The Crucible - Act 2
After taking the true colors test I found out that may true color is blue. I really believe that this test is correct because the description explains me well. Blue means very caring and just wanting everyone to be happy. This works for me because I'm all about keeping the peace and want to be a psychiatrist when I grow up. I think the characters in the story all have different personalities and would fit in different color groups, too. I can't remember exactly what the definition of each color group is but I know the basics. I believe that Abigail could belong in the blue catagory with me. She really cares for Proctor and just wants to be with him. She wants to hug him and touch him and he pulls away. In a way I don't think she is completely blue, though. Abigail does not think of Elizabeth at all during her love story. Elizabeth and Proctor are married but Elizabeth never comes across in Abigail's mind. Proctor is obviously not a blue either. He is in the middle of a love triangle. He has an affair with Elizabeth and then totally leaves Abigail after he was done with her. He left them both a bit heartbroken he was not completely thinking about everyone's feelings like blues do. Most people only think about how Elizabeth feels because she was the one who got cheated on but nobody really mentioned Abigail's feelings. She is young and in love and the man she loves just ignores her and loves someone else. I could see why she would be so upset and heart broken. I found Elizabeth to be more of a "do what must be done" kind of attitude. If I remember correctly that would be the orange personality. She tells Procter to do what he must do and she will stand by him in his decisions. Such as telling the court certain information. She just wants to please her husband which makes me think she is a blue in some way. She wants him to be happy and wants to please him. When she cooked dinner for him she wanted him to like it and for him to be pleased with her. I think of Parris as a gold ( I think, remember I don't remember the colors perfectly.) Parris had very strict rules and knew what was okay and what wasn't he wanted order and for things to go his way. He didn't want the girls getting into any funny business, he didn't want to visit the people, he wanted his maid to do exactly everything that he told her to do. He was very straight forward and was a typical gold with all those rules he set. Those are pretty much the only colors I can remember (at least I think I remember.) I do know though just about everyone they have mentioned in the story this far have all had different personalities. Everyone so far is sharing the same emotion though and that is concern and wondering what is going around in Salem and what could be coming. Are there really witches? Or is this girl just seeking attention?
