How did you discover your plurality, and do you have any tips for someone looking to become an endo?

This ask is phrased in a way where it makes us think you are either misinformed or an anti-endo asking in bad faith. We're going to assume it's the first one. We're going to answer the second part first. (Edit after writing: it turned out way longer than we thought so we're putting a cut here)

First of all: you can't become an endo. You're probably thinking of willo, or willogenic. These are systems that create themselves, whether through imaginary friends or characters accidentally becoming sentient, or through tulpamancy, paromancy or willomancy, all methods of creating a willomate. Tulpamancy as a term is more controversial than the others, as the process was adapted from a Buddhist practice, but we're neither Buddhist nor a tulpamancer so we don't think we really get a say :] while we don't have much experience with that, we do know a few things:

Firstly, there is active and passive forcing. Active forcing is sitting down (or lying down) and visualising your willomate's form, working out the details and such, while passive forcing is more like talking to your willomate while doing other things, like washing the dishes and explaining the process you go through.

Find a guide! Tulpamancy's the most common form of forcing a willomate so you'll find the most guides under that, even if you personally think it's cultural appropriation.

Be consistent in your forcing. Try to do it at least once a day. If you miss a day that's fine, but try to get into the habit. You can even set timers to remind yourself

Be patient. Every willomate takes a different amount of time to develop, and for a beginner it's typically longer. Don't get frustrated when it takes weeks, months, or even years for them to develop.

Understand what it means to have a headmate. It is not like having a roommate, or a pet, or a toy. They are sentient. Your willomate can take on attributes you imagine them with, but most likely they will develop their own personality. If you are not ready to live with another sentient being in your mind 24/7, do not go through this process.

That's all the tips we have, really. So, to answer your first question:

We discovered our plurality through a few things. At the beginning, we actually thought we weren't a system, and were interested in becoming one, so we began the process of creating a willomate! That's how we know those tips :]

While we were scrolling Tumblr looking for more tips, we came across a post of a system answering an ask from someone looking to be a willogenic system. The answer was quite helpful, but then they went on to say that "if you are so interested in becoming a system, it might be you're plural already, and willomancy/tulpamancy is your system's way of subconsciously trying to recognise itself" (paraphrased).

This kind of "got the ball rolling" for us. We started looking into the past and noticing things about ourself that was explained by plurality. It was a slow process at first and we were struggling to identify headmates: at first we thought we were a proxy system, with one frontstuck host and other headmates trying to front, with "me" unconsciously blocking them everytime. As it turned out, we all just had such weak identities that we blended together and couldn't tell each other apart.

We made a post complaining about it and asking if any other systems had any tips we could use to tell ourselves apart, and a very lovely system by the name of exorsysm gave us the tip: "assign each headmate a colour, and see what colour you feel the most strongly" as that pertains to the fronter.

So, we did that, and started off with just 6: Red, Orange, Green, Blue, Purple, and Grey. We added more later, with first Pink, then Yellow and White, then we started adding fictives.

Eventually, after a long time of differentiating ourselves and tracking our fronts and switches (if you want to know how long, probably multiple months), we could identify ourselves well enough to start naming ourselves, doing some picrews and working out appearances, and start filling in Simply Plural's info.

Red became Alizarin, a protector and anger holder, Blue Crescent, our most common fronter (but not the host), Purple Mika, Grey Nimbus, a cassmate. Orange stayed unnamed for longer but we eventually identified Orange as Alpenglow, another protector. Green Pradera, Yellow Helios, a mood booster, and White Inziel, a caretaker.

After that we started either forming or discovering new people, most of them fictives at first, but then we went through a bit of a hard time and formed a couple trauma-holders and protectors, Whimsy and Tazbel. (Neither of them had colour names, although Tazbel started off named "Haha traumaboy" in SP)

Anyway yeah that's a bit more info than just "how did you discover your plurality" but eh. In terms of origin we started off as quoigenic (unknown), then constelgenic (originating from being constelic), then nebugenic (not quite coalescing into one whole personality as a child, sort of drifting and nebulous instead), then just endogenic bc we had no idea, then back to quoigenic, and now we're pretty much sure of adaptive! Though we are looking through origin terms under Adaptive and seeing if one fits. So far there's a couple options but we'll keep them private for now.

Anyway, hope this helps and answers your questions! We also hope you're not an anti-endo making fun of us! :D

🎫 🎼 giv... with eli

🎫 - A song from an artist you two would go to see live as a date.

In my mind Valentine and Eli would go to a Malice Mizer concert, I cannot say one single song because I just associate them to Malice Mizer so much I WILL GO C R A Z Y. I would say Gardenia only because it's the song I associate with them the most...

🎼 - A song that your f/o would write about you (or vice versa!).

You know how I said Malice Mizer right? I totally believe Eli would do this with Aprés-midi by Malice Mizer... it's one of my favorite songs from them and it's so sweet and loving and and and.... Imagine Eli holding Valentine's hand while singing so softly... WAAA

❛  i hardly need a spellbook for that.  ❜

This kinda made him chuckle, thinking this is kinda cute that the bard didn't need the spellbook to learn the spell, by all means he was surprised. " Really? I guess I can't teach you that one can I? " He asked as he nodded, taking a step back. " If you want, you can show me. " He said in a soft tone, watching her quietly and seeing what she can do.

