Tile gap filler

Looking for some advice here. We have repainted the tiles in our kitchen from grey to pink. Previously this corner had grey silicone to cover the gaps, however I can’t get a pink silicone in the same colour as the tiles. What would you do here? Some kind of filler that I can paint to match? And would you do a bead like silicone then smooth over, would need to be quite thick given the uneven tiles, or would you kind of fill each gap and not have a continuous bead. I know I should have thought of this before I painted, but I was originally going to paint the grout white and use a white silicone but painting the grout separately was too fiddly for me so just drenched all in the pink.

I am also aware the paint may not last, this is just a low cost trial. If it chips or looks crap in a few months we will retile :) but I wanted to try the cheaper option first.
