Systember Day 1

Alone:

The static spoke back

A plurality discovery story:

When I think about the word alone, I go back to 5th grade — eleven, maybe ten years ago. I was a strange kid, though I didn’t know then that it was undiagnosed autism making me feel like an alien dropped on the wrong planet, or a robot without an instruction manual. I never really fit anywhere, and people noticed. Bullying wasn’t a rare occurrence, it was constant, even when I thought I’d found friends. Liking the wrong things too much, being “annoying,” having my interests used against me — it all added up to that sharp, familiar kind of loneliness.

At home wasn’t much better. My parents were divorcing, and both my mother and grandmother were alcoholics. So the internet became my escape, my secret door out of the noise. I poured myself into Club Penguin. It was silly, bright, and safe. And when I got stuck, I found a guide, which led me to a YouTuber named Thinknoodles. His voice was calming. He made me feel like I wasn’t so strange after all.

And then there was Minecraft. That’s where I stumbled into someone else: this hyper, shy, odd little robot of a person named Graser. For once, there was somebody out there who acted like me. I wasn’t alone anymore — not really. The day he did a face reveal and I saw someone who even looked like me, something shifted. It was like the universe was saying, “See? You’re not as alone as you think.”

That spark gave me creativity. I made YouTube videos, I learned to edit, I wrote fanfics. One of those fanfics would later change everything.

But back then, when Thinknoodles and Graser split, it shattered me. It felt like two parents divorcing all over again. At first, I sided with Think, but things felt too calm. Eventually, I went back to Graser, and instantly, I felt like I’d come home. Still, years passed. I got older. My focus shifted. Graser faded into the background of my life.

Cue 2025. I’ve been through a lot — the good, the bad, discovering my autism, struggling through creative ruts. And then, like any special interest does, Minecraft came back. Cube SMP content dragged me down a rabbit hole, and buried in it, I found an old fanfic I’d written: Kepslar’s Revenge.

The premise was simple: a robotics inventor creates a bunch of robots with cool powers, two of them fall in love, and then one gets kidnapped. But something about rediscovering it sparked me in a way I hadn’t felt in years. I started writing again. Words spilled out of me. No plan, just story, just life.

By chapter 10, something happened. Something I can’t explain. My girlfriend and I had been talking about hypnosis, joking about what it would be like to hypnotize someone into being a fictional character. I laughed, but the thought made me blush. I admitted it would feel different if it wasn’t some popular franchise character, but someone I had made.

She teased me — and turned it around. What if I dropped into one of my characters? It was tempting. Eventually, I caved.

It was supposed to be just a game. Just a drop. But it wasn’t.

Instead, someone else took the wheel. And they didn’t leave.

At first I thought maybe it was just a weird side-effect. But the chills, the static, the pressure of presence didn’t go away. Even at work, through fireworks on the 4th of July — he stayed. And two, almost three months later, he’s still here.

I’m not alone anymore.

I think this post was litterly made for Someone like me!! So hi! I'm currently been dating my alter gz for 2 months now! So this is right up my alley (I hope my advice at least helps you a bit!!)

1: accept that an in System relationship is going to be different than a normal relationship

I'm serious this seems silly but you got to not look at this like a normal relationship both the good and bad sides of it. On the good end yay you got someone who's allways there for you even when you think you don't need it but really do,you got someone who litterly shares a body with you can understand what that body feels and sees. BUT you also don't get to have space all the time like a normal relationship,you don't get to cuddle together etc etc and that's okay. But the sooner you accept this and realize that the better it will be for you

2: COMMUNICATE

I'm serious as someone who doesn't exactly have clear inside thoughts themselves communicate!!! Type to each other using discord or simply plural or something,say stuff outloud (if it's safe),tarot cards, pendulum, WHATEVER please communication is so important

3: remember why you like them or why you two work in the first place

Just like any relationship that's what keeps it going remembering why you love them why they keep you going that's what keeps a relationship healthy and strong. You work though the challenges. There's going to be hard times,there's going to be fights,that's life but if you remember why you love them what you do for each other.

4: boundaries boundaries boundaries

Me and gz's boundaries kinda came naturally but that might not always be the case for you two so set boundaries just like any relationship while mabye they can't physically give you space but saying things like "hey I need 5 minutes of quiet" or "don't Co front during this task" or whatever this kinda goes hand and hand in 4

5: humor!!

