Man from U.N.C.L.E. Section VII

I haven't heard about any recalls on the new year, so it is still, to the best of my knowledge, 2021.  I have heard talk about impeaching 2020, in an effort to lessen the effects of all of those months of debilitating lockdowns and mental and emotional damage, in addition to the obvious physical dangers.

Oh well... sigh ... 

So, here we are, forging into the new year with suspicion and anxiety still intact.  If time were able to benefit from something like a DVR, we could just fast forward or rewind, whichever would land us in a part of the story we actually like, and might want to keep replaying.  Yes, I think I like the rewind better than the fast forward.

Okay, enough of that.  We're here to read and write fun MFU stories.  I am going to post the link once more to the Christmas Round Robin, The Trouble In Times Square Affair You can also find it on AO3, but the sequence is off a little; I couldn't figure out how to post the chapters as it has been done in the past.  More need of that rewind option.

Today is normally for drabbles, so please feel free to put down your Hundred Words.  Or, share with us some stills from one of your favorite episodes.  You can find some of those on framecaplib.com

Main thing today is to take a deep breath, envision a world where politicians do not exist, guns expel fairy dust and bad language is replaced by words like whiz bang and boo boo.

Cheers!

The Archives are a wonderful resource for reading MFU, as well as some entertaining conversations that we've had with Round Table or other similar posts.  I have two days in May of 2013 to share today.  One of them is a PicFic day, the other a photo share.  I hope you enjoy them both.

I posted some Ducky photos on mfu_scrapbook and a couple of people are unable to view them.  I thought I'd try them here and see if it's any better.  It's weird when some people have the visual and others don't.  Let me know...
I suppose someone could take these as a prompt and do a little impromptu story based on the guys being older... just a thought.

Here is a series of screencaps from the See Paris and Die Affair.  How many times did UNCLE send their men to France?

This scene from The Vulcan Affair had to be added after the fact because of the change in actors portraying the Chief.  In the pilot, Solo, another actor portrayed Mr. Allison, who was the Section I head.
A few things of note here:
It seems that early on someone decided that Kuryakin should be seen often in a white shirt with the (dare we say sexy?) shoulder holster.  This must have been a purposeful decision because it is repeated often.
Mr. Waverly is standing in the hallway.  I don't recall that he ever did this again.
Napoleon's hair is parted on the wrong side.
The light trousers on the Russian.  It was actually a nice look.
