[orange, getting angry]
Yeah okay but I bet you can't name three more

[purple, shrugging harder]

[orange, so angry their body is turning into spaghetti]

[purple, stalwart]
A rectangle and a hexagon?

[orange, bent out of shape]
Okay but let's see you name another one

[purple, calm]
A pentagon

[purple, worried]