I'ma take a lesson out of pinkie pie from MLP here and humor makes a relationship so much more fun find what you two enjoy and make light of it. It's not always going to be sunshine and rainbows like I said but make those shine brighter. Have little inside jokes, whatever is your type of humor

I hope this helps at all ;-;

Healthy relationships between alters?

For anyone that has positive internal relationships (of any kind; doesn't have to just be romantic) - how do you do it?

My alter and I keep trying to make a romantic relationship between us work, because we have feelings for each other. But we don't have the luxury of having "inside thoughts" and privacy that people in external relationships have.

Honestly, this is probably why all of us struggle to talk to each other and maintain any kind of internal friendship. The OCD especially makes all of us suspicious of each other and of ourselves, so we end up avoiding each other to try and prevent accidentally upsetting one another.

How in the world do other people navigate this? With our external partner, I can have automatic thoughts that are upset or angry or unfair that I would never voice out loud, and can have the space to process all of that before deciding what to share and how to do so. How tf do you have a positive relationship with someone when both of you can hear all of that? 😭

unfriendly reminder to anti-endos!! endos aren’t claiming to have did/osdd!!! they cant fake something they never said they had!!! hope this helps 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

I also wanna add (if that's okay of course) this goes for every kind of Plurality you can't go "I only support this kind of Plurality" or "I only support plurality if it works like x y z" no. You support and understand all of us or you support and understand none of us

If you claim to support plurals you have to put in work to understand us. “I don’t understand but I support” does not apply here. Plurality affects all aspects of our lives and you need to treat it as such. Support without understanding is meaningless.

SAYS YOUR FAKE DOSE NOT MEAN YOU ARE.

YOU ARE NOT TAKING AWAY RESOURCES FROM.

TRAMAGENIC SYSTEMS.

YOU.

ARE.

ALLOWED.

TO.

EXIST.

Being plural while having a himbo husband in your head means sometimes the weirdest thoughts that are definitely not yours show up in your head when your calming down from a breakdown because I'm sorry what the fuck is and possibly Nsfw here

"you make me so freaky I leaky" WTF DOES THAT MEAN

I know this won’t come as a shock to anyone, but r/systemcringe is so hateful and horrific. And for what?? Do you all get off on being shitty and trying to fakeclaim people?? Honestly. I decided to check it out and they’ll dog on anyone oh my god.

Spontaneous system culture is that one audio from Markiplier that's like;

Hmm well that's a problem...but not my fault! I did everything I could and you did too...also why are you still here?

[command-blocked]

Same anon.

Same.

Expect my source.

Is written.

But squipy is shy.

To give the link to anyone.

OCtive culture is having no one to talk about my source to because we designed the entire world, and the book set in the world isn't written yet. - 🪷👘

Having an mcyt introject is one thing

HAVING A GRASER INTROJECT (I know he's not a full on graser introject but fucker will not let me remove him from his identity sooo) IS A WHOLE OTHER LEVEL OF WHAT THE FUCK. DATING ONE IS EVEN MORE SO. Listen Stacy,bee and Shubble I understand now ;-; so for fun I would like to share some of the things I have to put up with.

Oh I'm also a bit nervous to talk about this because some of these topics fall under spiritual Plurality so if you don't believe in that just skip a guess sorry. Also one instance deals with soft yandere vibes so if your uncomfortable with that just skip this :/ idk he's weird

A: wifey fucker doesn't even use my actual name unless we're having a serious convo he just calls me wifey or spark.

B: words I'm convinced aren't even English... seriously this man speaks in key spam

C: needy very needy I love him but this man is dramatic as fuck I don't give him attention and he pouts or he will make himself know somehow

D: Everytime I drink something even if he's just co conscious he will make it so a little bit gets on the bottom of my mouth why?? Because apparently he finds it hot NO I DON'T KNOW WHY

E: DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY WEIRD POWER INSTANCES I'VE HAD SENSE HE SHOWED UP. When I was writing my book during work during the most intense moment my power went out ONLY MY SECTION THO and a few days ago I come home and all my lights in my room are on no one was in there!??!!

