Rapunzillya; or, A Familiar Fairy Tale by cosmosmariner (PG for male on male kissing)

Hello all. I will be sharing some of my favorite Man From Uncle fics with you this month. If I am able to do things the way I’ve planned, you will see a mixture of Gen, Humor, and Slash. Wednesdays will be Humor day in honor of the hump day. Humor may be either gen or slash. This week’s story is one that was created during mfuyum’s Valentine Day event. I didn’t write it although the prompt for the story was my idea. It’s a re-working of Rapunzel. It is what I call shonen-ai. Meaning that while it involves two men who fall in love with each other, there are no graphic descriptions of sex, actually no direct mention of it at all just talk of love and kissing. Hope it makes you giggle!


Fandom: MAN FROM UNCLE
Pairing: Napoleon/Illya
Length: short
Author on LJ: cosmosmariner
Author Website: her fan fiction
Why this must be read:
This is a really fun, short and sweet story that is a more modern telling of Rapunzel. It’s very definitely a ‘fractured fairy tale’. It reminds me of the best cartoons – those that had so many jokes that only the adults would understand and yet were still funny to children.
