some good advice for when you feel embarrassed about feeling a certain emotion:
So, around 2 years ago, I did an MFU-themed run of Oregon Trail.
I decided to do another one, with this premise: Napoleon and Illya go back in time and meet Lionheart and Kid, and they travel the Trail together.
Highlights and commentary by @ksturf and myself under the cut–
It was a month before something happened. Thankfully, Napoleon will look after him with some TLC…
….Aaaaand gets it from him.
Illya: I told you to sleep somewhere else… Napoleon: …Worth it.
Napoleon chooses this inopportune moment to extol the virtues of vaccines and modern medicine. Lionheart doesn’t appreciate it.
Napoleon: So, with just a quick inoculation, you can avoid this– Lionheart: SHADDUP *goes for a punch, misses, punches the wagon’s support beam instead, and–*
Napoleon: …Did you think I didn’t know my own fighting style? I mean, you’re basically me… Lionheart: I said shaddup!
This happened so many times. Two seasoned travelers plus two Survival School graduates apparently are not enough.
Lionheart: So where are those vaccines you were talking about? Illya: This was from the bad water, Blockhead! *goes for a punch, misses, also hits the wagon support beam–*
Napoleon: …New rule, no more fighting.
Illya: Napoleon, did you forget to get your booster shot!? Napoleon: …I… might have… Lionheart: So you forgot your newfangled vaccine? Illya: This BLOCKHEAD did, da. Kid: *quiet snark*
Illya: NAPOLEON, I SWEAR I AM DRAGGING YOU TO MEDICAL TO GET YOUR BOOSTERS AS SOON AS WE GET BACK TO OUR TIME. Kid: *more, louder snarking* Napoleon: *annoyed breathing in Kid’s general direction*–
Kid: YOU GATDANGED CITY SLICKER…!
*much TLC and a new truce ensues*
…And they finally made it all in one piece! …Just barely!
It’s officially 2 years since I’ve fallen in love with Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin~…I love them more every day! To celebrate, here is the scene that invented hurt and comfort ❤ (and one of my favourite napollya scenes of all time!)
Some more love for our brave hero, always thinking of the greater good (and his partner). He does what he has to for the success of the mission. It isn’t always pretty, but with Illya by his side, he always pulls through.
