How many will The Rot claim?

OUUUU FUCK IVEW BEEN HIT WITH DA SPELLS 🪄✨

hello there, i also love plural harry <333 i usually depict harry as more of an orbital system; the skills tend to layer over him as opposed to clean switches, and they'll usually let Harry do most of the fronting and stick in co-consciousness to provide advice and assistance, which feels more like how the game depicts it!! all depictions of plural harry are so delightful though <33

in my usual headcanons, it's rare for a skill to front (Savvy does it once canonically) it's usually a special occasion kind of thing, when a skill takes over as main fronter!! i love thinking about them doing so comfortably around kim :3

🔵 Conceptualization [voice is airier when (co-)fronting, lofty hand motions] drawing all of their inner appearances out for Kim to have as reference in his notebook, and Kim watching her draw fondly. (i still maintain that the Skill Portraits are all Conceptualization's art style!!)

🟣 Volition [voice is usually serious and direct, stands stalwart] doing his job and Kim recognizing and praising him for it and Volition getting flustered by it, i LOVE whenever this happens, it's such a funny fucking trope, NOT SO NONCHALANT NOW, ARE YOU CROWNHEAD??? (volition doesn't get enough credit in canon honestly, i think he's overdue the appreciation, it's so cute when he gets bashful about it, "I was uh- was just getting us back on track… not a big deal." "You're doing good work. Thank you, Volition." "the- it's- uh-! of course, i'm… I'm at your service, lieutenant…" RATTLES HIM. I LOVE HIM.)

🔴 bad chronic pain day for the body and Pain Threshold [most tired, pained voice you can imagine, slumped posture] answers the door in the morning looking absolutely miserable, "...Lieutenant. No one wanted to front. Give us a few more minutes to get ready." "…Would you like assistance?" "No." "…" "..." "...Threshold." "…Okay. Yes."

🟡 Interfacing [matter-of-fact, jargon-heavy dialogue, and fingers always tinkering/fidgeting] IMMEDIATELY fronting or at LEAST co-fronting for any Kineema discussion, they talk at LENGTH. they're so good at keeping up with each other when it comes down to mechanics talk, it is EXTENSIVE, they are TORQUE DORKS!!

anyway, on that note, have you read I'd Rather Be Whistling In the Dark? really good plural/DID harry with distinct individual skill switches interacting with Kim, VERY interesting depictions of it!! (can be a bit heavy but in a cathartic way, very emotional)

24 skills in a trenchcoat also a banger, it's been a while since i last reread it but i have it saved in my bookmarks which means it has my seal of approval :o

(and whenever the author's ready, i'll eventually have another fic to recommend for Kim interacting with the Skills, @ my newest mutual YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE <3333)

it's hard coming up with unique nicknames when everyone else just gets to call you variations of "Crownhead."
