As Illya would say, 'We're all in the soup together'.

We talked about this last week and now it's a Thing.  We will be having a Long Story challenge with a minimum word count of 5000.  The show premiered on September 22, 1964, which leads me to suggest we begin posting on September 22, 2019. That's a 55 year Anniversary, and I think an appropriate date for us to shoot for.
The stories should be:

• Gen-centric (canonesque in nature, neither Het nor Slash)


• Minimum 5000 words


• Principle characters are Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin.  Other characters from the show and original characters are welcome, but our two heroes should carry the stories.

Here's an interesting little article to add to our trivia file: We TV
Let's write some words people!
Two months, that's only around 85 words a day.
We can do this!

I have a quick question about the 'canonesque in nature' part.

As I said last week, my piece is a stitching together (and massive expansion) of two of my earlier pieces. Without giving the plot away, it is based on green jello and Illya's dislike of medical. These themes are very much 'fanon' rather than canon. Will this be a problem?

Green jello is always ok :D . By canon I'm referring more to the major components of the series, the way it came off from the minds of the writers.
The things that wouldn't be canon are things that are inconsistent with the show and how the characters are portrayed.
You know, what we write here.
I'm really looking forward to reading your story, and happy that you have one in the works.
