Two Sentence Horror Story (warning Very Scary 😰😱😨)

Plurality

Host: *plays cool game once* That was fun

Fictive from said game: Yeah it wa-

Host: AAAAH

sometimes being plural is comforting each other during our hardest moments,

and other times its a passionate argument over question of "what is the biggest rock in the solar system?" that ends with the conclusion that the earth is a cream egg.

host culture is being tired of people seeing you as the "real" one

Honestly I love super niche origin terms. The why and how you exist is something that can be super duper important to someone – just look at how many religions try to answer that question about the human species or individual people, as well as all the philosophical debate about the meaning of life, or even just the personal family stories of why someone's parents decided to have/keep them – and it's no surprise that we (plurals and headmates in general) like to answer this question for ourselves when we have such unique paths and causes for existence. I just finally figured out how to put into words my own reason for existence and I'm really happy about that! I hope all headmates out there who are struggling with "why do I exist" are able to find a satisfactory answer too, whether that means you find a specific origin term that fits you, you coin your own term, or you decide to forgo origin terms and describe yourself in a freestyle way. You're not alone in searching for answers – not in this community, and not in general, either. A lot of folks out there are asking the same questions you are.

In the next 20 years, I would like it to become normal for parents to treat their child's imaginary friends as if they have the potential to be headmates.

Treat them like people and let both the imaginary friend and the host child know that it's okay for them to be there.

Maybe the imaginary friends go away. Maybe they fuse. But they shouldn't be pressured into anything. If they can think for themselves then they're real and should be treated as part of the family as long as they're there.

If the imaginary friends do stick around, then it just means you get to have multiple children with the upkeep costs of one. 😁

You have to further the plural agenda

I have a small team of people working on this as it turns out

I've always been scared of the future (still am), but being a part of a system really helps with that fear. I know that even if things change or get hard to deal with, I'll always have the people in my head to help support me and help share the weight of it all.
