WRITER'S AND READER'S CHOICE!

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

Here it is Saturday again. Where did the week go? Time flies I guess when you're writing
and raading stories about our brave Man from U.N.C.L.E.

Why not rec some of your favorite MFU stories that you've written, or those of your favorite
writers?

Writer's and Reader's Choice gives you an opportunity to get your stories
out there to be read again, as sometimes they just get lost in the cyber world.

Lots of tales out there that people haven't read at all, or for a long time.

Writers, post links to your fics or repost them in full
Readers, pick your favorite stories from the world of the Man from U.N.C.L.E.
and post a link to them.

"A THRUSH and his fez are seldom parted" by mrua7 for WRITER'S AND READER'S CHOICE!

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

A longer read for the weekend.  I realized I started posting this back in 2013 just 8 days before I had my stroke. Wow.

SUMMARY:
Napoleon and Illya again find themselves on a mission to again steal THRUSH's Triad Codes, and as always seems to be the case, the mission becomes much more complicated than they expected. Nigerian revolutionaries, Russians and of course T.H.R.U.S.H. all complicate matters.

"The Male Order Affair" by glennagirl for WRITER'S AND READER'S CHOICE!

[mrua7.livejournal.com]

Nothing like one of Glennagirl's longer stories! This is a little longer read, and a good hurt/comfort story.

Summary:
The Russian is missing, along with the formula for a deadly virus. The trail is too cold for Napoleon, deadly cold for Illya.

Short Affair Challenge - Huddlescombe Society for the Prevention of Moral Turpitude - February 13th

[ssclassof56.livejournal.com]

Prompts: Shake / white
Word Count: ~700
Note: What was meant to be a few sentence opening to this week's prompt took on a life of its own. It worked well as a late entry for a previous challenge. I hope to continue the original story idea, a bit less floridly, on Monday.


Mrs. E. J. Harriman of Huddlescombe by the Sea, her beady eyes glinting with curiosity, paused to observe the taxicab that pulled up in front of the Wollecott Grand Hotel. “Gerald!” she bellowed, as her terrier yipped frantically and strained at his leash.

The rear door swung open. Haltingly, with labored movements, two men climbed out of the taxi. They stood on the public sidewalk, unashamed of their dishevelment, squinting resentfully at the pure rays of late morning sunshine. A martial gleam blazed in Mrs. Harriman’s eyes. She scooped up Gerald, gathering the terrier to her ample bosom, and marched upon the strangers.

Reader's and Writer's Choice: Aching by Akane42me

Aching


This story revolves around Napoleon and an UNCLE pharmacist.  Their discussion of what ails Napoleon goes so far beyond the spoken words and reveals the man inside the agent is human.  Very touching and brilliantly written.
