#don’t get me wrong tho I LOVE fanart with him having legit red / ginger hair

something I have always found funny is when people debate whether Neil’s hair is ginger/red/etc when his natural color is literally defined as a shade of brown:

“Neil had dyed his hair brown from time to time, but never this shade, never anywhere near this shade.” —The Raven King, Chapter 16

#don’t get me wrong tho I LOVE fanart with him having legit red / ginger hair #but it is very clearly not based strictly on the book #idk how it is in translations bc it could totally be more ambiguous #hell it could outright call his hair red #but strictly from the English versions it is auburn and ‘a shade of brown’ #aftg #neil josten
