Tinder shakes her head a bit as she pops open the bottle, grabbing a couple from it and downing them. She holds the bottle out to him and she takes a couple deep breaths, "Could you put it back in the bag? Magic and pain don't mix all that well for me, gotta give it a minute. Any chance we could wait here for a second?"

The pills and the name scrawled on the label on the bottle can be recognized as a very high strength pain killer, and by the looks of that bottle they were not obtained legally. She talked about how she was in debt but never did say why, and these pills seem like a pretty good reason for that.

Foxtrot takes the pills and places them back in her bag. "Yea, we can wait here for a bit. Whenever you're ready to go just say so." The unicorn scans around for any guards once again. Seeing the coast is still clear he sits next to Tinder, "That's some high grade painkillers you have there. It must be bad if you need that strong of a dosage. I take it there not easy to come by either."

She continues to stares at the ground as she waits for them to cut in even a little, when he starts talking about the painkillers she glances over at him for a second before looking back. "You didn't think I was just slowing down earlier because I was tired did you? Yeah it hurts, if it didn't I wouldn't be spending every penny I have on it and then some that I don't have. And you spend some time in jail and you get to know where to find a lot of things you wouldn't before."

Foxtrot nods as he listens to Tinder, "I see how that can be problematic." Looking up he gets an idea, "Hey, when I meet my contact, I can ask them to look into something to help you out. I don't know how exactly but I'm sure we could do something." Staring at the sky he sees the full moon and stars.

Tinder looks over at him, a slight smile crossing her face at his kindness, "As much as I would love to find a way out of this problem, I can't go having you and your contact helping me. That's much too much trouble to make you go through, I mean you hardly know me and I don't even know this contact of yours, I can't expect them to do things for me."

"Tinder trust me." Foxtrot explains, "Your help in Ponyville was much more than you'd think. Besides if my contact found out about you, they'd want to help too." The unicorn looks over to the pathway laying adjacent to them. "It shouldn't matter how much I know you; besides, isn't that what we're doing now? Getting to know each other more?"

"I didn't even do that much, all I did was let you stay at my place for the night. And I'm not sure your contact will really want to help me since I haven't done anything at all for them, especially if helping me takes a lot of work." She looks back at the ground for a second before slowly moving to stand again, "We are certainly getting to know each other now though. We should be going to see this thing you wanted to show me though, before some guards come and find us here."

"Yea, we should get going. The guards sometimes change their patrol times." Foxtrot says as he gets up. "As for my contact, we'll cross that bridge when we get there." Looking around he waves Tinder over to follow him. With a sense of caution, he leads her to the Royal Gardens; more specifically to a bed of flowers that haven't opened up yet. "Here it is, they should be opening up any minute now."

Tinder follows close behind, excited to see what it is he was going to show her. She seems to be back to normal again now, her walking speeding back up and no longer does pain cross her face. When they reach the flowers she looks at them and tilts her head a bit, "opening now? But it's night, I thought flowers opened in the day."

"Technically yes." Foxtrot replies as he sits down to get comfortable. "But these are a bit different. Watch and be amazed!" A good minute passes before anything happens, "Alright it may take some time; I don't know exactly when they bloom but it should be soon. Take a seat, get comfy. How's your head feeling?"

Tinder continues to stares at the flowers as she sits next to Foxtrot. Not taking her eyes off them since she doesn't want to miss this. She take's a second to think again before answering him, deciding that at this point she might as well be truthful about this part of her life at least. "Head is fine, always was. My side is what hurts right now, but it's fairly good at the moment, the pain is back down to the barely noticeable lull I'm used to. I can't expect to be completely pain free when I got my saddle bag rubbing up against it all the time to hide it."

"Your side?" Foxtrot asks, rather confused. "What happened to your side?"

Tinder looks over at him for half a second before looking back at the flowers, "Nothing you need to worry about right now. Magic goes haywire while I sleep, end up with burns when I wake, no big deal really. Just pain is all."

"That's rough." Foxtrot replies. "I hope it's not something perma- oh!" He taps her shoulder with excitement, "Here we go, it's starting!" The blue and violet flowers in front of them begin to glow, their green petals changing to a white color. As soon as they open up, a flurry of golden pollen sprouts into the air, creating the illusion of a starry night right in front of them. The particles hover around the garden as the flowers remain glowing at the bottom of the flower bed. "These guys always do this at night. I wish I knew what they were called."

Tinder stares at the flowers in amazement as they open. All thoughts of the past little bit drifting from her head as she focuses on these beautiful plants, this large smile plastered across her face. "This is absolutely amazing, I didn't know flowers could even do this. I wish I had some of these at my place, because these are awesome." She looks over at Foxtrot after a bit, "So, you spend a lot of nights here? Or did you just know that these do this?"
