"'Kay! Have fun!" Cinnamon looked over to where Scorpio had disappeared. "This is an interesting place…"
Speak My Children! (Character Chat)
"I wonder if it hurts to shed…" Phoenix accidentally pondered aloud as he spotted a few crumpled molts along the floor of the other room. His eyes widened as he realized he indeed said that out loud, and slowly turned to Cinn with a cheeky smile.

Scorpio came back out of the room carrying a piece of a molted skin.
“I have no idea. We hibernate when we molt. It takes about four seasons.”

"Jeez. I wouldn't be able to miss that much," Cinn thought aloud. She grinned to no one in particular. "Can I look at look at one?"
group
Scorpio shrugged his wings.
“I don’t care.”
"Ah. Well that's certainly interesting still, uh… Scorpio, was it?" Phoenix tilted his head, looking the Scorpon over as innocently as he could. "I doubt anything poses a threat to you. That's what allows you to shed for four seasons with no fear or repercussions, right?"

Cinn walked over to the room to look at the skins. "Wow! These are so cool!" She continued to look at them in awe before running back like an excited child.
group
Scorpio dropped the skin on the ground.
“Actually, it’s mostly because I have a cave to hide in, and it is strictly forbidden to attack another Scorpon while they molt.”
"Huh. Fair rule to have. That'd be a horrible way to go, I imagine," Phoenix rose to his feet as curiosity finally got the better of him. He wanted to look at a molt close up. After all, it's not every day he gets to do this.
group
If he gets close enough, he will see that the molts depict a life. One molt looks like a young, young Scorpon. It is extremely tiny, and has no limbs. It is kinda cute. Another shows a slightly bigger Scorpon, still young but with six limbs this time and a long tail. The molts continually get bigger, and one looks especially ripped on the sides, as if huge wings popped out of them.

"Scorpio, your molts are amazing!" Cinn yawned. "Can I sleep here? I'm beat."
group
Scorpio smiles proudly, though he quickly covers it up.
“Most of those molts are Scrip’s. A lot of mine are in my parents cave, except for the adult molts. And sure, I guess you can sleep here. It’s more comfortable than sleeping on the wet ground outside.”
"Awesome indeed…" Phoenix breathed out and trailed off, beholding molts of manh sizes. He ran his hands across the skins, awestruck by the texture, and glanced up at Scorpio. Slowly, he approached the large Scorpon, holding his hand out to try to feel Scorpio's current skin for comparison.
group
Scorpio narrows his eyes at Phoenix, but doesn’t protest. His skin feels rough, and you realize that it is covered in a tough shell. His belly is white and muscular, and his back is blue and covered in sharp spikes.
"Woah… you're fuckin' awesome, Scorpio!" Phoenix burst out, running his hand across the Scorpon's skin one last time before pulling away. "I don't suppose you'll also have me as a guest tonight?"
group
Scorpio smiled.
“I will allow you to stay here for the night.”

“You can sleep among the molts. They are surprisingly comfortable.”

"Okay, thank you." She looked at them. "WIll someone wake me when the sun comes up, please?"
group
“Sure. You will hear Scrip in the morning anyway. He has to get up at sunrise.” At that moment, as if on cue, Scrip came running back into the cave on all tens, a strangely colored animal clutched in his strong tail. He had a small bag made of animal skin strapped to a leg.
“Here’s dinner,” He said. He took a hot stone out of the small pouch and placed the animal on the ground.

"I'm sorry I can't enjoy this meal with you, but I am exhausted. Good night to everyone!" Cinn waved to them, then walked towards the molts. They are surprisingly comfortable…

Scorpio and Scrip ate rather noisily, before falling asleep for the night in the back cave.

Cinn woke up before the rest of them, and went out in search of eggs and small birds to hunt.
