The energy in the room was electric, a blend of focused professionalism and creative passion. Delphinia watched for a moment, taking in the scene as makeup artists made quick touch-ups between shots, and stylists adjusted Lydia's outfit with swift, practiced movements.

Ashton glanced at Delphinia, silently asking for approval. She gave him a small nod, her lips curving into an encouraging smile. "Go on, sweetheart. Have a little adventure."

Satisfied with her answer, Ashton turned back to Cedric, who grinned and ruffled his hair. "Alright, let's go see what we can find."
