Nah, cuz I'd end up getting some ugly shade of brown (they're all ugly, IMO) since I'm wood. Blech.

Apparently, I'm a fire rooster. I have to admit, it suits me. But I'd rather be a dragon.
May the bridges I burn light my way.

Oh! I didn't even think about that, or some of the reddish-toned woods (like mahogany). OK. That's not so bad then. And, now that I think about it a bit more, the wood dragon is actually more appropriate given that the war ships of the Vikings were known as Drakkar ships - or Dragon Ships, and often had a wooden dragon on the front!Tiredretiredlawyer wrote: ↑Mon Apr 24, 2023 9:33 amWhat about the blonde Norse woods?

I've been having a really off day, so the little adjustments in perspective are helping a lot! Thanks!

Burnt sienna is my favorite brown. Until this minute I didn’t know it’s the result of mixing orange and purple.
