#system rambles

How can I possibly bring it up to one of our host's partners (singular, but has interacted with other systems than us) to know that we're? Not all Ajax?

He has the right idea, caring for all of us and he says he knows that we'll act differently depending on who's fronting.

But he also very much kind of treats us all like host. Claiming he's dating and loving all of us and not really treating us too different.

And I'm thinking that might be why we usually just mask around him. A lot of us are very conflict avoidant and the fact he's interacted with a (to my knowledge) diagnosed system makes us nervous on how he may react if we say we don't like all being treated the same.

I also, fucking hate romance and similar intimacy. I don't want to break it off because of host, but I also know saying "I don't like romance, don't treat me like a partner" is too blunt for such a complex issue.

It doesn't help that I'm romance repulsed while being very dtf if ykyk. And I know how that looks and how that can be taken

Apologies , I was disoriented and unable to understand your question for a solid 5+ minutes when I hopped on Tumblr.

When I refer to "System Terminology" ..

I'm not talking about "Source" or "Source Memories(?)"

I'm speaking of medically or system exclusive terminology used by and for Systems. This may also include ..

"Switching" , "Front(ing)" , "Fictive" , etc

Them explaining and denying any association with CDDs (Systemhood) while also using system-based terms.. feels iffy.

"(Kin) is fronting" or "(Kin) just switched" or "We have 7 Fictives!"

And it's a fictionkin saying this.

There are pre-existing terms by the Fictionkin community such as "Kinshift/Shifting" or "Kintype(s)" so I find it strange how one uses terms made for a different group of people to replace their own community made ones.

Especially if it's something with a medical background/history.

No this doesn't mean I don't want fictionkins in general interacting with me. I encourage fictionkins to interact with us! Unless they support or are part of something in my DNI.

But even then I don't think it's appropriate to use terminology used for disordered people. Especially since both Fictkin and Sys experiences are DIFFERENT.

They are not the same and shouldn't be treated as such.

I won't go out of My way to harass these people or force them to stop. But if they have no ties with systemhood , I'd rather they didn't interact with Me.

As a person on the internet with no real power over every single person I encounter , I acknowledge not everyone will listen to Me.

Or agree with My opinions. But I will stand by my statement that fictionkins SHOULDN'T use system terminology.

Apologies if this is poorly explained??? Or doesn't cover everything.

does anyone else refer to their headspace kind of like an alter? for instance alot of times we'll say stuff like

"oh headspace doesn't want you to know that"

"headspace won't let me say it"
