[ryanyflags]

Hello! Could you combine the lesbian flag and the boyflux flag? The specific lesbian flag I'm talking about is the general community one, the one with the orange to magenta. For the boyflux flag, it should be the most well known one.

I also have another request, but this is optional, and you don't have to accept it, but the combination of librafemine and sapphic? In terms of the sapphic flag, the one with the flower is preferred, and for librafemine, I have no idea if another flag for that exists so you can use the more commonly known one. Thank you very much!!

Lesbian + boyflux, and librafeminine + sapphic combo flags

These aren't really my usual style, since I simplified the colors instead of using every stripe. I just used 3 stripes for lesbian, and half the boyflux flag. I think it works though? Or at least the colors look pretty.

Hope you like it :)

🔪 HEADMATE TEMPLATE 🌲

[Brought to you by: Mods Capriel and Klaus!]

Everett is a gay man whose attitude towards gender is that, because he is a man, everything that makes him feel like himself counts as masculine. He is protective towards the system and is particularly concerned with assuring them of their physical safety. He acts friendly towards others, but he feels very distant towards them. Stab is prone to dissociation and anxiety, including agoraphobia.

✦ Role performance:

Everett is concerned with the system's feelings of physical safety. While they are not often actually physically threatened, Everett concerns himself with making the system feel safe in their current physical space. It also frequently fronts to replace other DPD holders, as well as to do tasks that no one else wants to do. Nature is important to x, and x holds it as an interest.

✦ Personality:

Everett is very distrustful of others, so he keeps them at arm's length and does not want to pursue serious friendships, especially offline. However, it finds value in acting friendly to others and in socializing. It still prefers solitary activities or going places alone, but stab is happy to engage in the system's relationship with their partner system, and stab may befriend or date members of stabs own system.

✦ Identity:

Everett identifies as a man, but not because of any external factors but simply because he feels like he is one. He considers his gender inherently masculine and that anything that makes him feel like himself is masculine. He is a gay man who is attracted to any of the genders he identifies as. However, he has a complicated relationship to the concept of having friends (as he does not find most people trustworthy and, if he truly trusted someone, he would probably feel intensely enough about them to love them romantically) and identifies as aplatonic-spectrum.

✦ Interests and hobbies:

Everett enjoys science fiction and horror, as well as nature. It likes reading books in this genre while visiting local forests. It also likes collecting plushes and taking pictures of the system's plushes, including at said forests.

[These can be edited and changed as needed, and headmates will almost definitely not turn out EXACTLY as described.]

Helloo!!! I would absolutely love a medium C!Awesamdude or C!Ranboo (your choice) w/ memories!!! Thank youu..:3

Name .. Samuel, Skule, Liraz

Pronouns .. he/him, war/warden, creep/creeper

Species .. creeper-centaur

Sexuality .. homosexual, mlm

Gender .. manflux, genderfluid, creeperaex

Source .. C!Awesamdude

Sign-off .. 💣🔱

Roles ..

paranoia holder, protector, caretaker, warden(?)

Personality ..

Samuel strives to exist to keep others safe. He has his own "subsystem" which consists of one fragment (named Tom Nook) that he uses to place out and take care of those needing his immediate attention and assistance. He strives to keep everyone safe, though by doing this he doesn't realise that he may be taking things too far. As I see Sam, he is a paranoid creeper who always thinks one step ahead. He's got a good heart and he will do anything that he deems appropriate to protect the system, and wouldnt you know it, his constant paranoia and overthinking may be useful in accomplishing exactly what he wants. His whole persona is to be big and scary and outwardly he consistently works to keep this image of him, but within the system you'll find someone so gentle.

Appearance ..

He's rather tall, having half his body being somewhat a resemblance of a big canine whilst the upper half being that of a regular human being; sort of like a centaur, but switching out the horse to an canine which matches the height of a horse. The under part of the body is speckled with different shades of green, the pattern of your regular creeper.

Memories ..

He remembers trying to protect everyone, walking through the cold prison corridors to get to the control room.

Him cloning himself in order to be more helpful to those he cares about.

The sizzling sound as he got too emotional, letting out smoke due to his creeper-side.

