Was I the only one who thought Princess Elise's eyes were gray at first? I thought it was quite poetic, as I had thought that it was indicative of her role as seal on Iblis. I even described them as "ashen" in one of my fanfic drafts to lean into that.

Mayyyybe in the cheaper cutscenes her eyes were blue? But we all know the budget-eating cutscenes were what really counted for character design.  

I remembered seeing her eyes described as blue in one fanfic and not thinking much of it. That maybe the author just thought blue eyes would make her prettier. Then reading another where Sonic specifically fixates on her eyes being blue, to the point that the author had blue eyes TAGGED. Then, when I actually started paying attention, I kept seeing these Emerald-blue eyes in fanart, over and over again...

Now that I look more closely at certain screencaps, her eyes do look kind of blue (Depending on the lighting, of course. Depending on the lighting)...

While throwing ideas around for my new flame cleric, the intended title for its new channel divinity reminded me of something.

I don't know whether I should be mildly concerned that Youtube has managed to spy on my fannish activity even with my adblockers, or just be excited that THIS APPEARED in my feed!
