She's someone that I don't have any worry about saying, I look up to her. It's not really something I'm used to - not because I'm better than anyone, I'm not, but just because she's got something I don't think a lot of other people do, like a willpower. Every time she speaks I see this beautiful mahogany, it has the passion of a deep red but the rigidity and stability of a brown. It's beautiful and so far she's the only one who has it from what I've seen!

Her speech is a wonderful honey yellow, with maybe a hint of that same brown that Emma has in her. It creates this wonderful orange somewhere between a fruit and a sunrise. It's something really special to see someone who is so strong-willed be represented by yellow in that way. It shows that while she is most likely a little bit stubborn she is kind at her core. That is something that I think she probably doesn't appreciate about herself. Not because I know that about her, but mostly because no one appreciates the subtle things about themselves, I think.

I hate not knowing how to help someone, so much. I've seen him and Officer Monyethebeng eating sometimes, but I've also seen Officer Monyethebeng drinking and he radiates this false happiness as well. They both have me worried, at least when they're together their colours mix into a beautiful orange, it is... Content? I think that's the best way to describe it at least.

Jack is an absolutely fascinating man. Unlike most people, he doesn't tend to radiate colour, in fact it only really comes out when he speaks. When he does though it is a wonderful mint green, the most refreshing colour you've ever seen! I think he could really charm a lady one day, even if he does seem a little shy and maybe a bit worried about first impressions! I think that he doesn’t have anything to worry about though, no one that kind can remain without friends for too long.

Indigo’s purple is something of a light purple. It is… Kind of empty, it is certainly passionate, but I don’t think that passion is real, or maybe not true? There’s something there, small embers of a will but it feels… Forgotten. But that's not actually all. I think that there's a part of herself that she doesn't really let breathe too much, because every once in a while there is just the smallest hint of a kind of green. So, I think that maybe she feels lost I guess? It’s big world out there, I would never blame her for something like that.

I think it's so cool. I can't really tell too much about her shade of blue but it is definitely blue, a blue that maybe represents just how boundless her drive is. Something like the blue of our planet itself maybe? I'd absolutely love to meet her, I would just leap at the opportunity if I ever got it! I've never met a celebrity before!

His colour is maybe the most unique in all of Edgetoun. Well, not the colour itself which is a dark rouge, but more how he uses it. I swear he is using it hide his actual emotion at all times. Because it is the most consistent emotion in the entire town. I suppose it could possibly be that he has been stuck in a rut for a long time, but that just doesn't make sense to me! I've seen him exhibit at least one different emotion, but without a blink or momentary lapse in that colour, it's kind of incredible actually.

Simone is just an absolute joy to work with I think she was a little suspicious of my intentions at first, like I came off as too nice. I don't mind the misunderstanding at all, but that just made me a little bit sad. I hope she hasn't been lied to or hurt in the past by someone doing that, I think that's just the worst kind of thing someone could do to another person. I always try to remember to buy her a drink when I'm coming into work, but sometimes when I'm in a rush her usual beautiful goldenrod diminishes ever-so-slightly not enough for her to notice a real change in her mood but probably something subconscious. I'll definitely remember next time.

Of course, I don't actually take credit for all of that. But once he did start to interact with me more it became a lot easier to read him! He's got a kind of blue aura I'd probably describe as royal, no pun intended though! He seems kind of fatherly - although I've never really had a father figure to look up to so I don't know if I'm really the best judge of that. But he's always making sure to be polite and help me out where he can in the smallest ways, it's very nice of him really.

His emotion is black, but it's not all bad. I mean, yes it is a negative colour, but it isn't the presence of something awful either! It is more like, the lack of reinforcement in many things. At least, that's how I've come to understand it. Up until the day that she left me on the side of the road, Rebecca was a black - and she was really nice sometimes! So I don't worry about Colin hurting someone, rather I worry about him getting used to where he is now. I don't think that'll be happy or comfortable for him at all.

