* CrypticConversation: The conversation with the snake. It starts out straightforward, but as it goes on, the snake starts speaking more cryptically, dressing up words in poetic metaphor. The prince describes it as speaking in riddles.
-->The little prince gazed at him for a long time.\\
"You are a funny animal," he said at last. "You are no thicker than a finger..."\\
"But I am more powerful than the finger of a king," said the snake.\\
The little prince smiled.\\
"You are not very powerful. You haven't even any feet. You cannot even travel..."\\
"[[DeadlyEuphemism I can carry you farther than any ship could take you]]," said the snake.\\
He twined himself around the little prince's ankle, like a golden bracelet.\\
"Whomever I touch, I send back to the earth from whence he came," the snake spoke again. "But you are innocent and true, and you come from a star..."\\
The little prince made no reply.\\
"You move me to pity--you are so weak on this Earth made of granite," the snake said. "I can help you, some day, if you grow too homesick for your own planet. I can--"\\
"Oh! I understand you very well," said the little prince. "But why do you always speak in riddles?"\\
"I solve them all," said the snake.\\
And they were both silent.

* AffablyEvil: The snake, for an interpretative value of "evil," is extremely polite to the Prince. This is also emphasized in the 1974 movie where he's played by a very soft-spoken, relaxed Bob Fosse who calls the Prince a "smart, sensible sort" in the sort of tone that suggests he means it; he happily encourages the Prince to just [[ScrewThisImOutOfHere leave the miserable planet he's found himself on]] before deciding he'll bite the Prince, and he convinces the Prince to submit to him via [[VillainSong elaborate musical number]]. A huge point of both book and movie is that the Prince lets the Snake bite him out of his own volition; this is a huge reason why.
