Black.

[i would think that would be obvious.]

[ Ask an obvious question, get an obvious answer... He did hope. It was futile hope. ]

... Well, we are currently lacking in a true black, but that is not an issue some blues and browns cannot fix. 'Tis best to mix the colors in that fashion, anyroad—black has a way of muddying the palette.

[ "is he blabbing on about color theory?" unfortunately yes. ]

Now, let us see here... hmm... All right, I think I've got it. Pray pose in a manner that is most comfortable for you, Harrowhark, and I shall begin.

[she's not going to pose at all, she's just going to stand there with her arms crossed looking very uncomfortable and frowning.]

How much longer?

[sageguidance]

Just about done. Only a couple more strokes, aaand…

[ one brush stroke, two brush stroke— ]

I believe it now finished! What do you think?

[ When she comes to look, Harrow will see a portrait of herself… that is actually really good? It’s quite spot on, made up of blues and purples primarily for a bit of artistic license. Alphinaud has clearly spent a long time painting portraits. ]

Let's see - oh. It is not bad.

[she still grimaces a bit to see her painted there in all her awkward glory, but the colors are nice. in fact, after a moment, she abruptly starts to tear up.]

[sageguidance]

[ uh, ]

H- Harrowhark? Are you quite well? ... Or is it actually terrible?

[outsidebones]

[sniffling and wiping away at her tears.]

I'm not...I'm not certain what's wrong.

[sageguidance]

Are you sure? ... Erm. Do you need a moment?

[outsidebones]

[she's furiously wiping her face.]

I'm fine!

[and she'll also start coughing some blue and purple petals.]

[sageguidance]

[ catch me out here forgetting it was flower barf week. needless to say, Alphinaud is growing alarmed. ]

P- perhaps we should find you someplace to sit?! Do... do you need water?