Well, let's see. My name is Aoife which is from the Gaelic Aoibh which means beauty, but I never really liked my name. It was really hard to teach kids how to sound out words because it isn't a sound out word at all! Which, that was hard in general, um, teaching kids. Because usually they'd ask normal kid stuff like where they come from, and I knew where they came from! So they were very happy and that of course made me feel great, but I was never satisfied with that kind of thing. I know I wasn't born, at least - I don't think I was. I don't really radiate a colour until I'm with someone else, then I can usually see my reflection is kind of a pale pink. It's nice I guess.
I guess my purpose doesn't really apply to me, so I tend not to worry about my own happiness too much. It makes me wonder though, if this was an intelligent design... Why design it like that? It's just kind of... Well a little sad.

It's sad to me, because this is a man who has really practiced looking happy, probably in the mirror. I don't know why he felt the need to do that, but I can only imagine. I've seen him with wet eyes at the Fox and I've seen him really bond recently with Laurel, but I don't know if that's enough. His yellow that he takes on, it isn't a genuine one it's warmth is all off. But, once I saw him listening to the radio and he was absolutely beaming, it was almost hard to look at him - but in the BEST way. I wonder why a radio makes him that happy, though?

I’m not surprised, even if Kei is a bit quiet at times she is absolutely wonderful and her voice matches that wonderfully! It’s this beautifully vivid green that absolutely warms your heart to see. It’s kind of like the lushest forest or an emerald even. Kei is someone I haven’t got the chance to talk to very much, but someone I love to watch speak. Her mannerisms and colours all intermingle so well. That being said, I feel like there’s something there that I’m not seeing? Maybe she’s remained optimistic despite something? These kind of intricacies are always so hard to pick out. .

All of these people in Edgetoun with their reds, but not many are as dark as Luka’s. It’s something kind of unique to him actually. I don’t really know what to make of him, honestly. He doesn’t seem too rude and the fact that he owns Cael’s favourite club is… I mean that probably counts for something? I refuse to see solely the negatives surrounding people but I honestly don’t know what to make of him.

Her voice comes through clearly on the radio and I can see it clearly even over the radio. It helps to fill Edgetoun with this beautiful twilight pastel orange. It’s a similar orange that comes out of Officer Monyethebeng’s headphones, which I think is very cute! Who knew cops got schoolyard crushes? Louise herself comes across as really optimistic, but I’m not sure what else I can grab from her radio show. It’s hard to tell but I think she might be easily embarrassed… At least when Officer Monyethebeng calls!

I don’t know much about Loki at all, really. But I get the idea that he is generally a man that is misunderstood. Like so many people in Edgetoun his red shimmers in the sunlight beautifully, and that connection to the people of Edgetoun makes me think that he wants to mean something to them. I- I don’t really know if that’s right or not. I don’t know if any of the colours I see really mean something. But I have to assume they do if I’m going to be able to fulfill my purpose.

I hope the girl is doing okay. I don’t really know of her friends or who she hangs out with too often, nor do I know what she does for fun. But I do know a lot of the bad in her life. The green that she emanates isn’t really happy or energetic. I think it was at one point, but now it kind of seems like a reminder that times have been better and they’re not anymore. That’s what it feels like to me anyway. I hope someone out there is doing something for her.

Eve is one of those people everybody kind of knows. Maybe it’s because she works at the Slye Fox and a lot of people go there every once in a while. Or maybe it’s because she’s one of the few French people who embraces every stereotype in town.

Her colour is kind of like mine, but it’s infinitely better! It is so pale that it perfectly meshes with her entire being and it feels like it is exactly what it should be! It’s really incredible actually because almost everyone else I’ve met their colour is really striking, or it tells me something about them. But that’s not the case for her, instead it’s kind of like she’s exactly where she needs to be and doing exactly what she should be. If she was an angel then she’d be fulfilling her purpose there isn’t a doubt in my mind!