AN; a bit of a shorter one, simply because I really want to get it out to start working my way through the list (thank you everyone who requested btw!!!). Hope you'll find this useful! -🟥🐶

[gay-questions]

So, Hypothetically (Not really.), what does it mean if you hate certain people calling you she/her, you often forget that you're 'female' at times, constantly looking up when referred to as guys? Like, I thought I was Agender given how I never really felt anything, but maybe it was because I didn't care for the pronouns people used on me.. This prolly makes no sense? But, there was a time I wanted to use the them pronouns most, as they made me feel better, and I've always grown happy when someone uses he/him pronouns on me. I hate being 'female' because of a few things. But when certain people calls me a guy, or something other than a girl, and when they use different pronouns, I feel like myself. I don't understand this.

Firstly, I would like to reassure you that this is normal and totally okay!

I think that there’s a few things you could be. You may be boyflux/manflux/guyflux, which means sometimes you feel more strongly masculine, and then other times you feel a weak sort of masculinity.

You could also be genderfaun, when your gender fluctuates between genders but never female genders.

There’s also a chance that you’re genderfluid, meaning you fluctuate between genders, but you might just not feel female most of the time.

I hope this helped!

[stormy-talks]

I've always told myself my gender does not move. It isn't fluid, it doesn't fluctuate, nothing like that. It always felt so stable. But then some days, I feel more neutrois than male. Then more male than neutrois. I always described this as a seesaw where I'm in the middle, tipping closer and farther from neutrality. It's a sort of... "static" change if that makes sense, because nothing is actually moving anywhere. And that change makes me feel like I am more or less male.

But maybe.... androflux? Maybe that's a thing? (Boyflux is off the table because I'm 35 years old. Manflux sounds weird. Andro was a word I coined as an age-nonspecifc term for people who are male so yeah.)

But also, maybe it just doesn't need a word. I have a lot of labels and at this point, it's a lot of explaining.

Might make a flag for androflux though. Maybe demiandro as well. We'll see.

[ducky-bah]

[our-boyflux-experience]

i want to call myself guyflux / manflux so bad bc i’m boyflux but “boy” sounds so infantilizing to me me personally, but everyone always gets confused when i call myself those

That's so valid tbh. Personally I like boyflux, even though eventually I'll be a man, but I can definitely see how one might feel weird about it. Maybe saying mascflux would be comfy while also being recognizable to others?

[void-galaxy-shenanigans]

We’ve never made (& never planned to make) a pinned post of frequently asked questions (FAQs) or important info but...here we are. After an influx of new people, I think it might be time to make a proper introductory post.

Heads up that this will be long because I don’t want multiple parts. I’ll drop a read-more line after the basic info so you can choose whether to read the rest.

~~

¡Hi! We are the Void Galaxy (that’s a D.I.D. system name). We are a traumagenic system with D.I.D. Welcome to our blog.

We’ll start with basics, go over a lil history, & then have terms, tags, side blogs, rules, & FAQs (in that order).

So here is a masterpost for all of the info that y’all may need on our page.

Note that I’ll elaborate on in rules/boundaries: We don’t mind “spamming” likes & reblogs. It’s completely okay to do so on this blog or our side blogs 💜.

