Life is slowly returning for many of us, but many are having to take a step backwards because of a resurgance of the insidious corona virus. We all need to take a breather, whether it's from working at home, the stress of being quarantined or under lockdown,
or perhaps having a friend or loved one stricken with the virus.

I myself am hesitant to go out and about as, like many of you, I'm in a high risk category.

That all being said, the ABC Affair Challenge is here. It can be a distraction, an amusment, pure escapism and even a little fun. So get your thinking caps on and get ready to create an adventure with our brave Men from U.N.C.L.E.

HERE'S THE RULES:

Posting should fit into the GENeral concepts of the section7mfu community, contain nothing explicit and reflect the 1960's series in style and content, and features our brave men from U.N.C.L.E.

However, that being said, there is a GEN-mature tag option for stories that contain violence, torture, angst or very mild het. So if your story falls under one of these categories, please use the appropriate tag.

Be sure to use the tag abc affair 2020 as well.

Minimum 300 words with no maximum (per chapter)

All the prompts are given today, there's one or more for each letter of the English alphabet. Post your stand alone chapters or WIP chapters in order (no skipping letters)

Where multiple prompt words are given, you can use just one or all of them.

The first chapter for letter A is due Wednesday July 8th. Chapters post every other day, so letter B is due Friday July 10th and so on. Try to keep to the schedule if you can, but if you're late posting for a letter, that's okay. We'd rather read your chapter a bit late than not at all.

The title to post in YOUR subject header is:
