Summary
Illya sits on the floor of his mostly-unfurnished living room. It’s dark out, somewhere in that time of night when most people are asleep or enjoying themselves immensely, and Illya finds himself doing neither. He holds the cardboard album cover in his hands, the lithographic trumpet staring up at him, and contemplates the unexpected direction of his life. He has records. He has magazines. He has five suits.
“Have you ever thought of sprucing this place up a little?”
He also has Leona. Unlike his smattering of possessions, she is non-returnable.
(Or: Napoleon Solo has always been a woman, just like Illya has always been a Soviet. No one forgets either fact easily.)

Summary
His name was Fyodor. He wasn’t a particularly beautiful man, not by any of the standards Illya has come to use. Dark hair cut a little too short, eyes a little too shadowed. But he spoke Russian with a Muscovite accent, and he smelled like rain.
(Or, Illya has a run in with romance, and Solo picks up the pieces.)
