### A Final Note
The best messages come from the heart. Use these ideas as a starting point, but don't be afraid to add your own personal touch. Mention a specific show you both adore, quote a favorite character, or reference a time you stayed up way too late to find out what happens next. The more personal the reference, the more your message will feel like a special feature, made just for them.
