I don't wanna further hijack that poor poll, but the thing about Harrow's schizophrenia is that it's canon. The author has confirmed it, and shared that it's based on her own experience.
It's a pretty obscure bit of canon, so of course there's no shame in not already knowing, but that's why I'm so obnoxiously persistent about letting people know.
Whatever else is up with Harrow, autism or cptsd or any number of likely headcanons, she is also schizophrenic. I feel like that's too important to be handwaved away as a difference of opinion.

No but @korruptbrekker reached out to me and asked if I was interested in doing a collab (go check out their piece here, I implore you), and you know I could not say no to such a wonderful artist asking lil ol me to do something fun like this. We ended up doing a swap @laugaheim and I came up with ages ago that I so sussinctly refer to as a moodboard-sketch-lineart-render swap. Rolls right off the tongue, right? Nah but it's exactly what it says. Make moodboards, swap and sketch from the other's, swap again and line the other's sketch, and then swap once again and finish the piece you sketched.
Very big thanks to Brekker for reaching out! This was so fun, I hope we can do something together again in the future!
Not an evolution line, but how could you expect me to read on the wiki that during Double Dealing Character, the characters' equipment started turning into Funny Little Guys and expect me not to finish the job? I LOVE Funny Little Guys.
Doggers often show up in battle alongside Watchdog, as do the fairy maid yo-kai I'll make later. They might also fuse together to evolve, but I'll also address that later.
anyways i love you people that are both gay and straight, in whatever way that presents. being nonbinary often can mean a complicated relationship to sexuality and how one perceives it within the societal restrictions of homo and heterosexual, and i think bridging those definitions and having "contradictory" labels like lesboy or whatever is really cool. i support and stan he/him lesbians or butch lesbians or she/her gay men or femme gays or she/he pronoun users and whatever else, be it cis or trans or both. if you feel like youre both cis and trans that also rocks. dont let people force you back into a binary within the queer community, stay strong!
what if instead of the sunshine institute they went to the magnus institute
i didn’t get to drawing them, but petra would be melanie, idk who basira and daisy would be tho. maybe if they were more unhinged they could be ivor?? idrk i think his personality would fit an avatar better (he’s sooo the eye coded it’s crazy)
no idea who elias would be either, maybe romeo?? but that could just be because they’re both antagonists, romeo is a lot more outwardly unhinged too
i feel like soren would be peter lukas. for obvious reasons
so maybe elias could be ivor? isor, lonelyeye, what’s the difference lol
anyways maybe i’ll assign everyone an entity to me aligned with, if the brainworms don’t get me first
and it's drew sarich playing armand????? mr vampire/queer musicals himself??
i need rockstar lestat having a broadway phase and playing himself in a dramatic musical about his life and singing songs from this musical (i mean he's basically had a trial run in the théâtre des vampires)
personally i think you should be legally required to have discovered your plurality and learned to function as a system for at least three full calendar years before being allowed a voice in syscourse. because when you don't, we end up with newbies regurgitating the same dumb fucking takes over and over such as "children can never have alters" or "endogenic systems were invented last year" or "your trauma wasn't bad enough to cause xyz" or even my personal favorite "there is never any overlap between DID/OSDD and MADD/BPD/literally any disorder"
Finally transferred my Benson and Randy playlists to Spotify and cleaned them up for public viewing on YouTube Music lol. I will probably add more songs to these in the future but for now each playlist has 40 songs. Each one is almost the exact same across both platforms except for Benson's playlist which has one song on YTM that's not on Spotify and vice versa. They sort of vary between songs that remind me of them, songs I think they'd like, and/or songs that feel like it's from their point of view, etc.
