Tidings Nonetheless - A Little Drabble Do Ya

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

“There are already Christmas decorations in the store windows.”

Napoleon turned to look at Illya, prepared for some long-winded diatribe on commercialism.

“They’re very pretty.”

Now Napoleon looked at Illya and wondered who was really living inside of that blond head.

“Why Illya Kuryakin, as I live and breathe…”

Illya canted his head to one side as only he could.

“As you live and breathe… and…?”

 “Nothing.”

Illya turned back to the papers on his desk.

“It’s just that …”

“You are surprised that I find the decorations pleasing.”

“Well … maybe.”

“Art is in the details, as is God.”

Artful description of the blond himself...'canting' his head to one side as only he could.' Like the direction you took this simple conversation.

Thanks. I imagine we all have that little head tilt engraved in our memories.
