Still poking around in the first half, this is later in the scene where Napoleon is trying to get to the bottom of what's wrong with his partner. If you know the show, you might recognize what canon event precipitated this whole thing. Or not ;)


(Napoleon) poured a splash of scotch and drank it quickly, then poured more into the glass. He brought it to Illya, hesitated a moment, then hitched up his pant leg and sat on the arm of the couch.

He watched as his his partner held the tumbler in both hands, swirled the liquid around once, then raised the glass and emptied it. He continued to hold it loosely clasped in his hands, looking down into it, making no attempt to break the silence. Napoleon took a deep breath. "No. It wasn't you, Illya. It wasn't you. He bragged to me that he had betrayed you. Mandor was using us."

"He was using Uncle. Uncle was using him." Illya was matter of fact.

"He was using me." Napoleon's voice was bitter as he thought again of Mandor's words. He felt Illya's eyes on him, his dawning comprehension.

They're in Mr Waverly's office in the corner with the two small couches and Mr Waverly interrupts them a moment or two later?

I can see why you'd think so, but no :) I'm going to be awful and not say what it is then, because now that I see there's no need to worry about being spoilery, I'll leave it at that.

Another awkward moment for the pair of them.

Not nearly as awkward as what's to come :D

I don't know the fandom, but this has a wondferul tense feel to it.

Thanks :) They're starting to poke into areas they usually try not to poke into.
