In the 2019 companion book to the series, Jones said that they were attached to the podcast for Rooster Teeth as an audio editor and became friends with Monty Oum, with both talking about video games and anime for hours, and he presented the role of Ruby to them in the process. In the same book, Jones also recalled that Oum said they were socially awkward like Ruby and that they channeled the innocence of the character during their recordings, focusing on the performance rather than the tone.