~Nico

~~~

Basics:

Profile Picture (PFP): ¡We didn’t make the art in our PFP! We got it from @nightcatssketchbook 💜

Body’s age: 24 years

Pronouns: he/they collectively, but headmates vary & we’ll attempt to remember to include pronouns with names when someone new posts.

We’re also all for being thrown a curveball (unexpected) pronoun, as long as it’s not she/her (very much doesn’t fit us) or it/its (doesn’t fit us). We may not like every one people use, but as long as it’s used in good faith, we probably won’t mind. Unless it’s a headmate who requests otherwise, or it’s Serenity (who uses they/she, making her the only headmate who still uses she/her at all; they’re open to curveball pronouns except for he/it), most pronouns are fair game. So...¿surprise us?

Gender Identity: We usually say nonbinary-ish man. Our lover offered boyflux / manflux and that’s the best specific label we have.

(We tend to explain our gender day to day very differently. Sometimes queer man, sometimes wizard/sorcerer, sometimes abstract concept, or something genderless/agender. It doesn’t stay still. The only thing we are not (even including Serenity, who is feminine-ish nonbinary)) is a girl.)

¿AGAB?: The biological sex we were accused of at birth is none of your business. We were convicted as a nonbinary-ish man as an adult and that’s what matters.

¿Number of Headmates?: We are polyfragmented and honestly I’ve lost track at this point 😭

¿When did we discover we had D.I.D.?: The journey began with undeniable evidence in early 2019. We were first medically confirmed in June of 2020.

¿Who is fronting for / writing this post?: My name is Nicolás Carriedo, but everyone calls me Nico and I usually tag myself as Nico on this blog. You can usually identify me from español being slipped in to posts, purple emoji hearts 💜, & sometimes ¿? ¡! and other tone tags (others use those sometimes).

I’m an age slider (my age varies from stress), but I’m usually 18 to the body’s age. (Sometimes I’ll be 5 or 7 or 9 or otherwise a little for a bit. (Similar to age regression, except my body in headspace slides to match and I forget everything that happened after that age, and it’s a D.I.D. experience & because I also age regress sometimes.)) As far as roles, I’m a frequent fronter right now, but I’m also a protector and trauma holder.

(Please do nOT call me Nick, I hate it and that’s not my name, & I won’t respond to it. My name is español / de España. I also have two dads and an older brother in system with me.)

~~~

History / where & when this blog began:

This blog began as a reblogging and sneaky backdoor-into-the-internet blog back in 2011 (was not supposed to have Internet or computers, so we used school computer labs and libraries), and became a fandom and shenanigans page back in 2013. In 2019 to 2020, it also became a bit of a healing journey & mental health page as we ended up with undeniable evidence that we were plural and needed a place to vent those feelings and discoveries that our biological (bio) family, and especially our bio parents, would not find.

