The FAO Schwartz Affair by RAC (NC-17)
Fandom: THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E.
Pairing: Napoleon/Illya
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: http://www.visionsofprettyboys.com/home.htm
Why this must be read: The set-up is why Napoleon chose Illya as his partner. The story is told in the first person from Napoleon's pov to a rapt audience of one, his lover, Illya, from the comfort of their bed. I'm not normally big on stories told in the first person but RAC manages to perfectly catch Napoleon's character and way of speaking. The story itself is sweet without being saccharine. Or maybe that's bittersweet when you realize all it is Napoleon gave that day, so much more than just his partnership. And then there's just the right amount of tartness from Illya to spice things up. I hear there's a sequel in the works; I sure hope so.
