The Bean Pot

We're a DID System of quite a lot. We happen to have a lot of fictives due to our childhood coping mechanisms. Drop us an ask if you're curious about us!

[ablunderofbeans]

Hello, Tumblr! We're A Blunder of Beans, also known in some circles as just Beans or Yarnabeans. We're a fictive-heavy DID system of around 95 members, though many are not currently very active.

We made this Tumblr as a space to share fun art of ourselves, and for people to ask us questions, either as a system or to individual alters. Please note, asks that are disrespectful or insulting will be ignored, the same for comments of that nature. We're not afraid to use the block button.

Some things to note: we prefer the terms "alter," "member," or "headmate" for referencing ourselves. There is also no "core personality," or anything of that nature, or an "original." We have Hosts, who manage the majority of our day to day activities. Finally, introjects are not their sources! We have some members whose source character is considered "evil" or a villain. This does not apply to the alter, so please don't treat them that way.

Alters currently willing to answer asks:

- The Doctor, aka "Doc" and Yarnaby

- Pax

- Sorana

- CatNap

- Poe

- Boris

- Naum

- Zyvko

- Nolan

- Dalzell

- Murderbot

- Husk

- Asmodeus and Fizzerolli

- Loona and Octavia

- Beelzebub aka "Bee"

- N

- Dustoff

- Hati

I dont know if Husk is interested in others from hazbin hotel but waving! Your blog came on our feed and it showed me the post of art of him! The grandpa comment made me laugh

🕷🎤

So, if you'd like to chat, you can always send us a message. We don't mind. -Husk

Yes! It's rather exciting and invigorating to meet others like us! -Sir Pentious

What was your version of Elliot like, Doc? If you're OK with this question that is

There is really not much more for me to say about him. -Doc

[ablunderofbeans]

We woke up Huggy and Kissy the other day (they've been dormant for over a year), and before we could tell Huggy that Doc is cool, this happened, roughly. - Pax

[ablunderofbeans]

Found an old silly drawing I did of Doc wearing a ferret onesie that I never actually finished. So, I finished it! -Pax

I can't believe he actually dug this one up. Or, perhaps I can. He's been going through his gallery lately. -Doc

[ablunderofbeans]

So, while seeing who it might be safe to awaken from a mass dormancy we needed to put most of the system into, we came across someone who'd apparently gotten missed (the Night Surgeon). This then made us realize we technically have three doctors in the system with high body counts. Then, we realized that the shorter they get, the higher the body count.

So, here they are!

[ablunderofbeans]

For Doc: Do you assign human pronouns to experiments based on how you like them? Canon Harley started calling Quinn "him" and then called Yarnaby "it" at first, and then called Yarnaby "he" again during the Doctor Q&A

Harley seems to use human pronouns for the experiments most of the time, except uses "it" on experiments he doesn't like

The experiments are a strange area for me. They are not quite people, not animals, and while I used children to make them, I do not view them in the same way I view children. -Doc

[ablunderofbeans]

when did you guys find out or first suspect you were a system

We're finally back with more ask responses. This one was rather tricky for us to answer, just because of how much went on before we realized it. We suspected for much longer, but that's a story we're not comfortable sharing. -Hati

I've only known the time of us being aware we're a system, but I've heard a lot from others. - Dalzell

This isn't an alter, but rather our semi-joke 'sona for when I want to draw the system with friends, but not draw an additional dozen people. /hj

If anything, this is more of a character of ours, and only lightly.

-Pax

[ablunderofbeans]

I finally got Ozzie's bio done! My art muse has been pulling me all over, making it hard to get myself to get the drawings of our system members done. Hopefully I can finish Fizz's soon.

[ablunderofbeans]

Yarnaby loves playing inside, and there's no shortage of headmates who are more than willing to play fetch with our silly boy.

[ablunderofbeans]

Got busy for a bit, so we didn't have time to do much work on drawings and bios for here. Finally got out Queen Bee's bio done, though!

[ablunderofbeans]

Uhmmm idk who too ask this but anyone who can, does yarnabys yarn grows? And if yes does someone cut it off and groom him? 𓃦

Yarnaby quite enjoys when I need to brush out his yarn. Sometimes, I think he gets it tangled on purpose. - Doc
