Inspiration comes from strange places...

Once in a while you run across something truly funny.  I have cut out comics that made me laugh out loud, only to tuck them away in a book or a box and discover them years later.  This is one of them, and after laughing at it again, I thought of our daring duo.  I did, which shows how much of my attention is drawn to Napoleon and Illya, even when I'm not writing them.
So, here we have a situation that reminded me of the Birds and Bees Affair; Illya and his big crush on the girl in the honey shop.  Now I'm wondering if there was a little humor built into that scenario, like a honey trap... Illya, love, girl... Anyway...
Is Illya a little like Tarzan? He seems confident most of the time, and yet there is that hesitation, the shy smile.
If it inspires you to write a little something, please do so and tag it impromptu challenge.

glennagirl generously offered to let me post an intro to the Down the Chimney Affair here on section7mfu. This is a winter holiday fic exchange that the muncle community has run for the past 15 years. It is hosted on the Archive of Our Own.

Down the Chimney Affair is open to gen fic, het fic, slash fic and even threesomes (given the 2015 movie). You are free to choose to receive and give whatever category and rating of fic you prefer, and all stories are clearly marked as to category and rating. We also welcome anyone interested in writing and receiving stories that focus on the movie characters.

We would LOVE to have recent members of this community come and check out the FAQs and Rules. Here's the link to Down the Chimney Affair 2018 where you will find all the information you need, as well as the Sign-Up Form, if you choose to participate.

If you want to check out the 100+ stories that have been written in the past for this gift exchange, here's a link to the master collection to get you started.

Hope you enjoy the stories and choose to participate in our 15th year of celebrating Illya and Napoleon, those wonderful Men from U.N.C.L.E.!
