HODOWE - Groundhog Day - "Two-Two"

[kitty4940.livejournal.com]

This is my first posted fic, and it is a drabble. Here goes!

"Hey, Illya…, know what today is?"

"Thursday.  Despite my recent head injury, I haven’t lost track of time…, yet."

"But do you know the date?"

"Yes…, I can read a calendar. Your point?"

"It’s Two-Two …, like you…, Section II, No. Two."

"And…?"

"I was thinking …"

"You shouldn’t overburden yourself so early in the day."

"'Groundhog' would make a great code name for you."

"Ah …, and shall I to go into hiding for the next six weeks, too?"

"Well…, no …"

"Then, no …"

"Spoilsport…"

"Yes …, it's one of the finer attributes of my beguiling personality."

Absolutely about Illya. We have David Mc Callum to thank for that as he wanted to keep the character somewhat mysterious. Ah yes Illya Kuryakin, International Man of Mystery.

Yes agree the mysterious IK has become a very full character thanks to canon and fanon, yet as full as his characterization is, he's still ethereal like shadow and fog. Maybe it't the black turtle neck...heheheheee.

There's a wonderful black and white photo of DM that Dennis Hopper made in the 60's - shades of black, with shadows and fog - it is mesmerizing, compelling and ethereal.

No surprise, this 6000 Euro photo from the Hopper collection has been sold.
