do not let ANY being tell you what trauma is valid and what isn’t.
Stress can be traumatic
Isolation can be traumatic
Toxic friendships can be traumatic
School can be traumatic
Hospital checkups can be traumatic
Moving houses/countries/schools can be traumatic
High expectations can be traumatic
Everybeing experiences things different , what’s traumatic for one being won’t be for another, and that’s ok! Your trauma and experiences are valid <333

Embrace evil alters. Yes, the antagonistic, destructive, angry ones. The ones with horrible fantasies about revenge, the ones who want to powertrip. The ones with manipulative tendencies. There’s a reason they split and exist in the system.
/genq, i don't want this to be an unwelcoming place D:
!! please only vote the last one if you're not followed !!
Giving this to a couple of the Entities when they have time, I’ll leave it in the drafts until at least Ruger has had a chance to answer, and hopefully Shekel, cause those two would like it I think. I’d also love to see Damian respond to get to know him a bit better, but I know technology is not his thing. Not sure if Pitt or Rocky or Grey will be interested but they would be neat as well <3
Ruger:
1. Despite already being an alter, I’m a therian! I have my own human body in the inner world who is a therian. This confuses our host. I find that funny.
2. I’m a Rottweiler!
3. Sometimes I feel more dog like than others, but it’s usually a gradual change.
4. I stress everybody out because I eat a lot when fronting and usually we have trouble with food (but I am always so so hungry and I will always be so so hungry)
5. They seem neat! I don’t front enough to make friends but they’re cool
6. I have a collar with a tag that says beast on one side and whore on the other, and I love it.
7. Nah. We vibing. This is also something that confuses the host.
8. Find what brings you joy.
9. See collar mentioned above
10. I exist as a creature of passion and greed to balance out the system’s prevalent fear of appearing too needy or demanding or excessive.
Shekel:
1. I don’t have any particular association with the body so I don’t use specific terminology. In the inner world I’m an abandoned mutant/laboratory experiment.
2. Types of animals? I’m partially a person and partially a wolf, although some of my features are a bit more horse or dragon like.
3. I don’t shift, although Jay (our host) says I have a very vivid feeling when I switch in and can fuck with his perception of the body if that makes sense?
4. I don’t do much life outside of the inner world so it doesn’t effect me much, but I prefer wearing fur and eating fish when I’m fronting, stuff like that.
5. I don’t engage with strangers, I’m one of the boundary focused alters - others like Rocky love making friends and getting close to people, but some of the others and I have to mitigate that by being inherently suspicious and fast to push people away. In other words, the community looks very nice but I don’t trust anyone enough to engage much.
6. Unironically, werewolf smut is nice and feral and affirming. I also like that the body is used to walking on its toes, the way my legs are built doesn’t translate well to a human shape and being up on the toes is one of the only things that feels right.
7. Always. The body is a foot and a half shorter than I’m supposed to be, it’s the wrong shape, I don’t have fur or claws or ears. The only things that are right is the set of my shoulders and the fact that I’m bipedal.
8. Be fierce, but be kind. Love hard, but don’t force yourself to be tame.
9. My fur vest helps, and we technically have a tail, but I don’t get too dysphoric about the lack of a tail so I don’t usually use it. I want claws.
10. We suspect I’m a knockoff and divergent version of Wolf from The Lunar Chronicles, and while even in the internal world I’m not built to be good at fighting, I’m pretty sure I exist because we felt powerless and needed someone feral enough to protect us.
Pitt:
1. I consider myself nonhuman.
2. I am an angel.
3. I do not shift or change.
4. In the inner world I am blind, so seeing is a challenge when fronting.
5. N/A
6. Having our glasses off helps.
7. Not particularly. I miss my wings when fronting sometimes.
8. I have no advice.
9. No, it wouldn’t be enough.
10. In a way, I have the most religious trauma since I was a part of it, a part of god, and now I am cast aside. I formed so that Jay doesn’t have to feel guilty over what he has been through. He is not alone. I will keep him company.
Grey:
- I don’t know what categories there are. I’m just…. Here, and not remotely human.
- I’m a forest cryptid and my physical form is somewhat close to a wolf with something Wrong with it.
- my form… wavers sometimes, but I don’t know if I’d describe it as a shift.
- I don’t front much, but when I do I’m the second most likely to be nonverbal and the most likely to snarl/snap my teeth/bite anyone who crosses my boundaries (that unfortunately are much stricter than the boundaries of most of the others)
- I know nothing about the community.
- I’m very nocturnal, so I tend to stay up and Lurk in the dark.
- I don’t feel dysphoria. My true corporeal form is unable to fully contain me so it makes sense that this human body can’t either.
- to new alterhumans: if growling is the best way you can express your boundaries in the moment, it is a valid method and it’s not your fault if people don’t understand.
- I don’t need gear.
- long ago there was a boy that was hungry. His teeth grew long and his heart grew inky and his hands grew claws. The forest shoved into his soul, ripping it open and pressing inside. The boy has been hungry so long he cannot feel it - but if you try to take his food from him the wolf he became will shred the flesh off your bones.
Damian:
I don’t know shit about dick so who knows
I’m a demon
I don’t shift
I don’t live everyday life
I didn’t know there was a community
I think hitting someone with my car would feel good but I am not supposed to try that
I have a vivid sense of self but I don’t feel uncomfortable inhabiting this body, my true form overlays it in a way so it’s kind of like a possession and feels perfectly fine
I’m pretty sure any advice I have to give is not something Jay would let me say
It would be fun to have synthetic teeth, but I don’t think anyone could make teeth that actually match my true form
I came from hell to fuck around :)
(So much barking) Rocky!!!
1. Ohhh!!!! There are categories?? That’s awesome!! :D I dunno
2. I’m an Australian shepherd mix!! Not really a therian or anything, I’m just A Doggo :]
3. I don’t shift I just am ^-^
4. Uhhhh idk!!!
5. I LOVE COMMUNITIES BC I LOVE PEOPLE PEOPLE ARE THE BEST
6. Wiggling around and barking and stuff!!
7. … :D … I have never felt a bad feeling in my life!!
8. Hiiiiii I love youuuu
9. I have a collar and a tag with my name on it!!!!!!
10. Uhhhhh I exist to wiggle and bark and love people!!! ^-^

reclusive child with elaborate imagination and maladaptive daydreaming to plural teenager who doesn’t identify with thier own body anymore pipeline is unfortunatelg real
Reminder that if you have ios you can use focus to change the status of who’s fronting as well as link a wallpaper to that focus
(Will provide tutorial if needed)

The sucky thing about being plural and trans is that not everyone inside has figured out my pronouns and some still unintentionally default to feminine terms and she/her pronouns for me and some of the other guys, which just really sucks. I know one or two headmates use she/her pronouns but boy do I want the one caretaker I don’t know well to stop calling me a girl when comforting me :((
Charlie started calling a group of us Boy’s Night when we all co-fronted for like a whole day, it was really fun. Shekel and Pitt are the most useful combo, but the Boy’s Night members (me/Jay, Charlie, Grey, and Seth) were such a good time xP
Me, Taranza, & Something are the fronting combo of all time bc its like Milo (Me): man we should watch spiderman again
Something: and get a cookie
Taranza: please quiet down my fellow gentlemen, for not only are we out of your "cookies," we have also watched every piece of spiderman media available to us.
local forest creature here
i find myself longing for cuddles despite being 7-10 feet tall and
scary
Not super active because plural communities intimidate me (the host, Jay) but trying to be more open so I don’t suppress things Again. No clue how my system formed, but I’m definitely endo supportive.
