Fictive Positivity
- If you view your source character as inseperably *you*, that's okay and normal.
- If you view your source character as a template that your identity is based on, that's okay and normal.
- If your identity adapts to changes in your source, that's okay and normal.
- If your identity is rigid and changes to your source are upsetting, that's okay and normal.
*All ways of experiencing fictivehood are okay and normal!*
---
- If fandom activity is upsetting to you, your feelings are valid.
- If canon events are upsetting to you, your feelings are valid.
- If certain ships, or maybe all of them, are upsetting to you, your feelings are valid.
- If your exomemories are associated with the body's trauma, your feelings are valid.
- If your exomemories have nothing to do with any trauma, your feelings are valid.
- If you don't have any exomemories, you are valid.
*You and your feelings are valid!*

[No DNI for this post, as positivity is for everyone. Just please do not bring syscourse into the notes.]

A disordered traumagenic system runs this account btw.
Just in case anyone was wondering ♡
This traumagenic system loves and supports endogenic systems, and all forms of non-traumagenic systems.
We wouldn’t have had our own syscovery if not for y’all. We’re not as dissimilar as others try to lead us to believe.

if there isn’t one already, could you make a flag for traumagenic systems who are pro-endo? i’m tired of all the traumagenic spaces being anti-endo, and want a flag to scare away the anti-endos
yes, sure!
Tumblr media
mmh, a traumagenincusive flag, with colors from both the endogenic and @/headmatesfaq 's traumagenic flag. i hope you enjoy.

what does quoigenic mean
It can mean several things if I remember correctly.
1) You don't want to disclose your system origin.
2) You don't know what it is.
3) You have multiple origins.

that plural feeling of someone asking who’s fronting and thinking “wait who AM I” and half the time just saying your the host cause it’s simpler
Yeah same

So like, just an idea (and we might make an actual, official coining post later?) but we thought of a new tag to use alongside traumageninclusive
OSDDIDinclusive
We love traumageninclusive as a traumagenic system, and love that it implies openness for use by nondisordered traumagenic systems, so we wanted to make a tag that was for disordered systems (traumagenic or not) to use to show inclusiveness too.
This was also made in part due to the severe conflation between disordered and anti-endo. We have DID and we’re pro-endo, so this is how we want to show it!

we're wondering how common it is for persectors to also be littles?
we've had two persecutors in our system and both were under 10 but its not something we see discussed which makes us think our experience may be different then average.

How switches work for us + other weird system things
I made a diagram to help explain.
Tumblr media
Basically, there's one main consciousness that controls fronting. It can be occupied by any of us, and sometimes more than one at a time. Rowan rarely leaves this part of the brain, letting people control it next to them instead. The metaphorical "core part" we refer to (sort of jokingly) as "the brain" resides just above this space. When someone is co-con it's easier to hear them and they often influence the fronter in certain ways, like voice changes or jokes. The current front may see them nearby in the headspace. But they can't control the body.
A headmate switching into the front can be a lot of different experiences for us. The main consciousness taking on a different identity is how we usually describe it, and a good visualization is the new fronter coming up behind the current one and swapping bodies with them. Sometimes there's blending, sometimes there isn't.
In the backspace/inner headspace we just kind of, exist. Anyone can interact with the front from here, but not with each other unless both are co-con, as far as we know. Nobody can remember being in the headspace when they front so far.
We don't have a stable member count, and I've explained this by describing our process of forming headmates as "A thick, bubbling liquid, where new bubbles form and may stay a while or pop/reintegrate with the mass. Sometimes the bubbles are fully removed from the liquid but even those may float back into it at some point. Bubbles that disappeared might return someday, but it's impossible to know."

To all fictives, factives, and introjects...
If you struggle with discomfort with doubles who are different from you, or with your source being different, that is an understandable reaction - someone who looks like you, has the same name, maybe even acts like you, having such fundamental differences can be startling, and if you have had issues with your identity, it may even feel threatening to you.
That being said, it is very unpleasant, especially if your system is active in your source's fandom or if you've been looking for sourcemates. It can also be very inconvenient. I really struggle with this. I avoid the "me" side of fandom, and I mute servers that have doubles in them, even though I feel I really ought to be more comfortable with them.
With all this in mind, here are some things that may help you.
You are you, and nobody else can change that.
If your existence is spiritual/metaphysical in nature, remember that there are infinite universes in which anything can happen.
If your existence is psychological in nature, different systems have different interpretations of characters, and that absolutely can affect what traits they were introjected with.
While I do not agree with 'you are not your source, you are a psychological construct made for [x] purpose', I do think it is healthy to have some degree of source separation, if possible. If it does not work for you, then it does not work for you, but I think it helps to be able to look at your source character/person and say "That is not exactly me, but I am a lot like them." Perhaps even, "That is the template from which I was created".
Most importantly: you are you, and nobody else can change that.
The most useful part of the post is over, but I have included some personal anecdotes below the cut if anybody is interested.
Let us look at two cases of this from our system - Hunter and myself.
Hunter is sourced from The Owl House. He is very strongly aroace and was incredibly uncomfortable when a new popular ship involving him and another character arose. It quickly became one of the "default" ships of the fandom, almost as popular as Lumity. He stayed around, but did not go anywhere near front very often. Recently, though, we have been able to contact him in our headspace. He now has antlers, and is now living his life as a forest elf, instead of what he was before. In his case, he found it helpful to distance himself strongly from canon. He is who he is, and he embraced new aspects of himself so he could feel more like himself. Because of how extreme his reaction was, we have stopped watching the Owl House and stopped engaging with the fandom, but we are still taking steps to help him distance himself. He seems to be doing quite well now!
Now, for myself. In canon, my source character is a presumably cisgender man using he/him pronouns. The way I am was actually affected by fandom - I am fairly sure that the amount of nonbinary headcanons influenced my gender as I formed. There are a great deal of headcanons and ships involving my source character, most of which I do not follow. I am a human, not a Zoroark, and I did not have any romantic relationships. I have found it hard to accept that just as character interpretations influenced my gender, different character interpretations have influenced other aspects of those with the same source character. There is a primal negative reaction when I see someone who looks like me, and has the same name as me, with similar aesthetics, who is very much not me despite everything. It is something I hope to lessen, and eventually get over. (In all honesty, I am mostly writing this post for my own sake.)
Separation is hard, and does not come naturally to us. We, as fictives of Team Sieben, are not the types who can read fanfiction and headcanons while feeling fine and unthreatened by other people perceiving us in a way we do not control. I wrote this post in hopes to build that skill. Maybe I will never be able to post art of myself and label it as 'fanart' without feeling nervous and wrong, but I hope I will at least be able to engage with fictives who are different interpretations and different versions of my source character.

Hi all,
We are @system-of-clouds and this is our sideblog for plural terms.
This blog is our way of documenting the terms that we learn about and sharing them with others. We’d be happy to help find terms or answer any questions, our asks are open and anon should be on. This blog is for sharing information about systems. If we make a mistake please let us know.
This blog is not for syscourse. That said, we are a traumagenic system and we are pro-endo/pro-nontraumagenic.

Hey, tulpas:
Concentrated thought and replying to mindvoices is not culturally appropriative.
It’s something we do naturally, even.
Something a human brain naturally does can never be culturally appropriative; we all have the potential.
You have the right to exist like everyone else.

Anyone have any easy birthday ideas for headmates? Church’s birthday is tomorrow, and it wants to celebrate but not anything that requires actually doing much.
