The Telephonist - A Little Drabble Do Ya! - May 25th

*Ring ring*

“Kuryakin . . . No, Miss Evans, I don’t know where Napoleon is.”

Illya replaced the telephone receiver and returned to his report.

*Ring ring*

“Kuryakin . . . No, Miss Sheldon, Napoleon is not here.”

This time the receiver was slammed down.

*Ring ring*

“Kuryakin . . . All I can tell you, Miss Montgomery, is that Napoleon is here somewhere.”

*Slam*

*Ring ring*

“Kuryakin . . . I neither know nor care.”

*Slam*

Snatching up his typewriter, Illya stormed from the office, just as Napoleon entered.

“Going somewhere, Tovarisch?”

“Grand Central Terminal! There’ll be fewer interruptions!”

A neat little fic, and very believable.

Mind you, I'm sure Napoleon's taken a few messages in his time.

Lucky he had the typewriter in his hands, or Napoleon would have been decked

Hahahahaa!

One ringy dingy, two ringy dingy... :D

There's still that possibility, especially if there's a typewriter involved...

Ernestine Tomlin!

Is he steamed about the interruptions or that all those woman wanting Solo and not him?
Knowing IK, it's the interruptions. Good one!

Thank you :-)
I'm sure he has, but he is a much more patient man.

He's lucky the typewriter wasn't thrown at him :-)

I had to look this up because it meant nothing to me. I'm glad I did as I found it very amusing.

I think he'd still be steamed if the women were wanting him :-) Glad you liked it.

Brilliant! But poor Illya. And I know just how he feels some days.

I wondered if you'd recognize that line. Laugh-in is the show that replaced MFU, but it was huge. I suppose it was a precursor to Saturday Night Live, or an American version of Monty Python,

Me too. This was inspired by the constant interruptions I've been getting this week.
