This does fit well into canon.

Excellent!! I had no idea where this was going but I would never have guessed that. It makes sense that Mr Waverly would be acqauinted with that man.

I think I know that girl on reception. I also know that Illya won't be taking her straight home after their date ;-)

(I must also commend Napoleon. Very few people from Englan, let alone America, can pinpoint the Crook accent that accurately :-D )

Thank you so much! That is an ultimate compliment!

Thank you! I was trying to keep the reader guessing for a bit as to who it was. Also keeping the identity of the visitor somewhat anonymous, but anyone acquainted with the man's public faux pas could guess who he was, especially with the exact quote about 'his Russian family.'

I knew of the Greece and Denmark connections, but didn't know about Russia. Learned something new.

I figured Napoleon might remember the receptionist's accent, but given he flirts with so many ladies, keeping their names straight might be tough considering he's not in London a lot. This time Illya beat him out...lucky Dawn (in oh so many ways) :D

Hope that made you smile...
