Prompt: Gibbs/Tony, one of them is a vampire
As soon as they pulled up to the crime scene, Tony groaned, "Oh, shit, seriously?"
McGee and Ziva exchanged looks and Gibbs raised a brow. "Something wrong, DiNozzo?"
"No, boss," Tony replied immediately, glancing around. "I'll go talk to the local LEOs, see what's goin' on."
They watched him leave for a moment before Gibbs said, "Let's get to work."

It was half an hour before Tony came back, clearly annoyed if not outright angry. His words were bitten off and sharp, and he glared at the crime scene as though it'd done him wrong. He didn't explain why, though, just told them everything the cop had said.
Then, mid-word, Tony froze. He jerked his head up, gaze darting around, and he focused in on some looky-loo. Gibbs followed his gaze to a fairly forgettable man, and Tony practically snarled, "Gotcha."
The next moment, Tony was completely back to normal. If Gibbs wasn't seeking it out, he'd have never seen the rage in Tony's eyes.

Tony showed up at the basement that night, blood beneath his fingernails.
Their investigation had gone nowhere. Whoever ripped the marine apart, he or she couldn't seem to be found, and everyone except Tony had been on edge, annoyed, and frustrated.
"Boss," Tony said quietly.
"Were you ever gonna tell me, DiNozzo?" Gibbs asked, turning to face him.
Tony shrugged. "Maybe. One day."
Gibbs nodded. "Well," he said, "c'mon in."
Smiling, Tony did.
