And They Were Quarantined

Prompt two from way back in March or April. At least I think this was a prompt? The original idea was angsty, but I barely managed to write this drivel, so the angst idea would’ve been even worse. Had fun writing the draft, kinda gave up on editing... Also, I stole a bunch of dialogue from my other OTP.

As always, avoiding post s10 canon like the plague, so, I don’t know late s10 if it was set in 2020?

Also on FF and AO3

Word count: 809

“McCovid, you’re alive!” Tony’s jaw tensed as his paler than usual co-worker appeared on the screen, exhaustion and misery written all over his face. “How are you? Does Delilah have one of those nurse’s outfits, bet that would get you back to health in no time. Feel free to send me a picture, of Delilah, not you,” he rambled. Shifting slightly, he continued to fake a smile and a lightness he did not feel.

McGee attempted to roll his eyes and coughed briefly. “We’re fine.”

“Yeah, I can tell, there’s like half an inch of color on your left cheek. Definitely looking better than last time I saw you, if you hadn’t blinked when you did I’d’ve called Ducky.”

McGee stared at him blankly, a little too blankly. “What do you want?”

“Nothing, just checking in on my quarantined teammates. All of them, don’t think you’re getting special attention for possibly infecting the whole team.”

“You’re going to make me pay for you having to quarantine all by yourself, aren’t you?”

He scoffed, feeling some light-heartedness seeping into the situation. “I am an adult, Tim, I can survive a few weeks by myself, besides-“ The sound of cutlery hitting the floor drew his attention away from the screen. He glared.

“What was that?” McGee said more lively than he had sounded for days.

Tony faced the laptop and raised his eyebrows. “Hmm? Oh, that was.” He glanced away again briefly. “My cat.”

McGee narrowed his eyes. “You don’t have a cat.”

He turned his attention to the kitchen, just in time to see another pair of eyes narrowing at him. “Found her scratching all panicky at the door this morning, looking disheveled, crazy matted hair-“

A wet kitchen towel hit him square in the face. By the time he had placed the towel on the coffee table she had slid onto the couch next to him with the speed and grace of a cat. Her piercing eyes made him forget the gravity of the situation, sending a tingle down his spine.

“Hello, Tim,” she said, sights firmly trained on Tony.

“Ziva? Why are you…” McGee’s voice sounded faint and confused. “You’re not supposed to…” He sighed in defeat, then coughed a few times.

Ziva turned towards the laptop. “Oh, Tony dropped his phone in the bath so we decided to quarantine together.”

McGee blinked slowly, and scrunched up his face. “I…you were taking a bath together?”

She chuckled and held Tony’s gaze again. “Trust me, when I share a bath with someone there is no need for.” She licked her lips as her gaze flicked to his mouth. “Technological distractions.”

“That…what?”

With great effort, Tony turned his attention back to his ill co-worker. At the bewildered look on McGee’s face, he explained, “We were on the phone when I dropped it in the water, Ziva panicked and rushed over here-“

“I did not panic.” She jabbed his chest with a finger. “You started coughing and then the line went dead, I did what any good partner would do.”

He raised his eyebrows. “Break quarantine instead of calling me on my landline?”

She opened and closed her mouth, then glared at him. “I did not panic.”

“I saw your face, Ziva,” he egged her on, as if they hadn’t already had this conversation hours ago.

“When I panic, I make this face.” She stared at him blankly.

The video call all but forgotten, he grinned, pretended she hadn’t looked ready to annihilate Death itself when she had burst through his front door earlier, and deadpanned, “That was the face.”

“You did not see that face,” she insisted, a gleam in her eyes.

“I saw that face.” He smiled warmly, pleased at his 10 AM decision to give in to self-indulgence and soak in the tub while sipping leftover wine. And while choking on the wine when Ziva made him laugh over the phone hadn’t been part of the plan, given the outcome, he’d gladly do it all over again. Tucking a strand of hair behind her ear, he said, “You didn’t bring a hair tie?”

She looked him up and down, a sly smile appearing on her lips. “I didn’t bring anything.”

The laptop’s speaker crackled. “I feel nauseated.”

Tony watched McGee become even paler. “Try eating something, maybe that’ll settle your stomach.”

McGee glared back at him.

“Do you even have any food, other than what we had for lunch?” Ziva glanced towards the kitchen, knowing full well the only thing left in the fridge was alcohol.

“If you end up cannibalizing each other I’m not dealing with the crime scene,”

Tony moved closer to Ziva, ignoring his partner’s comment. “I’m sure I’ll find a way to.” He licked, then bit, his bottom lip. “Satisfy your appetite.”

“I’m gonna be sick,” McGee said, right before the screen went black.

JEMIZZY

Who’s the best gift giver? Do they go in on gifts or do it separately?  Hmmm they’re all pretty basic lmao but when Jack tries to be romantic he can get really into the gifts. They all insist on giving gifts separately though.

