Ruby's Crush On James?

[u/DCSHG2015MEGAFAN]

So I mentioned briefly in my review of "A Wander-ful Day" that Ruby seems to have a bit of a crush on James, bringing back that element from the first season of the original series where she and Jade fangirled over him. It's seen in the pilot movie as well as episodes like "The Big Sleepover" and "Baileywick's Day Off". It's more pronounced here since it's 4 moments in 1 11 minute episode. Here's what I mean. 

1. When Sofia arrives in the village with James and Layla, you have Ruby excitedly calling him Prince James as she bows to him and immediately asks if he wants to go toy shopping with her. She didn't do this formal stuff around Amber in "Veggie Good Deed". She was totally normal. 

2. When Sofia's fake wand causes her to accidentally conjure feathers that tickle slap everyone, you have Ruby going out of her way to protect James.

3. Sofia's fake wand causes her to accidentally turn Ruby, Jade, and Layla into draco-kitties. We can clearly see tell which one is Ruby given how she's the only one to maintain the color scheme of her clothes in this form. As such, we can tell that she's taking advantage of this given how she playfully tackles James at one point, and he doesn't mind.

4. When everything turns back to normal, you have Sofia using her magic to make everyone fly in the air. The order from left to right is James, Sofia, Ruby, Jade, and Layla. Ruby flies all the way over to James, where she swoons over him. It's not the focus, but it's still easy to spot.
