in a similar vein to the comfal system, we have the aberration system. still working on a good name for it...

we wanna combine like a root word for light or healing or comfort into it...but it's hard to combine things into aberration. the best we have right now is 'caeru aberration' or 'aberracaeru'

idk. thoughts?

so anyway the aberration system is based around healing and recovery from self-harm. for us, it comes from dermatophagia, dermatillomania, and uh. also self-harm in general

the idea is the thing the aberration is based on helps one to heal and recover. this can be because it brings feelings of comfort, or it distracts from urges to harm, or it's a healthy alternative, or anything else like that

for example: a rabbit aberration would mean that rabbits are tied into this healing in some way. maybe you have a rabbit and the desire to care for it helps you resist urges to harm yourself. or thinking about rabbits brings you feelings of comfort. or squeezing a rabbit plushie or messing with a rabbit fidget toy helps as an alternative to harming yourself

that's pretty much what the idea is

have flag

okay have nice day now

[isopodabyss]

been a minute

had an idea, so here's a post for that

if you're like us, you are way too interested in gravity falls

so here's a system of self-identifiers entirely based on gravity falls. can be used as genders but are not coined with that in mind. meant to focus on experiences of self, basically. if that means genders for you, then feel free to use them as such! we've got masc/fem/neu/null ones, we've got alterhuman ones, we've got system ones, all sorts.

^ Asterfallian, this one is based off of dipper pines. this is the masc equivalent for the system. name comes from 'asterism' and 'fall-ian'.

^ Cometfallian, mabel pines. the fem equivalent for the system. name comes from 'comet' and 'fall-ian'.

^ mackerelfallian, stan pines. a multi equivalent, left vague on purpose so one can identify with it in any way they choose. names comes from 'mackerel' (a common fan nickname for stan) and 'fall-ian'

^ sixfallian, ford pines. the null/neu equivalent. could be neutral, could be a complete lack of anything, could be a mix of the two. again, left vague so one can identify in any way they choose. name comes from 'six' and 'fall-ian'.

^ axofallian, the axolotl. for those whose experience cannot be described just with masc, fem, neu, null, etc. examples of what this could mean: a xenic equivalent, for those whose experience is different due to being alterhuman, for systems whose members identify differently (as major or subtle as these differences may be), etc. name comes from 'axolotl' and 'fall-ian'.

^ nightrealmian, the nightmare realm. for alterhumans of any kind. alternative to dreamrealmian. name comes from 'nightmare realm' and '-ian'.

^ dreamrealmian, the dream realm (made up name for the realm the axolotl resides in). for alterhumans of any kind. an alternative to nightrealmian, so folks aren't stuck with just 'the nightmare realm' or just 'the dream realm'. name comes from 'dream realm' and '-ian'.

^ riftian, the multiverse. for systems of any kind. name comes from 'rift' and '-ian'.

^ anomfallian, the anomalies of gravity falls. for those that feel outcast in any way. name comes from 'anomaly' and 'fall-ian'. (for context, a large part of gravity falls is learning to embrace and appreciate differences. we felt the anomalies of gravity falls were a good way to represent this)

^ scampfirian, the scampfires. for those whose true body/form does not line up with a human body. one can be mostly human or have a human form in a nonhuman way and still identify with this. we'll be honest, we just chose scampfires for this one because they're our favorites. the scampfires are living campfires, with the wood logs forming their legs. name comes from 'scampfire' and '-ian'.

^ geoditian, the geodites. for those who are disabled in any way. the geodites are little living geodes that give off faint light and melodies. we thought they might fit the role for this well! they're hardy and tough and can provide comfort in darker moments. name comes from 'geodite' and '-ian'.

^ gravityfallian, gravity falls. for those who identify with the system and/or gravity falls in any way, but don't care to identify with any of the specific labels here. name comes from 'gravity' and 'fall-ian'

the idea of all of these is that they're for folks that want to incorporate gravity falls into how they describe themselves and/or just like the terms/flags. as for names for the system, we're thinking maybe 'the fallian system'?

we had an idea so. why not become semi-active and start coining a bit?

specifically, we're going to focus on this sort of umbrella label we've created. we hope you all enjoy it!

Comfal, from comfort and mental! a comfal is something you identify with, in any way, due to it helping you with mental struggles (broad on purpose! feel free to send an ask if you'd like clarification ^^)

a plurcomfal is a comfal that every alter/headmates/sysbling/(any other term you prefer!) identifies with! this can be for a variety of reasons, it's up to you all!

this help could be comforting you, helping you cope, helping you heal/recover, helping you relieve harmful (either to yourself or others) urges and/or compulsions without acting on those urges and/or compulsions, being something you feel you can relate to in any way, and anything else! as long it's helpful to you and doesn't hurt you, it can count!

flag here:

for us, personally, the asterism cetus is a huge source of comfort to us, especially in regards to our mental illness. for that reason, the flag's icon is a little whale with stars! this icon doesn't have to be in other comfal flags, go wild on flag designs!

speaking of, anyone is absolutely free to coin their own comfals! please tag us if you do, we would love love love love that so much!

there's no specific way to name comfal coinings! you can do "(blank) comfal", combine comfal into the name, or even leave it out of the name entirely! we'll be doing a mix of the first two in our posts!
