It was your profile that did it

You have been standing in front of very flattering drapes. […]

They explain, rather urgently, what they can afford to pay: they're plainly stretching their budget just as far as it will go. They try to make up for it in wine.

Helicon House Companion	Last Paragraph
	As they were already in a convivial mood, this results in a somewhat giddy evening, as the artist sketches you repeatedly, with an ever less steady hand, and an ever greater disregard for convention. The last drawings are unquestionably the best.
	When the artist steps out of the room, Starry-Eyed Scoundrel glances around the studio, pauses thoughtfully on the gilded snuffbox, […] there's no point in stealing this young person's most valuable possession when its worth is still so minimal.
	[…] the Stormy-Eyed Scoundrel glances around […] pauses thoughtfully on the […] snuffbox, and then gives you a rueful smile. He seems to feel that there's no point in stealing this young person's most valuable possession when its worth is still so minimal.
	Your companion tolerates this, though he does contort his face rather. […] the artist begs him to stop scowling, and somehow he fails to comprehend or obey. […] he is uncomfortable having his likeness made lest it jog the memory of a past victim.
	Will your spouse tolerate this? Doing a bit of professional work at a fraction of her usual pay, […] her patience does not run out before the artist has accomplished a curious picture of her 'as the Red Queen in Dreams.' […]
	If there is one thing the Admiralty Lackey is proficient at, it is standing to attention. The artist gives up rather quickly on encouraging him to relax, but you cannot fault his stillness.
Roguish Semiotician	The artist resorts to painting the Roguish Semiotician as a nervous blur that breaks perspective and shape; he fidgets too much to model for a conventional portrait. Your spouse is more than happy with the result, however.
Infamous Mathematician	The artist has to adjust his composition a little – the Infamous Mathematician is taller than most subjects. But he does a great job of capturing the implicit mischief hiding even in her 'serious' expression.
	Your spouse is very patient during the sketching process, but it is an awkward affair.
	Your spouse tolerates being sketched, but appears to be gathering as much intel as possible about the artist.
	The artist proposes a very Zee-worthy outfit for your spouse. "Just looked like it would fit."
	Your spouse has so many suggestions about the art that the artist invites input on the other side of the easel.
	The Palaeontologist asks to model with a prop femur, and there is a long conversation about the most illustrative angle for its display.
	The artist has a detailed plan for his composition: sadly he was not expecting to arrange it for so many figures. The whole thing needs to be entirely reimagined.
Both your spouses	You sit for a group portrait, flanked on either side by your spouses. The Infamous Mathematician lays an affectionate hand on the Roguish Semiotician's shoulder, to keep him still for long enough to be sketched.
	Your (resurrected loved one) is subdued, but not unwilling. The artist compliments the abstraction in their eyes, finding it very evocative and distant, 'like you can see all the way to the shore of death.' Not, perhaps, the happiest observation.
	"Always good practice to do a family grouping," says the artist, cutting a point into his pencil. "I always try if I can capture a little of the history, you know, the relationship between people."
	Your Accomplice has always been good at making an impression. The artist does not quite know what to do with inspiration of this calibre, but he is enjoying the attempt.
	Your platonic partner in crime shies from the limelight, so that the picture is chiascuro in extremis.
	The Genre Painter fidgets as he sits. It's hard for him not to ask to see the painting before it's completed, or not to offer an opinion – occupational hazard, perhaps. The resulting portrait carries that restless energy.
	The Prescient Automatist fidgets as he sits. It's hard for him not to ask to see the painting before it's completed, or not to offer an opinion – occupational hazard, perhaps. The resulting portrait carries that restless energy.
	Your Noman stands very still, occasionally dripping.
Player Spouse	Your spouse is very patient during the sketching process. They've learned to cooperate.
