Scarlet Purity
It was the color of his brother, for the life's blood that coursed though all living creatures, human and Realian alike. Yet it also was the color that represented sin, unbridled lust or passion, of hellfire, danger and the Devil… But for Gaignun, red also meant innocence. Red was green eyes much like his own, but with a gentler light. It was a sharp contrast against cream colored skin, a sparkle against brown silk, which in turn was dark against his sheets and on his hands.
Red was the color of her innate Ether power. It flushed her skin when she was embarrassed or when she was in the throes of passion. Yet for such a pure soul like hers, how could she wear such a color? For women to wear red declared them as harlots, seductresses…but Shion was no harlot, and certainly no seductress. And she had been in a relationship once, so she should be familiar with the games of men and women. But she wasn't; even now with the relationship between them at such an advanced stage, she still was frightfully innocent. Yet she still wore red, such a mix of signals! Innocence and sin, two things that could never be combined…but they were.
So for Gaignun, red also started to mean innocence.
