#system cw

As always, if anyone has any questions about anything regarding my writing, or me, the system, etc. please don't feel shy about asking. I'm here to assist Zero and be an asset to everyone to understand systems better, even if I don't know everything.

•• How did you discover your System?

// I didn't actually KNOW that I was a System till I was in my 20s and those terms were more mainstream. I'd always had one alter with me since I was 13: Ritsuka, and he helped more than enough, with handling my growing up, the abuse, neglect, etc.

[ SYSTEM ASKS ]

(( Some members; the quiet ones are artistic. One of them, my little likes to make art from plants and outside materials by pressing them between wax paper in a journal (though we haven't been able to because we lack an iron xD.) Still they've been collecting acorns when we go out, so we have a baggie full of them 😂

💾 - what's your headcount?

// currently it's 10, though it can fluctuate due to new fictives should they choose to be known.

🦖 - is your system fictive-heavy? factive-heavy? neutral?

// I guess it's a mix? We have 5 fictives, and then the rest of the system, plus myself.

🌊 - who are your frequent fronters?

☕ - what is switching like for you?

// Switching is nothing too bad for us, unless someone gets triggered by something then Ritsuka (the system protector) will immediately front to keep us safe. I (Zero) don't necessarily blackout upon switching but I do get memory shifts/blanks when someone else fronts or I go into the headspace to get away from things, and every alter has their own memories and experiences.
