Read em' and Weep~ A little Drabble Do Ya






They sat together using a wooden crate as their table;  a single white candle balanced in a glass illuminated the scene.

“We’re nearly out of supplies.

“Stop complaining and deal.”

Napoleon put down his cards, looking to his pile of peanuts. “Well?”

“Your bet.”

“Everything in.”

Illya shoved his stash into the pot.

“Not enough.”

Patting his pockets, he found a bag of airline peanuts.

“Read em’ and weep,” Napoleon grinned. “Eighteen.

Twenty-one...Blackjack. I believe I win.” Illya happily gathered his prize.

“What about me? That’s all the food we have.”

Illya tossed him the cellophane bag.

“Gee thanks.”

Nice scene.

I wouldn't be surprised if those big Napoleon eyes didn't get a few peanuts, even out of Illya.

Knowing the ingenuity of both, I'm sure that cellophane bag will be very useful later in this affair.

Hmmm didn't think of that with the cellophane? Good idea! Glad you liked it and thanks for the comment.

hehe Cute drabble. :)
I'm sure Napoleon will manage to convince Illya to share some of his peanuts somehow. ;)
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks! I was inspired to write this while watching Bill Murray in the movie "Meatballs."

Hm, never seen that movie. I've seen Bill Murray in a few movies, though.

It's pretty funny...it's the first starring role that he had in a movie and is about a bunch of reject camp counsellors and loser campers that end up being 'winners' at Camp North Star.
Cute movie, not hysterical but has some very good chuckles in it, and has a redeeming underlying theme.

.. Snort!... Oh, I highly doubt that Illya will give up his peanuts without some very serious deal making. Napoleon probably needed that lesson.

Oh so true. Thanks for reading and commenting!

So generous isn't he.

[identity profile] mrua7.livejournal.com 2012-06-27 09:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh I'm sure there'll be 'deal making' as Glennagirl pointed out. Thanks!

I'm amazed Illya gambled with food. Cute drabble.

[identity profile] mrua7.livejournal.com 2012-06-27 10:18 pm (UTC)(link)
There was little choice since everything had run out. Perhaps he cheated? So maybe he wasn't really gambling. He is tricky after all. hehehhee

Thanks for reading and commenting!!

[identity profile] avery11.livejournal.com 2012-06-27 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Illya will share, I'm sure. After all, it's only peanuts, right?

[identity profile] mrua7.livejournal.com 2012-06-27 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh he will, but I think he's going to make Napoleon work for it...hehehee
