"A little of this... A pinch of this... Or five..." Bambina, said giggling brightly at her own little joke as she worked in town on making some new fireworks for a town party later in the week. Bambina tended to do a lot! Aside from being a Saddle, she also masqueraded in town as a mining, fireworks, and explosives salespony, as well as a saloon gal. Currenty, she was making sales, as well as making more product. Not all of this was for the aprty, moreover, she just liked making things that went boom!

Esperanza, a bit new to Appeloosa, had come to wander about the town a bit, looking for any little odd job she could do to earn a living. She so far had no luck, but she kept looking. With a bit of a sigh, she took a break and sat down, looking around for a moment.
"There must be something I can do," she muttered to herself as she looked around.

"Something I can do for you little bambina?" Bambina asked Esperanza, who had perched down upon some of her supplies. Granted, gunpowder bags were sometimes pretty comey, like a beanbag chair! Having overheard her she tilted her head, "Anything the matter?" she offered to lend a sympathetic ear.

"Eek!" she squeaked and fell back slightly. She hadn't seen the other pony there and hearing her speak had startled her slightly. Straightening, she looked at what she had been sitting on, but then looked to the other unicorn. "Perdóneme...erm...I mean...forgive me. I did not see you there." She grinned shyly and shuffled a hoof before her. "Matter? Ah si. I have been looking for something to do to earn some bits, but so far I am having no luck."

"Oh, le mie scuse," Bambina said at the startled yelp of the other pony. Giving her a moment to recollect herself and finish talking before continuing herself, rather abruptly at that! "Pays by the 'work done. The more fireworks you get done, the more I pay you. L'hai memorizzato?" she asked, "Now, we'll start you easy then," Bambina said, handing her a simple bag of gunpowder, a bag of fuses, and a bag of capsules and caps, "Fill the capsules, cap, and snip off 3 inches of fuse and insert into the hole in the cracker, si?" she asked rhetorically before getting back to work on her own stuff.

The unicorn watched the othere for a moment and looked to the bags that were given to her. She watched the other after she was told what to do and then opened each bag. "Like this?" she asked and, though slowly, she worked on one, doing as she was instructed, making sure she did it right. Once she had the first one done, she glanced the other. "Correct?"
She didn't want to mess anything up and have something go wrong should these be used for anything. She would be mortified if she caused an accident.

"Si! Very good start!" she encouraged her new temporary employee. She was admittedly a little surprised that this mare had taken up the job without much questioning at all. Deciing to not be in teh dark anymore, Bambina paused to extend a hoof, "Bambina is the name. What is yours?" she asked with a very tiny headtilt.

Esperanza smiled in hearing she had indeed done it right and brought out a second to start work on that. She was careful as before, though as the other extended her hoof for an introduction, she extended her own. "My name is Esperanza. It is nice to meet you Bambina." Smile widened a bit and she shifted a little. "It is nice to find something to do and I am glad you trust me enough to work on these."
She drew her hoof back and moved on to a third, then a fourth, each time being careful to make one like the first. She was steady and moved at a simple pace.
