Welcome to Gaia! ::

She walks swiftly behind him, trying hard to keep pace without breaking into a run which could produce interesting results considering she hasn't tested her speed yet. When they reach the apartment, she sighs in relief, knowing he needed something, though what that is she can't say. "I don't need to, thank you though. It was just all those people being around," she explains, it being the absolute truth. With that being said, she walks over to the paint cans, setting down her own. "Yeah, this is going to be fun!" she chuckles softly. She grabs the one labeled 'midnight blue and pops the lid off with ease. She then goes back to the closet to grab the paint brushes and rollers, plus the tape and tarps. She chuckles, glad that none of the real nice stuff is out for she can just easily cover the counters and the ground for the paint wouldn't stain. "Alright, I'll be right back. I gotta change out of these nice cloths into my old ones for i don't wreak the stuff that actually fits," she states, walking to her room and shutting the door. Now, where are those stupid dresses?

She soon finds the box labeled 'day dresses', them being forfeit for her hunt for a dress to destroy. The other box of dresses were too nice and expensive to destroy during painting, but these ones, the paint would be an improvement to their design. So, she once again tugs off her top and pants(carefully so as to not tear them) before pulling on a hideously pink, frilly dress. Luckily it was spaghetti strapped so it wasn't tight on her, just a tad bit shorter than the dress was intended to be. Finished changing, she walks back out of her room, being hit with a pain in her head and the confusion of emotions once again. "Cade, what's up? Why are you so out of it?" she asks, walking behind him to wrap her arms around his waist(not really tall enough to wrap her arms around his shoulders without going on her tippy toes).

She sighs when he flinches in her grasp, not letting go for she wouldn't make him jumpier and she is determined to figure out what is wrong! She sighs softly at his explination, taking in his scent for comfort and strength to help him. "Then, we'll make new memories, to replace the ones trying to surface. You're probably accidentally fighting the return of your memories, wanting to remain as is. But, the past is the past, it is as much a part of you as the present so you must acknowledge it, Cade. So, stop fighting and embrace what comes to you and the pain should stop. At least, that's my theory," she whispers softly, using her arms as anchors to the present, to her own selfish wants.

"No matter who you used to be, I'll stay by your side," she whispers, glimpsing the pictures, the fear of the memories hidden deep within him. She continues to hold him close, to be a comfort to him. "Well, for the moment, let's keep your mind on the present. Let's redecorate, shall we? You set up the tarps on the countertops and the unruined furniture, and I'll get the paint into the trays," she states, smiling brightly. She lets go, turning to do as she said she would, eager to get him feeling alright.

She smiles brightly, looking at the selection of colors they have to cover the hideously pink walls. When he walks out with just his pants on, she blushed softly, eyes roaming his body appreciatively, even with the scars he is handsome. When she noticed him looking to her for orders, she passes him a roller. "You're taller and don't really need a step ladder, so please set to coloring the ceiling the midnight blue please," she states, walking over to the pan filled with grass green, grabbing a roller. "So, let's get to work!" she exclaims happily, tipping it in to start with the left, far side wall. Ah, the perks to being rich, you're allowed to mess with an apartment and as long as you compensate, they won't say crap!

She smirks, painting rolling hills with the roller while making sure to not to go too high with it since she wanted the dominate feature to be the sunset/night sky theme. Whenever she runs into furinture, she easily grabs the piece and moves it out of the way, chuckling in awe of her new strength. Yes, she could've gone without the surprise turn, but she can definently get used to this! She continues to each wall until she is done with the grass green, nodding in satisfaction. She looks over to Cade, poor guy being speckled the color of the night sky.

She blinks at him in surprise when he accidentally gives himself a warpaint mask, barely resisting laughing out loud at his expense. "Thanks, warrior. Your work is much appreciated." Sure, she could resist laughing but she couldn't resist getting that jibe in. She walks over to the next color, burnt sienna and pours in a decent amount into the tray. She then grabs the violet and pours that into it's own tray. "Using the same roller, go ahead and paint the far left side this color so it blends into the midnight blue, okay? Go all the way to the hills I painted," she explains, pointing to the far wall that acts as the kitchen area. She then grabs her own tray and a fresh roller and walks over to the side she started the hills on, deciding this side to be a forest type setting. But then she sets the things down, almost forgetting about the sun that needs to be on that horizon. She walks over, removing a black marker(the unscented type) and draws a large circle that encompasses most of the kitchen wall. "Try to not go to the inside of this line, alright? Wanna have the sun there," she states with a nod, walking back over to her wall to start the forest.
