Oh, this is good, good fic- very much what I want out of a MUNCLE story! It tells the tale (from Napoleon’s POV) of how Illya and Napoleon first met and came to work together. Illya’s scientific side is on full display, as he’s brought into U.N.C.L.E. as a research- one of the guys who designs all of those nifty little gadgets they use. Not everyone is happy to have a ‘commie’ working in HQ, but Napoleon is more than willing to welcome him on board. Illya- to no one’s surprise- is VERY good at what he does. But is research all the cagey Russian is up to? You’ll have to read to find out. I really loved the first half of this story- excellent characterizations (I enjoy the wry, witty, competent portrayal of Illya) combined with plenty of plot and action. The second half gets more into the slashy side of things and I’d pretty much guessed where the plot was going, but it’s well written and still has plenty of action (of all kinds!). Good, good fic. Very nice Illya.
