Ruby's pajamas are an older-than-shit, pit stained T-shirt and men's boxers with the elastic worn out. She looks tired.

She is extremely happy in her marriage and everything is going amazing. Her life is perfect. Hana's pajamas are a very sensible matching pajama set, but tonight she has a feather boa, a party hat, and goofy party sunglasses from NYE 2008. She looks unhinged, but in a fun way!
