Name that fruit

[sorcyress]

The dreamscape was extremely thorough and complex and involved aspects of planning a jailbreak and helping mom get ready to play Santa Claus (?) at WorldCon (?) and other interesting things, but I also ate a very good fruit.

In dream it had a name but that vanished immediately. The outside was visually similar to an eggplant --a little slimmer and smaller, but that same rich purple colour and slightly waxy skin texture. The inside reminded me very much of a rambutan --juicy and very wet and just barely holding onto solidity-- but it was also dark in colour, almost black (made translucent from the water content).

I cut it in half to eat, which meant I could peel the outside away with my nails. This got quite a lot of juice onto my hands, but made the rest available. I think I ate about two thirds and shared the last third with mom --I didn't really want to, it tasted amazing, but it was technically a gift to her from a friend that lived in...the tropics? Non-specific, in that way dreams are.

It was a neat fruit. I'm glad I got to try it, and if you never see me again because I've been taken by the goblins, you now know what's up.

My sibling recently tried quenepas, which isn't your mystery fruit, but called it to mind because they also couldn't remember the name.
