Alatri Fiction

Sorry, most of the fics were challenge fics with later reveals and I forgot to post them all here too. Plus, I think more of you are here for the Smallville, so I haven't been posting the MFU as much when they're up. But with Clexmas, there's Smallville here too, so worth a post. :)

I'm starting to get my life back. (And my health.) I told my volunteer organization I wasn't going to do it another year, and I still have a few months to go, but it's a great relief to get that off. Back to fic and fandom! Much more of an interesting and happy world.

Under a cut just because there's nine of them. o.o Plus some older ones.

Not to Talk

Man From UNCLE, tv series
gen or slash, PG for theme, ambiguously darkfic, 1.5k.

In their line of work, they never talked about certain things. That didn’t mean those possibilities weren’t something they faced every day.

Warnings: POSSIBLE DEATH FIC – AMBIGUOUS ENDING

Notes: This is a bit of darkfic, with an ambiguous ending. Not my normal sort of cup of tea, I’ll admit. I like happier endings. However, in the middle of a recent post by Rallamajoop (a marvelous piece reviewing the UNCLE tv series for the new viewer, going over premise, characters, the slash, the appeal, 50 years on), there’s a line about “not talking about it is simply how they deal with the ever-present threat that one or both of them could die in the line of duty”. It’s just one line out of a lot of meta about many, many things... but it stuck with me. I woke up with this ficlet running through my mind and while I normally redirect the darker ones into something lighter... after it persisted for the day, I decided it had to be written. Lighter fics coming another time. And, since the ending IS ambiguous... you can choose which way you want it to go. So it doesn’t have to be... that’s just one way it might go. As always, with them.

(Also, can be read as either gen or slash - just like the series ^^)

Man, I really sucked at posting these to the fic journal this year. Or last, rather. I suspect it's because mentally I tend to think of this as the Smallville posting area and these are all MFU fics. Plus, these were all done on time crunches during NaNo and for a bingo deadline. But if I'm going to have a fic journal, I really need to *use* the fic journal. Anyhow, here's the last of 2015:


Not Dead Yet
After Napoleon is captured and rendered helpless by a drug, Illya rescues him and keeps him safe through the recovery. Much cuddling ensues.

Wanting Too Much
A young soldier turned thief after the war, Napoleon goes to a black-market auction to sell a valuable painting... and comes away with something he didn't intend to buy – a Russian KGB agent. After an interesting night where they get to know each other, the next day finds them determined to do something to right some wrongs... but not all wrongs can be corrected that easily. As they work together, Napoleon learns some hard truths... but also comes away at the end with something more valuable than a painting.

These next four were done for the bingo settings card in GYWO - I was pushing the deadline on them... ^^;

Art Lessons
Napoleon gets carried away while discussing art, and then Illya teaches him a lesson he won’t soon forget. About life, and history, and have and have not... and what friends can do for each other.

Chefs and Spies
While he’s away, Solo’s team devises a cover for him on their next mission that he’s not at all happy about.

Winter Mistress
Escaping from the enemy means facing the elements, and they can be even more dangerous, without meaning to. Napoleon and Illya do what they can for another day.

(Two versions of same story in the chapters. I was experimenting with TMFU and MFU differences.)

Spies and Thrush Drugs
Illya is given a drug by Thrush that not only affects him, but also those around him. Napoleon finds this out too late. It was, however, quite enjoyable. And they’ve had worse Thrush drugs.
