Fic Rec: Payment for Knowledge
Nov. 13th, 2009 11:09 pmOkay, I finally got around to watching some NCIS, first season. I'm not terribly impressed by most of the characters, or by the writing, but Ducky is awesome!
So, being the inveterate spoiler-reader I am, I've also been poking round the NCIS fic archives on FFnet. (Did you know there are 32 pages of Ducky-centric fic? That's almost four times as many as the whole MacGyver archive.) I haven't nearly got through them all yet, but I did find one I've absolutely got to rec.
Payment for Knowledge by OutCold is a poem, with rhymes and meter, and therefore comes under the heading of "fan poetry"... but it's about as much like the great majority of "fan poetry" as LOTR is like the great majority of "fantasy fiction". Seriously. It's the best fan poem I have ever read, and as soon as I have time, I'm going to memorize it.
Go, read, hug Ducky. (Not that it's particularly sad, but it is hug-inducing... and since when have we needed an excuse to hug DMc anyway?)
