### Other

Colors with some associations and patterns, but do not have textbox colors:

* Teal
	+ There is a teal tool that can be captured outside of the house with a bucket to disassemble pieces from the objects outside Care's bedroom.
	+ One of the more prominent piece types, shaped like a party hat, is teal. This teal party hat piece appears on the piece counter, in a loading screen to the party room, and as an object that can be disassembled in the third floor of the school with the green tool.
	+ The "G" in "CAUGHT" when catching a pet is teal.

* Pink
	+ Petscop's logo, many surface game loading screens, and the backgrounds of the primary pause menu are pink.
	+ There is a pink tool that sometimes takes control over the red tool, which appears to be controlled by the in-game Tiara. It has pink text and a pink Ask box.
	+ The Draw Mode's pencil is and draws in pink.
	+ The "Mike egg" seen in the "mike2" recording has pink as a secondary color.

A black paint bucket appears in the house at one point; this is used to paint over the walls in the master bedroom. When the teal tool falls into the paint bucket, it is covered in black paint.
	+ Care's room in the Child Library is primarily shown with black and gray colors. It also has a black paint roller, similar to the one used to paint over the walls in the house later.

## Notes

* The text colors of black & white are excluded from relevance since the game uses them as the default text colors.
* The pale pink on the graves of Michael Hammond and Lina Leskowitz are highly indicative to be unrelated to the other instances of pink.
* The name being shown in red in the counselor textbox is not confirmed to be specific to that "Paul" was entered or not, so while a possibility exists that red also represents Paul, it is not confirmed.
* Some of the instances of purple are sometimes disputed as being pink, and vice versa; they are organized on this page based on majority consensus to what color the instances are.
