Larry the Legend Loc: Not hiding in Milton

The answers to these clues all have something in common.

Answer each clue correctly and the connection between them will be obvious.

1. An amber tinted paste used on a hot dog.
2. A purple fruit
3. Besides the number of days, the months of May and August have this in common.
4. A finely feathered and multicolored avian friend.
5. A 7 letter word for a pigment like crimson.
6. A bleached and neutral hue.

Solve half of them and a guess is likely to be correct.

If no correct solution is posted, then I will put you all out of your misery later today.

Larry the Legend asked me to post his PM reply, so here it is:

Oh, you're good. I see I shall have to 'up my game' with you around. Of course, you're right. They're all 'Clue' characters. The connection between May and August is indeed 'Green'. That is the color of the birthstones of May and August.

I had prepared a post to finish it in case nobody figured it out, you seem to have preempted me though, so if you would, post this for me? I actually added the explanation for May and August just now...

Solution:

The answers are:

1. Mustard
2. Plum
3. Green (The color of the birthstones of May and August).
4. Peacock
5. Scarlet
6. White

All these words are the last names of the characters in the game of Clue.
