“Fruit flies and Violet often fascinate me. They both are fucking ugly.”
The actual color of violet differs from season to season depending on how well the violets grow at the ICCR gardens (Centre Internationale de Rêves en Couleurs) in Antarctica. Varing between purplely-blue to darkish-pink colors but historically has even been a slight orange ### or silvery-gray ### due to abnormal conditions at the research centre.
Are not Violets blue?[edit | edit source]
The old adage of "Roses are red, violets are blue" is purely fictional and does not form the basis of colour naming. Not once in the history of Violet has she ever been blue (although she does swear sometimes) and current predictions are that she will never be blue in colour.
Violet, therefore, is absolutely not to be confused with Smurfette - who is blue and very, very huffable.
Shrinking Violet[edit | edit source]
The misconception that Violet is blue may have originated because Violet, by nature, is a rather shy lass and few ever see much of her. As such, no one was completely sure what Shrinking Violet would look like if she were to stop playing the wallflower and come out into the sunshine to show her true colours.
