(That's Nina Foch in the pic there; she played Ducky's mum in NCIS, since Ducky is Illya in my timeline, I headcannoned her as really Napoleon's mother...)

Thank you!

I love that you used Ms. Foch as Napoleon's mother. In her younger days she's perfect for the role.

Indeed, the resemblance is quite striking!

Thank you for this fine entry. I could hear George Sanders’ delicious voice in your dialogue. And I can just see Napoleon announcing You’re deposed to Partridge. :)
