Winter: What do I think of Shrapnel's scales being hard as diamonds?

Winter: I'll admit, it's a pretty neat trick of his. But, it can't be invincible against anything.

Shrapnel: I dunno, my scales saved me countless times, they are pretty indestructible.

Winter: Oh! OK, I know how it's played, show-up.

Shrapnel: I'm not showing off, it's just a fact--

Winter: A fact, you say? Well, it's also a fact that your scales ain't tougher than you think.

Shrapnel: You want to see if you're right?

Winter: Oh, I know I'm right.

Later:

Shrapnel: Winter, this is crazy!

Winter: What? You wanted to prove that your scales are tough.

Shrapnel: But, you're about to chop my talon off with an axe!

Winter: If you're telling the truth, then nothing will happen. Now, hold still.

*Winter swung the axe down before Shrapnel could protest, but the blade didn't went through the scales, instead splitting in half on impact*

Winter: Damn.

Shrapnel: Now, you believe me?

*suddenly, someone walked in*

Peril: What are you two doing?

Winter: ....not yet.

Winter: Peril, you see this IceWing?

Peril: Yeah?

Winter: Touch him.

Shrapnel: Huh?

Peril: What!? I'm not gonna do that!

Winter: C'mon! I just want to see something.

Peril: Fine, but don't blame me for the dead IceWing in your room.

*Peril reluctantly reached out, and touched Shrapnel. There was a wait, and nothing happened*

Peril: ...

Peril: *😀*

Shrapnel: Uh, why is she looking at me like--

*Peril tackles Shrapnel in a hug*

Shrapnel: What the--

Winter: Huh. Well, I'll be damned, guess he was telling the truth.

Shrapnel: Can someone please get this strange SkyWing off me?

Peril: :3
