Illya, still holding the armed grenade far too casually, merely shrugged. "We wanted it to be believable, or he would have called our bluff."
"In this case, I'd say there's such a thing as too realistic a charade. Those things are called 'safety' pins for a reason."
Illya reinserted the pin with a sigh. "Next time we need to stop a THRUSH agent from irradiating a city, I'll be sure to follow proper safety protocols."
Napoleon purposefully ignored the sarcasm. "That'd be appreciated."
