GunsN'Rosesbased / GNRbased Flags. "GunsN'Rosesbased (or GNRbased) refers to a headmate, sisasystem, or system that has a structure based in the 1985 hard rock band Guns N' Roses. This label is not inherently an origin. It means Guns N' Roses could affect headmates, their roles, functions, or other parts of how the system functions. GunsN'Rosesbased systems may be heavy in music-related introjects as well."

Hey, system originals and hosts--or whatever word you'd use. And anyone else who needs to hear it.

It's ok if you want to put your headmates first, before even IRL connections you have. It's not wrong. You're not "cringe". You're not evil or selfish or "worsening your condition" by default. You share your body with your headmates. Whether you view them as parts of your'self' or not, you share a singular form you all have to coexist inside of. People outside your body shouldn't get a say as to what you do with it.

It's ok if you want to do things for them that you wouldn't otherwise do with your life. It's ok if you need to make compromises together about what path you wanna take, and change up some life plans until you can all agree or at least be okay with them. It's ok if the closest connections to anyone you have are those within your own body. It's ok to not want to be close to people unless they accept everyone in your system.

You're not anti-recovery. You're not "giving up" your body to some evil parasite. You're not "throwing your life away because of an illness". You're not bad if you "make everything about your system" because those people are a part of your life as much as any other friend or partner or coworker, you should be able to talk about them.

If you want to make decisions about your body as a collective, please do. You can live a happy and fulfilling life, connected closely with your headmates and all being happy together. It doesn't have to be a struggle 24/7. There will be good days, there will be bad. You won't always agree easily. Things can be difficult, but you aren't wrong for wanting your system to be as big of a part in your life as you yourself are.

Inspibase

Pt: Inspibase :end pt

When a headmate is inspired by something or someone (likely while or around the time of forming, but does not have to be) in a way that they aren't that thing or individual but still feel connected to it.

Some non exclusive examples of this are,

A headmate that formed while the plural unit was fixated on FNAF, causing the headmate to be inspired by William afton, but not be him

A headmate of an original character that was inspired or influenced by pre-existing character or similar.

A headmate that first formed as a fictive that has since gotten to a (self determined) point where they feel that now the character only inspired them and who they are.

Feel free to use this flag as a template for terms under this, or to make your own template.

Mentions / tags: @radiomogai, @sys-terms, @system-term-archive, @plurchive, @pluralitywords, @rwuffles, @smilepilled

Banner transcript: This term was made by an Endogenic. Anyone can use it however (So don't repost or recoin, ask before adding to wikis) :End Transcript

Written flag id under the cut, same as alt text.

Flag id: a rectangular flag with a desaturated teal background. on the left and right sides of the flag, there are isosceles triangles which overlap with each other, the overlap being coloured reddish brown. the triangles are split evenly in half horizontally; the left triangle is yellow on the top and light orange on the bottom and the right triangle is red on the top on the top and reddish orange on the bottom. behind the triangles there are two similar triangles, this time on the top and bottom, being behind the other two triangles. The triangles are split evenly in half vertically; the top triangle is red on the left, and yellow on the right, and the bottom triangle is reddish orange, and light orange on the right. :end id

i had a headmate that would generally like. encourage me to be nice to myself/take care of myself a while ago but i habvent seen them in like forever so i guess im doing this shit alone huh . mental disorder that developed as a 'coping strategy' not actually helping me cope at all. fork found in kitchen

#i guess my friends also serve this function #but also i miss this headmate idk. i mean i know theyre kinda just me and my own brain & not a whole real guy #but still #also i feel my plurality is more confusing/distressing when theres less distinction of seperate headmates/facets/etc.#cause its harder to know when the fuck im a different guy so its harder to deal with #and thats basically how its been all the time recently its a bit annoying #sighsss. whatever. anyways #awoo

known we were a system for about 7 years now, probably been a system for far longer, and just realised. we got an intrusive self-fakeclaiming thought today and laughed it away

#it does get better it does get easier eventually you will not fear being wrong or out of place #the thought felt like it just rolled away like a little creek washing over stones #it used to be a tsunami size wave that would throw us around and leave us feeling like we're not fitting in or even in the right place #and now we're just. solid and sturdy and the water's calmed to a tiny trickle #this is the first self-fakeclaiming thought we've had in i think months #and honestly probably only brought on by very new system members not being used to being alone in front #(it's rare for us. we're almost always cofronting. but sometimes it happens and it's so jarring)#rejecting the idea that we could possibly be faking this gives us this massive sense of wholeness like. this is who we are. and it's right #it feels right it feels like. we're real again. we're healing and able to learn. we're doing better. we feel whole like this #sharing this body with a million others will only ever bring us joy this is home this is love this is healing this is right #i love being plural #i love having a system #i love my headmates #we're so so close to hitting our real milestone of being functionally multiple #our challenge kinda. the goal we have to say Yes we feel we have functional multiplicity now #is to just. be able to connect all the sidesystems and have dormant people come back now and then and recover lost headmates #(TOBY WE *WILL* FIND YOU EVENTUALLY)#and it's starting! we've discovered people from BEFORE the syscovery we've brought back Blank and Ro multiple times #we talked to Bee once!!!! Bee literally hasn't fronted since fucking 2020!!! AND BEATRICE CAME BACK AND SHE'S TALL NOW??#and Siren came back!!!!!!! he was so so so fucking scared of falling out of the front rotation bc he thought he'd be lost forever but!!!!!#system wise i cannot believe how far we've come EVERYONE can feel the difference Ro and Blank get shocked by how much more cohesive we are #they were used to a constantly terrified proxy host and gatekeepers that loved to section stuff off and no communication #now it's like walking into a real place for them. they aren't used to headspace being this solid #when we started out WE DIDN'T HAVE ONE we had to manually build it and it took so long and so much focus #now it's as easy as closing our eyes #god i fucking love this im so happy right now

Idiot system culture is having people in the fronting room to help with homework even though you all share memories. So if I don’t know they don’t know

.

