Surprisingly Unrepentant - A little drabble do ya

"So, tovarisch. Care to tell me what happened?"

"The office caught fire."

"Ye-es. That much I can see. My question was more around why."

"Well, then, you should have asked. You need to be more precise in your interrogations."

"Illya."

"Yes, Napoleon?"

"Why did my office catch fire?"

"Our office."

"Illya..."

"I was having a...friendly debate with Dr Ndebele. Regarding the stability of our new lightweight incendiary device. He said it was not stable enough for field testing. I disagreed."

"And?"

"He was right."

"Next time, keep it in the lab."

"You cannot make an omelette without setting fire to a few eggs."

Hahaha! I can see Illya's poker face during this.

[otherhawk.livejournal.com]

Thanks! Yep, he's not giving anything away if he can help it.

Oh, is that a Castle icon btw? I like that show.

[meneleth.livejournal.com]

Yes, we haven't watched Castle much this season but it's been a favorite of ours.

Better watch those egg, they might wind up in Illya's face. He reminds me of my daughter, that's how she use to avoid answering how things happens. Made me laugh

[otherhawk.livejournal.com]

Yep, he's evading everything. Thank you!

Chuckle....THAT was good! The dry wit was priceless.

[otherhawk.livejournal.com]

Oh, thank you! That's pretty much what I was trying for.

His dodging technique is priceless.

[otherhawk.livejournal.com]

And pretty much completely ineffective....

You just know he said that last line with a dead-pan tone. Good one :-)

[otherhawk.livejournal.com]

Yep - we all know that tone, I think. Thanks!

Love the last line. Indeed, all the lines. Thank you.

[otherhawk.livejournal.com]

Thank you! Wasn't sure about the last line, so I'm glad you liked it.
