one more thing before I go to bed!

Dean's gun has IVORY grips, okay--IVORY. *NOT* mother-of pearl. *Sam's* Taurus has mother-of-pearl grips. These two things are totally NOT ALIKE. NOT ALIKE!!!!

Sorry, it's just one of those irritating things, like 'tow the line', or 'make due' or describing Dean as 'the blond'.

Huh-wha-? How do you even confuse ivory with mother of pearl? (Though I guess some people might get a pass because they didn't notice/don't remember from the show and unsuspectingly trust that other fic authors do remember or did the research. But if it's one of your peeves it's hard to give it a pass (there is a very strong urge in me to close any story that describes Clark's eyes as hazel, no matter how good it is otherwise).

Clark's eyes are definitely green. They always struck me as a pretty clear green.

And mother-of-pearl is just so different than ivory that yes, calling the grips that is just sheer laziness.
