"Oh..." Cosmos stood outside, mouth open with surprise as he stepped into the white flakes falling from the sky. He held one hand out to catch the flake, marveling at the composition and construction of the crystals. "Is this snow?"
Beachcomber looked over at him with a smile. "This is the stuff. Never seen it before?"
"No," the green bot took several image captures as the snowflakes melted away on his warm plating. "I could see the clouds sometimes from orbit, but I never got to see it from the ground before. It's very pretty."
"It sure is." Beachcomber watched as the snow built up on Cosmos's plating, taking a few image captures of his own.
After a while, when Cosmos was more white than green and the snow was still coming down, the blue mech stepped inside to retrieve their rations for the day. He heated them carefully and added sweetening agents, then carried them outside to his friend.
Cosmos took his warmed ration with a grateful smile, and the two minibots enjoyed the remainder of Cosmos' first snowstorm.