I hope that he can find something in his life that will lead him to happiness, but I don’t know that anyone else will be able to do that for him. Maybe I’m assuming too much, but I definitely thinks he needs more than one thing for him to find satisfaction.

It’s something that he probably underestimates about himself, a lot of people don’t realize the kind of effect they have on other people.

She scares me, plain and simple. But in a weird way I think I also want to be her. She has the brightest red out of anyone I’ve met in Edgetoun and it is hard to even look at. At times I wonder how Caspian and Calypso deal with getting in trouble from Ms. English, but then – I think they’re her weak spot in a way. Not that I’d ever repeat any of that out loud. As far as I’m concerned I don’t think I’ll ever have to cross paths with someone like that.

They’re almost always kind and value people in a way that I think helps others. I know that I’d rather see Officer Monyethebeng at his small booth in the Fox than on the street or rattling around his apartment alone.

We actually auditioned to be scene partners in a school play, and the people who were auditioning us weren't very happy - it was really distracting me. But then Cael came out of nowhere like a break in the clouds, and said to me: "You're beautiful, you've soo got this. I believe in you... even though I just met you. Break a leg!" We walked home together that night and held hands as we waited for the roles to be called out. Ever since we've had little moments to look forward to like picking up my morning coffee from Cael, us walking home together, hanging out in my room. I love our little moments, and ever since I first met him he's resonated a brilliant blue. It isn't really a sad blue, more like the blue of a beautiful night sky reflected in the ocean. It just makes you feel so relaxed! Except for April showers and rainy days, but the sun always comes out eventually!

I don’t know her too well, but anyone with a baby blue that pure must have some kind of wonderful traits just waiting to be discovered! I should invite her to coffee if I ever get thee chance.

When I first met Callie she would’ve been 13 or 14 I think! Well at first, she was kind of like Laurel, it hurt to speak to her and I kind of avoided doing so – although not too much. She has always been this beautiful girl, but her aura was this heavy kind of grey, it hung over her so much so that I couldn’t help but feel bad. But it slowly started to get a tinge of blue to it, kind of like a very light blue flame, I figured she was probably gaining confidence as she grew up and that was a fantastic sign.
But in our senior year when she was seventeen years old that all changed, her slow growth was suddenly finished and her colour wasn’t a grey that hung over her, it was this bluish grey that mixed and mingled with her twin brother. It was somehow exactly the opposite and yet shared elements all the same. It was sturdy, and confident in places where it had been rigid and stagnant. It was incredible and it has only gotten harder to look away as we’ve grown.
I swear that girl has a beautiful, mesmerizing fire in her eyes and it threatens to burn me alive if I stare too long.

Caspian’s red is much more similar to her mother’s than Callie’s bluish grey. But unlike Ms. English his is something of a beauty. It is kind of like a flame, but not one that repels, one that invites. I think there’s more to it but it is so hard to tell sometimes with people. I can definitely tell he’s been through a lot – or at least he is scared of going through something with the way he acts around his sister. But there is also this kindness that he can’t suppress that I believe is something completely incredible to be allowed to witness.
Even with everything behind that reddish warm aura of his, all the pain, mystery, and everything else – there’s a real warmth that wants to let people in. He was studying with me for a Bio midterm last year in the Daily Grind and I saw the way that Cael was looking at him so I know he could walk into a room and draw the gaze of any interested – but he really seems like a young man who values family. I love that in a person. I’m hoping this year we can become closer friends!

She almost always is from what I can tell! But every once in a while she gets a kind of anger in her eyes and her aura that I don’t really want to go near. It is something really different from her usual polite and friendly self. But I don’t know her well enough to know the source behind something like that and I shouldn’t presume. Cael said it is unbecoming of me, but then he laughed and told me it didn’t matter that much so I’m kinda lost. Either way she’s also in a medical profession so maybe we could find something in common there!
