[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?

Red, of course. I'm sure someone as intelligent as you can figure out why.

Sort of. My life stream is blue and Nina's is yellow and Cray's is red.

There's not a lot of color where I come from.

[Not counting people's hair. Well, okay. There's a lot of GREY and BROWN.]

So what little color we did have was pretty important.

Most clans from my land tend to adopt a particular colour; that colour will then be used primarily in the clothing and armour of their warriors, as well as in a more general decorative sense.

[He pauses, tilts his head, and then adds softly:]

But if you wish for something more personal, then I associate many shades of blue with my Lord Motochika. His clan colour is a shade of light blue, though that is not really why I do so.

Twelve, not eight.

[Excuse him while he nitpicks forever.]

Perhaps even thirteen, although no one would ever be able to say by now, I imagine. And on Alternia, all of those colors meant something.

[Hemospectrum and all.]

Come to think of it, [she ponders this idea for a moment, mulling it over in her mind with careful consideration] you're totally right! I mean, my favorite color is yellow because [wait for it...] bananas are yellow, too.

[Symbolic, right?]

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.

All Sacred Order uniforms were white with borders of color. The blue represents my status as a lightning user with magic. Sol's was red, for fire, when he was in the Order.

[Yes, he's giving a logistical answer rather than an emotional one. But he doesn't know that he has an emotional answer to give at all.]

Red... It is the color of fire and passion. [And blood.]

P-purple. I don't really... like it though.

My name means "blue child," so blue's always been an important color to me.

Isn't it seven colors? [And he counts off of his fingers.] R-O-Y-G-B-I-V. Yeah! Seven colors of the rainbow. Normally they simplify it to like five or six though. [A roll of his shoulder before he jerk his thumb to point to himself.] Red means something. My best-
[There was a pause before he looked down at his camo shoes.] I guess that isn't true any more. A friend game me something red. [Fishes it out of his pocket to hold out a palm sized red crystal sphere.]

I think it would be red for me, because...

[Because Iria has red hair and red eyes.

he suddenly blushes.]

Ah, n-no, never mind that!

[And suddenly, with the faint smell of alcohol, there's an Otoha behind you, Johnny.]

Why the rainbow question?
