Description
Saudade (Brazilian Portuguese: [sawˈdadi]; plural saudades) is a Portuguese word that has no direct translation in English. It describes a deep emotional state of nostalgic longing for an absent something or someone that one loves. Moreover, it often carries a repressed knowledge that the object of longing will never return.
- Bell A.F. (1912) In Portugal

I needed an excuse to pick up drawing again, and what better one than to make a (one-week belated) birthday gift for a friend? I've always been drawing humorous (or at least, I'd like to think so) crossover pieces, and while this is in the same vein, I wanted to add some pathos to it too.

Or as Walt Disney once said: "For every laugh, there should be a tear."

Oh man, I feel so awful doing this to Blu, haha. Happy 21st, Kenzie/ellie-jessie-eve!
