Weird Question Weekly

Bringing you a weekly dose of the wacky, the weird and the wonderful, straight from the blog team. Got a question for us? Leave it in the comments and we’ll answer it next week.

This week’s question is from Lucy: If you could turn yourself a different colour, what would it be and why?

Anna: I would love to be kelly green, because it wouldn’t clash with the majority of my favorite colors (almost any shade of blue or purple) and, honestly, if I were sapphire colored then I couldn’t own any sapphire clothing or jewellery!

Elizabeth: I’m not sure if I should take this literally or metaphorically. As far as colors go, I think I’m purple- creative, bright, passionate, shy or angry or excited depending on the shade. But I don’t think I’d want to walk around with purple skin all day. Unless everyone is walking around with rainbow colored skin, in which case, bring it! If I had to be the odd one out, I’d choose a bright green so that I could pretend I was Elphaba.

Quinn: I would probably turn myself octarine, the colour of magic in Discworld. Mostly because embodying magic, at least the colour would be so awesome!

Kara: I would turn myself that particular amazing shade of deep red-brown that really fine Earl Grey tea turns when it’s steeped just right. I can’t think of any more beautiful or comforting color in the world for a tea-fancier such as myself, and think of all the other amazing colors you could wear with it.

Emily: I think I would quite like to be a gossamer silver color, or perhaps a translucent warm glow. I love the idea of morphing into things like Mystique from XMen or becoming the very fabric of reality like the invisibility cloak.

So, what color would YOU turn yourself? Tell us in the comments below! Thanks to Lucy for the question this week, and please leave us one of your own for us to answer.
