Plural Experiences Ask Game
I keep seeing people say that they wish the plural community would focus less on labels and slapfighting and more on the experience of living as plural, so I decided to make an ask game about it. All systems welcome to participate as long as you respect the spirit of the post and don't drag discourse onto it. Feel free to copy and paste this wherever with or without credit, a bunch of these questions were lifted from other places anyway.
I tried to pick or at least phrase questions to be as inclusive as possible, but I've almost certainly missed things - plurality is diverse and my system only experiences a small corner of it. I encourage people to make their own ask games!
🌱 (seedling) - How did you discover you were plural?
💐 (bouquet) - What analogy would you use to describe your system to a curious stranger?
🌸 (cherry blossom) - What things were major influences upon your system? (e.g. life events both positive and negative; meaningful media; other identities)
🌻 (sunflower) - If you can communicate internally, what is that like? If you can't communicate internally, do you have other methods for communicating with each other?
🍁 (maple leaf) - If you can switch, what is that like? If you can't switch, is it something that you're interested in?
🪴 (potted plant) - If you have a headspace, what is that like? If you don't have a headspace, where do system members normally hang out?
🍂 (fallen leaves) - Do you experience yourselves as individuals, as parts of a whole, or some secret other thing?
🌴 (palm tree) - Is there anything that you do to spend time together?
🌿 (herb) - What tools, if any, do you use to navigate life as a plural system?
🌲 (evergreen tree) - What kinds of relationships (familial, romantic, platonic, etc) exist between members of the system?
🌵 (cactus) - Do system members have disagreements with each other? How do you resolve them, if so?
🌺 (hibiscus) - Is there a "common" plural experience that you don't experience?
🌾 (sheaf of rice) - What does your average day look like? How does plurality intersect with it?
🎍 (kadomatsu) - Do you decorate your space or keep mementos of/for yourself and other system members? (e.g. perfumes, clothes for specific people, art, jewelry)
🍎 (apple) - What advice would you give to a singlet looking to be an ally?
🍀 (four leaf clover) - What advice would you give to a newly selves-discovered system?
🌹 (rose) - Is plurality, overall, a net positive or a negative for you? (Or neither?) If given the opportunity to become singlet (whether through fusion or everyone getting their own body), would you take it?