Now it is becoming a mix of shenanigans and reblogs, and actual advice and knowledge and theories and discoveries, and sometimes a place where we mention or discuss witchcraft and polytheism. (I don’t know when it officially became a blog that people followed for the reassurance and theories and advice, but here we are.)

~~~

Terms:

• Plurality / Multiplicity (noun / adjective): refers to the fact that one brain & body has multiple people in it, whether they have OSDD-1 or D.I.D.

• System(s) (noun): the collective people sharing a brain & body, or identifying as a unit. This can be two people or many. A system is a single group; systems refers to multiple bodies who experience plurality. Some systems also have subsystems, groups within the same body/mind that identify as or are considered somehow separate from the main system.

• Headmates, Headmages, Mindmages, Mindmates, etc. (noun): these refer to the people in a plural system. Each individual person is a headmate, mindmate, etc., including the host(s) &/or gatekeeper(s). The term in the DSM is “alters” but that refers to ‘alternate personalities’, which treats us as facets of a whole, like some monstrous Frankenstein’s monster, that doesn’t actually exist. Headmates/mindmates is akin to calling them roommates (we live together and share a space; we can be friends or family, but can also be strangers who never meet or strictly business partners or acquaintances or etc. & don’t automatically get along, so roommates encompasses all possibilities for us). As for mindmages/headmages, my keyboard auto-corrected to this once and I stared at it and laughed, and started actually using it because I loved the idea of magic & fantasy being interwoven with our existence. The most common term you’ll see us (& some other systems) use is headmates.

• Fronting/Fronted (verb - to front): the act of controlling the body & interacting with the outside world. This can be the person writing/typing, speaking, doing chores, taking care of the body, etc.. For some systems, this is like puppeteering from a distance, and others it’s like a computer or video game console, and there are likely other ways this is represented (all systems are unique).

• Front (noun): the physical/mental place from which we front (verb). This can be a blank space for some systems, or a house, or something more complicated. Our fronting space is currently a room that has computer screens to see outside (3 screens; peripheral vision (2) + central vision), and we control the body via PS3 remote controls like a video game. Sometimes there will be multiple people stealing one remote or passing it around, and sometimes there will be multiple remotes as we share control of the body & voice. There's a city around the building and all the buildings are made of a reddish brown brick. (I have a very vivid imagination so we have a vivid headspace that I built to make the space more comfortable.)

• Co-conscious (co-con) (verb / noun (place)): when a mindmage is conscious of the outside world, near enough to the fronting space to observe what the others are doing, but not in control of the body.

• Co-front(ing) (verb): when two or more headmates front together. There might be a primary fronter with others co-front, close enough to control the body &/or speak, or there may be 2 or more headmates splitting the controls.

• Mindscape, Headspace, Mind Palace, etc. (nouns): the physical place inside our mind where we go when we dissociate. If we dissociate a little we see the fronting space, but if we switch out or dissociate to co-con we can see different parts of it. Some people have a blank space or no visuals, and some have vivid &/or complex headspaces. Our mindscape is complex and vivid.

• Roles: these are the jobs that headmates may be assigned. They describe the tasks that person usually does. This can be a person remembering trauma the other(s) can’t handle (trauma holder), the person protecting the system or a headmate from further trauma (protector, persecutor), the person taking care of the physical body or helping the body cope through heavy emotions or flashbacks (caretaker, caregiver), or more.

@void-galaxys-photos - photos we’ve taken. These are all taken on cell phones (most recently (past 3 years), Samsung Galaxy S8, Samsung Galaxy S21, & Moto One 5G Ace (Motorola)). We often take pictures of nature, especially clouds.

@note-to-self1119 - these are notes we need, directed at our younger self, but they may be helpful for others

@teaquotes48 - these are quotes I’ve found on tea bags when we drink cold/flu tea. Some of those quotes were just worth sharing 🤷‍♂️☺.

@wpffw - this is where we share writing prompts that are quotes or scenes from stories. Two or three are from our creative writing class in high school, two or three are ideas, and we occasionally reblog prompts/quotes, but the rest are quotes & scenes from our own writing. We hoped someone else may benefit from prompts in this style, after we discovered a lot of prompts were too vague or too specific or just...not inspiring or giving us ideas and that we write easier from lines out of books and TikTok videos and songs than we do from those. The blog name stands for Writing Prompts For Fictional Writers. It's a couple years old and has around 170 prompts. Prompts are primarily around fantasy & magic and queer & trans characters, & of course plenty of trauma & comfort trope scenes/quotes, with some exceptions.

FAQs:

Q: ¿What does “medically confirmed” mean?

A: We have not been told if we have a professional diagnosis on paper yet. But we have been openly acknowledged by 3 different licensed medical professionals and repeatedly told to seek a D.I.D. specialist for a professional diagnosis.

~

Q: ¿How did you get medically confirmed 3 times?

