Season 9 is upon us, and I don’t know about you, but I’m not ready to say goodbye. Good things don’t have to end, though, if you keep them close to your heart, right? At least, that’s what I figure.
 
Here’s a bittersweet doodle I was working on as a warm-up, while watching old episodes to prime myself for our final season. Posting this a few days before the thing airs because otherwise it may get swarmed in the season-premiere rush! Also works wonderfully as a phone background, so try that, too. Shrunk it down for easier viewing, but check the download for high-res!
 
Anyways. I’m full of feelings and don’t know what to do with them, so take a heartfelt hug as we get ready to have a few more adventures with the heroes that taught us to be kind, generous, loyal, honest, and how to laugh when the going gets tough. Friendship really is magic, and don’t you ever forget it. I just can’t believe we’ve come so far.
