The Dangling Conversation by Evan Nicholas (PG-13)
For my last recommendations, I'll be featuring stories that do an excellent job of exploring the gradual nature of change, especially when it requires a change of heart.

Pairing: Napoleon Solo/Illya Kuryakin

I fell in love with this delightful story from its opening sentence:
It occurred to Illya, hanging by his ankles, swaddled in chains above a pit of - he could barely believe it - crocodiles, that there was something wrong with his life.Not surprisingly, Illya decides he needs to make some changes. His attempts to fix his life between missions, and figure out what it all means in an ongoing conversation with his partner emulates the TV show at its very best. The absurdity of their lives as U.N.C.L.E. agents is counterbalanced by the wry seriousness and good humour of both men. Such is Evan's talent, you can easily believe that he's simply showing you what was happening to Napoleon and Illya when the cameras weren't rolling.
