She grinned and went back to her painting. She was humming to herself trying t finish up her sky. When she was satisfied, she changed out to a larger brush, and knelt down and dipped it in green trying to paint the grass, giving it some depth. "Hey..." He realized perking up a bit. She wiped her cheek with her hand smearing green pain. "I never asked your name."

Nero watched curiously. Her paint brush seemed to dance across the wall yet trailing behind it was a rainbow of bright, vibrant colors. He was used to the finger paintings that the orphans would create, but this was something new. Nero moved his eye off the painting and looked down to the girl, "Nero."

"Nero." She repeated it to herself trying to commit to memory the name and face. "Like the Roman emperor!" She grinned happily realizing she now had a way to remember it. "That's a cool name!" She added with childlike earnestness. "I'm Gwenivere but you can call me Gwen since Gwenivere is like super hard to say in Japanese." She was talking with those dramatic arm motions again, sending green paint in all directions like little grassy raindrops splattering on the otherwise drab room.

Nero shrugged, he never really thought that his name was anything too special. Nero watched as Gwen let her arms dramatically dance around again and send the green pain flying. A few drops hit Nero's exposed chest and the sleeve of his coat. He looked down to the green on his chest and wiped it off. He looked to the wall then to the green paint on his finger. He went over to the wall and got down on his knees. He picked up the green paint and looked to Gwen, "May I?"

"Oh! Go ahead!" She looked down at him still standing on the table her golden ankle bracelets jingling with every little step her bare feet took on the rough pool table. "Sorry if I got you with the paint..." she added awkwardly. "I get very excited when I talk."

Nero shrugged, signalling that he did not mind if a little paint got on him. He picked up a large brush and dipped it into a navy blue. He used to watch the younger kids back at the orphanage do this all the time, yet he never tried it himself. Nero painted on a thin layer of navy on his hand and pressed it against the wall. He held it there for a few seconds then slowly pulled it away revealing his rough hand print. Nero put the big brush down then picked up a smaller brush and dabbed it in a light green. He made a line at the bottom of his print's palm and two leafs sticking out from the sides. He put the paint brush down and looked at what he created. A hand print flower; it used to be the kids' favorite thing to make. Just seeing it reminded Nero of them.

"Ahh!" she clapped her hands again, three times. "I love it!" she giggled as she continued adding shade to the grass giving it depth. "It adds so much personality to the wall." she stepped back almost losing her balance on the pool table as her heel sunk into one of the pockets but she recovered and re adjusted her posture. She admired the single flower in relation to her masterpiece. "I like the color choice!" she added cheerily walking back to the wall again. "It really pops!"

"Thank you." Nero soaked a big paint brush in the water cup and used it to try to clean his hand. He moved his eye back up to the wall as he watched Gwen add more detail to it. She wasn't lying, the single hand print flower did seem to pop. It gave the master piece a slightly childish look. In all, however, it was turning out beautiful.

"You should do more...." she told him nudging her paints toward him carefully with her foot. "I think an orange might go nicely with your purple..." she grinned at him gesturing to the green field that joined the vast blue sky that covered the entire wall, making the other three look more drab by comparison. "We have s lot of room to fill up with flowers!" She looked around the room as a whole. "When I finish this wall I'm going to paint them all, and the ceiling!"

Nero looked down to the paint then back at her. He didn't realize she would like it so much, he just wanted to try it since he never did when he was younger. He looked around the room as she talked about painting all walls and ceiling. "That may take a while." Nero picked up the big paint brush and dipped it in the orange, reapplying paint to his hand as he pressed it to the wall just as he previously did.

"I have a long time." She replied happily. "After all, I'm stuck here till mother decides I'm well again..." She frowned. "Or something along those lines I think..." She shrugged dismissively of the subject, going back to her paintings, finding them much more interesting. "Yes, orange was a good color!"

"Don't we all..." Nero sighed, even though most deadmen he knew of were on death row just like he was. He pulled his hand away and looked to the orange print. After adding on the stem and leafs, he turned and looked up to Gwen, waiting on her next suggestion.

"We could use a darker blue, maybe a pink?" she suggested still working intently on her grass and shading. It was really brightening up the room, everything was more lively it seemed to bring life back to the dead grey walls.

Nero turned his eye to the wall. He wasn't a pink person but it would be a nice bright color. He painted it onto his hand and pressed it against the wall. Nero admired Robin's vision to completely transform the room and make it feel like a different world. It was better than the world they lived in now.

"I'm glad everything is brighter, it was just so drab in here. Like a prison! Well..." she bit her lip rethinking her phrasing, "I suppose it is a prison but that's no reason for such a depressing atmosphere. If all we see is grey and unchanging how are we supposed to be healthy again?" she decided on this as her argument, strong and solid. "Let's get yellow next!"
