Voi appariate
Loro appaiano
Tu compaia
Lui/lei compaia
Noi compariamo
Voi compariate
Loro compaiano
Tu scompaia

Note: we often add the subject pronoun in front of verbs in the subjunctive for emphasis or to distinguish the person “doing” verbs that have the same ending.

We think you disappear too often VS We think he disappears too often.
