Avatar: Hey there, Freddy Bear! I've got some new cured meat for you to try...
Frederick: I'll thank you not to refer to me by that ridiculous name... And I'm not so gullible as to fall for your bear-jerky trick twice.
Avatar: Oh? I thought you were serious about getting over this, Frederick. Look, I'm not a monster. I prepared a whole series of meats in order of gaminess. We can take it slow.
Frederick: ...Well, I suppose I did ask for this.
Avatar: All right then. We'll start with chicken, then pork, then beef.
Frederick: *Munch, munch* ...Hmm, excellent so far.
Avatar: Next is mutton. It starts to get a little tricky here.
Frederick: *Munch, munch* ...This is...manageable.
Avatar: You're doing great! Okay, this one's venison.
Frederick: *Munch, munch*
Avatar: ...By which I mean bear.
Frederick: PFFFFFFFT! Augh! By the gods! I'm d-dying! Dying! Ah...It's s-so dark... T-tell Chrom that...
Avatar: Oh, stop exaggerating! Otherwise you might die here—you won't last long on the battle...field? Whoa. I just had intense déjà vu.
Frederick: I said the same to you, once upon a training session. And I was right. If I succumb to this, I can't well protect everyone on the front lines... My body is ready, Avatar! The next sample, if you please!
Avatar: You talked yourself back into it? Impressive. And perhaps a bit disturbing... Ah, well. Whatever works. Let's finish this, Frederick! Open wide!

Sully: There you are, Frederick! I thought you might be up for a little sparring.
Frederick: Certainly, Sully. ...All right, you may strike whenever you are ready.
Sully: Get ready for a whuppin'! Hiiiiiii-YA!
Frederick: Mmm... Good technique and excellent form. However, it is now my turn...
Sully: Gah!
Frederick: Are you all right?
Sully: Oh, yeah! Just peachy! Thanks! Er, I think I'm going to yield, though. ......
Frederick: Is something the matter?
Sully: Just wondering how you beat me so easily, is all.
Frederick: I would hardly call such a match "easy."
Sully: Yeah, but I never lose to anybody!
Frederick: Sometimes these things are a simple matter of chance.
Sully: Hmm... Well, thanks for the practice. I'll let you know once I've honed my edge a bit.
Frederick: I look forward to it.
