Thyme watches Mana apply the dye remover, the red stains coming
out of his coat, though he apparently decides to leave his armor
as-is for now. She turns her attention back to Ryo when the
guard asks if there's anything she's interested in. She seems
quite nervous, for reasons Thyme couldn't figure out. Maybe she
just wasn't good at meeting new ponies? Whatever it was, Thyme
just nods as Ryo answers that she doesn't know what she wants.
While her two customer's time was apparently limited, Thyme
herself wasn't in any particular hurry. "Feel free to take your
time." She says to the younger mare, and glances over at Mana
again for a moment, in case he has anything else he wants.

"You... don't?" Mana asked back, finding the way she'd answered
him to be a bit odd, "Are you sure? We can pick something up if
you'd like. There's probably all kind's of things in here that
can do all who knows what and would make for an interesting
time. I've been studying alchemy a little bit myself these last
few months and let me tell you it can lead to some interesting
effects. Wouldn't you agree miss Thyme?" the guard asked the
owner of the shop after she'd urged them to take their time,
"What are some of the more interesting side effects or mishaps
that you've been hit with in the past because of your trade, if
you don't mind me asking? Also, any favorites around here that
you could recommend for ponies looking for something fun?"

Thyme nods to Mana's question. While she didn't really carry
much in the way of unusual effects, there were definitely some
quite interesting things you could achieve with potions. As for
mishaps and side effects... well, she'd had her fair share of
both, but what would be interesting enough to mention?... "Well,
once when I was experimenting with some magic dye, but it ended
up making anything it was used on smell so strongly of cinnamon
it burned your nose being close to it." Perhaps not the most
exciting thing ever, but she had gotten something useful out of
it... "Eventually I figured out how that happened, and with some
modification I was able to make it bearable. Now I sell a
variety of different scented dyes." Thyme thinks for a moment.
"There was one time I spilled something into a potion I was
working on that made me sneeze glitter for a week, and another
time a mishap made my mane grow ten feet long. As for
recommendations..." She looks around the shop, going through a
mental list of her inventory for things that sound interesting.
"I of course have many different kinds of dyes, like the scented
ones I mentioned. There's also ones that glow or change color in
certain conditions. I even have some that make patterns." She
looks around the shop again. Other things that could be fun...
Her mind goes to that suggestion for a potion to make somepony
look like an alicorn. Maybe she'd look into that, after she
finished with her experiments with the Dust for Chaser. "I carry
a few other things as well, potions to change your voice or
create harmless magical flames, among other things."

The mishaps sounded silly to Ryo. The closest thing she had ever
done to this kind of alchemy was probably the vegetable soup she
had prepared few times in the past. The glitter sneezes made Ryo
giggle a bit, a mental image of Thyme sneezing glitter making
it's way to her head.
While Ryo didn't really care about cinnamon, the glowing dye
grabbed her interest. Ryo began to scan the shop, trying to spot
the said dye to maybe see how much it costs, but she failed to
spot the glowing Dye. Not wanting to interrupt the conversation,
Ryo waited for Mana's reply to Thyme, before she asked from
Thyme "I-is the g-glowing Dye E-... Expensive...?" Ryo was still
spinning the question about cutie mark potion in her head, but
didn't ask it yet. She would need to somehow muster more courage
first.

Mana gave a small chuckle at the odd effects caused by Thyme's
potions in the past, the one involving sneezed puffs of confetti
sounding especially entertaining and or adorable to see with the
guard wondering if shed found a way to reproduce the effects
reliably or had merely had that occur as a single accidental
that hadn't been replicated. He entertained the idea of maybe
picking up a scented dye or two at some point - that's what
stallions did on dates right? Wear cologne and stuff? - but
ultimately the mention of harmless flames caught his attention
as he tried to guess f it would spout them from the mouth upon
being ingested or was meant to be poured over something to coat
them in flames instead. Maybe his uncle would be interested in
learning about that particular little concoction to spice up his
shows...
"Um.. and does this remover work with the glow in the dark stuff
as well?" Mana asked when Ryo showed interest as he wanted to
make sure his armor may not accidentally start glowing in the
dark any time soon and lose any tactical worth at night before a
brief moment was spent trying to understand why Ryo was
stuttering so much.

