Napoleon and Illya...

Can anyone here recommend any Man from U.N.C.L.E fic? Slash preferably, but anything good will do.

I've already read the wonderful story Botticelli by Elizabeth Bear; best thing I've read in ages.

If you know any Man from U.N.C.L.E. sites or communtities, that would be good, too.

Hi!

There are several good comms over on LJ if you're interested:

The Man from UNCLE Slash Comm: http://community.livejournal.com/muncle

The Uncle Canteen: http://community.livejournal.com/mfu_canteen

Network Command: http://community.livejournal.com/network_command

Man from UNCLE Fantasies: http://community.livejournal.com/uncle_fantasies

I don't know of anything on Dreamwidth at the moment.

Sorry about the ugly links.

[fajrdrako]

Thank you! I can see some happy browsing in my near future.

I seem to have saved a bunch, but I can't remember why each was saved and don't have time to go over them and reread. Do you want a list of names anyway? It'll be half-blind recs, in a way. I can do that today or tomorrow.


I noticed you didn't get many specific recs, here or on lj, just links to comms and archives :(

[fajrdrako]

Yes, I'd love to see your list.

I do like browsing archives, but I particularly like specific recs. Any would be welcome.

[baronjanus]

I'm going over some... dear god, they're bad.

[baronjanus]

okay, I saved these so long ago, I can't remember what's in any of them. So consider it a blind rec; they're long and I saved them, so we know they're at least good enough that I bothered reading, right?

Alas, I am at work, stealing time on my Blackberry. No chat for the likes of me.

Also, there's an UNCLE story in my head that wants to be written. When? Yrrch.

[baronjanus]

To the tune of "chug!chug!chug!" or "toga! toga!", let me say, "WRITE! WRITE! WRITE!"

Re: reading of undetermined quality

[fajrdrako]

Pretend I'm taking notes?

Tell us about it, Janet.
