In early season 14 when Agent Alex Quinn overhears that Clayton Reeves volunteered for Operation Willoughby she called it a "suicide mission" noting that the mission had even been pushed back 6 months because they weren't able to find anyone willing to volunteer for it.
It just makes Clayton's death that much more heartbreaking. He lived through Operation Willoughby and the capture/death of Chen. Something that NO ONE believed possible.
Only to die protecting Abby after a fun night out just when he was settling in nicely with his new found family.

A/N: Another fic for @soheavyaburden ‘s A Year Of Whump.
Alex smiles when she finds the horse barn. May is cleaning down a horse, her horse and looks relaxed in her jeans and flannel shirt. It’s her day off but Alex has always known May loves her horses too much to leave them.
“You look happy…”
The comment is mild even as she comes closer, noting the way the horse nuzzles May with a smile, letting the horse sniff her hand before gently stroking the horses’ neck just under his mane.
“Hey bud…”
“He likes you…”
May’s voice is low, slightly husky and Alex smiles, glancing across at May.
“I’m sorry about your friend…”
“Yeah. He was a good sort…”
“Gibbs said his horse was a little… mopey?”
“Yeah… still don’t know how he got the horse back on his feet.”
“He does that… are you okay?”
“Yeah. Mostly.”
“Well, if you need to talk… I’m always here.”
Erica Borin hates working under her sister Abi, so when the chance comes to work with NCIS, she jumps at it, she just doesn’t expect to be replacing Nick Torres when he goes undercover, finding herself working closely undercover with Alex Quinn.... Can she really trust her heart? Does she dare take a risk?
