"Terms of endearment" for A Little Drabble Do Ya!

“Come on Illya you can do this buddy boy,” Napoleon whispered.

“Will you please stop calling me those ridiculous names?” Illya grunted.

“What ridiculous names?”

“Oh...buddy boy, pal, then there is Stinky and you do tend to overuse tovarisch.”

“Tovarisch isn’t a nickname. The others are merely terms of endearment.”

“I hardly think those are apropos when I am struggling to squeeze between our cell bars.”

“Okay how about... Mister Skinny?”

Exasperated; Illya let out a very deep sigh and suddenly he was through.

“See, it helped didn’t it...tovarisch?” Solo grinned.

“No, now it is your turn...Nappy.”

lol! Napoleon's strategy wins the main goal, though.

Napoleon knows exactly what he's doing, LOL. The name 'Nappy' really makes me cringe. I think it's because that is our word for diapers.

Thank you! Nappy makes me cringe too as it always makes me think of that 'diaper' meaning.

Then again, Illya using it and having worked in England first for his country and then UNCLE knows what nappy means too, so perhaps there's a method to his madness as well. "D
