*bites her lip, quickly hiding a laugh behind a hand* Sorry. Just...
*looks at him, smiling* No, not awful. It's a compliment to your skill if your Mum wants a commission from you, isn't it? Even if, erm, your sister isn't really the kind of subject you like...?
Oh. This is your older sister? The one you find annoying? That's too bad- maybe you could tell her your hand is um, sore from painting and that you need to take a break for a while.
*nods quickly* That's the one. Wouldn't really mind painting Cordelia. Used to sketch her sometimes. But- *blanches a bit at his suggestion* Erm... No. Rather not even pretend to have sore hands. It's inviting trouble.

Yeah, I know... But... It's Miranda. Anyway I think she's rather obligated to ask me for art. Cause she's my Mum.

Something wrong, Anthony? You look like you just found out about a detention with Snape, or something.
Do you have IM? I was wondering if I could ask you something about Lily and Minerva.

So you've agreed to paint Blaise's portrait.

*drops his eyes to the ground and nods*
Yeah. But only after he promised to talk to you.
