"I dunno, what do you think looks good?" *she considered the canvas.*
"It's very...gothic. All the black and red. Well done."
*She glanced into the pot of red and saw it was almost empty.*
"I think I got most of this on the floor, though. Do you want me to nip out and get some more?"

*Brandi considered it, then nodded.*
"If you don't mind. I'll make some ice tea or lemonade or something and we can snack and then get back at it. I've got a whole roll of canvas. Cool?"

"Awesome. Should I take a sample of the colour or..."
*She glanced down at herself.*
"They'll know the one I mean. --back in a flash!"
*She grabbed her handbag and left the shed.*

((Well, I assume that Emily is coming back at some point. You could totally show up late. Until then, there's a paint covered sue!me in the kitchen. If you're interested.))

*Emily lugged the paint back into the shed and stretched out the canvas and eyed it critically, looking for places that could use more paint.*

*Brandi came up behind Emily, eying the painting, trying to see what she was looking at.*
"So whad'ya think?"
*She raised her brows at the painting, but then glanced back to Genghis who stood in the doorway of the shed, looking stern and mildly uncomfortable.*

"Needs a little more on the left side..." *she muttered, keeping her eyes fastened on the painting.*

*Brandi suppressed a laugh and dunked her hand in the fresh paint and lunged over to fill the space. Then she leaned back and wiped her forehead, accidentally smearing fresh paint there as she grinned back at Emily.*
"Better?"

"Definitely." *She laughed as she pried the lid off the red paint and dipped the brush and her hands in it before attacking the canvas.*

*Brandi stepped back and let her go. Maybe Emily was still trying to work things out. Best to leave her on her own for a bit. She didn't want to lose an eye. She walked back to Genghis, her back to Emily and her voice in a private whisper to him.*
"She does have a bit of warrior princess in her, doesn't she? I can't blame you."
*She looked up to him, meeting his gaze knowingly.*
"I'm sorry that things are...complicated."
*She pursed her lips and turned to watch Emily. Genghis's eyes widened and he bristled a little, but figured that he could interrogate this girl later. His eyes turned back to Emily.*

*Emily was blissfully unaware that Brandi had slipped away as she painted. A thought struck her and she focused for a moment on a sheet-covered blob in the corner, stretching her hands out towards it and moving her hands as if moulding invisible clay in mid-air. It turned out to be a stereo and seconds later, "A Little Less Conversation" began to filter through the speakers and she went on flinging paint at the canvas.*

Alright, alright...I'll stay focused.
*Brandi picked up a few cans of paint in new colors and opened them, setting them at Emily's feet.*
"Can I get you anything else?"

"Nah, this should be fine. Aren't you going to do anymore?" *she asked.*
((I've gotta run to work. Back in a bit, hopefully.))
