#Purple also is a toxic and poisonous color sooo

[soupmanspeaks]

the Afton's and the color purple ramble lesgo lesgo Okay, so lets start with the obvious connotations of purple; royalty, luxury, and nobility, I'm pretty sure everyone knows that back in the day, Tyrian purple was really expensive and yap yap yap only the elite could afford it--Well if you think about it, the Afton's basically are a "royalty" of sorts (well, as close as royalty as you can get in hurricane Utah lol) William is the Co-owner and founder of a beloved children's entertainment franchise, he is the king, and Michael is the rowdy kid of the successful business owner, the one whom causes trouble to everyone, the oldest, the heir, the Prince (and he acts especially ""princely"" in the SL post-night cutscenes with everyone waving to him (and seemingly adoring him lol)) Purple can also be a color of mystery, which honestly, I feel matches the Afton's lol, we only know so much about them, only in bits and pieces do we know some base character traits, and that's really it yk Also, I read that it could be a color of vanity and of mourning, things I feel fit William and Michael respectively, with Wil thinking he's untouchable, and a "god" of sorts, and Michael harboring the guilt of what mistakes he has done over the course of the series And speaking of oopsie daisy's, Purple also is notoriously a color of villainy; think of Disney villains like the Evil Queen, Maleficent, Ursula, Claude Frollo, all character's have purple in their color scheme obviously it points out William's misdeeds, but also Michael's own messy past, (also all the villains I listed seem to just have a slight British accent to them lmao? and they are fairly based off of "noble" classes like a queen, or a high judge yk, I guess they're both there to signal to the audience that "yerp, this character is an Afton") also ps I take Michael become really purple at the end of SL as him technically being the last Afton Afton, him basically permanently wearing his family's "royal" colors also pps Purple can also symbolize ambition, which could be expressed in Michael's newfound mission being to stop his father, no matter what happens okay bye
