... Chances are you aren't doing any Father's Day activities, or have taken a break; perhaps you haven't even started the day yet. I know for me it's always a little melancholic to encounter Mother's Day and Father's Day; both of my parents are gone, so the day seems a bit empty.
I'll be heading to a family thing after church, since there are a few fathers in the crowd and my cousin wants to honor them. She and her sister lost their father last year, so I imagine they'll be a bit weepy when no one is looking.
... But since we're here, the topic is going to turn to UNCLE, which is not exactly the same as talking about one's father, but men are definitely our focus.
Napoleon and Illya... are they father material? I know there are stories out there that attest to their excellent skills as a parent, the AU version of our guys. Do you think that's possible, to be both super spy and super dad?
I don't know. I think it might be a stretch, but then again, people have hidden capabilities that manifest when the situation demands it. What sort of fathers do you think they might be?
If you have time and are interested in the topic, feel free to comment, or perhaps recommend a story that features one or both of them as a new or experienced father.
I suppose we could title this topic The Dads from UNCLE.
