suffuses
Gradually fills completely
Suffuses means to spread throughout or fill completely, especially with light, color, or emotion.
When something suffuses a space or person, it permeates gradually and thoroughly rather than appearing suddenly.
A warm glow suffused the room as the sun set.
Embarrassment suffused her face with color.
The word suggests a gentle, pervasive quality—light suffuses a landscape, joy suffuses someone's expression, or a blush suffuses the cheeks.
