"Hiding from the fourth wall"~ a double drabble for A Little Drabble Do Ya!

Napoleon walked into the office he shared with his partner, and looking around; there was no sign of him. No one had seen the Russian all day.

That was when Solo heard a sneeze from beneath Kuryakin’s desk.

He peeked over the edge to see Illya huddled there with a book in one hand and a small flashlight in the other.

“Illya, why are you under your desk...and reading a book there?”

“Shuusssh,” the blond put his finger to his lips. “I am hiding from them.”

“Them who?”

“You know, the ones who like all the torture and angst.  I am overdue for another one of their sessions. They have been quiet for a while but I have a feeling they are getting ready to pounce.”

“Oooh, those ‘them.’ If they’re after you, then I could be next. Mind if I join you?” Solo’s perplexed look changed to one of concern as he crawled under his own desk.

“Be my guest.”

“You know tovarisch we can’t stay here forever.”

“I know that Napoleon, but perhaps becoming more scarce will give us a break. Do you get the hint?” Illya poked his head out, speaking to some unseen person.

Oh dear, I suspect that I may be one of those 'them', LOL. Dear IK is quite correct in his supposition. I definitely have something horrible brewing for him :-)

Wonderful, and funny, story.

LOL! I sort of guessed you'd figure out I was thinking of you when I wrote this! :D

Gland you liked the drabble. Thanks for the comment and I look forward to the 'angst'...though poor Illya doesn't.

Very nice, with an excellent last paragraph.

I can't help wondering what book Illya chose.

Perhaps a book on Houdini? Thanks for commenting and glad you enjoyed it.

HAHAHAHA, he can hide, but we will find him! Great fun!

Thank you! No they never escape our clutches do they?

I hope Janto gives him a "break." Get it? Sorry, couldn't help it. I know this was written for her.

They can't hide. She'll find them. *chuckle*

I had her in mind, but it's for all the writer's who like to put the lads through their paces. We do love our angst, don't we?

Thanks for commenting!

Brilliant - hiding under a desk may be the best plan here. Though sooner or later, they're going to need to come out for snacks. Loved the title btw.

Thank you! Not always easy to break that fourth wall but fun when it happens.

Oh my, do we really drive them into hiding? Imagine that, they aren't afraid of anyone except us ;)

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

Oh my is right. Think about the things we put these poor guys though.

Thanks for the comment!
