I watched a sparrow this morning, hunting amidst the daisies.
- Sparrows are brown, black, and white. So is Roux. So this is a color reference.
- When I think daisies, I think white flowers. Snow is white, the Basin is generally referred to as being covered in snow. This is a reference to the Basin.
Exactly what I was thinking here. I actually guessed that there would be a brown someone in a group of white someone's, but I didnt' think of snow! Clever! Pass. Also this is two clues, two passes - one for herd ref and one for color.
I watched a rat scurry boldly through the brambles last night.
- Rats are extremely near-sighted and see most things as huge colored shapes moving around. Roux's blindsight is referred to during the day as only being able to sense motion. Both Roux and rats would be more cautious during the day, and more confident at night, due to their sight issues. This is a reference to Roux's sight.
I like the curry boldly in the night part, but I don't immediately associate rats as being very near-sighted? I thought of a "rat" like a "snitch" or a "spy". When I looked up "rat" on wikipedia too there was nothing mentioned about how well they see. So while I really like the part about the blindness being easier at night, I would fail the rat reference, but I pass the boldly scurrying. Also, rats are brown too, which indicated to me that the rat and sparrow were the same creature.
They are different than I.
- Wasn't initially meant as a clue, honestly. But can refer to two different things. Unicorn vs. equine and male vs. female.
"They" is what really trips me up here. Who is they? I like the different than I part though. I neither pass nor fail. I would pass if it "they" was changed to "you" or "him/her/it" indicating one individual.
Perhaps one day you'll understand they're not so different after all.
- Meant as fluff, but can refer to Roux being raised amidst racist unicorns.
I like this one because it did immediately make me think of the Basin, but you already have a herd reference above.
3 clues make a pass from me .