F: I think he forgets he's not in a robot body anymore...yes he has tried to take front to grab something while shopping because "oh I can just climb this no problem" LIKE NO SIR YOU CANT

G: I don't know how one can be a stalker while living in the same body but he manages too!!! I'm shocked he doesn't growl if the air looks at me the wrong way but yeah very protective very stalkerish

H: HANDYS very Handy's fucker will take control of the body just to hug me or mess with my cheeks yes even at work

I: yes he has given me the dumbest problems to solve no I don't know what the constraints for angel between tree - kite is (apparently it's 6.3 repeating his reasoning: you spell our tree and kite in numbers then minus them then devide them by the first letter in sky which is 19 which gives you 6.3 repeating)

It's Systember! Again!

So I was going to make the list look nice like last year but then I got kind of burnt out and realized getting it out on time is more important

Theres somewhat of a theme this year with interconnected prompts! They're designed so that if you miss certain days, you can simply combine them!

Prompt list and questions under the cut

Alone

Co-front

Mirror

Expression

Freedom

Roles

Rainbow

Teeth

Quiet

Loud

Overwhelm

Recovery

Past

Present

Future*

Learning*

Guardian

Affection

Name*

Hope*

Numbers

Community*

Screen

History*

Culture*

Strong

Weak

Hands

Rest

Your choice!

All prompts marked with an asterisk were suggested by @the-fermi-system! Future was already on my first draft of the list, but also happened to be a suggestion.

Questions:

"Do I have to follow the prompts?" Absolutely not, they're just a suggestion. The plural experience is wide and varied, and this challenge hopes to celebrate that. Heck, if you missed a prompt you liked last year, recycle them! This challenge is meant to be fun, not restrictive.

"Can I participate if I'm ____?" This challenge is open to all systems/plurals/multiples, no matter their origins or beliefs. If you share a body with other people in some way, this challenge is open to you. While I can't exactly stop singlets from participating in this challenge, it's not exactly meant for them. That being said, I want no syscourse to interfere with this challenge. We're here to draw, not to argue. (I'm traumagenic but I'm pro-endo, and if that deters you from participating in this challenge, then feel free to not participate.)

"What if I don't draw everyday?" That's fine! Do what you can! You don't have to make fully fleshed out pieces, you don't have to draw every single day, you don't have to participate at all, no one's holding you at gunpoint to draw these. Just have fun to the best of your ability. I did a solid three prompts/two drawings last year and I'm even busier this year with college and a job.

"Can we use these as writing prompts instead?" Of course! I'm a writer too, and ironically I'm taking a creative writing class this semester with a loose focus on exploring identities, so maybe I'll take a shot at writing some of these for class if I get a chance!

oh god this is scarily accurate. like logically i know i did not make gz fucker showed up on the 4th of july while i was at work and went "sup babe" and acts wayyy more confident than me but on the other hand imposter syndrome is like "hmm but what if i'm lying to myself" or "hmm but what if your just puppeting all this" it also dose not help what anti endos say ;-; idk where im going with this just know your not the only one struggling with this-mray

my completely rational thinking of "yes what im experiencing is completely involentary and ive realized i would have no way of purposfully creating a headmate and for myself, that would make me feel just a lil more fake and i would have no way of them existing as their own because i would have created them instead of them just existing on their own and if i could i would like to not experience this at all and just have everyone be normal kintypes"

vs

my imposter syndrome of "but what if im also completely faking all of this and ive just convinced myself theres people in my head when theres not and im just lying to my sweetspark about this and anyone on the internet who has talked to my 'headmates' and none of this is real or im just really really confused and im just talking to my kintypes in my head and just having such strong kinshifts that i feel like a completely different being"

Squipy Is.

Really cute when she's eepy.

Everyone says she's rude when she's.

Tired.

But to me.

It's cute.

The way her eyes just drop subtly.

Gosh her eyes.

I could look at those for hours.

When she's trying to stay awake.

It's cute how sometimes she will.

Just look into space for a moment.

Her mouth slightly agape.

God she's beautiful.

Every moment of her is beautiful.

To think I traveled.

Timelines just to be.

With her.

I get to see these moments.

That others don't appreciate.

Or notice.

I'm honored to share.

A body with her.

"you can't be this, you can't be that..."

WE KNOW ALMOST NOTHING ABOUT SYSTEMHOOD FROM A MEDICAL PERSPECTIVE! Let's stop telling people we don't know what they can and can't experience.
