Hi Jenna!! It’s Ruby 🥰 got a little surprise for you as thanks for all the kind gifts you’ve gotten everyone 💗💖💕
I’m so sorry it took me THIS long to get this finished😭 when I say art block & motivation drain hit me hard, I mean it STEAMROLLED ME😂 but anyway; I wanted to finally give you a little something in return for the many wonderful drawings you’ve given everyone💕 you’re really own of the most generous people I know in this fandom, and I hope you know how much we all love and appreciate you💗🫂💕
First of all, absolutely DO NOT apologize for how long this took because ARE YOU KIDDING ME??? You could have sent this to me five years from now and I still would've been sitting here screaming over it 😭
I genuinely don't think you understand how much this means to me. The fact that you took the time to draw not just one ship, but ALL FOUR of them, and somehow captured every dynamic so perfectly is insane 😭💕
I've been staring at this for ages because every time I look at it I notice another little detail. The expressions, the poses, the little notes, the interactions, the outfits, the couple cosplay—everything feels so thoughtfully put together and so them.
Renn looks like she's questioning every life choice that led her to this moment while Jocie is having the time of her life 😭💜
Cordelia and Ace are absolutely adorable and the way you drew them together is making me melt 😭🌊💕
Seojun and Mund with the cat is so unbelievably them that I actually laughed when I saw it 😭
AND DAN AND BEE??? HELLO??? The fact that you somehow managed to make him look both completely smitten and completely ridiculous at the same time is sending me 😭
But honestly, what gets me the most isn't even just how beautiful the art is—it's how much thought and care you put into it. You remembered so many little things about the characters and their relationships and it genuinely feels like a love letter to both our quartets. That means so much to me because I know how much energy, time, and thought goes into making something like this.
And the sweetest part is that you made this while dealing with art block and motivation struggles. The fact that you still wanted to make something for me despite that honestly makes me want to cry 😭💜
Thank you. Seriously. Thank you for being so kind, so thoughtful, and so supportive. Every interaction I've had with you has been lovely, and you've always been such a positive presence in this community. I'm genuinely so lucky to have met you and to have had the chance to share our silly little characters together 😭💕
I know you made this as a thank-you gift, but honestly I feel like I'M the one who should be thanking YOU. Not just for this drawing, but for all the joy, creativity, and kindness you've brought into the fandom.
I absolutely adore this and I'm going to treasure it forever. Thank you so much, Ruby. 💜😭💕
