[ Laura is not really sure what to call it all, but she likes being able to do things that she wants. She likes being her own person, as Matt has called it. Finding out all of the things that she likes. Even what she does not like. ]
Si! [ She kicks her feet a little happily, and spreads her new markers out to take a moment organizing them a little. She likes the gradient they make. ]
[Stepping through life and looking on mundane experiences with brand new perspective has also brought new light in unexpected ways. Laura is an incredible person with a tremendous appetite for answers and experiences. How can Matt not love her?]
The whole rainbow.
[An amused laugh bubbles up.]
Do you want to know a little trick to remembering the colors in order they appear? I haven't seen them in some time but it helps.
[They can find rainbows with help. Karen or Foggy would be the most gentle and willing of participants.
Still crouched close to be able to talk to her, he holds up one whole hand and two fingers from the other hand. Seven fingers total.]
So there are seven colors in the rainbow. Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.
[Each finger wiggles as he goes.]
Think of the first letter of each color. R for red, O for orange, Y for yellow, G for green, B for blue, I for indigo and V for violet. Together it spells out Roy G Biv. So you think, if the rainbow had a name it'd be Roy G Biv.
[He hopes to God he explained this right. Smiling still he clears his throat.]
It'd tell you in Spanish but it is only for English. I'm sorry.

I've seen this in shows. Not outside.
[ Not yet. She smiles when Matt laughs. It's a good sound. He didn't do it so much when they first met. He does it much more now. She likes that. ]
Yes, I would like to know a trick.
