This comment led to several replies in the thread, one of which was a crude sketch of the scene (shown below) that became the source of redraws in the future.

Spread
Over the following years, the sketch of the scene inspired numerous redraws featuring characters from various pieces of media, such as Pearl from Steven Universe (shown below, left), Rainbow Dash [2] (shown below, center) and Gardevoir [3] (shown below, right).