A: After a year of therapy (first time around; ended June 2020), our therapist said she “[had] met 26 of [us]” and that she highly recommended we got to a D.I.D. specialist. (We did not know how to find, or have money for, a specialist at the time.) That means a professional confirmed our existence. This happened again with our new therapist (began August 2023), who has already distinctly met 3 of us (me, Lucca, & Serenity). We know because we’re getting more comfortable openly presenting as plural; I usually wear blue (shirt + button up / flannel) with the body’s natural hair, but Lucca wore a wig that looks like his hair in headspace and a green outfit (shirt + flannel) and Serenity (they/she) wore a wig and a dress with a coat over it that covered up our chest (we agreed to let her not bind in the therapy room as long as they wore a coat to hide our chest elsewhere). Our therapist has also encountered (co-conscuious, has spoken aloud but wasn’t fronting) Jack several times, and this week she encountered Wolfe and Sylver for the first time. So that’s two therapists. And lastly, our psychiatrist asked about what the intake person had only noted as “hears voices” (I explicitly called it D.I.D. so that was rude), & I was honest. By the second check-in on meds, she explicitly asked us “who’s fronting today?” (she met me, Nico, before that but I was alone, & that time there were 3 others with me, no clue how she knew) & especially after that session (we were switchy and talking to eachother aloud) she agreed that she saw signs of D.I.D. and that we should seek a specialist when we can. Between all of those, that makes us triple medically confirmed. (Technically our current therapist has an intern shadowing her who has also seen and acknowledged our D.I.D./plurality, but she's not licensed yet.)

~

Q: ¿Do you believe that D.I.D./OSDD-1 has to be professionally diagnosed to be valid?

A: Absolutely not. Access to professional diagnosis is limited and often expensive. It can take up to 15 years (and sometimes several medications) to get the correct diagnosis, and the minimum is usually 3 to 5 years. I do think that self diagnosis should be careful and involve official research papers (using Google Scholar if needed, but preferably using scientific journals if you can access them), because (a) confirmation bias (believing you have something & ignoring any evidence to the contrary) & (b) there are similar disorders that may fit better. There has also been some stigma and misinformation spread on social media (and in movies) to be wary of. But I do believe that most self diagnosed D.I.D./OSDD systems are correct about their own experience and are completely valid.

~

Q: ¿Are there movies or TV shows where I can learn more about D.I.D. or see it represented? ¿Are there ones I should avoid?

A: Yes, if you take them with a grain of salt because they are still dramatized and may contain misinformation or stigma or other biases. Most systems believe Moonknight (a TV show on Netflix) is the current most accurate representation. But as far as avoiding representation, or being cautious to do high levels of misrepresentation or only representing dangerous & negative stories around plurality, please avoid or be careful with The Crowded Room, & Split & Glass.

~

Q: ¿Did you shatter/break as a child? / ¿How did you become plural?

A: (No.) The current most supported theory (supported by evidence with replicable results, but psychology is a newer science and not a hard science so not 100% proven) says that everyone is born with identity fragments. These fragments integrate with a single identity and memory at 9 to 12 years old, in healthy childhood. This creates a multifaceted personality, or the phenomenon of people being a different person with their family vs coworkers vs lovers. When a child forms plurality (D.I.D./OSDD-1), repeated trauma (mixed with severe trauma, or smaller trauma compounding) prevents these fragments from fully integrating their identity, memory, or both. These fragments get separated by amnesia walls (they forget about one another, forget about memories or separate identities or both, & can't access or integrate with one another), which then forces each individual fragment to form its own multifaceted identity. The difference between 1a, 1b, & D.I.D. is the degree of identity separation / distinctly different people and the degree of amnesia (forgetting trauma, day to day events, &/or switches). The identity & memory separation cannot be from religious or cultural experiences (e.g. shamanic practices or religious trances) and has to be persistent (the minimum observation time prior to professional diagnosis is one year). It's usually a covert disorder, but if someone discovers their plurality it can start to reveal itself in more obvious ways.

(Spirit (one of our headmates) actually wants to combine these into one label, something along the lines of ‘traumatic amnesia with plurality’, & (similar to autism) have what is now separate diagnoses be scales under a single label (degrees of identity & memory separation), but unless that happens they are considered three separate and related disorders.)

If you actually read this far, thank you so much, and welcome to our page! 💜

¿What song, band, or playlist saved your life when you were at your lowest?

(¡tell us asks, replies, or reblogs if you want to!)

(My answer: Citizen Soldier (Let It Burn, Would Anyone Care; ICU, You Are Enough), but also sometimes Simple Plan or other bands/songs.)

Genderflux but with a catch: "boyflux" feels too small and "manflux" feels too big.

Could we get someone who helps with our fear of spiders? Masc-leaning, with a colour palette, personality traits, and interests!

Preferably not an anthro spider, but having some spider-like traits is alright!

could we get a medium of any minecraft mob? that gives like.. masculine vibes? everything else is pretty much up to you,

Name .. William / Dain / Kyren / Skule

Pronouns .. he/him it/its voi/void dark/darkness/darkself thon/thons

Species .. Minecraft Warden

Sexuality .. Achillean, asexual, homoromantic

Gender .. Masc-aligned non-binary & manflux

Sign-off .. 🩻🪨

Roles .. Protector (mental & physical) / Violence Holder / Boundary setter

Personality ..

He is an agreeable figure, but also a man of few words. He's blunt and gets straight to the point, but those that claims he isn't polite would be wrong. He likes to have people around him who are comforted by his presence, but this does not stand in the way when he chooses to prioritise himself. He will help the system with putting down boundaries, and if necessary he isn't shy to put up a fight.

Appearance ..

He's somewhat of a bigger build, bordering on 6'8 (203cm) with a lot of mixed muscle and fat making him intimidating, though still relatively small for a warden. His ribcage stays open for the world to see, glowing with the souls he captured. His head has a pair of white bone-like antlers connected to it, whilst the eyes are covered by his hair. He is somewhat more human-like than his fellow warden companions, but staring at him long enough will only confirm his origin as a warden.
