It's your birthday. I want to make you something. [Plus he's been in a huge art rut for months and this feels like a good way to break put of it: creating things for people he cares about.]
[ Her gaze drifts again but she makes her pull herself back. There's really no way to ask "hey, can you draw my probably dead little sister" that isn't awkward and lays on the pressure but it's the first thing that comes into her head. ]
Ruu-chan.
I know there's probably all sorts of footage online, if-- if they were airing the things we remember, too. But I haven't been able to bring myself to look and I don't... have any photos of her.

I just thought it might be nice to have something.

[ Oh Jamie. You unbelievable sweetheart. Yuuri looks caught off guard for just a moment and then she beams at him. ]

Yeah...I can do that for you. Its been a long time since I've even tried drawing people but- [!!!] Would you mind if I drew you first? For practice.

[ She looks a little surprised even by the suggestion but then she smiles, and shakes her head. ]
No, no, of course not! Go ahead. I'd like to see what you come up with.
