Nyxara

*He nodded, eyeing the shop and taking mental measurements.* Yeah, I'll get on that. Eventually. Maybe tomorrow. Take a day off and do that.

Well, I guess I should get going now.

I guess. Sorry this visit was so bland, I've just been so tired lately. Anyway, you take it easy okay?

Will do, see you around.

All right then! In that case, I suppose I should get out of your mane and get home. I should probably get a nap in too, but that probably won't happen. *He smiled as he stood up, wobbling slightly as he did so.* I'll see ya around, duder! *With that he began slowly walking towards the exit.*

*Nitroxus waved as his friend left.*

*He waved back as he levitated himself slowly out of the bunker and back to his house, where he fell asleep on the floor directly after walking in.*

*Nyx stood up, not even noticing how close it had been. He hugged Nitro and smiled.* Well, thanks again for taking me out there. Now I have something to occupy me when I'm not working. Shall I let you know if I make any progress on fixing the jinx?

If you want to, I don't mind to listen to my friends on their findings. I hope you have a good night and I see you on the next one.

*He nodded, starting to head into the store. Before he did so, he turned around and said,* You have a good night too. I'm sorry things turned out the way they did. *With that, he disappeared into the store.*

*Nitroxus looked down and then began to float off with his hot air balloon.*

Nah, I've never really enjoyed being sane. Sanity is boring anyway. Besides, these powers could come in handy. *He summoned forth a large mocha latte and smiled.*

*It was still too hot to hold* Why make a drink if you can't drink it right away!

You don't judge my life choices! I shall drink coffee regardless of the temperature, because coffee is the elixir of life. *Takes a sip, seemingly unaffected by the temperature.*

Fine.

Yeah, that's probably a good idea. I did enjoy the movie though. It was fun! *He hoped that he hadn't ruined Nitro's night by being weird at the end. He walked home with Nitro, enjoying the quiet streets and light of the moon.*

*Nitroxus seemed to be okay, guessing at his attitude. It would take a lot to bother Nitroxus. The stallion was a calm guy.* So I guess this is then.

Yeah, I guess so, haha... Thank you again for this, it sure beat staying in and binge watching Dr. Whooves. *He bowed his head to Nitro.* Until we meet again, my friend! *He turned back towards his shop, but ran back and gave Nitro a quick hug first. He then made his way off to his apartment.*

*Nitroxus waved. Soon he climbed up the pole and untied the rope to his hot air balloon. He was in the basket and began to fly off* See ya later bro.

I see, I see... *He thought for a moment, wondering what he could make special as a treat based on Nitro's answer. Perhaps he could make a quiche of some sort? It did have cheese and a bit of a crust. He'd figure it out, one way or another.*

I guess it time for to getting going. *He pulled out some bits and paid Nyx.* Thank you for showing me a good time today

*He tilted his head and gave his trademarked smile* Of course, any time! Thank you for doing the same for me, and I hope to see you again! *He pushes Nitro's bits back to him, however.* There's no need to pay, this was on the house. Since you had to pay for Pacman at the arcade, hehe.

Oh okay. That's a new one on me. Well thank you. I will see you next time. *He got out of his seat and walked outside. He lfted a hoof to reach the rope to his hot-air balloon and climbed it upwards into the basket.*
