Literally just making it any solid color would’ve been better guys.

I’d like to point out that the rainbow has more positive than negative meanings.

Hi fun fact, colors do have meaning and there is a legit thing called color theory. The rainbow does have more positive connotations than negative like the @ mintymaiden said. For example, violet is associated with more money, wisdom, and elegance than with blood and death just like the chart shows you. Also, check out “The Designer’s Dictionary of Color” by Shaune Addams. Have fun learning something

You can theorize to Thrashthrust and back but that doesn’t change my immediate reaction which is that someone is literally dragging corpses around

I like that the presumption here is that “No One On Grumblr Has Heard of Color Theory. Let Me Explain in Depth” rather than simply acknowledging that the VISUAL EFFECTS of this particular color choice, applied in the manner it was, can still amount to “this is a hospital and that looks like blood”
like, color theorydoesn’t exist in a vacuum. If your design of choice for Hemospectrum Paint is asymmetric splatters and splotches against the wall, or in this case, a shellbeast trail on the hallway’s floor, and infographic won’t override the viewers’ instinct

this post is the perfect summation of grumblr’s reading comprehension and critical thought abilities
However, to isolate one thing to talk about, Fozzer has one particular line that’s pretty peculiar.
12? 12. 12 subtypes. This brings up quite the predicament; as there should technically only be 11. We know that at some point there was a limeblood genocide, and that mutants, like Karkat and The Sufferer have shown up, but the MSPA reader hasn’t encountered any of them. As far as the Reader knows, there’s only twelve.
I may be wrong, but I don’t remember limebloods even being mentioned. The Sufferer was, but it would make little sense to include them as a subtype as to the Reader’s knowledge there’s only ever been one troll with that mutation.
So, that brings into question; when does this take place? Is is pre or post limeblood genocide? I wish I could formulate a more cohesive theory, but really the only “evidence” of this being pre-limeblood genocide is the possible lime looking substance on one of the body pillows (which may, in fact, be sopor slime). ((There’s also the issue with this being only loosely cannonical)) I suppose, however, we’ll have to wait for more info, as the absence of limebloods or any mention thereof would hint that this is post-genocide.
So, for now, I believe this may be possibly either:
1. Pre-Limeblood Genocide
2. Some sort of weird omniscience as seen in Boldir’s ending or in one of Marvus’ Bad Endings.
3. Simply an error
4. I’m looking way too deep into this
Anyways, I just thought this was a really interesting line, and I kinda wanted to touch on it.
