Dude I need claws SO bad. Except I need prosthetics to be really sturdy, so I can actually like. Use them for shit. Like I wanna be able to wear them to help me climb or claw at stuff or whatever I need them for. But people only make like plastic or foam or resin claws. It's not STRONG enough. I need like. IRON claws. STEEL claws. Claws I can climb trees and rock faces with. Claws that could kill a man if I wanted them to. It's a fucking TRAGEDY these aren't a thing, and I swear to God I'm about to learn metalworking just so I can make myself a suitable set.
HI Y'ALL. Remember when I said I was getting these actually made by someone. Wellll....
These things are Very cool. They stay on my fingers very well, and have a nice weight to them! They are also able to scratch shit up very nicely. It's hard to see in the gif since I had to compress it (and also didn't want to make too much noise in my dorm lmao), but they are very effective. I've been told they should hold fairly sturdy (within reason) when climbing and such as well.
If y'all want some of your own, the guy I commissioned has an email set up at [email protected] !!
I will also get some more pictures once I get the chance to visit my woods back at home B)

a lot of our posts are about fictives because were fictive heavy. and being a fictive is objectively the funniest part of being a system
how it feels sometimes
it is perfectly fine to need help with your system in a way one you don't commonly see systems needing help. everyone struggles with different things, which does include rare issues.

Plural Tools & Alternatives Masterlist
In light of the recent announcement of the soon discontinuation of Simply Plural (link to the announcement), me and a handful of discord users ( @echoingstepps, @puppeteerings / @puppeteerings-alt and @ichorsys ) made a document compiling alternatives to the app and other general resources like guides, how-to's, websites and other varied resources for systems/plurals.
I will be updating the document from time to time with more resources- my goal is to expand it as much as possible. If you know of a resource that isn't in the doc, feel free to tell me about it and i'll add it. suggestions are also welcome.
Please contact @fall3n.f3ath3r on discord or @the-elysium-collective on tumblr for any questions, comments, or other about this document Th
really funny to me when someone criticizes a plural character for having visible switches because "someone would notice" lemme tell you firsthand that we have gotten away with some absolute bullshit because nobody expects anyone to be plural
Did some silly thing I thought of. Another template! Go wild! Edit it to fit something else! Eat it! Fill it in! Idk! Go ballistic!
My other templates | If you'd like you can tag this with #fictive id template :)
âall the âsystemsâ these days got some many internet-related fictives!! theyâre faking!â or maybe its like. the youth is more exposed to online media than before (its almost like the internet is new in the grand scheme of things), including plural youth. of course theyâre gonna have more pop-culture/internet introjects.

It can be a bit difficult at times to explain how our weird little soupy subsystem exists and functions within our overall system, so to provide a bit of a visual aid, we made a quick... comic? Infographic? Whatever this is!
fictives, you deserve happiness, and to be true to yourself, whatever that means! theres a lot of preassure on fictives to be one way or another, to source separate or not, to do this and that, but... if you can safely be yourself, i think that path is worth considering.
I split after the body moved out of the family home so having to move back in with this clowns has given me unique insight into every single one of my pre-move headmates's dysfunctions.
One of the most tragic things about the anti endo community is developing a system is a great alternative to suicide.
"I think I'd notice if you were a system, I've never seen you switch or any signs saying you would be one"
Because people don't notice until they look for it. Singlets just assume we're having a weird day. Or we're sick. Or we're tired. Or we got a headache all of a sudden. Even though we're fairly covert from an outsiders perspective IRL, or if we're trying to mask, the people who care can usually tell that something is different.
People who actually know and understand and believe that we're a system will learn. They'll be able to see things change, at least some of the time, even if those signs are so so tiny. If singlets are supportive, they can notice the signs that are there pretty surprisingly quick, down to being able to guess who's fronting for us on occasion.
People who are sceptical from the beginning won't be actually paying attention. People that fakeclaim others tend to be looking for reasons to not believe you. Obviously systems vary in how they present and not every system has to present in a way that's noticeable, which absolutely doesn't make any of them fake. But if you do think your system is noticeable and people are saying you must be faking because they could never tell, then it's very likely they're ignoring the signs in favour of their own agenda. If their mind is closed, their eyes might as well be too. Don't let that break your confidence.
Being a system safely requires passing as a singlet. Being a system is extremely stigmatized; the world is insanely hostile to any non-singlet experience, down to the most mundane parts of society. Most systems learn to hide or are structured internally around hiding or both. So you have to lie about who you are every second of the day and then people will tell you "I think I'd notice if you were lying." Like hell you would lmfao.

