The Stand - A Little Drabble Do Ya

“How’s the shoulder?”

Napoleon had managed to get himself and his partner to a safe place after an explosive turn of events at the THRUSH satrapy.

“Fine. It may slow me down a little…”

“Well… it’s not Christmas yet.  You still have time to get better.”

Illya turned on the blue gaze that disarmed and repelled almost simultaneously.

“That is not a consideration for me, Napoleon.  Please, do not think…”

“What I think is that regardless of the process you’ve undertaken to try to understand Christmas and possibly dismantle it entirely, you will not spend it alone, tovarisch.”

Illya smiled.

Spoken like a true friend.

Napoleon, ever the optimist, never gives up does he? One day he might just win his Russian friend over. Nice one.

Well noticed, Napoleon, you’ve undertaken to try to understand Christmas and possibly dismantle it entirely,; and well acted upon.

I love the way you describe Illya's simultaneous befuddlement and aversion, and Napoleon's complete understanding of the conflict.
