We put all this effort into making this new profile pic, so we wanted to share a bit about everyone on it.

1) Melody the Sylveon was one of our main childhood imaginary friends. When we found her again in late 2020 after 18 years of lost contact, we begged her to take over our life. We've looked up to her as the closest thing we have to a "leader" ever since. (she obviously wasn't always a Sylveon, of course!)

2) Amity was our other main childhood imaginary friend. It and Melody have merged and split repeatedly over the years. These days she lives inside a plushie. She's an incredibly steadfast, supportive friend.

3) sup. im dissy. =w=
i like food and sleep and stuff.
i was here on day one and i have since gotten QUIETER AND LESS AROUND and vaporeon has FALLEN TO #3 IN THE OTHERKIN RANKINGS (behind sylveon and latias) and im bitchy about it. gonna keep trying to take up as much space as i can though. weh

4) we couldn't actually tell Fate and Dissy apart on day 1, but she was there, too. her sona is a Gengar-Clefable which rules. she's chilled out a lot over the years.

5) Aurora is one of a bonded pair of fictives from our pkmn fanfic I swear we'll write some day. she can transform into an Umbreon named Rory, but she's in human form here. in May of 2021, her partner Stella had this crazy lucid dream where they both existed, and that broke the dam on our plurality.

6) Mara K is our lovely creative lead and our most professionally accomplished headmate. She's the most centrally responsible for stuff like our work on KFAD2 and Sonic fan music and etc. [oh god I feel like I should say something. I'm still trying to re-learn how to make stuff again! –Mara]

7-8) On to the people that weren't on our old avatar! Sage and Bonnie are the power couple of our syskids. They're strong advocates for our littles and middles. Bonnie is bubbly and vibrant and Sage is soft yet sharp. I'm so happy we're at the point where we aren't afraid to admit they exist.

9) Amy Rose was one of our first explorers of being trans and trying to be a girl on the internet and it went badly so she went into the shame closet but kept mumbling that she was Amy in our sleep for most of our life. we obliviously were like "wow what a weird tic why would we have that" about it, until she hammered a hole through a barrier in our brain to get us to hear her.

10) Takeru was a daydreaming buddy of Amy Rose, and ALSO called out for her at night. Why he's a Digimon fictive and not a Sonic character is a long story.

11) here's a fun story. Takeru and Hikari got caught being plural together on a Digimon IRC chat in like 2002 and were banned for "sockpuppeting"! Amy got banned from an IRC chat for being rude to another Amy kinnie too. that shame stuck to us & caused them to diverge over time through repression :(

(sorry, I can't separate these two's art lol)
12) Nene's name comes from originally being called "Naysayer" because all she would do is scream NO about our plurality. She's a cool bad bitch now though. Her sona's got no relation to the Digimon fictives, but the other Palmon cutely looks up to her :)

13) Chloe is attempting to take responsibility for our crippling cringe response to mixed effect, but she's trying damnit. She's got no real relationship with Nene beyond being basic systemmates, but Nene thought it would be funny to pull her in (and she was right).

14) Rhythm started off with a boatload of neurosis about our disability and species but has since evolved into one of our most joyous friends, with an embrace of its extra-stimmy autism & girlboyness. voted "most notably missing from our previous avatar" by the harmony friends 2025 avatar committee

15) Eri was a critical part of creating the structural foundations of our dissociation during our childhood. Her experience being a birdthing forced to destroy her self makes her relate a lot to E-102 Gamma. She wants to learn how to drive but she's scared shitless.

16) we've made it to the "bonus" friends that weren't planned to be in the avatar but we realized we could fit in the corners outside the circle crop for funsies. This is Serafina, a soothing friend that's Aurora's old bestie and Eri's partner. she's not around a ton but we love her so much <3

17) hot off being our partner's wiki buddy for her TTYD remake playthrough, she got the idea to use Bella as a sona for just a split second, but everyone loved the idea so much that they wouldn't let her live it down. she's talking to another "librarian" type about merging and expanding her role rn

18-19) Patamon (right) and Tailmon are Takeru and Hikari's digimon partners. they conceptualize themselves as being like "alternate universe" versions of Amity and Melody respectively. I love the little detail where Tailmon's ears and tail dangle into the circle cropped version on purpose <3

and thats it! shoutouts to the 50+ documented harmony friends that didnt make it into the avatar and to all the harmony friends we haven't yet met (or have met and haven't realized, lol). thanks for reading and letting us share our plural joy <3<3<3<3
