Optional notes

I'm interpreting Edward as Black, mostly because of this first mention of him - where I am assuming that the sunglasses in low light would be dark. This might be stretching things. 

"Edward was on a stool in the middle of the room, monitoring. He wore sunglasses against the flashes of UV, with his Viz behind the glasses, on one side. In the low light the glasses looked the same color as his face, but shinier."
