The title is slightly confusing so I'll explain. I'm genderfluid, and sometimes I feel a shift in gender but I don't know what, so I think about myself and suddenly I get a 'vibe' from this one flag that I know. It's more that the colours of the flag connect with me for no apparent reason. I really can't describe it since it's not appearance based (but appearance can influence it), but idk if that's just normal genderfluidity (I also get vibes for pronouns - I can't really explain it tho T-T)

Also, for some words (not all), I also get a vibe from them, which is how I remember things from chemistry for example. Like chlorine gives off green vibes (and it is a green gas), but fluorine (yellow gas) also gives off green so sometimes I get confused between them. Bromine is a strong brown (it's actually a red-brown liquid), and iodine gives purple (cos it's a purple vapour) and in some cases orange (iodine solution). This is the same in biology as well since biuret solution gives off like a really nice pale blue/lilac vibe (this is the colour of the solution/results), benedict's solution gives off a strong dark blue (the colour is just blue, not dark blue), iodine solution gives off orange (it's actually orange-brown), and lipids/ethanol give off like a cream/white vibe (it forms a white precipitate when lipids are present). I have no idea if they're related because I've learnt them, but it's weird because they give off a vibe, rather than me remembering them (cos bromine has always been brown, even before I knew it was a red-brown liquid). But like others also give off colours (idk why it's only elements), since oxygen is white/colourless and carbon is yellow-orange. I really don't know if this is synaethesia or I'm just pretending, lol. Pls help :_]

Edit: I just realised that this can happen with other words (e.g. aesthetic is a gentle red, and inspector is a pale royal blueish colour - why I associate 'An Inspector Calls' with blue, lol)