Sometimes I want to use this blog to talk about pluralphobia but like. Where do I even begin.
Almost every system I've ever talked to has at least one story about being mocked/shamed/hated or worse for their plural traits. So many of us deal with those we're close to treating us like serial killers in waiting due to how media portrays us. Fandom spaces treat us like hypotheticals and act disgusted when you tell them their "totally Weird⢠and Random⢠prompt" is some people's lived reality. Medical professionals dehumanize us and marginalized communities follow in their footsteps to deny us any language or space to talk about ourselves, because how dare we say we're similar to them, how dare we treat our individual selves as individuals and not party tricks that need to be put away when we are having Serious Discussions. People will claim to support us, but in order to support us, they simply must insult us, fakeclaim us, send us gore and threats and suicide bait, threaten to make false reports of tax fraud against us (yes, this is a real thing that happened to me once), openly wish for our deaths, use any and every excuse they can to delegitimize us, compare us to slave owners and Nazis, demonize the tools we made for ourselves while using them for themselves or even claiming credit for their creation, mock our terminology, run us off emergency hotlines, even get us institutionalized â don't you know that's what "support" looks like, you silly little blogger that we will spin into either a helpless, manipulated child that must publicly admit every trauma they've ever endured to justify their existence online, or an evil, manipulative bigot that denies the latest science (no matter what those articles actually say), depending on whatever suits our latest narrative?
I know plurals personally who have had to choose between being open + receiving help they need... and remaining housed. Remaining fed. Remaining safe. And we can't even point out that a character is plural representation because then people clamber over each other about how plurality in media is never anything more than a metaphor â unless, of course, it's from a horror franchise. Then, at least, we might get an admission that they're sorta almost similar to DID, except totally not, so don't worry about it, there's nothing more to see here.
Where do you even begin when there's so much to talk about and yet just calling pluralphobia "systemic" causes people to start spitting out denials and dismissals and erasure at the speed of light?
I am an optimist because I have to be but oh my gosh it is fucking hard to be sometimes.
(Not looking for cheering up on this post. Please keep any reblogs on-topic regarding pluralphobia and erasure.)
As someone who has consistently been threatened, belittled, and been told directly to my face that I am psychotic, delusional, and an insult to âpeople who actually have DIDâ, including those Iâve confided into who are in the medical field, I agree that it is absolutely disgusting to see.
I am a person who cannot receive the help I need, otherwise I will be threatened and mocked and hurt by the people who I am meant to call my family, and it is gross how much Iâve gone from being open about my experiences to being terrified to even utter anything about plurality near anyone, or, hell, even reading literature on the topic!
Even if you do get a competent psychologist who believes you, they want to make you ânormal againâ. In my experience, I have only met those who couldnât give a flying shit about anyone in our system, actively shaming alters who wonât cooperate or think differently which has only caused their actions and mental state to worsen, and could care less about what we feel, because we just need to be âfixedâ, treated like an object and tossed around until they eventually find the solution. And if they donât, they toss us aside and bury the topic six feet below the ground and never acknowledge it again.
Blatant and normalized pluralphobia has always disgusted me, and itâs even more disgusting how accepted and widespread it is- even expected to some extent, and yet those who are plural are âableistâ for not wanting to get better, even if plurality has made their lives better or when theyâre actively pushing us away from the help we need. They donât want to help us, they want us to be normal.
I have long believed that trauma treatment must address the effects of the traumatic past, not its events. Being able to tolerate remembering a horrific experience is not as important a goal as feeling safe right here, right nowâor being able to reassure oneself that the racing of the heart is just a triggered response, not a sign of dangerâor being able to relate to shame, grief, and anger as the feeling memories of child selves too young to comfort themselves. In my view, resolution of painful past events cannot truly be achieved without reclaiming the lost children and disowned parts of ourselves, extending to them a helping hand, welcoming them âhomeâ at long last, creating safety for them, and making them feel wanted, needed, and valued. It took many decades of scientific research for the clinical world to accept that child abuse constituted an epidemic, not a rare occurrence, and that untreated post-traumatic stress resulted in tremendous social costs, not just individual suffering. Only in the last ten years have the concepts of implicit memory and bodily-driven responses to trauma become increasingly widespread (Ogden et al., 2006; Van der Kolk, 2014), but, even now, theoretical ideas about splitting, parts of the self, and dissociation are still controversial and often avoided. We as a field have not yet accepted that compartmentalization is normal under stress and much more common than we generally recognize. In a parallel process, the mental health world has had a history of disowning the prevalence of child abuse, dissociation, and fragmentation of the personality, either by ignoring its manifestations or by invalidating it as âfactitiousâ or âmalingering.â To be the âgood childâ in the psychiatric treatment world, therapists have been under pressure to âun-seeâ signs of dissociation, to diagnose voices as a psychotic symptom, and to treat fragmented clients âas ifâ they were whole integrated human beings. To be an integrated human, as Dan Siegel (2010) insists, requires âdifferentiationâwith linkage,â that is, it necessitates the ability to make distinctions between different parts of the self, to name them as parts, but also to link them to other parts and to the whole of which they are a part. Disowning parts of oneâs self and over-identifying with other parts does not facilitate integration and a sense of being whole, nor does it engender an internal sense of safety that could counteract the after-effects of an unsafe, unwelcoming hostile world.
