I have a question

... which I will crosspost for obvious reasons.

What - assuming Starsky and Hutch are working with them on a case and become at least semi-friendly - would Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin call them? Hutch works, but surely not "Starsky"? For those of you familiar with both worlds, what do you think?

It just seems more like Napoleon and Illya to call them by their first names once they decide that these two are OK.

Yeah, I really am enjoying the idea that S&H, cool cops, are going to be rather impressed by our slightly greying but still formidable spies (not that they'll admit it), while NS&IK will be pretty pleased with our rough-and-tumble cop duo.


Plus explosions, h/c and smut, of course. :)

...Napoleon and Illya ...call them by their first names once they decide that these two are OK.

But of course. I forgot to point out that I most definitely assume NS&IK will most definitely decide these two are OK! Hmmm... plot point there... do they do so immediately? Or after ____, and based on ____? Do S&H take to our smooth and always humorous older duo right away, or do they in turn take some convincing? I am an idiot to overlook the delights of a friendship that doesn't just happen right off the bat. (So not an author.)

At any rate, I can't wait to find out how you negotiate this "first time."

Well, they won't be friends right off, of course, but I can't think that four such smart and competent men, working together on a tough, dangerous case for a while, wouldn't develop a mutual respect. I'm afraid I like them all too much to make one of them, you know, dislike one of the others (it would seem too much like poor judgment!), although it is true that Starsky is feeling a trifle jealous of Napoleon's ... je ne sais quoi. :)