Sleeping arrangements: Do they push the beds together? Who takes all of the blankets in bed? Who’s practically draped over the others? Oh well heyyy they canonically have one bed! Jack and Izzy usually fight over the blankets and Izzy likes to roll herself up into a blanket burrito. They only drape themselves over each other when they’re high and tangled up in each other - otherwise, they’re pretty solid about that. 

Who is always in the middle in triad cases? Oh gosh I think it’s Izzy?

How do date nights look like? Sitting at home watching movies playing rock music and getting high lmao. Since they’re more public now they go to the bar and restaurants, and always split the desserts in the end bc they’re corny af. 

Do any members get jealous? How do they act when they do? Of course they do lmao. Jack is the one who’s more obnoxious about it, but they all get jealous 

Who asked who out? How was the first date(s)? Well...this is already canon too lmao 

Who brings home stray pets and convinces the others to keep them? Emma does this surprisingly. Jack immediately thought it was Izzy and she was #offended.  

Who are the reckless ones that make Bad Decisions? Who are the sensible ones who follow after them to make sure they don’t die? lmao they’re all reckless no one in this group is really sensible so I’m surprised they’re actually functioning as human beings. 

Who’s the one who remembers everyone’s favorite orders at cafes/restaurants?  Emma and Izzy are pretty good at remembering parts of everyone’s favorite orders, so together they’re pretty bomb at this.

Would/do they have kids? Who are the Responsible Parents, who are the Cool Parents™ to the polywogs? They’ll definitely have kids! Jack is the dork parent, and Emma and Izzy kind of switch between responsible and cool - Izzy is the one who’s usually more Cool, but Jack and Emma can be pushovers or tricked by their kids so Izzy will roll her eyes, go, “You guys are so dumb” and scold their kid.

In your Lawyer Opinion(TM), how do you think Laurel felt about law school and the various subjects she would've had to study?

she probably loved and hated family law because when she did divorce her parents were going through it. and with law you have to memorise a lot of cases for exams. so she probably hated that. but was also very good at it because she had good memory. 

criminal law was her fave, tho, because she got to talk about the morality of different crimes and she could argue with her male classmates who said things like how most people cried rape or other dumb things like that. (and yes I have heard my classmates say that before in law school.)

she probably found commercial law very interesting, which is why she was seriously considering taking the corporate job. she’s good at maths, so she was into economics and stuff like that. 

generally tho I think laurel is a big nerd, so she found the reading okay and interesting at times. so in other words the total opposite of me :P 

honesty hour - ask me anything

I haven't watched this week's episode yet but alternatively: Jacqueline Carlyle as a polyamorous bisexual/pansexual

while this works better with canon and is still wonderful and I am 7474747377373743% in favour of polyamorous jacqueline carlyle i personally headcanon her as a lesbian so strongly shdhhdjdj

One time per YEAR???

I mean, I haven’t really kept a record of my crushes/squishes/whatever-feelings… but yeah, about once a year for the last few years (including celebrity “crushes”):D why, is that unusual? How often do you get crushes/squishes/whatever? (This goes out to all of you, btw, which is why I’m replying publicly^^ how often do you get crushes?)

vanilla orange strawberry because I am thirsty for attention Janie

asdfjkl and attention you will RECEIVE!

vanilla - I’m gonna go down a weird route of complimenting bc I love our rambles and screaming over pretty girls but I also really appreciate that we can disagree or talk about misunderstandings or whatnot and be fine. I think it’s really hard because it’s well, always hard talking about misunderstandings or disagreements with friends, even moreso when it’s online and you can’t figure out tone, but we’ve also been friends for a really long time now (god we’ve been mutuals for what? 8 years now and talking for 6???) and I think we do a pretty good job. Sure, sometimes we’ll get annoyed or sometimes we go down a LOOONG rabbit hole of “wait, what on Earth were you trying to say” lmaoooo but I think we also do a good job of disagreeing and doing that without hurt or accusing and apologizing if we need to. Like I feel like I have the freedom and ability to freely disagree with you at times or discuss if I’m confused about something or feel hurt about something and I’m just?? Very grateful that our friendship allows for that open and honest communication. 

orange - my opinion of you now and our status 

I mean god you’re like. Okay so my church friends are my oldest friends HAHAH but you’re probably one of my oldest friends who I wasn’t raised with who I’ve also kept in contact with? Like dude, you’ve been my friend since I was like....16? You were friends with me while I was still struggling with my identity, when I was angry at absolutely everything in the world, I don’t remember how long we’ve been talking exactly but you’ve been there for a lot of it and I appreciate it.

strawberry - I secretly think...

Honestly what would I secretly think that I haven’t already told you haha <3 XD 

Original ask

Mutuals (and other buds) send me something from there! :)
