Silver held up Faye so that everyone could see her well. Then they turned her around so that it was mostly her back and tail that were visible rather than her soft underbelly. "Jackaroo have little plates amongst their fur to keep them safe," they explained.
Then they demonstrated by gently folding her so it looked like she was all curled up to display the plates as they would be used in the wild - to protect her face and belly. She tried to bury her face in their hands, further adding to the display. They would give her many treats after this for being so kind and patient with them. They definitely didn't want to be whipped by that iconic tail.
They tapped on one of the plates with their knuckles so that it made a faint sound. It was quite subtle, but anyone hearing it surely would have understood how tough the plates were in comparison to normal scales.

"That's not all," they said. Faye uncurled and looked up at them. What was next? She actually didn't know, as they hadn't trained this part. It had to be a surprise for it to work.
"Faye is also a creature that is incredibly tough of mind," they said. They sat her on the ground, then pulled a strange little sack out of their bag. It had odd eyes sewn badly on the front and it reeked of magic. Something was about to happen, but Faye was none the wiser. She hopped forward to sniff the bag, wondering what was inside.
Silver flinched slightly as they reached out to flick the bag open. They knew what was going to happen next, but they still didn't feel ready. Suddenly a shadowy spirit sprung from the bag, shrieking loudly before disappearing just as quickly.
Faye blinked a couple of times as if she didn't believe what she had just seen, but she didn't seem phased by it at all. Meanwhile, Silver's heart was racing but they knew they had to conclude the show.
"See? She's not afraid of anything!" they said through panting breaths.
