A/N: The Dominoes challenge goes something like this: take a pairing from Twisting the Hellmouth's Fic-for-All pairings list (for example Buffy/Harry Potter). Then, for the next chapter, use the same crossover character, but a different Buffy character (so the end result would be something like Buffy/Harry, Harry/Giles, Giles/Bella Swan, Bella/Spike, Spike/Gibbs, Gibbs/Willow, so forth & etc.) My poor, misguided mind decided to try and make them all in the same ginormous multiverse.

"My God, that is some fine craftsmanship, isn't it McGee?" Tony DiNozzo looked the blonde up and down a few more times as she leaned over to pick up whatever had fallen.

"I've never seen anything like it," NCIS Agent Timothy McGee nodded, for once agreeing with the other agent. "The technology alone is light years ahead of all the other manufacturers -"

"Probie say what?" Tony whipped around to face him. "Manufacturers?"

"Yeah. She's one of the exhibits, Tony."

"Ah, I see where you're mistaken, McStunted. That over there is what we normals like to call a 'woman'. You, being the McGeek that you are, have no previous knowledge of the elusive creature," Tony grinned at him and turned to find the pretty blonde just behind him.

"And that'll put marzipan in your pie-plate, bingo!"

"Gah! Buffy?" Tony reared back, getting horrible flashbacks of the first time he hit on his kid sister's half-sister. "I'm gonna be scarred for life!"

"You know Buffy!" The Not-Buffy clapped her hands out of tune. "I was designed from her, but I'm not her. I'm Buffybot. Who are you?"

"I'm about to be ill."

"It is nice to meet you, About to Be Ill."
