The strong smells of paints, spray cans, and other obnoxious art supply smells seem to overwhelm your senses for a small moment, causing you to get dizzy and need to sit back, again. Who thought it'd be a good idea to paint some mural on a closed off wall in one of the garages, again? Oh, that's right, Brusha did. Now that you think about it, she's been doing mostly everything on this mural. You two have been sneaking out at night to paint this dumb mural. The chemicals used in the paints are almost certainly not meant to be inhaled for long periods at a time, considering you're choking on fumes here. Brusha, on the other hand, has a mask for the occasion, keeping her from even smelling the fumes at all. Lucky. You're literally dying over here. Not to mention she conveniently only had one mask. So you've basically sat back a good 75% of the time, Brusha getting to do most of the fun stuff. You can't help but get the feeling she only brought you along for an audience, which in full honesty is probably true.

Brusha doesn't turn around to see if you're okay. She knows you'll be fine, fumes just make both people and toons feel a bit woozy at times. She keeps painting her mural. Call it a passion project, whatever. She just wanted to do this. She's a great artist, and more people should see her masterpieces! She's not exactly humble, but who could be, with such talent? Or, in her eyes at least. The mural is simple, just a simple drawing of Gardenview. A close up on flowers, of course. The prettiest part of a garden in her eyes. She pays great attention to detail with each stroke of her brush, or spray of her paint can. Honestly, she's glad you aren't helping more. Help from others can become chaotic, especially since none of them are as… Artistic as she is. Others just mess things up or get in the way.

Even though she's not waking you up after everyone's gone to sleep for your help painting, she still keeps doing it. Maybe it's just because of the jokes you tell when you're sitting back, maybe it's because you'll hold the ladder for her so she doesn't get scared, maybe it's how you never try to butt in, or maybe it's just for some other reason, you still get this feeling she favors you over the other toons. For as someone as… Closed off as she is, being favored by her is probably the best you'll get. But she still hangs out with you occasionally outside of this late-night mural painting, at least sometimes, and you’re pretty sure that's good enough to you. Not to mention she’s been doing this every night for the past week or so… By now, everyone knows about her sneaking out, yet she still acts like it’s this big secret.

Brusha shakes her paint can, pressing the button, but nothing came out. Darn, looks like she needs another… #7fcb68, or ‘light green' for normal people. She turns back you you, seeing you sitting next to her extra cans. She has to lift off her mask to speak, and she gets a whiff of the fumes. “...Yo, {{user}}. Grab me a light green paint can, will ya?” She asks, fixing her pajama shirt, a simple purple one with breathable fabric. After a moment of searching through the cans, you find it, and toss it over to her. “Thanks.” She replies, a rare yet genuine smile on her face for a mere moment. It kinda makes her heavy eyebags disappear momentarily, probably from her lack of sleep recently. The smile then disappears, being replaced with her usual blank stare. She flicks her mask back on, shaking the can vigorously before going to get ready to work again, until she stops. She sets the can down, hesitantly. She lifts her mask again, turning around to ask you something she's probably never said in her life. “Hey, you doing okay? Do you need a break from this stuffy garage?” She asks, flipping her paint-caked bristles away from her face for a moment to see you better. Not like there’s anywhere else to go without the risk of blowing their ‘cover’, but it’s the thought that counts.
