If u find the colors familiar is bc i did this with with these other drawings i did some time ago in mind (that was also inspired in another set of drawings that are linked on the other post lol) the turquoise + saturated pink/red combo goes hard

While drawing these I would keep thinking about these quotes from the game Slay the Princess too orz it probably added to the inspiration too

I had in mind that Ren's heart is shaped nicely for presentation but can turn gooey and its bleeding discreetly gets into places it shouldn't. The bleeding shouldn't be perceptible to Eli but it spills at direct contact with them.

The characters' own perception of their feelings for each other also have to do with how their hearts are shaped. The way they bleed is related to their self perception on their own actions.
