I’m thinking of writing an au where Anthony from TFWLB timeline is trying to fix everything that is now happening in the IFA timeline so what happened in his timeline doesn’t happen here.
It goes off the idea that instead of Hollow going back to fix things this time it’s TFWLB Anthony (who I will just call Ash (which will become important later) since I’m not clever to think of anything else and to make it easier to differentiate from each other) and Hollow ends up getting erased as they price that must be paid for Ash now while IFA Anthony still has his version of Hollow.
Ash is still able to see the imaginary friends and is trying to act like he can’t see them so they don’t hurt him because he knows that if he ‘tried’ to explain what happened they wouldn’t believe him (which he wouldn’t fault them tbh) and he doesn’t even want to attempt to the children who are already going through so much right now.
He’s pretty much taken right back to when the first murder occurs at the asylum and now gets to have a lovely, fun time investigating it while also try to reveal what really happened there.
Weird thing, for the au to kinda work, he ends up replacing someone (somebody not very important in the world) that worked as a Investigator in the world and who was being hired to investigate what is happening in the asylum. Pretty much completely replacing that person in order for his existence in this timeline to be explained so it doesn’t create a paradox.
Completely and utterly becoming this person who is ‘similar’ enough to him in order for it to work. Someone who has ‘suffered’ a bit in his own life that it can parallel’s Ash’s own experiences in the end. Person was called Ashton Rose and so he takes up the identity fully in the end.
Pooky is one of the few that gets a genuine weird vibe from him and is fairly certain that ‘Ash’ can see him and the others while Ash is do everything he can to ensure that they don’t find out.
Kinda a short explanation on the idea but I’m still thinking on a lot of things about it.

I've been feeling a little more down these past few days, and motivation hasn't exactly been very high... I ended up doing some practice with Hollow from Imaginary Friend Asylum! I like to draw her, is very fun.

Random random question: Can Smudge like- Read Tommy's thoughts??? i know it sounds weird but still
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Smudge: "Tommy knows Morse Code, ASL, and English. As far as communicating goes, he uses ASL with the children but sometimes when he's upset with one of them he switches to Morse Code."

I get very emotionally attached to father and paternal figure characters who are/become overprotective of the kid(s) under their guardianship.
I feel like Pooky will always see Annabelle like this no matter how old she gets 🥺

I’m a huge fan of the games The Friends We Left Behind and Imaginary Friend Asylum. There’s just something appealing to me about the concept of humans having monster companions. In a lot of ways, the bond between child and imaginary friend reminded me of the Digimon franchise—which simultaneously made me adore the Friends We Left Behind world even more while also making me curious about what Digimon the imaginary friends may best translate to.
Here’s my personal thoughts, but if you’re a fan of both franchises, feel free to make your own list/s and tag me in it!
—————
When the protagonist first comes to the asylum, he meets Niccolò Galo and Polo.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Despite Polo’s humble demeanor in the above concept art, he is depicted as flamboyant, pompous, and outspoken. His design is also loosely based off a 1600s entertainer. Jokermon immediately came to mind until I remember the existence of Fakemon. It has all the spirit of Jokermon but shares more physical features with Polo, including the mask, cape, and drama masks.
—————
Next up is Edward Bennett’s friend, Twistee.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
While it’s never expressly stated that Twistee is part plant, his coloration and texture immediately brought to mind images of plants. Ajatarmon felt like a perfect fit, not just for the coloration but for its flexible body and the inclusion of a mask in its design. While Twistee is friendlier than most Ajatarmon, the visual similarities couldn’t be overlooked.
—————
Tommy Bennett and his friend, Smudge, are the youngest residents at the asylum.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Smudge is an artist at heart, and he uses his drawings to express himself. I went back and forth between Bacomon and Omekamon for a while before ultimately settling on the latter, not only for color-matching purposes but also for the fact that both love drawing and both wear drawn-on faces.
—————
Pete Gustavo and Marco are the newest residents at the asylum, so very little is known about them.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Marco may have been the most difficult for me to find a Digimon counterpart to. Though I thought of him as a sentient doll, the Wiki describes him as “fishlike,” and his dialogue consists of little more than pirate puns. When disregarding his appearance altogether and focusing on his behavior in both games, I was left with a gruff creature that spent a lot of time in or around water and consistently had a pirate motif. Piranimon fit the best to me, but other Digimon like Hookmon, MarineChimariamon, and Mermaimon were also considered.
—————
The first character the protagonist meets from the girl’s ward is Annabelle Walker and her friend, Pooky.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Despite resembling a jester, Pooky is anything but comedic. He is fiercely protective of his human and is known for going to extreme lengths to keep her safe. He also has a strong affinity with fire. I went back and forth between Phelesmon, NeoDevimon, and SkullSatamon for a while, but I ultimately settled on the Phelesmon for visual and symbolic reasons.
—————
Momo Akane’s friend, Pixie, is characterized best in The Friends We Left Behind.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pixie craves attention and loves singing. Other than this, the only thing we know about her is the fact that she sports a “lolita punk” aesthetic. To my knowledge, there are no Digimon that marry the popstar concept with Pixie’s highly stylized design choice. LovelyAngemon was the closest match, especially when compared to the some other options.
—————
Charlotte Weaver is a shy girl who likes making dolls with her friend, Dolly.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There is no doubt in my mind that young Charlotte would have a Dressmon partner if she lived in the digital world. Both Dolly and Dressmon are patchwork dolls stuck with sewing pins. While other Digimon may have more visual similarities to Dolly, few (if any) manage to capture the sewing theme as well as Dressmon.
—————
[MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD!!!]
Last but not least is the protagonist himself, Anthony Rivers, and his elusive imaginary friend, Hollow.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Hollow is no where to be seen in The Friends We Left Behind, and she only appears in the second half of Imaginary Friend Asylum. However, she plays a crucial role in both games’ overarching plots. Her clockwork-porcelain-angel design is unique, but I feel Quantumon captures some of Hollow’s more notable features and shares her ability to rewrite history.

Who up imagining they friends?
Okay, real talk though, I've been absolutely OBSESSED with Imaginary Friend Asylum and The Friends We Left Behind (patiently waiting for Imaginary Friend Institution). The designs for the friends are all so unique and colorful and they're full of life and I love each of them
I did make this for a playlist cover, but I love it too much not to share. There's also an alt version without the pink overlay under the cut
edit: i forgot pooky's wings :(
Personally though I prefer the overlay, makes it look more dreamy (even though it turns Hollow completely pink)
