[That's like, the literal basics of light. Surely that's enough for them to follow along! Surely.]
Aight, so. You know how we see colors 'n shit? Light bouncin' off the junk around us, comin' back up to the receptors in ya eyes, all for the brain to interpret. Well. Where it go if it misses? If it don't get picked up by nothin'? Scientifically, nowhere. Not really.
But where science ends is where magic begins. All that light starts to stick around in the air and clump up into what we call "loose magic". The kinda magic it is depends on the color of light. So it's important for us Reapers to find plenty of sources of the color we match with - as an example, you would make a decent source of orange magic thanks to that hair o' yours and the matchin' eyes. We just absorb that loose stuff automatically if we match colors with it. Once we got enough of it, we can let it back out in just 'bout any form we want, 'long as it corresponds with the color.
