#BACDD2 · #BECBD7
Four independent scores (read the one that fits your goal): Readability 0/100 (fail) · Harmony 82/100 (analogous) · Distinguishable 3/100 (hard to tell apart) · Match 90/100 (near match). There is no single “good/bad” — a pair can clash for text yet be great for an outfit.
Light Blue and Melody are very close (ΔE 4). They have closely related hues (16° apart) and their lightness is similar, so they read as two same-weight colours.
