The Phonebook System

below are intros for notable members of the system. not everyone bothers to use tumblr so it’s unlikely you’ll hear directly from all of them

🐜 - Tabby (Any/All) | Host/System artist | host note: trying my best👍👍

🎀 - Tara (She/They) | Obligatory freak of the system | host note: genuinely she is such a freak get me OUT OF HERE

🌸 - Nora (She/Her) | Silent watcher | host note: pretty quiet to the point of sometimes being inaudible. doesn’t speak unless spoken to for some reason. we don’t know much about her but she’s been around for a while

👥 - Nine (She/They) | Socializer | host note: two heads. both think/speak independently and talk as if they were two separate alters. fronts only when socializing irl

🎸 - Jett (She/He) | Anger holder | T.K.O. (OK K.O.) fictive | host note: a little rude but she’s kinda chill when she’s not pissed at something. the system’s trust issues stem from him

🐶 - Kaio (He/Him) | Mood booster | K.O. (OK K.O.) fictive | host note: literally just showed up the day of writing this after weeks of us suspecting his existence. radiates joy and whimsy

🐍 - Venomous Subsystem (All He/Him) | Subsystem of 3 fictives | Professor Venomous, Shadowy Figure, and Laserblast fictives (OK K.O.) | host note: never realized truly how much he (specifically PV) fronts until a few days ago (usually when we’re alone). might be partially to blame for the system’s draw to science

🥩 - Leigh (She/Her) | No applicable role | Leigh (Look Outside) fictive | host note: spawned out of what was originally multiple system members kinning her. loves ripping shit apart

🧪 - E. Raser (He/Him) | No applicable role | Dr. E. Raser (Yokai Watch) fictive | host note: appeared one day and now shows up on occasion. very strange fronting conditions that we haven’t yet figured out. kind of annoying

🩺 - Dr. Maddiman (He/Him) | Night owl | Dr. Maddiman (Yokai Watch) fictive | host note(s): yes i have been keeping this from you. blorbo from my games has been a fictive in this system for years😭 he doesn’t even do much he’s pretty source-accurate (especially compared to some of our other fictives). the most he does is front/co-front whenever we’re walking around at night because he sucks like that. other than that we rarely hear from him

📄 - Hino (He/Him) | Overworker | Hinozall (Yokai Watch) fictive | host note: he shows up whenever we’re doing something productive, overworks the shit out of our body, then leaves without elaborating. also literally only fronts if we’ve seen anything to do with him/his source during the day. his public execution is next tuesday. specifically a fictive of hinozall, not the hino. strange but we ball

again, this is not all members (not even close). many are fictives that are fixation/interest-dependent and tend to either go dormant or completely disappear and be forgotten by the rest of us if we lose interest in their source. also because im lazy and don’t want to keep writing. this list will probably be updated over time. probably.

BEFORE YOU INTERACT:

our system has memory issues and asks you to be patient with us if we do not remember something. consider reminding us before you assume we remember, just in case. we might have shared memories, but not everything is shared. some things just get lost in switches.

our system’s plurality is directly affected by our autism. as I’ve stated before, many fictives are fixation-dependent. do not expect a fictive to be there. it’s always better to ask, just to make sure (but if you follow our main it’ll be pretty damn obvious what we’re fixated on /silly)

our system tends to have multiple fronters/co-fronters at a time which leads to us frequently being blurry/blendy or rapidly switching between two headmates

yes we have a lot of fictives (as most were originally identityless alters who latched onto certain characters). yes you can treat them as their source characters or talk to them about their source (though some may treat it as separate, some may not. also most have either limited or no source memories outside of what the system itself knows about their source [which leads to some treating their source as something separate that happened to another version of them or something I don’t know it’s confusing])

don’t be afraid to ask us about things or send us stuff in our inbox!!!!!! we love answering questions!!!! and we love listening to others talk about their systems!!!!!!! if you have a double of a fictive PLEASE tell us how they are for you!!!!!!! we love listening to you!!!! :-))))

dni if you’re anti endo/willo/any non-traumagenic system types. i will not stand for syscourse of any kind. you repulse me if you think debating another system’s existence is normal. you’re no different from the people who use r/fakedisordercringe (aka the people who would fakeclaim you). if you genuinely think all non-traumagenic systems are faking, i beg of you to do some actual research for once in your life.

our main is @gendersoap (mainly run by tabby [me], but frequently used by jett and tara)

seriously our inbox is open. send us questions. send us infodumps about the intricacies of your system. yap to us about your fictives. please. don’t be afraid. hell, send us confessions for all we care. that would be awesome actually
