Slither In - A Little Drabble Do Ya

A Double Drabble...
..............................

"What is this?"
Illya was holding a vegetable, or a fruit… he wasn't sure.  Napoleon took it from him and turned it in his hand, unsure how to answer the Russian.
"Well…"
Illya blew out a snort of derision.
"As I suspected, you have no idea."
A young woman walked up beside Napoleon and took the scaly red item from his hand.
"This is Snake Fruit, or Salak.  It tastes a little like pineapple."

Napoleon smiled appreciatively at the pretty fruit expert.
"I don't actually like snakes, but I'd be willing to try this.  Perhaps we could order some with dinner, say… tonight."
Illya rolled his eyes at the speed of light response from his partner.  Only Napoleon could turn a conversation about something called Snake Fruit into a pick -up line.  The woman smiled back at the dark haired agent; a smile that triggered a memory for Illya.
She was different somehow, her hair was lighter, but it was the same woman who had led him into a back room in Spain; she had led him to Zark.
"Napoleon, in the interest of science we must consider the relationship between birds and reptiles."
Solo caught that, and the girl.
