Search Results: hair color for a darker skin

I'm 19, she's 20. She's not 100% black... her dad is white, but her mother is a 100% black African-American woman. However, her skin color is still very dark. Only slightly lighter than her mom's. Though she does have straight, very long hair... which is possible in black women, just uncommon.

We were already dating before I moved out of my parent's house. By now, we've been together for about 8 months.

8 months may not seem like a lot, but we've been together almost every day, several hours a day, so she's the person I love most in my life right now.

I love her because she's cute, outgoing, confident, kind, intelligent, athletic, sexy, seductive, laughs easily, and a great support system when I'm down.

About a week ago, there was gonna be dinner at my parent's house... I let her know my parents are incredibly racist once again, like I let her know less than a week into our dating. She said she's used to it though, won't take it to heart, and just wants to see what kind of people they are.

So I let her come along...

At first, me, her, and my parents got along just fine. For the first 20 minutes or so. But then they began making comments.

"She's just your friend right? I mean you couldn't possibly be dating a (n-word)."

"She looks more attractive than most (n-word), but her skin is too dark for her to be a real lady."

"You wouldn't do this to us. If I had (n-word) children, I'd commit suicide."

And I could notice my girlfriend getting increasingly more and more mad, though she just kept quiet.

But then, I snapped, "STOP THIS! SHE'S MY GIRLFRIEND, WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT! AND IF YOU'RE NOT GONNA LOVE HER LIKE A DAUGHTER, I DON'T WANT ANYTHING TO DO WITH YOU BOTH ANYMORE!"

And my parents just sort of stopped talking, and my girlfriend smiled.

I don't regret this, and neither does my girlfriend, but do you think I maybe was too hard on them/went too far?

So my story is basically a shounen anime type story. Humans are given special powers by spiritual aliens named Kuducho, and then become Hinajins, which are basically superhumans, who can't be damaged my manmade weapons. The price for these powers is half their life, which is then added onto the Kuducho's life.

That's the main idea, but my main focus right now is developing how I want the characters to be like. I'll develop the overarching plot, and fix possible plot holes later on. So without further ado...

Recon: Main character of this story. Pale skin, medium length brown hair, 5'11, 18 years old. He's a pretty socially awkward guy, and isn't really popular anywhere he goes, but he really cares for everyone around him, even if they don't give a shit about him. He believes there is good in everyone, and believes everyone can be reasoned with. He has green electric powers, since its his favorite color. His powers are more on the defensive side, creating a spiky shield of electricity around himself and the such.

Luna: The deuteragonist of this story. Light brown skin, dark brown hair that's butt length, 5'7, 19 years old. She's Recon's girlfriend, and they fall in love pretty quickly, as I want this to be a more action focused story, and not a "getting the girl" type of story. Recon doesn't need to "get" her because they're already together, and already love each other. Unlike Recon, she's very extroverted, cheerful, and optimistic. She's very friendly and tries to be friends with everyone. However, she realizes when people can't be reasoned with, or are just bad people. So she's smarter than Recon that way. Her powers are more about speed, hitting her opponent before they can see her. She has water powers, and can summon powerful water based attacks with the humidity in the air.

Willow: Tritagonist. Has the power to summon blue flames, and control air. He's very aggressive, and Recon's biggest rival. He's very brutal towards his enemies. He's about attack.
