Heraldic Banner of Polyamory
On 11/11/2022, @matrioshkadog went on a twitter rant about how terribly designed pride flags are. To prove it, she used her knowledge of heraldy and vexiology to propose new flags off the top of her head. Having studied it myself (I was developing a game some 20 years ago where flags would play a big role, but the project got cancelled), I took it upon myself to bring the idea to life.
The official description goes as follows:
Tierced, azure, argent, and azure (translation: three stripes, blue, light gray, blue)
representing "this is a flag, not an inkjet test page"
Cerberus passant* sable (Translation: three-headed dog on all fours in black)
representing "poly, huh? At least some of you are definitely furries"
His top head, regardant, and in its muzzle, a dagger, or (Translation: first head looking over its shoulder, holding a yellow knife in its mouth)
representing how every polycule has someone where you’re like “what do you have?” and they’re like “a knife”
His middle head, armed (Translation: second head is growling)
representing "it’s friggin’ badass"
His bottom head, langued gules (Translation: third head is sticking its tongue out)
representing being dope AF
* The original proposal says "rampant" (on two legs) but I didn't realize until after I was done (the traditional heraldic depiction of Cerberus is on all fours)
She also had a pretty good proposal for the flag of Asexuality, but I didn't have the time to draw it
DISCLAIMER:
Neither I nor my characters are polyamorous (all straight unless otherwise noted) and I do not endorse any interpretations on the contrary. I will also not accept criticisms of: "What? But that's boring!"

So apparently getting ghost-adopted has an effect on one's form. Danny isn’t complaining, he’s not! He just uh, has five ghost parents. Who all look rather unique and have wildly different abilities. Not to mention his own.
He’s quite uh, not exactly annoyed, but uh… is this a secondary puberty? This is like a secondary puberty isn’t it.
Like, he’s getting horns, and wings, and a whole other pair of arms and who knows what else! Mothers, Fathers, help how will he hide this, it’s bleeding over into his human form! He was going to go to college, how is he going to hide this?!
