I am in second grade I have the biggest crush on my teacher He is kind and nice In my seven-year-old eyes he is the smartest person When he asks us to color in a picture with our favorite color My page is covered in greens and blue and reds and- I use every crayon in the box My teach comes over He frowns and asks me to pick one color I tell him I like all the colors He tells me every color can’t be my favorite He is the smartest person I know He must be right My little teddy bear heart breaks I am in sixth grade We have to interview each other One of the questions asked What is your favorite color I happily answer all of them My partner frowns at me You have to pick one I tell him I like all the colors the same On the paper he writes down blue Says I can borrow his favorite color It is kind But still feels like I am lying Good intentions It still feels like something is being stolen from me I am in eighth grade We have to write an essay about who we are They ask us to include our favorite things Including our favorite color My paper is perfect At least to me It is twice as long as asked to be I’m sure my teacher will love it When she reads it she frowns Hands it back Tells me I did it incorrectly I have to pick one favorite I grow tired of people frowning at me I sigh and write down blue I guess I’ll share that color afterall I start telling people my favorite color is blue Less explaining that way Less fighting to validate myself that way Less people frowning at me that way Fast forward to college It is pride week Rainbows litter my vision I already know who I am sexuality wise Here I am allowed to like all the colors We fill out a forum To introduce ourselves Under favorite color I write color wheel They smile Ask me if I meant rainbow Without meaning to they are still asking me to pick The rainbow doesn’t have all the colors Seafoam green Golden brown   It doesn’t hold the color of sunlight reflecting on grass Doesn’t have the color of clouds against the moon I try to find the words to explain this I can’t find them So I cross out my answer and write rainbow I was taught to pick From an early age I was taught only certain shades mattered I was taught that people who could pick were better Pick a color You can’t like them all Pick a label You have too many Pick a gender Stop being selfish I’ve been trained to pick I’ve picked until I lost myself Not anymore My favorite color is the color wheel My sexuality is my own As is my gender I will not pick I will not give away parts of myself Because not only do I like all the colors I am all the colors

“Color Wheel” (or How I figured out I was genderfluid)

“The cliches of the genre were to desaturate the cinematography. So [George Miller] and great Australian cinematographer John Seale (dragged out of retirement), saturated the color. ‘We were able to change the skies, and go against the idea that because it’s the apocalypse, there’s no longer any beauty in the world.‘” - Anne Thompson, Film Columnist
 “The desert sand in Namibia is, in reality, closer to be gray color, but pushing it toward rich gold colors complemented the characters and vehicles, providing a strong, graphic look. The only other dominant color in the film was blue sky, which we embraced.“ - Eric Whipp, Senior Colorist

With my paint box at home, I can make every color imaginable. Pink. As pale as a baby’s skin. Or as deep as rhubarb. Green like spring grass. Blue that shimmers like ice on water. One time, I spent three days mixing paint until I found the right shade for sunlight on white fur. You see, I kept thinking it was yellow, but it was much more than that. Layers of all sorts of color. One by one. I haven’t figured out a rainbow yet. They come so quickly and leave so soon. I never have enough time to capture them. Just a bit of blue here or purple there. And then they fade away again. Back into the air.

so that post going around about soulmates and the world being black and white until you meet yours, then and only then do you see colors

so imagine four year old scott and stiles meeting and everything bursts into color and because they’re so young, they grow up not even remembering a world without it

imagine the people that assume they’re lying about that awesome tree with purple flowers because no one that young can see color

imagine the conflicted feelings their parents have for a multitude of reasons, and maybe stiles’s mom is the only one of the four that is completely happy and accepting of it

imagine them going through life, going through middle school as more or less the only kids that knew what red and yellow and green and blue looked like

imagine how, because they never knew anything else, the full extent of what this means is lost on them, and while they technically get it, it’s not A Thing, it’s just how it is, brothers and best friends forever.

(and then imagine how scott’s world somehow gets even brighter when he meets allison, and how confusing that is for both him AND stiles, though stiles doesn’t really get why

and then imagine how scott’s world goes gray when allison dies.

it takes months before the color beings to slowly seep back in, months of being with stiles, and it’s only then that scott really understands what a big deal this is, this soulmate world-coloring thing because holy shit, he forgot how beautiful everything is, how beautiful stiles looks in vivid shades that used to be the norm

and damn, was his mouth always that pink?)

The Psychology of Color
An Infographic by Carey Jolliffe Graphic Arts 

A very good reference for Writers, too.  The color of a room, or someone’s clothing can convey emotion or a state of being, or even set the tone for a setting or a situation. Colors often come with ingrained connotations - they certainly have strong meanings in Asian cultures, and in European cultures they have intrinsically understood meanings.

Red - passion, blood, anger, fire (for example)

This is going in my writer’s journal.
