7. On a scale of one to ten, with one being not so good and ten being very good, how well do you: a) Kick ass? b) Make love? c) Dance? d) Sing? e) Argue? f) Drive? g) Plan parties? h) Dress? I) Take criticism? j) Cook?
A. Kick Ass – 10. There is no hesitation here. I am unsurpassed in this. Hand to hand combat. Gun. Almost any form of combat there is. Even verbal. I can kick ass, that is not a question.
B. Make Love – While I do not think this is anyone’s right and need to know but I would say a 7 or an 8.
C. Dance: 6. I am a fair dancer. It is about rhythm and grace, both of which I have.
D. Sing: 4. I am not good with what they call phrasing.
E. Argue: 10. I am very good with this. Better than most. If I can not win an argument, then please see the first of these. A. Kicking ass.
F. Drive: I think I am a 8. Tony would say a 1. Tony just can not appreciate offensive driving.
G. Plan Parties. I never have so I would say that is a 0 but if I had a choice and a chance, I am certain that I would do well, perhaps a 7.
H. Dress: 8. I do not put much time into this. What is comfortable. What is functional. That is what matters.
I. Take criticism: I will say 5. It depends on what and how.
J. Cook: 6. Fair enough. I can do most thing, if I have instructions anything.
"What is wrong with women?"
The question came, seemingly, from nowhere as Ziva suddenly lifted her head from the magazine she was idly flipping through, looking for an answer.
"That, Ms David, is a question I have been trying to answer since I was a little DiNozzo. I suspect it's that, in realising they are the reason all mankind exist, they have..." He stopped as her expression darkened. "Or I could ask what you mean and appear sympathetic,' he said, adopting just such an expression.
"I am looking at these clothes and I have no idea what these colours are. What is the difference between Alice blue and Dodger blue? Is Saddle brown just normal brown and what is Navajo white? I have seen Navajo people and they are not white but this soft shade of brown that is not, I am certain, saddle."
Tony couldn't help but laugh. "Aaaah, the delight of women's clothing colours. Men get black, white and red. Women get ebon, snow and vermillion. You just have to learn to translate. Think of it as learning a new language."
"And what is cyan then,' she asked, eyes narrowing.
"No one knows. It's a great mystery of life. Like why the dryer only gives back one sock. Or how Santa visits when you don't have a chimney."
"Oh." Ziva perked with a grin. "You mean like why I ask you questions expecting helpful answers?"
From across the room McGee chuckled. "Yes, Ziva, exactly like that."
