Two Russians (Conclusion) - Sept 27

This 2nd chapter took a couple of days longer than I intended. To be absolutely honest, I had no idea how to resolve the cliffhanger of the first chapter. (Why am I so bad a titles?)

well wrapped up. Bravo

Thank you :-)
Was the revelation believable?

[pfrye.livejournal.com]

yes, it was. I liked that IK was nervous about the kgb being upset.

Thank you again. I got myself a little stumped when I gave myself that cliff hanger. I figured that, if U.N.C.L.E caused problems for the KGB, then they in turn would cause issues for Illya.

Good story. Would "Three Card Trick" work as a title? (only a suggestion - you don't have to agree).

I'm glad you liked it :-)

Thank you for the suggestion, but I think it's more for a story with a casino theme. Saying that, it's still better than what I came up with. I don't know what it is, but I am terrible when it comes to titles.

Yes, you're right, I was thinking of the protagonists getting each other's identity wrong.
I sometimes look at words or phrases in a story and then try looking for relevant quotations that might provide a pithy clue to a title. Doesn't always work, but you could try it.
