Coloratura sat down where her son had pointed his hoof and patiently waited as his adjust the makeup brush through the straps with this teeth. “I’m excited to see what you come up with.” She watched as Lyrebird turned his gaze up from his brushes to answer her with an embarrassed smiled. He got embarrassed every time she spoke of how talented he was but she couldn’t help but let him know every chance she got.  
“No promises i won’t mess up.” He averted his gaze back down to his pile of make up and flipped open one of several palettes spread around him. “This color…” He mumbled to himself as he pressed down the brush gently onto the teal-blue shade.  
Songbird watched as he shook off the excess powder onto the lid of Colortura’s eyes. “He seems focused.” She stepped closer from behind her wife to watch as their son continued his work. “You helping him out Lilith?”  
The gothic mare nodded her head as she also focused on what Lyrebird was doing. “Making sure he doesn’t mess it up” She answered bluntly.  
Lyrebird’s slight smile reappeared as her rolled his eyes at this friend, “What help you are!”
