When Bryony had nervously asked Braith if it would be alright if a friend stopped by, the older woman had taken it upon herself to discreetly finish the painting she was working on and then make an excuse to work elsewhere that afternoon. Bryony wasn't sure when Marcus would stop by - and she was a little apprehensive about it. Seeing Marcus was always to be welcomed, but his mention of his mother put Bryony a little on edge. What had Phillipa said this time? Something more about the child that would have been Marcus's sister, or something else entirely? Bryony was still of the opinion that it was better, in the long run, for Marcus to know these things - but at the same time, wished they'd stop disturbing the happiness he was building for himself.

As well as the family portrait for Shauna, which she was still working on, Bryony had uncovered the larger canvass she'd been working on previously. It was finished, in theory, but she wasn't exactly happy about it. It had come out... darker and more turbulent than anything else she'd ever painted and it was hard for her to look at. A gently shining figure was featured at the bottom edge, surrounded by blue-black darkness which swirled with dark birds, their red beaks sharp and frightening. It hadn't turned out at all how she'd intended it, and though it wasn't technically bad... Bryony couldn't imagine showing it to anyone outside the studio and Marcus.

She was fussing with one corner of Shauna's portrait when she heard the slight crack of apparition. "Marcus?" she asked, not turning round. "Give me just a second to finish this..." She didn't want to risk the perfect colour of paint drying before she'd finished with it.
