An Addams Affair by Cynara (PG-13)

Firstly, can I just say that this is weird. I mean seven shades of weird and yet utterly brilliant at the same time.

Fandom: THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E./The Addams Family (yes, you did just read that right)
Length: 5,707 words
Pairing: Napoleon Solo/Illya Kuryakin
Author on LJ: Not sure
Author Website: I found this one on the Wonderful World of Make Believe

Why this must be read:

Because it's just so off the wall. I mean, Crossovers are usually at least the same sort of genre, like Man from UNCLE and say, The Professionals (and yes, I probably could have picked one of those), but this one is just so.....out there! And it's even slash (albeit very light)!

The Addams' remain true throughout the fic despite the even weirder than usual circumstances, and Napoleon and Illya are suitably bemused by the whole thing (although I love how Illya just takes a load of it in his stride).
There is action and some sort of a semi-plausible plot (remember the hiccup gas people!), so I'm reccing this. It's hilarious and come on, who wouldn't want to see Illya squaring up against Lurch....read on and prepare for some utter craziness :-)

He did! Remember that fight scene in "The Napoleon's Tomb Affair"? That was the same guy who played Lurch - and both of them did their own stunts on that scene too. (It's one of my all-time favorites as well you know.)

You weren't in my brain to remind me! :-)
My brain has gone rather mushy with all this rain and your being under the weather didn't help out your brain cell much either.

Regular service will resume shortly.
