Tinder shrinks back as Nivalia swipes the bottle from her, fear
flashing in her eyes. She takes the pills that are offered to
her with a shaking hoof, nervous that they will be taken away
again, she needs this. Quickly she downs the pills, trying to
take deep breaths to keep herself calm, putting the bottle back
in her bag. "But, I like my life... I know how to do this job,
I'm good at it. I'm not good enough for others. You stick to
what you know, and I know this. You don't need to waste your
time on this, on studying them.. you shouldn't waste resources
on me. I'll just end up slipping back, I always do."

A feeling of guilt hits Nivalia when she realizes that she
scared Tinder. It just wasn't fair. She deserves so much better
than this. "Tinder..." her tone softens as she lowers herself to
eye level with the unicorn. "You've been one of my best
employees I've had. You're also one of my closest friends.
You... you're worth it. Time, resources, anything and
everything. You deserve so much more and better. You may have
always slipped back, but you didn't have me though." Getting up,
she trots over to the door. "First thing's first though, we need
to sort out these threats. Ready? Because I really don't know
where to go."

Tinder scratches at her bandages nervously, taking deep breaths
to try to calm herself down, trying to convince herself that
what Niv is saying is true. "Ebony said the same thing when he
saw my file... He said he'd help. But, I don't know if I'd make
it through. Rehab would have to be involved, and I barely stayed
going when I was in one last." She glances up at Nivalia as she
talks about sorting out the threats, and as much as she wants to
run for the hills she knows she has to do this. Slowly Tinder
stands up, straightening out her bag and taking a breath. "I can
bring you to my dealer.. I don't know any high-ups, they aren't
who I real with."

Nivalia nods, "It's a start. And if we can cut ties at this
level it'll be easier to move on." She knew Tinder was nervous,
and was proud to see her continue anyway. "I'll be with you the
whole time, sweetie."

Tinder checks her bag once more, making sure she has enough
pills to last her till she gets back. The thought of cutting
ties with her dealer is starting to get to her, reminding her of
the pain and sickness she'll have to go through if she quits.
She looks to Niv and nods a few times, "Okay.. I'll try." She
stops at her door and stares out, taking a deep breath before
making her way out. She seems to be walking towards the east
side of town, her steps slow and shaky, she doesn't want to do
this.

Nivalia keeps in step with Tinder as she follows her through
town. She wasn't sure what to expect. The only thing close to
danger that she's experienced was the assassin sent atter her
several months ago. A dealer couldn't be that bad, right?
Although, despite the risk, if it meant her friend being free
from those drugs; it is well worth the risk. Then there were the
drugs themselves. If Tinder tries to go cold turkey, the effects
could be severe. Nivalia already was working on similar
medication. She may not have something to cure whatever ailed
the orange unicorn, but she could certainly make better than
what she was taking.

Tinder looks over at Niv as she starts to slow down, she knows
that his spot is close. Her eyes full of fear, all she can think
of is the pain, of having what she relies on taken away from
her, of the time in rehab that is to come.. She's barely even
moving anymore, just inching forward, she knows this isn't going
to go well. But she can't stop now, she needs to keep going.
Tinder takes a deep breath and adjusts her bag, not ready for
this but having no choice. She looks around a few times before
heading down a nearby alley, she can't do this. But it's too
late now.. he's already seen her.
Near the middle of the alley, leaning against the wall, is a
dark gray earth pony. He blends in well with the surrounding
area, other then his piercing blue eyes, eyes that look like
they could see into the soul. A light smirk appears on his face
as he sees the two approach, "Back for another batch already?
And I see you brought a friend, you know that one extra person
won't make up for your debt.."
As soon as he spoke Tinder almost seemed to shrink, she can't do
this, she can't break ties with this. Her voice shakey as she
attempts to speak, "No, I... I just need my regular. Nothing
else."
As Tinder speaks he walks over to her, backing her against the
wall. His face inches away from hers as he puts one of his
forehooves against the wall beside her, blocking her way out.
"You know I don't like it when you bring others around... And
you know that you need to give me something before I give you
something. You saw what happened last time you gave me nothing."
His hoof lightly hitting her side, watching her wince from the
pain. "Of course, if you're still outta money, you know I accept
other forms of payment." His eyes traveling down her body as he
speaks.

It takes every fiber of patience for Nivalia to not kill this
stallion right then and there. Everything about him oozed
unsavory things. Tinder would find herself glowing with magic
before teleporting right next to her friend. "So this is the guy
huh? How... charming." Her last word is coated with venom.
"Lucky for you buddy, I'm actually interested in a dose myself.
I'm covering Tinder's expense this time. Throw in a hooful and
I'll pay double the amount." This wasn't an issue that could be
solved with a few words. She needed a sampling of the drugs
herself, and a straight forward approach is the only way she
knows how.

Tinder seems frozen in fear as he approaches her, she knows this
drill by now, it's not the first time. As she's teleported to
Niv she seems to straighten up a bit, a little bit of fear
leaving her eyes. A deep breath leaves her as she moves closer
to Nivalia, wanting to support her. "Thank you.."
As his prey disappears from in front of him he turns to face the
two, not afraid to get what he wants. He steps closer, each
movement purposeful, each look telling. "You're going to pay for
her?" He doesn't seem to be heading for Niv, he knows she's not
afraid of him, but Tinder is. He knows he can get whatever he
wants from Tinder, "Are you really going to let your friend here
waste her money on you?" He reaches up to stroke her face
slightly, smirking as she reels back from the touch, "Wouldn't
you rather pay for your own? You know how to.." He grins as he
glances over to Niv and then back to Tinder, "What do you say?
Or, I suppose you could let her pay, I can always come visit
your house when you need another dose."

At this point, Nivalia was getting excessively annoyed. Not only
intimidating get friend, but just ignoring her overall. This had
to stop. She needs to get his attention, and as long as Tinder
is here, she won't get it. Nivalia knew she could just...
persuade him to provide whatever they needed. It's so easy. No.
Not yet. The changeling wasn't about to use her ability unless
necessary. Regardless, she couldn't let this continue further.
"That won't be necessary," Nivalia cuts in. "I'm interested in
these things myself. Unless, you don't want another client to do
business. And like you said..." Her hoof gently brushes against
his shoulder as her tone becomes much softer, "You do take other
forms of payment, no?"
