Virtue! Well, our guys have that in spades. Vive le UNCLE!

The Virtue Affair.  Was it an accident that our two spies should end up both wearing white?  They are UNCLE's white knights, after all, and even though they came to be in these garments more by chance than cunning, here they are all in white, ready to be victors who are the epitome of courageous virtue.

Virtue? Oh, yes, virtue...

They're beautiful... Though, when I see the Blond, "virtue" isn't my first thought...
Er.... Sorry....

Courage, virtue... it's relative ;)

He he.. Did you notice? Illya is watching Napoleon's face, but Napoleon clearly looks at Illya's gun... "Bigger than mine!" (and this is an innocent statement)

:D You are all innocence.
I also think the height difference makes it interesting. I think a case can be made for them being instructed to look each other in the eyes, and be grimm. It's all very serious, but they look wonderful. Napoleon is very chiseled to Illya's more stubborn glare.

Napoleon's thought: Gees, Illya, your glare almost scares me!

White was part of the whole virtue scenario, but you make an interesting point about their being "white knights".

In "Guioco Piano", Napoleon told Gervaise Ravel that he had a white knight watching his queen.

Yes, the Blond as a white knight, very literary allusion to his appearance. Also in Alexander the Greater, Illya is referred to as Solo's 'knight'. That seems to be a continuing theme.

Now you know how I got the idea for Uncle Alex and the 'Nights' at the Round Table - a bit of word play on the theme of the agents as being Waverly's knights of the round table and the late night meetings at the round table! :)

I truly loved how Napoleon looked in VIRTUE.

Course I always love how Napoleon looks... [wink]

This is fantastic photo; it really shows them as the opposites they are, from all the best angles.
