#mv system

It has recipes for everything I ever wanted. Strawberry fizz, Blackberry and Apple Cake, classic Redwall scones. And as if that’s not enough, a note from the author himself:

With all the love in my heart,

Embroidered this on the back of my jacket for Pride a few months ago, promptly forgot. I used lineart direct from Watership Down to make the rabbit. ID under cut.

There have been multi-week periods where we don’t know who we are, unsure if we’re somebody new or just one of the established people having a Weird Time. Usually it’s the latter.

We tend to front for extended periods of time (like, normally a minimum of three days, sometimes up to several months), and the confusing Unknown times can be just as long.

Like, I have no idea who the hell I am right now. I know a couple of people I’m not, and a few I might be, but that’s it. And that’s chill. I don’t need to know my name, I’m just sippin my cranberry juice and minding my own business. This is normal for us.

I see so many systems on here worried about somehow faking or fundamentally misunderstanding their experiences, because nobody else has talked about it, so it must not be real, right?

Just a reminder to systems with their own Weird Times: it’s ok to have experiences you’ve never seen in anyone else’s journey.

Being plural isn’t something easily categorized or broken down. If anything counts as wibbly-wobbly-timey-wimey stuff, it’s the experience of being multiple entities in one brain.

In theory I get it, I don’t have any questions about why or how it happens.

Tw insect/wasp mention below.

Relevant Fact 1: I have a cold.

Relevant Fact 2: My room frequently has wasps in it.

I hear the EXACT VIBRATIONAL FREQUENCY of wasp wings, yeet myself off the bed (where I was chilling with the Tumblr) and then stand in the hallway watching and listening for The Wasp.

Then I breathe out. And my nose vibrates like a goddamn pager.

I’m pretty sure someone in my head was TRYING to ask if I wanted to go to sleep.