Hey, it's darumi-amemiya!! Can't reply to your Darumi theory post for some reason and it's a sideblog so!

Genuinely I felt the same way seeing them!! I was like "They're either already related and just not mentioning it, or they're gonna get really close in the span of just a few days. They 100% kill eachother to fulfill the mutual bloodlust thing!"

DARUMI AMEMIYA IN MY ASKBOX HOLY SHIT (<- I didn’t read the dash at first. this was still a valid reaction)

I need darumi and yugamu to be besties or kiss. or hate each other because they’re too similar. they gotta have something. they’re set up too much already to not have some important dynamic. oh please kodaka don’t be baiting me

I WANT EM TO KILL EACH OTHERRRR and actually they might. because todays login bonus was interesting

we already saw fish head darumi and now the new fish head is interesting. what makes me think yugamu did it is that he apparently knows the exact kind of fish. also he’s just definitely freaky and the most likely suspect for mass murder. so basically I think he used his pharmaceutical knowledge to somehow turn everyone into fish and then murder them. this game is peak

Hello there, Welcome to the 4 tribes of the Arch Crystal 💎

you might have not heard of me, so let me introduce myself. I am Dr. Esposito and I’m a scientist solo-studying the beauty of the fae-wild. That’s all I’m going to say about myself for anonymity reasons (I’m already in hot water with multiple governments) but I’m more than willing to share my experiences and stories with all of you~Dr. Esposito March/1/1968

{this is a Clan-gen style ask blog and one I’ve been working for a while now and really want to share with the rest of tumblr. I’m using the free version because my laptop wasn’t compatible with the full version :( but hopefully I can still make an interesting story with it}-🩵🧚

im suspecting i might be plural and i just wanted to ask,

does plurality affect your life? i (or we hehe) personally struggle socially because of a weak sense of unified identity and wondered if this is common

Thanks for your question! (Apparently we're turning into an education blog lmao /nm, we loooove talking about our system :D)

So, us personally, we're non-disordered. Specifically, the criteria we don't hit is that being plural "negatively affects our life in one or more major areas" (as is the requirement for literally anything being a disorder lol)

So, we're not negatively impacted by it. That doesn't mean it doesn't affect us in other ways! Primarily, we actually function better because of our plurality!

For instance: due to some things like BPD etc, we have many risk factors for addiction. To prevent us from developing any, one of our headmates, Alizarin, comes into front whenever people start talking about anything typically addictive, like alcohol, and basically removes us from the conversation to protect us :]

Another one, Whimsy (who's here as we're writing this), is what's known as a "guzzler" or "sustainer", and fronts to eat, as without shyr we risk forgetting or putting it off because of executive dysfunction.

Struggling socially seems like it would be a very common thing. We only struggle socially because we're autistic, but we do have troubles with talking when some headmates who are less inclined towards social interaction front. This has led to some awkward interactions, like when we completely brushed an acquaintance off because we weren't confident we'd be able to speak to him.

Overall, our plurality is a huge positive in our life, mostly affecting us in good ways! Though there's always. whatever the opposite of a silver lining is. A grey lining. Because it might be good but there's still some bad aspects :] we'll never pursue final fusion though. Props to any plural that does though!!

Hopefully this answered your question :] good luck on figuring out if you're plural anon!!!

hELP WHO IS RUNNING THE RENEE STAN ACC, IVE LOOKED THROUGH LIKE ALMOST EVERYTHING, IVE MADE VERY LITERAL DIAGRAMS TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT, HAVE I JUST MISSED IT

this is so old I’m so sorry but I’m bored so here I am. the truth is the big neil simp account is matt and jeremy (going by the very inventive name ‘mj’) that started after their chats just included them gushing about how lovely neil is and they’re also members of the ‘happy himbo club’ group chat with nicky where they talk about what a ‘funky lil dude’ neil is and how much they love their partners. (dan, erik and jean have a chat called ‘himbo partner support line’ where they discuss the dumb questions they’ve been asked and talk about the sweet things their partners do for them in a much more low-key way)

unfortunately for this ask, the renee stan account was just a stan and I’m so sorry to ruin the vibe 😭 either that, or the renee stan account is actually me because I love women and every woman in those books is a goddess (except thea because she’s not real)

🍄 for the ask game!

🍄 share a head canon for one of your favorite ships or pairings.

Head canon... I'm not so sure what headcanons are, but if I correctly understand the concept... I guess I have several, but right now I can only remember one. ^^

Of course is Megatron/Soundwave for I'm chronically ill.☠️

I think I should warn you is a spicy one.

They're sexless creatures but are into feti....shh....ism like B ⛓️ ...D🧤.. S...🔪... M 🐕‍🦺 regardless, because of the symbolism and parafernalia. It's a way of interaction between them that very much suit their natures, adequate to the kind of hard, slightly cold way in which they treat each other, but actually deep and inherently trusting. It allows contact that is not bounded by kindness or sweetness alone, since I'm not sailing with the flag that they're the most schmaltzy lovers in the universe. It's, on the contrary, demanding. It also involves worshiping and a string of practices that would appeal to Megatron's insatiable nature, and could be adapted to not gen-1-tal sensorial stimulus, since they don't have that.

Hopefully this is understandable enough (I have to censor everything slightly "too adult" otherwise my posts end into exile).

Thanks for the ask!
