I need a new babyfur girl character like Kirk needs another Tribble, but I've been thinking about this one for a while, so here she is... Melodee! I haven't fleshed out her backstory, but here's what I do know. Remember when you were growing up, and there was that one kid, maybe your sister, maybe your mom's friend's daughter, or maybe some random girl on the playground, who was always getting in the way? There was nothing wrong with her, exactly... she was just too young to be a part of your inner circle of friends, not that it ever stopped her from trying. That's Melodee.

The character design is still early, but she's musically themed... the dress she wears widens out at the end, looking like a bell with her diaper acting as the clapper. She's darker than my other bears, with a coat that shines in direct sunlight, and younger than the rest, at just 22 months. She's sweet and naive and cuddly and clingy and chatty and just plain annoying as hell to the older kids. Even grown ups can only tolerate her in small doses.
