a/n: This is a short little feel-good chapter, that I just felt like writing.


Sunny was beginning to grow on Ducky. Of course, Ducky had always been rather fond of animals, and could stand them for long periods of time, but Sunny was different.

Different in a good way. The snuggly penguin seemed almost human-esque. Ducky had noticed the penguin was not scared that, Gibbs had left, and Sunny snubbed all the food Ducky attempted to give him, except for a slice of berry pie.

Sunny went directly Gibbs upon his arrival, and Ducky noticed a mood change in Gibbs that second he picked up the penguin.

"Gibbs seems almost father-like with Sunny." Abby whispered to Ducky, and he shook his head in agreement.
