In fiction, a queer character will often be associated with their pride flag colors to emphasize their sexuality or gender identity. These colors can show up in their physical appearance or outfits (which often shows they are proud to be themselves) or in more subtle cues like cinematography, lighting, or a specific ColorWash. For example, the trend of "bisexual lighting", where bi characters are lit with blue, purple, and pink, arose in TheNewTens. This can be a meaningful way to express LGBT+ pride.
