Nico -

As Leo looked at the list happily, Nico looked at her nails.

They were painted in, what seemed to be, some clear nail polish. The tips given glitter (lightly).

Leo quickly noticed his stares. She blushed, "Do you like them?" She questioned, giving a smile. Nico nodded. "Yeah. I think they're very pretty." He answered simply.

Not wanting to embarrass himself more, he closed his mouth.

"It's what my mom used to do with her nails sometimes. She liked painting them, just with a black color though. I think it was to blend in with the oil. She'd add yellow, orange, gold, sometimes even gray glitter." Leo told him, brushing her index nail with her thumb gently.

"T-that's pretty neat." Nico found himself answering. "You wanna help me with my other hand?" Leo asked nicely, showing her left hand. The nails were blank and untouched.

"S-sure." Nico stammered, secretly wanting to touch Leo's hands.

"Okay, I'll get the polish!" Leo exclaimed happily, jumping from the floor to the spot under her bed.

Nico gave a small grin at this.

She's really cute when she's happy.

He thought.

HEYYYYY!!! WASSUP??

I'm too excited.

Anyway. . . LEO NEEDS A NEW NAME (in my opinion. Some people, if transgender (or not I guess. . . You do you!!), choose to identify as a different gender and keep their. . . sexual bits (their parts if you will) and some transgender people also choose to keep their given name at birth. However, in some (if not many) cases, they feel the name is a connection to their old self. The self they didn't want to be/ was unhappy in. So they choose a different name that feels right to them.)!!!!

So, comment names, I guess? Yeah, comment some. It doesn't have to have any sort of meaning to you or to Leo's personality, I just need a feminine looking name. (Rylee is a feminine name (can be spelled Riley) and so is Sam and other names of the sort. But, it would be appreciated if you put the full name! Examples:

Samantha instead of Sam

Alexandra instead of Alex

Elliot instead of Ellie (yes that's a feminine name, my friend's name is Elliot, and she's amazing!)

Allison instead of Allie

. . .

I know they're just shortened versions of the actual names, but I want her to have a full name, and later on a shortened version. Does that make sense? Eh.)

Later!!
