The Music Box Affair by GM (Gina Martin) - Rated PG
Fandom: THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E.
Pairing: none
Length: approx 3100 words
Author on LJ: Unknown
Author Website: http://www.solosojourn.com/unindex.htm
Why this must be read:
It's Christmas Eve 1970. Napoleon and Illya are stuck by a bad snow storm in a cabin in Newfoundland. The mission they were there to complete has gone sour. And now they are snowed in during the holidays. Which leaves Napoleon grumpy and frustrated (no gals!). While Illya has found a guitar in the cabin and is perfectly happy to strum and sing. Only not the Christmas tunes Napoleon would prefer; rather Beatles' tunes and rather philosophical ones at that.
I'll be honest and say I generally don't much care for stories that depend a great deal on the lyrics from songs to forward them. But this one is sweet if a bit melancholy.
