The Great Episode Challenge for October, 2015 Special Edition



This month, in honor of Halloween, I’m asking challenge takers to work a Halloween reference into their story.
Challenge # 1:

Season Two’s “The Waverly Ring Affair” introduced us to several concepts that were not mentioned again during the course of the series: Detraining, HQ exits that were not through Del Floria’s, File 40 and the Waverly Ring itself.  The challenge is to take any or all of those concepts and write a story that includes a Halloween reference.

Challenge # 2:

Season Two’s “The Bridge of Lions Affairs” has Napoleon and Illya on two prongs of the same mission, Illya in London following cats while Napoleon’s in Paris looking up the tragic Lorelei Lancer of La Sala Couture.  They ultimately find out that two scientists have discovered how to reverse aging. One interesting thing about this episode is that the viewer actually gets a time reference in that Sir Norman is age – regressed and informed by his wife a month later that he must have monthly treatments in order to maintain his youthfulness.  The challenge is what side effects (other than aging) did the rejuvenation process have?  Please include a Halloween reference.

If you have already written a story that you think addresses the challenge, by all means, please repost it.

As always, there are rules and these are the GEC’s:

Happy writing!

I want to say a big 'THANK YOU' to all of the party people who came by yesterday to celebrate the birthday girl. Section VII is a nice place to be,

and it's because of all of you.

OH MY GOSH! I forgot to post a PicFic prompt this week!

So here it is, a bit late but I think you'll have a lot of fun with it.  The posting would normally be due Tuesday October 6th, but if you have to post it after next Tuesday, that's fine.  Sorry about that!

The Fortune Cookie Affair - Part 16

((My apologies for the late posting - allergies are kicking my booty today.  Without further ado - here goes :))

Successfully restraining herself from rolling her eyes at Angelique's open flirting with Napoleon, April left handling her to the boys as she focused her attention on the unfortunate waiter.  Tremors seemed to be running through his body and she wasn't convinced they were fear related  In fact, April would have been willing to bet he was drugged or poisoned.  With Angelique in the equation, possibly both.

The edge to Napoleon's normally composed voice drew her attention back to the scene at hand.  He wasn't flirting back or even acknowledging Angelique's question, focusing fully on the waiter instead.

"He's not one of yours or one of ours. So who does he work for?"

Angelique pouted for only a second, there being no point in continuing since she knew it would have no effect whatsoever on Napoleon.

"You are no fun tonight, but I'll forgive you since I can understand not being amused at being played. Our side doesn't appreciate it either. Tell you what, darling. I've gotten two locations from him. I'll give you one location, we'll eradicate the other and then we can all get back to our usual adversarial contests without these upstarts throwing sand into our gears. Agreed?"
