Summary
Illya looks back out over the balcony, across the city to the sea. A few birds wheel overhead. Somewhere a bell starts ringing. “You don’t have to stay. There are worse places.”
“If you are going to die, then I’m not letting you die alone,” Napoleon replies. “Besides, I’m not giving up. Just trying another avenue.” He studies the magic sluggishly curling still around Illya’s body. “Why did you do this?”
“Do what?” Illya asks. His face is pale, even in the bright Mediterranean sun. He tilts his head back and shuts his eyes, turning his face into it.
“Burn the plans. When you knew this might happen.” Illya flinches slightly, and Napoleon hums. “When you knew this would happen. Is this worth dying for?”
Illya flinches again. “No one can have those plans. And I knew it would end like this eventually. This is a better place than I thought I would have.” He breathes steadily, hand clenching into fists as his body spasms. “It was worth it,” he says quietly.
Napoleon whistles. “Christ, Peril. Way to point out that compared to you, I have the moral backbone of a chocolate eclair.”

Summary
Illya is bleeding.
He can’t be too concerned about it, though, because it’s a flesh wound at most and Solo’s injury is much worse.

Summary
Napoleon Solo is in love with Illya Kuryakin. He knows it. Gaby knows it. Illya presumably does not know it, otherwise Napoleon would be dead. It's not just Illya's rejection Napoleon fears. The CIA and KGB would never brook their top agents canoodling with each other. And who the hell knows what Waverly will think.
No, it's better for all concerned that he keeps his mouth firmly shut.
Then a mission unexpectedly unravels, things spiral out of Napoleon's control, and all his best resolutions turn to dust.
