Remember this post?

It’s a meme in our system now. Inside joke.

Also: colored picture of Simon📖! He looks a lot healthier than Sick!Simon, mostly because he is. Blue makes sure he takes care of himself, and he writes a lot for his own enjoyment, not because a therapist told him to.

We’ve been discussing possibly posting some of his writing. He’s debating about it.

How Simon Henriksson of him ;p

Real shit said in headspace:

Reaper🪦: Please for the love of GOD don’t let any clown alters form

Death☠️: Yeah… seriously. Those things are creepy…

Simon📖: Here’s hoping

*maniacal clown laughter in the distance*

*Everyone turns, expecting Chuckles the Clown from Legends of Avantris to have somehow formed*

Me🧡🐍, innocently: What? :)

you've stripped him of so many of his qualities that it's no longer "he would not say that". it's "who the fuck even is that guy"

for me, being plural feels like so much more than “sharing a body.” its sharing a life.

this isn’t a hot take or anything, it’s just my own personal experience. we live in the same room, we strive towards the same goals, we maintain the same relationships, we look after each other so our lives, collectively and individually, are as happy as can be.

saying we merely share a body feels like if you lived with a partner (or similar close relationship) and referred to it as only “living together,” rather than having a long-term life that you share together. it almost feels like downplaying the impact of our system in the external world.

that’s entirely how i feel though, im speaking as a small system w/ managed/treated DID without one particular “host.” i don’t think feeling different is wrong or anything. in fact, im interested to hear why other systems favour the words “sharing a body” over “sharing a life!” i love hearing other people’s experiences, different and similar to mine.

plurality is such a vast spectrum of experience, disordered or otherwise. the brain is a damn funky little thing, i love it

source trauma sucks ass because theres no way to explain it to non systems without sounding fuckin insane
