Can you tell us about colour meanings in Lucis? I want to know how they compare to those from Galahd.
This list won't be as comprehensive as the Galahd one, mostly because I haven't thought that hard about Lucian colour meanings (yet).
Black is the royal colour. By that I mean the pure base black. Before it used to symbolise dreams and/or death, but that association was slowly lost over time. Pure black is only worn by the royals or those in their direct service. Nobles tend to wear very dark colours to get as close to that black as they can without being impolite.
White is the colour of mourning. Lucis Caelums only wear white at funerals and during the traditional mourning period. Even in modern times pure white is mostly only worn at funerals by the normal populus as well.
Wedding gowns are red. The red symbolises life and love. Historically this goes back to Solheim and Ifrit, but that knowledge has been lost and the meaning for red has been reduced to mostly those two meanings. It's also considered to be a feminine colour.
Blue is associated with religion, belief and warriors because of Bahamut and the Crystal. The Crystal Knights (the knights traditionally protecting the Crystal) wear blue armour, as do the Paladins of the Crystal. While the warriors tend to wear darker shades, the priests and other religious people tend to wear lighter shades.
People with brown eyes are considered stubborn and steadfast and loyal. This mostly goes back to Titan and how he caught the meteor. This isn't necessarily a popular opinion anymore, but it survives in childrens' rhymes.
And that's all the colour meanings I have for Lucis. Sorry it's not very comprehensive. ^.^;

It looks like, to me at least, Hitoya is more relaxed. Like he's gotten to a point of happiness in his life that he can be a bit more at ease and help support his teammates even more
i feel that more open vibe from him as well!!! and while i do think he’s still wearing his black and white theme, i’m a little surprised it’s not obvious from the art we got??? if heaven and hell was his way of carrying his brother with him, hitoya’s probably really gotten some good mental healing ;w;

this memory just hit me like a shitton of bricks ok listen so like
i had my first ever relationship when i was 11. we were both 11 and she was one of my closest friends, and it was an online relationship. she confessed to me via deviantart note yadda yadda that’s the context.
but early on, i kind of caught on that i didn’t feel the same way she felt for me. and i felt very, very guilty about it. that relationship ended, and a few months later i got another girlfriend who confessed feelings to me. and it became a little bit of a pattern where these girls i was friends with would confess feelings for me, i assume that we’re such close friends that this MUST be love, and then very quickly realize that what we are feeling are two very different things.
and all the while i was doing what any sad 11-13 year old furry on deviantart did at the time: make vent art saying that i’m incapable of love and that i’m scared i’ll never fall in love and that i’m a loveless husk of a person.
i just think it’s kind of funny that, looking back on it, from an early age, from relationship #1, i sort’ve knew that i didn’t feel romantic feelings, and that i never had before, and that i probably never will. (and i was right).
