Tinder looks back at her side as Niv comments on the blood, how
hadn't she notices it before now? She should have been more
careful.. Her ears on a swivel as she glances at the door,
wondering if she can bolt without Niv catching her. She knows
she wouldn't make it, not in the state she's in. As the reality
of the situation hits her she shrinks back, not able to make eye
contact with Niv anymore. "I can dress it myself, I must have
hitched myself on something." How many excuses can she make, how
many times can she lie before she gets fired.

Nivalia sighs, and levitates a towel from one of the shelves. It
hovers over to Tinder as she gets up and trots around her desk.
"Tinder, per company policy, all injuries must be tended to
immediately. Preferably under the care of a medical
professional." She approaches Tinder and takes a seat. "Besides,
as your friend I'd can't just ignore this."

Tinder takes the towel and gently puts it on the floor where the
blood is dropping, not wanting to make more of a mess. Tinder
looks at Niv and then down at the floor, she said friend, not
just employer, can she really keep lying to someone who is a
friend? She takes a second to think through all her options,
finally realising that she needs to say something, even if it
isn't the whole truth. "If I go to a doctor, they aren't going
to release me again." Slowly she pulls the bag off her back,
keeping it close. Burns old and new covering both sides, the
laceration running down her right. She hasn't done anything with
it since she woke, being in too much of a rush to even clean it.

Nivalia tries to keep her composure, but the slight watering of
her eyes at what she discovers tells volumes. Instantly, more
boxes of medical equipment emerge from nearby counters. "Oh
Tinder! My goodness, I-" She pauses, taking a deep breath and
rounding the corner over to her. Her equipment follows in a
green glow. "Tinder, first things first." The changeling removes
her disguise and sits down in front of her closest companions.
"Tinder, I understand. You've kept my secret since we've met.
I'll certainly keep yours too. Regardless..." Nivalia levitates
sanitation wipes over to the orange mare, "Here, you can clean
your bag while I tend to your wounds." She levitates over a
spray and rags. A light spritz is sprayed on Tinder's
laceration. Three actually; she wanted to be sure. The result
was a cooling sensation as the affected tissue is numbed, and
the blood begins to clot. She leaves the medicine to sink in;
opening another box and taking out a much wider wrap. One side
has a blue sheen to it. "This will be for the sides. I don't
know how much they'll work, but it will negate the soreness you
may have on your sides. But that's after." A couple of towels
float onto Tinder's injury, resting there for a moment. "My
apologies for the hasty operation."

Tinder can't even seem to look at Niv as she speaks, her heart
racing, how long has it been since anyone has seen these other
then her? Why did she have to notice, she didn't want anyone to
know, anyone to worry. She grabs the wipes and starts cleaning
off her bag, anything to keep her herself occupied. "You don't
need to go through this much work.. I'm fine, really." This is
how she has to do it, she can't admit she's not okay, she can't
let those thoughts into her mind. If she starts letting reality
set in she won't be able to handle it anymore. "You don't need
to waste supplies on me, really. It would have healed on its
own." Can she really keep going like this? She knows she has to.
Her body shaking ever so slightly, the fear she's trying to
suppress starting to show.

Nivalia places her hoof on the pile of towels, the tissue
underneath completely numbed and cleaned. She wipes the towels
off and immediately spray the wound again. A sizable bandage
patch floats over and is placed right on Tinder's laceration.
"Almost done, Tinder. Now then..." The wrap with blue sheen
gently covers the unicorn's sides. It emits a chilling
sensation. "Done!" The supplies are stored away into the
cabinets as she gets back up. The changeling gives her companion
a hug; a soothing warmth from her magic radiates out. "I'm just
glad to see your safe here."

Tinder gives up on cleaning her bag, unable to get the blood off
of it. Her whole body shivering in fear, why would Nivalia let
her keep her job after seeing this? She doesn't want to look at
her, not wanting to know how she feels about this. She tenses up
as she's hugged, not expecting everything to be okay, expecting
her to be mad. After a second she reaches out and hugs Niv back
tight, she's scared, her body shaking, her cheeks stained with
tears. She attempts to speak but nothing that makes sense comes
out..

Nivalia kept her embrace with Tinder. Her heart breaks seeing
her like this. A few tears form in her eyes when she feels the
poor mare trembling. "It's gonna be ok, Tinder. Just let
whatever you're feeling out. I'm here for you, and I always will
be." Nivalia doesn't know whether her words will have any
effect. Still, she needed to say it. Her wings reach around and
envelop the scared unicorn.

It takes her a while to calm down enough to speak, her mind
racing through the events of the previous night. As time goes on
she finally let's go of Niv and wipes her eyes, still struggling
to make any eye contact, "This... I can't go to a doctor. They'd
never let me leave." Really, this is the least of her concerns,
but this is all she can voice. She knows that last night wasn't
just a mugging, she knows every minute she spends here could put
Niv in danger. How deep in is she now, how much does she owe
them? She can't even remember anymore, but she can't stop.

"I understand, Tinder." Nivalia packs away her things. "Is there
anywhere you need to go? Anything you need to get? If you need
to stay at my place, we could do that too." She gets up and
levitates all the boxes back into their shelving.
