All stories will be based around the prompt: "The main character has been completely color blind for their entire life, seeing only grayscale, until they come across a stranger who appears in color."
Stories can be any length so long as they meet the prompt above, and, as always, stories must be your original work. Stories with hate speech, NSFW content, or excessive profanity will be disqualified from the contest.
The submission period will last from now until September 3rd, followed by a week of public voting for 1st and 2nd place. Submissions can be made by posting a shareable link to the story on this thread or submitting a link/dispatch to Taco-Island-Charities.

I'm pleasantly surprised to have won this, but a little disappointed too. All I did was dash of a quick anecdote. I only won because mine was the only entry, I assume. I would have liked to see others.
