Color Submissions

I was told to post 'em here, so have some colors I made.


Chrome, hue: metallic, multicolor, theme: music, songs by VNV Nation

1. When will the banners and the victory parades celebrate the day a better world was won?
2. Light the brightest fire from the highest mountain so the whole world knows that your spirit can't be broken
3. How many years since you found yourself staring at an endless sky?
4. In your dream you see me clear, I have no restraint, no fear
5. I want to be where I don’t need to hide myself and remain there 'til the end of time
6. A stranger here reborn it seems, awaking wonders deep in me
7. To the Gods whose names we've lost and the names who gave in vain
8. But you have always known that this is not all there is / To your questions there'll be answers
9. Unto the corners of the Earth, defiant to the last breath, until there's none left standing
10. Each living thing breathes life / Only sentiment remains



Defiant Duranium, hue: metallic, gray, theme: quotes from Star Trek: Deep Space 9

1. "My dear doctor, they're all true." "Even the lies?" "_Especially_ the lies."
2. You know the worst thing about this root beer? It's insidious. The more you drink it, the more you come to like it.
3. To think, after all this time, all our lunches together, you still don't trust me. There's hope for you yet.
4. In my expert medical opinion, I'd say... it's sick.
5. The Provisional Government is going to fall, and when governments fall people like me are the first ones shot.
6. The truth is usually just an excuse for a lack of imagination.
7. I'm sorry if I made you feel... unwelcome. It's just my way.
8. You've got a good start on a novel here. The dialog is sharp, the story is interesting, the characters are real... the spelling is terrible.
9. Worried? I'm scared to death! But I'll be damned if I let them change the way I live my life.
10. We gotta get out of here! Well you, you can just turn into a couch, but I gotta get outta here!
11. Look kid, I don't know what's going to happen to you out there. All I can tell you is that you've got to play the cards life deals you. Sometimes you win, sometimes you love, but at least you're in the game.
12. It is not my life to give up, Captain- and it never was.
13. "Picard would never have hit me..." "I'm not Picard."
14. "They broke seven of your transverse ribs and fractured your clavicle." "Ah, but I got off several cutting remarks which, no doubt, did serious damage to their egos."
15. You have to realise, there's some things in life you can't control. And one of them is me.
16. What you were trying to do was make yourself feel important. Making me feel dumb made you feel smart. But I'm not dumb, and you're not half as smart as you think you are.
17. "She is cute." "She's also about three hundred years too old for you."
18. And that's when Morn hit you with a barstool and ran out onto the promenade screaming "we're all doomed!"
19. "I suppose you want the office." "I thought I'd say hello first, and then take the office. But we can do this in any order you'd like."
20. So I lied, I cheated, I bribed men to cover the crimes of other men. I am an accessory to murder. But most damning thing of all, I think I can live with it.




Tiger's Eye, hue: brown and/or orange, theme: seasonal

1. Colorful leaves
2. A long cold sunset
3. Brisk night wind
4. Apple, pumpkin, cinnamon, yams
5. First frost
6. Chills down your spine
7. A light jacket
8. Eerie empty spaces
9. Shadows on the wall
10. Orange and black
11. Red and yellow
12. Turn the heat up
13. School bells and shouting children
14. Colorful scarves
15. Time to go home

I like all three, but I have a few minor nitpicks
- I wouldn't count Chrome as multicolor
- I like Tiger's Eye. We do have an autumn themed one (Harvest Gold - https://rainbowlists.dreamwidth.org/13391.html), but we can certainly have overlap (I'm pretty sure we have some lists with duplicate prompts even), and I like your prompts a lot.

I love the seasonal colors and if you liked this one I was gonna make similar ones for the other three seasons as well- I deliberately made it 15 prompts so that you can bichrome them!

Ooo, I like that idea!

I'm a big fan of Defiant Duranium (I'm also a big fan of DS9 so I'm extremely biased...)

We have lists from shows that aren't as good (imo).

I haven't seen the others, but I like these quotes a lot. There's a good mix, and a lot there that a writer could sink their teeth into. :)

Nice! Tiger's Eye appeals particularly.

I saw Chrome and immediately did a saturation. I've been a fan of VNV Nation longer than I care to admit. XD Thanks for creating it.

(I may have to bother you someday for another set of ten VNV Nation lyric prompts so I can do a paint-by-numbers if that's ok)
