"I blame you for this entirely."

Napoleon looked across the room towards his partner as he rubbed uncomfortably at the red marks on his arms and legs. And chose to say nothing.

"Head for the trees, you said," Illya went on through gritted teeth. "They will never find us there, you said."

"They didn't," he pointed out.

"Yes," Illya agreed significantly. "They didn't."

He sighed. "I wasn't the one who ran smack into the wasp nest," he pointed out plaintively.

Illya just glared at him and pointedly pulled out the remains of a stinger from his neck.

Napoleon winced.

Not a happy partner. Watch out Napoleon

Yeah, think he's going to be hearing about this for a while!

Head for the trees....yup - thought it might be poison oak/ivy but wasps are much worse....

I've been fortunate enough to never encounter poison ivy, but I can't imagine it's much worse than wasps.

Ouch! Poor IK. That's going to hurt for a long time. Great drabble.

Thanks! He's probably fortunate he isn't allergic.

Owwww, hiss. That brings back memories!

Yup! I've not been stung in years, but I remember how much it hurt. And then itched.

I was never stung in my entire life and then 3 1/2 years ago there was an infestation of yellow jackets near our apartment doors. I had to run just to get inside. I could be just standing several feet away and the beasts would land on me and ZAP!

My neighbor and I bought some sort of bug spray, and then we hit the nest with a high powered water spray...from a safe distance.

The cats had a field day with one of the buggers got inside the apartment My fearless kitties saved the day!
