MFU Fic: Five Times Napoleon Solo Got Lucky

Jun 23, 2009 22:58

My cliche bingo card happened to include the cliche I was already writing (they're cliches for a reason, people!), so here we go: my first fic in MFU, my first fic in about two years, and my first slash in...er...a long time. Betaed by the eternally patient and lightning quick ezazahazFive Times Napoleon Solo Got Lucky ( Read more... )

Hey, welcome to the fandom. And you come bearing fic! Wheeee.

Thank you very much for recommending my video padfootsfox, I'm honoured! :-)

I especially like number 4, I wonder if Napoleon's night did end up getting better *g*

O HAI I LOVE YOUR VIDS XDDD I don't have a fannih YouTube account for comments, but I heart your vids (esp. the Russian Angel Affair!)

And thank you! Glad you liked it. I don't think even Illya could resist Napoleon in full-blown Seduction Mode. :)

Thank you! Welcome yourself. :)

I did see that vid! I am ashamed to admit that when I first encountered MFU I did not fully appreciate the hotness of The McCallum, but that vid helped set me straight. :D

Oh sweet, cliche bingo! I just missed signing up for that.

Yay, five things! My favorite genre in the world! I love the way you tied all of these together with the last line.

Aw, too bad you missed it! I adore fannish cliches so I'm hoping the bingo game will make me write fic that I actually finish...

Thanks, glad you liked the fic! I love Five Things as well -- so much that I was already working on one before I got it on my bingo card. *g*

For a newcomer, you certainly deliver a punch. Welcome, cousin! I hope you'll have fun checking out the various sites. Consider this a personal invitation to join us over at mfu_canteen!

Hee, thanks! Glad you liked it!

And thanks for the invite to the canteen! I'm poking my nose in various MFU lj comms, it looks like a very nice, friendly fandom. :) See you around!

We like to keep things friendly - and leave the rest for THRUSH. Life's too short for such things when the wonderfulness of MFU is here to roll around in.

May I friend you?

epicycles June 25 2009, 03:10:08 UTC

It is such a lovely sandbox to play in, isn't it?

Friend away! My lj is pretty boring though...I shall friend in return!

:D YAY! Another good writer joins the clan!
These were very good - I LOVED the malfunctions piling up in Napoleon's favour, his legendary luck isn't always what it seems, yes? ;)

epicycles June 25 2009, 03:15:28 UTC

Hee, thanks! I'm so glad you liked it! Yeah, a lot of Napoleon's luck seems to involve Illya rescuing him in time. :)

Wow, first story? You're out the gates galloping!

I love your characterizations, and your refined, simple language. Everything flows so well, and your ideas are fresh and fun.

I really enjoyed these - thank you for sharing. Please, please write more MFU!

epicycles June 25 2009, 03:20:03 UTC

Wow, thank you! Aw, your comment made me feel warm and fuzzy. XD I'm so glad you liked the fic! And I'm particularly glad the characterizaiton worked; it's always so hard writing in a new fandom to get the voices right.

Thank you for your lovely comments!
