Summary: First impressions are always the most important - supposedly.

~!~

The first time Willow met Abby Sciuto, she was laughing madly at a story Kate had been telling her, involving her her three brothers, a can of purple paint and the neighbour's dog.

It was only the third time they'd had lunch together, though they'd shared several more breaks and random conversations, and Willow was just starting to feel comfortable in Kate's presence. She'd started to relax and open up about her life beyond the confines of NCIS headquarters, happy to have someone to talk to who was interested in her life in a way she hadn't experienced before.

Then they were interrupted by the arrival of a dark haired, dark clothed, high heeled, collar wearing figure, who slumped down next to Willow, face first into the table.

“Hi, Abby,” Kate greeted, totally nonplussed by the abrupt, overly dramatic arrival.

“Why do men suck so much?” Abby moaned into the table, rolling her head back and forth.

“What did McGee do this time?” Kate asked primly, and Willow could tell she was trying to hold back a smile.

“The little MIT, rat fink refused to go and get me a Caf-Pow. And I really needed it, too,” she whined, rolling her head to the side to see Willow for the first time. “Hi.”

“Hello,” said Willow, biting her lips together in a desperate attempt to follow Kate's lead and keep a straight face.

“Are you Willow?” Abby asked. Willow felt the woman's gaze sharpen on her, and wondered if she'd picked it up from her uncle.

At her nod, Abby pulled herself upright in the chair, and genuine smile gracing her face as she looked Willow up and down.

“Well, I finally get to meet you,” she said, and Willow was extremely pleased to hear how happy the lab tech sounded about that. Kate had said Abby was anxious to meet her in person, but had been tied to the lab for the last little while.

“Cookie?” Willow offered, sliding a few towards Abby. They were more of the leftovers from her baking bonanza earlier in the summer. Willow still winced internally at the memory, and loved her uncle even more for having put up with her crazed need for baked goods – the freezer in the garage was still mostly full.

“These look familiar,” said Abby, taking one of the proffered cookies, smiling as she bit into it.

“Willow baked them,” announced Kate, taking a bite of her own pilfered baked good.

“So, you're Gibbs' secret cookie supplier,” drawled Abby, bouncing her head as she smiled.

Willow just smiled and blushed.

~!~

The first time Willow met Tony DiNozzo, she didn't really meet him so much as acknowledge him in passing.

He'd had the unfortunate timing to come find Kate in the lunch room, just seconds after Abby had regaled them with the tale of the latest co-ed to turn Tony down. So it was completely understandable for him to look totally lost as the three of them laughed uncontrollably in the face of his greeting.

“Boss just got a call, Kate.” he said, looking at the three of them suspiciously.

“I'm coming – 'Sex Machine',” replied Kate, emphasizing the last part with finger quotes and a little wiggle, setting the three of them off again.

DiNozzo's glare encompassed them all before he stormed out of the lunch room.

Kate followed more sedately, but Willow could tell she was still giggling as she went.

Willow grinned for the rest of the day.

~!~

The first time Willow met Director Morrow, Willow just ducked her head and blushed.

Gibbs had introduced her as 'Willow Rosenberg, my niece'.

The pride in his voice gave her a happy feeling for years to come.

~!~

The first time Willow met Ducky.....well, that's another story.

I haven't commented on this series... ever I think, but I just wanted to say that I'm totally loving it! I haven't watched many episodes of NCIS, what with school and work and stuff, but I really wish I could. So these fics give me a way to get into that world whenever I want, not just whenever I can squeeze in time to watch an episode. Wonderful writing, fabulous characterization (on the Willow end, because, as previously stated, I don't know much about the NCIS characters [though I assume they're most likely very in character as well, because you're writing them]), and very enjoyable story lines. Yay! I'm such a fangirl, really...

I'm smiling and blushing like an idiot - the cat's looking at me weird.

As always, my aim is to fangirl all of NCIS - because there aren't enough of us around (well, that aren't slashers, anyway).
And I totally understand about not having any time to watch the shows you want. I use to work a full-time and part-time job, and trying to keep up with the shows I liked was really hard - especially when I started to forget they were on until the next day.
I'm glad the characters are working for you. :)

(PS - awesome woobie!Doctor icon!!)

Thank you.

And, yeah, Ducky's starting to get irritated with his lack of screen time in this fic. *g*

Gibbs is like a giant, cuddly, growly, glaring teddy bear.

He totally rocks! *g*

Thanks.
