Summary
Alternate universe. When Pedro Hernandez ordered the hit on Gibbs' family, only Shannon died in the car crash; Kelly survived albeit with a permanent impairment. Tony DiNozzo never met Agent Gibbs in Baltimore and therefore was never recruited by him to join NCIS.
The story starts halfway through 2009, between seasons 6 and 7; Michelle Lee, the team's probie, never killed Brent Langer, who is Gibbs' SFA, and Ziva is back in Israel for good. -

Summary
"She had 9-1-1 talk her through a field tracheotomy.”
Immediately, Buck’s free hand flies towards his throat. He’s only just grazed a patch of gauze before Hen catches his hand and pulls it away.
“Abby… Is a great dispatcher, but she doesn’t have any field experience. Getting instructions over the phone and using a steak knife isn’t really a recipe for a good outcome.” Buck finally looks back over at Hen, and even in the dim light, he can see the tears forming at the corners of her eyes. “The good news is that she was able to open an airway and keep the oxygen flowing to your brain…”
Hen trails off, and Buck gives her hand a little squeeze.
“…The bad news is knife slipped, or she applied too much pressure, and the incision went much further than it should have.”
---
Abby's hand slips when giving Buck a field tracheotomy, and he ends up losing his voice. Despite him thinking so, it's not the end of the world, especially when he meets his replacement. -

Summary
Jason is used to the pain – vigilante life isn’t easy on the body – so he’s well practiced in accommodating bad days. His first knocks-him-on-his-ass migraine though? Definitely not prepared for that.

Bookmarker's Notes
Zuko stands to leave, only to waver, swaying just a little. His blood pressure shifts, and Toph can feel what’s about to happen a moment before it does.
“Someone catch him! He’s gonna –“
With a crash, the dish tumbles from suddenly limp fingers, and Zuko crumples to the ground.
“…faint,” Toph finishes.
The Gaang’s journey to trusting Zuko is anything but smooth.
