kalira is such a super sweetheart! I gave her this gift that I commissioned from  vallhund, of her and her boyfriend,  kaltag sharing a shake in front of a cafe. It was a Valentine's Day gift to one of the sweetest, coolest girls I know, and was meant to be a surprise. Which is was. IN SPADES. I don't know what state it found her in, but it blew her away and made her day, all at once, and I suspect she's been giddy as a schoolgirl (whatever that means - the schoolgirls I know are rarely giddy!) ever since. Which explains why she made this for me today! Now, this totally isn't the reason I give gifts to people. I don't expect something in return. I'm more a fan of paying-it-forward (and if you feel the same, you should read this). And if she had asked me who to put in the pic, I probably would have told her, "Pay it forward." But she snuck up on me, and tackled me with this gift, not giving me the chance to refuse it. Clever girl, that Kalira! ;)

So of course, I IT! :smile:

Now, Rooth doesn't have a girlfriend, perse. And neither do I. So kalira couldn't exactly draw me with my girlfriend in returning the favor with symmetry. But she did the next best thing -- she drew Rooth with one of my girls whom he's been spending a fair amount of time with lately, and who is prone to random acts of affection. More so than Aram, that's for sure. ;) GREAT CHOICE! And a tough one, since Cinn doesn't have a ref sheet (yet). @_@

And that's exactly how Rooth'ragon would respond. Derpy, embarrassed, and little hints of popping up -- which he most assuredly would be batting away with a claw in denial. 'cause denial is a very long river, flowing with unrequited love. And I have no idea what that means, either, but it sounded cool for a second. ;)

Hey, Kalira? ... Thank you. =D
