Suggestions for new colours - contrasts/pairings lists Part 2

[thisbluespirit]

These lists contain linked words in threes and fours, which I thought could also be handy for triptych (if people want to use them that way). They also work as normal prompts etc.

Specific queries - if anyone has any substitutions for better fandom trio-sets for the tumblr blue prompt set I'm happy to hear them - thanks to Cindybug and Ilthit for dreaming up most of them for me!

The last two 'three' sets, I used colours I could find with the word three in the title, but I'm not sure I'm happy with those entirely or that they might be better used for other sets - if anyone has any more appropriate ideas, I'd be happy to rename them. (The ones that were more contrasts/linked words, I stuck to the mineral themes, so those are okay, although I apologise if the colours are more awkward to do!)

With thanks to everybody in the Discord who helped me come up with things (and wiki's Irreversible Binomial page!)
