Under warm 2700K interior light Feverish shifts subtly: drifts toward red; in north-facing or shaded light it is virtually unchanged. Overall drift across common illuminants is small (max ΔE ≈ 1.1), so it is a lighting-stable choice.

Against white it measures 3.36:1 and against black 6.24:1, so black text is the stronger pairing. That pairing passes WCAG AA for body text.
One color explored: close hues with real lightness and chroma structure, so the palette is the anchor through value rather than a set of colors.
#ffe3e5 · #ffa6ae · #dd6677 · #ba4d5e · #8d2b3e · #610620
The anchor's neighbours on the wheel — everything shares an undertone, so the chord carries color without anything having to be muted to get along.
#f59e77 · #eb8273 · #dd6677 · #be5881 · #9e4d84 · #7d4381
The mid-gap pairing — sage and mustard, terracotta and olive. A foil rotated 40–65° toward warm or cool: too far to be kin, too near to argue, carried by temperature and a deliberate value offset.
#d2a77e · #dd6677 · #b1505e · #7e4900 · #6d172a · #371c00
One deliberately opposed voice — a single restrained counterpoint across the wheel, or temperature against temperature where the anchor is too muted to carry a loud opposite.
#00e0dd · #dd6677 · #896769 · #793e45 · #55232a · #2e0e13
The anchor as the only color in the room. True neutrals or complement-warmed near-neutrals let it stay dominant.
#e3f7f6 · #dd6677 · #887072 · #3e4a4a · #2b1518 · #000202
This color as a ground rather than a subject — its own restraint held across a narrow value band, carrying one saturated voice from the opposite temperature.
#e6f5f5 · #bccdcc · #8da0a0 · #0b2727 · #000505 · #dd6677
The opposite hue on the perceptual wheel, tempered to field strength — warm/cool tension without vibration.
#d0fcfa · #dd6677 · #008987 · #005352 · #002322 · #160002
The complement's two neighbours instead of the complement itself — strong contrast with a lower clash risk.
#d0fcfa · #dd6677 · #0e8c63 · #005065 · #002416 · #000408
Three hues spaced evenly around the wheel; the anchor leads and the other two are held at supporting strength.
#e6f9da · #dd6677 · #5a8637 · #004788 · #001c3f · #000200
Two complementary pairs offset by 90° — the richest chord, kept usable by a strict lightness hierarchy.

#CF727D · #C07C82 · #B08588
Its chroma is high enough to carry accents, calls to action, and focal moments; large fields of it will dominate a composition. In palettes it pairs most predictably with its tonal ramp and analogous neighbors; reserve the complementary hue for small, deliberate contrast.
