i do think napoleon and illya should have hugged in the reunion movie though. or barring that and maybe more realistically i think they should have both stood there clearly waiting for the other one to hug them but not being able to bring themself to be the one who initiates it until napoleon reaches both hands out of his pockets, hesitating-- almost like he might, one arm coming up toward illya's side-- and then at the obvious last split second he changes his mind, and puts his hand on illya's shoulder, firm and lingering. and then illya slowly smiles and puts his hand over napoleon's for a minute, and they both kind of look at each other like that, and it's not exactly unguarded, but it's earnest, and it's not exactly sad, but there's something almost regretful to it. and then they both put their hands down and get back to walking and talking about the bomb i guess. the rituals needed to get a least a little bit more intricate if nothing else, is what im saying,

i'll say this though the 15 years later affair (and to a lesser extent the say UNCLE affair) did make me realize that i fucking loooove thinking about napoleon and illya Old. to be clear i dont think early 50s is That old but it shows such a promising start. if thats the way theyre acting right at the start of middle age it can only get better from here. also yes to say nothing of the fact that im a huge sap and i love when a) two characters Find each other again later in life and b) have History (for better and worse) together. i love when two guys sit around and reminisce about the good old days AND old wounds AND fret over how much time they feel theyve wasted AND get excited when they realize they have more time together than they thought they were ever going to get. im only human

how are there not a million post-the THRUSH roulette affair fics or comics or whatever about illya mulling over how he almost fucking killed napoleon. like theres a minute where he sees what he thinks is napoleon's dead body and he just goes to shamble off like its nothing. how much of all that does he even remember if any. like thats crazy.

really funny seeing illya do the spock thing before spock did it like being so life alteringly popular so quickly that they have to make more and more episodes about this character and that like even his first big episode of focus was getting dosed with some fear gas that made him sad and whimpering in the corner so very naked time of him and then jill ireland looked at him and was like please.... be more human more loving for me which then brushed into levels of the surreal for someone watching this from a star trek lens and seeing only leila kulomi when she talks but the undeniable power of sad pitiful men and slash fiction really changing the entire trajectory of television shows undeniable
