a brown so dark it’s almost black. they’ve got their dad’s eye color but their mom’s eyes. when they were younger they thought their eyes were kind of boring but now they like them. they’ve always got this softness about them; its one of the big reasons they look so trustworthy and they’re the one part of the mask that they wear that gives them away every time.
