The Evergreen System

Oh wow that's a great question. Well firstly I will say that yes it can be very scary, the best way to handle that is to not include any alter that isn't ready for, or capable of handling, that kind of responsibility and pressure. You don't have to throw your whole system in all at once (or even at all), just let the ones who want to and can run it, do so. Let them pave the way through the uncomfortable beginnings and then if other alters feel safer contributing then you can work them in. Safety of your alters (especially littles and trauma holders) is more important than any like or share or reblog or what have you.

Next I would say organize your thoughts (hahaha I know right?!) But seriously, find a blog template that gives you options to add pages and links and stuff. Make yourself a resource page that you, or your followers, can access different sources or resources. (Actually I need to rework mine so thank you for the reminder!) You can also use the pages to make alter intros if you want, easier than having them as a post buried at the beginning. Having pages will be helpful in two ways, one is that when you get asked questions you can have something already in place to link to. And the other is after you finish it, you'll take a step back and realize you've actually gotten a huge chunk done, and that will make you feel more validated/empowered in the idea. Sure tumblr is mostly viewed in dash form, but you my friend, just made yourself a website, and it's hard not to feel just a little bit more professional like that.

And lastly I would say don't let the fear of starting hold you back. I had a creative writing teacher that said, "The reason why the blank page is so intimidating, is because it is perfect. In it holds the potential for every thought that could ever exist. The moment you make a mark on it, it becomes yours." The idea she would try to get across is that the perfection is lost the moment you make a mark on the page, and when you stop trying to chase perfection, you can start running with something good.

I hope some of this could be useful to you, and I hope I can encourage you to express yourself(ves) more freely and feel good uplifting the community. It is a great cause and I'm excited for your journey into it!

So for you, I am wishing strength, vision, courage, patience, perseverance, and of course fun.

Strength to get that heavy wheel moving down the road, vision to know where you want to push it, courage to trust that even though you may not see where you are going you are still going the right way, patience because it may be a long road before you see great progress but with patience you'll get there, perseverance because there's gonna be some hard times and hard people and it may be tough to keep moving forward.

And of course fun, because at the end of the day it should be something you enjoy...or at least doesn't make you unhappy.

Sincerely,

Him wearing a bow in the flashbacks to his birth

Being forced to wear dresses as a child

Having to prove to his father at a very young age that he was a “man”

His father naming his dog “only son” prior to the birth of Roger

Being sensitive about his voice not being deep enough

And in general a high level of unacceptance to layer onto a small child with so few years under his belt, like it’s actually kind of ridiculous how much ostracization this kid had to put up with, including family disownment, and iirc he never actually goes into WHY his family disowned him, so like

I love the fact that “professional” is the first reason and “platypus” is the second, because this is extremely plausible for Perry.

1.Doofenshmirtz isn’t evil anymore,allowing Perry to date him

2.Romance betweet animal/human isn’t frowned upon in the Dwampyverse

‘‘our boy is all grown up’‘ ‘‘why is he a panda bear’‘

@deenalloh you have to watch milo murphy’s law season 2 to know what’s going on with Doofenshmirtz life.He stopped being evil to commit to his future self: ‘’Professor Time’’ inventor of time-travel and a public figure.

and he is trying to be a good guy now

also there’s 2 more time lines where he ends up good

1.Science teacher

2. O.W.C.A agent (The OWCA Files)

Perry getting trapped isn’t a sign of some intellectual folley - it’s a sign of his incredible problem-solving skills that he can escape them so easily, and a sign of his social intelligence that he knows to politely wait until his nemesis is ready to stop venting and start fighting.

a meme Pluto made when they were front stuck lol

If you had to deal with stress or traumatic situations and no one but some fictional characters (maybe they're even characters you made yourself/selves) gave you comfort during these times, it's more than likely you'll get fictives.

Or maybe content from a celebrity gave you comfort, or a historical figure you got interested in made you forget the current bad stuff going on, or there were some nice people you held dearly on your heart. Factives.

Maybe the opposite happened. Someone that hurt you, or a piece of media that gets on your nerves, or a scary creature from a folktale someone told you that made you not sleep at night, those too, can become alters.

If you were dehumanized, alienated, infantilized, demonized, romanticized, fetishized, etc. you may get headmates that act accordingly.

Sometimes they may exist without any known reason. My system got a literal badger and no one knows where it came from, it's not an animal that reminds us of comfort or trauma, it's just there.

reblog if

you’re a system

professional diagnosis

“having did is horrible for a lot of reasons and shouldnt be romanticized”

“its ok to do things like picrews of all alters just to have fun”
