my isaac brooks csa narrative thoughts. spoilers up to upp 2.2
obviously the most prominent thing is isaac's behavior. if what his mom said is to be believed and isaac only started acting out in the last few years, that very clearly lends itself to either the abuse starting then OR more likely isaac finding support in his friends and realizing there is more wrong within his family than he knew.
that's not to say i think he's told anyone, very much the opposite. considering his overall mentality, in the psychological sense it's enough that his friends know he's verbally and physically abused simply by being around him and his family, but i also doubt isaac has the words to describe what's going on. authoritarian parenting like we see on the brooks family is focused on control, and not giving a child the framework to understand abuse makes them easier to abuse and less likely to speak out.
i do obviously think the perpetrator is his father, it's clear that he has no qualms about putting hands on isaac and that mrs. brooks feels either helpless to stop this or that it's appropriate considering isaac's behavior. that doesn't absolve her though. turning a blind eye to what's happening, and likely shielding bella from the truth, makes mrs. brooks complicit in all of what happens to isaac.
she isn't necessarily secretive about the situation either. after mrs. brooks calls the wisp household in the middle of the night, mrs. wisp rationalizes isaac and his father's disappearance as going on a camping trip, despite them not having it planned or packed for and clearly discussing with mrs. brooks that what's happening was some sort of punishment. the combination of isaac knowing to just get in the car with mrs. wisp's overall lack of reaction felt to me like this disappearing act was not too uncommon, it's just that it had gotten very late this time.
to get more into the metaphorical, isaac has been the "live bait", so to speak, in both case files so far. both times it has meant a violation of his body. both times he was kidnapped and held somewhere for a prolonged period in a manner that mimics the drives mr. brooks is known to take him on. once it was by his father, the person abusing him, and once by what i believe was meant to be a catholic priest which is a group that needs no introduction in this context. if this was a scripted story i'd call it heavy handed.
i dont really have a way to wrap this up nicely. isaac is being abused, and everyone knows. and he knows that they know.
Hi! I ran a poll to gauge interest about a plurality-centric zine, as I've been interested in running one for a while, but before I was both pretty busy, and unsure if there would be enough interest. So I decided to run the poll to see if it'd be worth doing.
And I'm happy to say the answer is, ABSOLUTELY YES!
So! If you are interested in the zine, please follow @pluralityzine, as that's where I'll be posting about it from now on! The blog is currently empty, BUT I should start adding more info soon (along with opening up contributor applications)
Thank you to everyone who voted on the poll, showing me this is a project people would be interested in!

Hi! Can you explain a bit what plurality is? I'm interested to discover but I'm unsure of what this is
hi! yes i can explain as a plural person myself.
plurality is the state of multiple people sharing a single body, commonly referred to as headmates. a group of headmates is referred to as a system!
headmates are as unique and individual as they want to be! usually a headmate will have their own name, pronouns and identity. there ARE exceptions to this, as plurality is a wide range of experiences.
some systems have a headspace! a headspace is a place within well. a systems head, that members of the systems can visit, and often interact with each other! some people's headspaces are very simple, whereas others can be very complex.
some useful terms are
singlet: a person who is NOT plural
alter: another word for headmate, however it has medical connotations, and is usually used by systems who were created by trauma and/or have a dissociative disorder related to their plurality
DID: a dissociative disorder listed in DSM-V and ICD-11, and the most well known form of plurality. this is a good place to learn about it from a plural perspective
origin: how the system formed! people have. a lot of discourse over whether systems who form through means other than trauma and dont have a dissociative disorder are "real systems". and by the way the answer is Yes they are. its bad when systems do it, so especially dont as a singlet act like some systems aren t real based on origin.
and i think those are the things you Generally need to know. if you want to learn more, pluralpedia is a good resource for learning what specific terms mean, and this video may help you understanding more since it's better constructed than my post.
if you want to learn more from other sources, i would just recommend reading and watching things by plural people themselves, since singlets can often be misinformed on plurality! :)
are people allowed to contribute anonymously? (I'm a system but am EXTREMELY not out and therefore if non-systems aren't permitted to contribute, I would have to contribute under a pseudonym or not at all)
im unsure about allies being allowed to contribute at this moment. id like for the zine to focus mostly on plural artists and writers . BUT! i may let singlets apply while stating that plural applicants will be HEAVILY favored over singlets.
and i would probably take more time to review their pieces just to make sure nobodys making anything Terribly pluralphobic. this is less relevant to you since youre asking from the perspective of a closeted plural but. i just wanted to answer thoroughly...
and yeah absolutely! i hadnt thought about that beforehand BUT i can absolutely make it possible to contribute anonymously :). youd have to give me Some method of contact, just so i could check in about your piece, but that wouldn't be shared and could be a burner email or discord if you wanted.
WOULD YOU BE INTERESTED IN A PLURALITY-CENTRIC ZINE?
Possible things to be included in the zine
-Art and writing about canonically plural characters.
-Art and writing about people's plural headcanons of characters.
-Art and writing about systems real life experiences.
Other details
-The zine would be a free digital zine most likely.
-This would be open to systems of any origin, and people who do not accept non-traumagenic system origins would not be accepted as contributors.
Are you interested?
Yes (as a contributor)
Yes (as a reader)
No
Voting ended onMay 30
EDIT: Now that the poll has concluded, I've decided to move forward with making the zine! If you're interested in contributing, or seeing the finished product, please follow @pluralityzine, as that's where I'll be posting about it from now on! :)

TIME: the time the piece takes will take depends on how busy i am, and how complex tthe piece is, but i will when ordering try and give you a good idea of how long it should take.
OTHER: i may add an extra charge if a piece requires complex posing or perspective, or something else that is extra difficult to draw. THIS should not be relevant to most commissions and i will tell you when this is the case.