"The glowing dyes are twenty three bits for the regular version
and thirty five for the permanent version." Thyme answers, still
a bit curious about why Ryo is so nervous. She's tempted to ask
what the problem is, but she is trying to be professional and
the blue mare's reasons are probably none of her business. "And
it glows all the time, not just in the dark, so you don't need
to worry about that." She says, turning toward Mana. "But yes,
the dye remover works on all types."

Okay, Ryo wanted to buy a vial of that dye. It sounded way too
neat to pass on. Remembering her bit situation, Ryo began to
think that maybe she should also get a vial of that dye remover,
hearing that it works on the glowing dye too, just in case
something goes wrong with the dye. Then again that would burn a
good portion of the bits she had managed to save up. Decision
was quickly made however, and Ryo would buy the said items. But
what color...? Blue? That would make sense, kinda... But Thyme
didn't mention what color's she had in stock. Having failed to
spot the glowing dyes earlier, Ryo asked "W-what colors a-are
there... I-i mean... W-what colored gl-glowing dyes...? T-the
permanent ones... I-if there is di-different colors to ch-choose
from..."

"I have a variety of different colors, if you'd like me to show
you." Thyme asnwers, turning to roll out from behind the
counter. The mare figures it would just be easier to let Ryo see
her selection, as there were too many colors to name easily. She
wheels past Ryo and over to one of the aisles, pausing to make
sure the blue mare is following before continuing. "They're
right here." She says, stopping next to a shelf of bottles
containing faintly glowing liquids in a number of different
colors. "The glow is a little hard to notice in the day time."

Ryo gave Thyme a nod. Seeing the selection would most likely be
the best option. After Thyme left the counter and headed towards
the dye shelves, Ryo followed her, after giving Mana a nod to
tell him that she would be right back, as if that wasn't
obvious, them being in the same building that only housed one
store, but she felt like that was a polite thing to do. After
reaching the shelf containing the dyes, Ryo felt like a filly in
candy shop would, when they are only "allowed" to pick one type
of candy from the store. There was a lot of dyes there. And
lot's of colors to choose from. Ryo scanned the shelf, giving
Thyme a small nod when she mentioned that the glow was hard to
see in daylight.
"Uhm..." Ryo spotted the blue the she had thought about, but
also saw a red dye there. For some reason red dye was also
tempting. "I-i don't know... I-if i should take blue... Or red
dye... Uhh..." It was like Ryo was asking Thyme to help her
decide, but her continuous mumbling didn't give the shop owner
chance to do so. After few minutes of debating, Ryo finally
announced her choice "I-i take that light b-blue one... O-over
there..." Ryo pointed to the said dye, it's color being very
close to her coat color. "I-i would... A-also take a bottle of
that dye remover... J-just in case... P-please..." Ryo didn't
take the bottle from the shelf herself, unsure if she was
supposed to do that. She was ready to follow Thyme to the
counter, to pay for the items she had chosen.

Thyme glances from Ryo to the bottles of faintly glowing dye.
She's not really sure if she should be making the choice for the
other mare. She supposes she could tell Ryo her own preference
though... The green mare opens her mouth to speak, but Ryo has
apparently made her decision, pointing out a light blue shade
that very nearly matches her coat. Thyme nods, and when Ryo
seems reluctant to actually take the bottle, levitates it off
the shelf and over to the blue mare. "Here you go." She wheels
past Ryo and back toward the counter, levitating a bottle of the
dye remover to the other mare as well. "That's thirty-eight
bits." She says as after they reach the counter. "Is there
anything else?" She asks, looking between the two other ponies.
