Which is exactly part of the problem with him - he's basically only a poc by Word of God. I find it odd that in a 'verse where the author pointedly mentions the color of any non-white person's skin, his skin color was pointedly omitted. That makes him read as white thanks to the way she writes, and honestly, I'm still not sure I buy that she always intended him to be a poc, given that she only brought that up when someone pointed out she doesn't write poc well.
