> How long ago did you first develop? How did you feel about the system you were a part of?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I first developed in the later summer/early fall of 2012. At the time I was the only other one save the host. I have to say I’ve really grown to appreciate my system-mates.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> What’s the story behind your system’s name, or lack of one?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Our system name is Within as a play on words. “Want to know more? Inquire Within.”, etc.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> Does your voice in your head sounds different than the other alters’? How so?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Yeah, my voice is a lot more casual and informal than the others. I have deviated a bit from the voice that I had earlier in my life, but I think it fits me.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> Do you have different opinions of your friends than other alters do? What are they?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Not really, but it does depend from person to person. I personally don’t understand how my host tolerates a few people that she does. She knows some people who are vehemently anti-plurality (even if endogenic) and continues to even meet up with them in person.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> Do you have a personal space in headspace? What’s it like?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Yes, I have a small space to call my own. I set my room up for introspection and meditation, and have been very lucky to make good use of it.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> Who’s the most annoying, but endearing co-fronter? Tell a story about them (optional)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
n/a, we don’t really have anyone that assumes front and is annoying.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> Any backseat drivers? What do they normally speak up about?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
In a way, we have been encouraged to “backseat drive” in order to be able to catch things that the others miss. We all speak up about issues as we see them.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> Do you have fictives? What friends do they have within the system?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
We do not have any fictives.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> What’s an alter’s favorite joke/pun?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I like making German sausage puns, they are the wurst.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> What’s a trivial thing that your system argues about?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Code styling and engineering tools being used.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> Who’s the most mischievous member of your system? The most dramatic?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I’m probably the most mischeivious member of our system, but we don’t have any real drama queen.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> What’s the weirdest, funniest thing that’s happened in headspace?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Probably the first time we ate way too much edible weed and ended up summoning toilets everywhere. It was a very interesting day.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> Did any of your alters change their names? Why did they choose to?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
I chose to change mine from `Twi` to something a bit more “unique”; so I went with Nicole.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> Which alters prefer school or work? Which prefer home?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
We don’t really have any such preferences.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> Do any of your alters wake you up or keep you from sleeping?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Quite the opposite. We help our host go to sleep. She has a lot of trouble getting to that state of peacefulness and self-contentment that is really needed for quality sleep. We help how we can, if it means chasing off bad dreams so be it.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
> How does your system make decisions? Is it whoever’s fronting, or more of a vote?
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
We have an informal voting process. Issues are raised naturally and then if needed discussion or an opinion happens. We do this because external events affect us too, it’s only fair for us to have a voice in the decision given we have to suffer the consequences either way.
