User blog comment:AliceIsKewl/If Sam's fur is black because he has a black heart, why is Jacob's fur reddish brown?/@comment-2157619-20100708152617

it was kind of not a fact, but now i said it, it makes a tiny bit of sense. k, so here i go trying to make sense of the rest of them. pauls fur is dark silver, im not sure about that but it might be that he was second to join the pack so is slightly lighter in colour than sam, or that the dark symbolises his anger or sense of humour. embry has grey fur with black spots, which probably has something to do with his half brother being either sam or quil. quil has chocolate brown fur, which is probably something to do with him being jacobs second cousin and the related colours. leah has grey fur, which might be because of the fact she was in love with sam. it seems that anyone to do with the alpha has similar coloured fur - for example leah was in love with him, so has grey, paul has dark silver because he was sams only companion for some time, embry having the grey and black because his half brother is most probably sam. so yeh - the only thing im really quite sure about though is the links to sam being similar colours, not any of the reasoning, but there are my desperate attempts for justification.