#plural culture #actuallyplural #plurality #plural system #anonymous #i mean same but it's for executive function reasons #or something like that cuz some headmates enjoy a subject more so they can focus better on it

Our scries for our random fathoms (we got SO lucky with the girl, the boy was a bit harder to scry but I like his tropical colors)

And our anniversary hatch, who we just knew would make a great fathom. We wanted to do glowtail since it made her tail look like a big piece of kelp, but... we're already spending gems on the yellow one so we need to stop somewhere.

And also with this new breed, I'm changing my plans for my Flight Rising version of me. I guess this counts as a fandragon since I'm a fictive?

Image reference:

-Tsunami (she/her)

#flight rising #fr fathom #fr scries #fr fandragon #Tsunami post #Not gonna tag this with my source bc I feel like people scrolling that tag will be confused #Since they'll see the flight rising stuff before getting to the relevant fandom stuff #Making our headmates in Flight Rising is our system tradition #So although we don't consider our fictives' dragons 'fandragons' per se #We don't really mind the term since they are functionally the same

Something weirdly specific for at least some of us, that we've had in mind for awhile; unfortunately this was the closest we could get with a picrew tbh.

× × × || × × × || × × ×

Like, fortunately for us; while we have some things that irk us with this one, but this hits pretty close in a metaphorical sense at least for the people we're thinking of. Unfortunately for us, some of those are more obvious than others so we hesitated on weather we needed to share this or not LOL.

#stimboard #cn // highly personal #highly personal #GOD THAT PINK IN THE BACKGROUND. SO THREATENING.#THAT “SHE KNOWS” THING A MONTH BACK IN THE GAME SESSION. // OC-related tangent in the tags incoming #(<- hits differently in some situations)#(<- *stares at the plural OCs who we made an entire past for.*)#(<- *stares at the fact their whole thing is. dysphoria made them plural. and THEN they became functionally immortal.*)#(<- you don't skip town for no reason. they lived in a generation where being both would throw them in The Loony Bin)#(<- but only the QUEERNESS became more acceptable later on.)#(<- these bozos are a mirror to our own life and frustration. and that realistically. people are starting to accept endogenics to a degree.#(<- but the world we want and how endos are treated is NOT going to happen next yer. it MIGHT happen in like 20 years.)#(<- “she knows” has been and always will be our greatest fear and pushing through that is HARD.)#(<- So what would it look like INSTEAD to be hiding under queerness. which is still stigmatized as hell)#(<- but you can AT LEAST find a margin of community somewhere that isn't full of abusers and bootlickers/idenity-medicalists for that ID)#NONE OF THIS IS NEGATIVE we're actually kind of glad the GM saw the full implications of that even implicitly -#- getting the shivers just remembering that. But also it's interesting to implement that onto their younger singletsona lmao.#WERE SO PISSED THO THAT WE COULDNT FIND A GREYSCALE MASK THAT WASNT. HORROR OR PARTY. THESE FUCKERS ARE NOT VILLAINS YNKOW.#like how the fuck do we have a hoard of gifs in our tumblr likes and found NOTHING for that specifically lolsob?#yes these ARE the same two chucklefucks we blabbed on and on about for like a week on our main account.#but its their “singletsona”. kind of. kind of sort of. we have wholeass ideas on this narratively.#like we just need to WRITE as in actually write but the issue is every time we do we hit A Wall(tm)#but yeah. anyways. we have headmates playing a TTRPG and we may have projected our frustrations onto two OCs that we don't even play. 😭😭😭

My existence is a trauma response and I think that shows

#do i have a personality disorder or am i the personality disorder #no but like. the way i act makes a lot more sense when you know why i exist and how i was for the first years #we can all be glad. you didn't know me back then. because i was so much worse and barely self aware #like. i do tend to look at my headmates who deal with this much better and how they do it. but that's just because i see them from an #outside perspective and myself from inside. i don't doubt some of them are just good at hiding their issues by taking care of others #but i'm really not a caring person. nor do i think i'd be good at it. and no one is expecting me to be that #like. we're a big. mostly functioning. partially traumagenic system. of course we have headmates who are good at emotional support #and headmates who. i dunno. do other stuff #if you asked my headmates what positives i bring to our system. they would give you so many cheesy answers #or focus on the fact that when i formed. i did have a protective function that just isn't needed in that form anymore #which i mean. yeah. i guess #-lutz

we have taken 4 naps today AND i’m still in bed from the latest one. we are so fucking tired today. and then front also wants someone who explicitly said it’s going to take a break from fronting for a few days?? which is weird as hell because usually when front wants someone this bad, it wants me, but no it’s still trying to pull someone else to front

#‘Cecil aren’t you the front’ yes but in the same way that you are your liver #sure the front is me and i’m the front but also: that thing does what it wants #we have several headmates who are and embody a system function. like our brain or our consciousness or our subconscious or our body #and i’m our front. which is. the context for you. sorry i’m so fucking tired #Cecil's tag #rambling
