Saun & Starr , two Harlem queens.

[ID: A drawing of the three player characters from Drawfee's Drawtectives series, posing in front of one of their pride flags. The drawings are black line art filled in with white, and the characters have their season 1 designs. York, a tall half-orc, is in front of an asexual flag. Rosé, a human, is in front of a sapphic flag. Grendan, a dwarf, is in front of a genderfluid flag. End ID.]
