I’m Respect the Petty, and I love colors. I’m on my own little mission to annoy all of y’all about how colors, lighting, barriers, clothing, and other visuals enhance QLs and add depth to the story.
For those of you who keep asking me for a “Master List” (bleh!) since apparently it takes too much time to scroll through my insane amount of posts because I don't know how to stfu, here it is! Plenty of posts didn't make the cut simply because there is a limit, so I included the ones that delivered the most features from above, and if you search my tags by the series' titles, other posts regarding the show's colors should be able to be found.
The goods are below the cut 👇🏿
A quick overview of what I do and what the colors mean
Key:
Color Coding shows the main colors associated with the characters <- most of you are here for these
Barriers examine the physical barriers that separate characters in a scene and what they represent (emotions, miscommunication, etc.)
The Clothing Tells the Plot looks at a specific clothing item in a scene
Background Noise includes various elements like barriers, clothing telling the plot, lighting showing feelings, and general details for the show
Episode Reviews cover all of the above for each episode plus my unhinged ramblings

Notes:
If a link doesn't work or goes to the wrong post, let me know
If you have an ask or a request, feel free to send me a message, but be warned that I really don't shut the fuck up about colors, so you could get a ten-page report back in response
If you write a post about colors, lighting, barriers, clothing, or other visuals, feel free to tag me
I'll update this post at the end of each month depending on what discoveries I've made during that month (Updated: 4/15)
Now that you know who I am, remember that a world without colors is a world devoid of emotions and feelings, so embrace the magic and follow me down this chaotic path of visual rhetoric.

@colourme-feral tagged me to "pick something, whether it's the main color of a scene or an item in a shot from a ql show or movie that you think of, which corresponds to a color of the rainbow flag: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet." But because I'm me, I had to include the original pink plus the inclusive black, brown, and white with a little spicy twist.

@babyangelsky, we got our man back! He entered the Australia friendly as CAPTAIN, and will be playing in his sixth World Cup before he retires.
Porque detrás de una convocatoria hay mucho más que una lista.
Hay una vida entera de esfuerzo, de aprendizaje y de amor por estos colores.
Hoy miro este momento con una enorme gratitud.
Por todo lo vivido.
Por todo lo que me ha dado el fútbol.
Y por la oportunidad de seguir representando a México después de tantos años.
Si algo me ha enseñado este camino, es que los sueños no se cumplen una sola vez. Hay que luchar por ellos todos los días.
Y hoy, ese mismo niño sigue sintiendo la misma emoción al ponerse esta camiseta.
Con el corazón lleno.
Con orgullo.
Con gratitud.
Por México…Siempre. 🇲🇽⚽
Yeah, yeah, yeah, the baby gays are gonna cry a lot, but what is going on with Phak? Why he is so conveniently standing right in front of the crucifix? Which is right between the boys.
. . . cause he's always in the middle.
Just in between.
Ready to pacify when needed or provide a blanket without being asked.
Because it's his duty to tend to the flock of students, count their heads at night before bed, and repair the building.
He's like a mix between a shepherd and a carpenter.
