shadowhivePrompt 7: Violet
Violet is a cheerful color that is associated with a variety of things including: originality, self-esteem, insight, poetry, discernment, understanding, creativity, music, perception, inhibition, and health.
Creativity doesn't wait for that perfect moment. It fashions its own perfect moments out of ordinary ones. — Bruce Garrabrandt
Insight, understanding, and creativity are some wonderful qualities to concentrate on for our final 2020 prompt. Here we ask you: what things are you able to offer others to bring a little sunshine into their lives?

So we’re already at the last prompt, it seems to have gone quick but then again time has no meaning this year.
Purple is perhaps my favourite colour and yet trying to think of fandom things where it’s the focus feels tricky. The main thing that comes to mind is Welcome To Night Vale, where the main iconography is purple. But other than that...
I’m sure there’s something obvious that will come to mind later though.
So I’ll switch to the other parts of the prompt instead.
My creative outlet is usually writing but this year... it’s really sapped my creativity. When I do write it’s mostly band fic or, from last year, The Umbrella Academy. I usually write fairly short things, I don’t have the focus to write the epics that some do and I think my mind would wander if I tried.
As a kid I wrote poetry but I’ve not for years. I like arting sometimes but I have no skill for it so I mostly do simple things.
As for insight... I’m not sure I have insight in anything, not really.
For the last question... I dunno. I try and be kind. I mostly just post nonsense ( or pics of my pets or stuff from my games).

It's just so easy to be negative, especially this year. I think the anonymity of the internet helps people forget that there are humans on the other end, who are also struggling and maybe not in the best place to receive even more negativity (especially for something fannish or otherwise Not That Important). Anyway, I think I lost my train of thought a bit here with this comment, but what I'm trying to say is that I have greatly appreciated the folks who took part and were kind. ♥ It certainly helped me at least.
