caughtinanetwork | [Video] With all the colors in the rainbow...

[Here's one(1) vampire currently leaning against the railing of his apartment's balcony, looking a little contemplative today. He takes a moment to puff on the cigarette he was currently working on before acknowledging the SFC.]

People always say 'all of the colors in the rainbow' and assume those 8 are it. But, in reality, the number of color possibilities are endless. Even Black and white, which might be considered the end-points of the color spectrum, have different shades to them.

[He looks thoughtful a moment and smirks.]

And, to avoid the debate on whether black and white are actually colors, let's just go with the assumption that they are, just for this one question.

Anyway, with all of these colors out there, there's bound to be a few that represent one thing or another. People like association, so it's bound to happen that one particular color will mean something to a society or a group of friends or, even, a single person.

Are there any colors like that for any of you? Any that mean anything in particular?

I'm known as either the Red Lotus or Crimson Alchemist in my world, though I've always been a little more partial to wearing white when it comes to clothing.

Hmm...would that be red for fire or red for blood?

And what about the white? Is that for purity or just because you like the color?

...Neither one.

_{[Because red clearly means something bad everywhere, right?]}

In some cultures, the red lotus can symbolize quite a few things but I can't recall fire or blood being part of it.

_{[Actually in his case it's more of his explosions, but details.]}

It represents the heart--this includes love, compassion, passion and many other qualities of it.

As for white, I suppose it's personal preference. I've been told it's a color of mourning and death which could be fitting considering my past.

Passion, yes, I've heard that one as well~ Those are all very good things to associate with a color.

As for white....I suppose it does depend on culture, where I'm from, white symbolizes purity, holiness, and light~
