Description

“Crabs living half-a-mile down in the ocean, beyond the reach of sunlight, have a sort of color vision combining sensitivity to blue and ultraviolet light.”

Tori’s experiments have brought her to a path of what’s useful AND cool. Next up in her personal lab: a Gastroptychus spinifer in a specialized pressure tank, beady eyes reflecting orange, seeing what humans cannot- Tori’s lab knows much farther bounds, however, and her tests with DNA and organic material are successful through the Gifts. In the dark, Tori sees in ultraviolet: pollen, detritus, tracks stand out as if glowing in a rainbow of colors not meant for human eyes.

Yes, Tori does spend free time flicking her lights off and walking around giddily in the dark.
