)
Once again, Annie was the driving force to get this done. Don’t know what I’d do without you, hon.

Thanks also to all the authors and artists who stepped up to make this zine a reality. You’ve done amazing work.

163 pages, 67911 words. 12 pt Book Antiqua, .75 margins All stories Gibbs/DiNozzo except Secrets (DiNozzo/McGee) ratings from PG to NC17.

Cover by JayEm. Story art by Annie, Lyn, Rose Malmaison, Cheryl, and JayEm.



Stories included:



Perfecto by Devra - So what was the real story behind Tony’s missing cell phone and Gibbs’ glasses? Post Baltimore.

Secrets by Annie & Lyn - Tony’s got a secret. Tony/Tim

Hell of a Thing by JayEm - Gibbs notices Tony's eyes.

Sleepless, but not in Seattle by Lyn – Tony’s been distracted

Slippery When Wet by Devra - Tony was able to do a lot of things in the dark. Sleep. Have sex. Jerk off. Answer the telephone. Shut off a ringing alarm.

Falling Down by Rose Malmaison - After Tony is hurt in an undercover op, Gibbs makes it his personal business to take care of his agent. Tony discovers he's attracted to his boss and invites him to spend a weekend away with him. Novella Length.

TKO by Marzipan77 - Amanda Reed had opened a crack in Tony’s armor, armor that Tony had worn since a young man lost his first love to a horrible disease and lost his trust and loyalty to corrupt, homophobic men who claimed to be his partners. And, blow after blow, some more of the playboy, the shallow, happy idiot falls away and the depth of his longing is revealed. And leaves him open, once again, to hurt, to desire, and, maybe, to love. The story takes place in Season One, directly following “Missing,” and continuing through an alternate “Split Decision.” Novella Length.
