Since were still rookies here and never made an intro here we go! (Get comfy cuz we're gonna try to awnser them all)
🌸: 60 currently active but probably around 90-100 total - We personally consider this an average system on the larger side. But also we front 4 at a time always so 🤷♂️
🧩: We have one we know of and 1 that we may have created accidentally 😭. - The one we know of is called the "Monster System" (MS) and it belongs to It. They have a portal to their headspace in the fronting room and a few of their members can come and go as they please (one of even dating a River Flow member!) But some of them can cause a system wide "shut down" making it so only MS members can front. Luckily this is reserved for emergencies <3 - The other one... we dont know whose it is but we made an area for all our pokemon to hang out and now it functions like a subsystem complete woth a gatekeeper so we'll let you know if we figure out who that subsys belongs to 😭😭
🍧: Yes. Infact our system regularly refers to "the core" as they make the rules and often decide what to do with the day. Our core members are (Active): Érazane, 5, & It (passive but still around:) Milo, Mai & Lia - Thease are the members that have been around clearly since our syscovery and they all hold pretty important roles to this day. Zane is host, It is backup host and 5 is our archivist.
💞: Yes we do. - We'd say it's pretty average, a central tower, some buildings around and then a couple other areas. Definitely not small but we've hear of systems that are whole planets or like archipelagos so we're definitely not that big lol.
💧: We do have a front room ^v^. As mentioned earlier we always front in sets of 4. We have a main fronter who generally controls the body, 2 co-fronters who are there as support. They tend to clarify things in conversation when we chat on discord, and keep us on task when were out reminding the main front to eat, or that we have to strop by the library to drop off the books. And then at the back of the front room we have a beanbag where someone sits in "co-con" their there and can chat but not at all involved in what were doing and just there for the vibes/to be with the fronters lol
🍀: So when people are in the same room (of the headspace) they can talk to eachother but as the 2 kings It and Zane have omni potent telepathy. They dont use it often but it's how they call specific members. - Honorable mention however: Milo, our bartender has a tablet on his bar which instead of like Uber eats orders he can uses to send messages up to the front room in text form lol
🍡: Introject, Core, Prosecutor, Original... but we also have a member rank system that gose from 10 to 1. The higher rank you are the more power you have. So for example Zane & It are the inly rank 1s, while members who dont or can't front are rank 10. - Anyone of a lower rank has to listen to the higher ranks or be kicked our of front lol (outside kf the front room ranks mean nothing and are mostly ignored or forgotten X D )
🌺 Érazane fronts the most. And have a bunch of rank 10s who never front but I think we'll mention specificly Milo who avoids fronting for person reasons <3
❄️uhhhhh I mean every once in a while Zane will get burnt our and his support crew will *force* him to take a break but other than that it's kind of just gradual, one person will start fronting less whike another starts fronting more and it's all kind of on a rotation like a... River Flow System if you will ; ) (This is achually where our name comes from < 3) - Related though: We recently graduated from our therapy program and have been stable like this for close to a year! : D (and hopefully many more UwU)
🥝: A few times a day. Generally when switching tasks. It's hard to say bc it's so natural but full front changes Generally when we wake up we set the fronters fkr the day, change them when we get home and are going into "relaxing" mode. But then like we may switch if the body is getting tired or were having someone's favorite food lol.
🪷: Yes always. See other awnsers lol.
🌷: Bout as long as it takes us to open PluralSapce as it helps us figure out who we need. Sometimes it's easy and we know right away and sometimes the idiots (aff) are indecisive and it takes a couple minutes lol
🌧Well I mean, all our introjects just use their source voice. Aside from that everyone is so well integrated that I think we just all use various tones of our body's voice. (We were a dramma kid so we have a pretty wide range lol)
🌱: Alright heres the list: 12o8o19, our player character from Splatoon (dating back to the original <3 ), Cell from DeadCells also the player character, we have Season 1 Lute (source divergent) and Emily from the fallen au (her specific source being the "I would Fall again" music video on youtube), Rin & Len the vocaloids, after that we have Ash's Lucario and Goh's Cinderace from pokemon journeys, Captain (Karoo) Cinderace from Pokemon Unite, Melloetta from the black & white animie, a shiny Minccino sourced from a mix of the animie and the BW2 game, a rotom sourced from a future au of the original poképark game, Celebi from the original Pokémon game, Arceus who we *think* is sourced from Legends Arceus, Xernius from the xy animie, a Pumkaboo from a mix of the xygames and the animie, and like 20 more pokemon who are just sourced from "pokemon" with no specific game or animie as we consume aLOT of pokemon media X D
💐(Éra)Zane is our main host, It is our backup host. Lute, Ty and Zain are the current co-hosts but Karoo and Bray are also in rotation as co-hosts. - Honorable mention to Rin & Bell, who are our designated social butterfly fronters due to their energy lol
🍃: We can. Mostly the front room but occasionally It and Zane are able to scan the whole area to just keep an eye on things. Also we can always see Milo's bar since he's connected via the tablet lol
💗: Were not to familiar with this but we do know that Zane is our "Original". I know naming the "original" member may upset alot of people but uhhh when the man *rembers* making It and Meep at 4 years old to defend him from the big scary world it's a little hard to ignore lol. We have/still have our original member and his first two members that he ever made. Some (alot of) systems dont and that dosnt make them any more or less valid. <3
🌿: Sort of but also not really... it's mainly introjected members who dont wanna front/haven't been active in a while kind of just fade into the background of they didn't return to their source. Thats the closest thing we have since our bartender and master of the castle are core members lol
🍬Yes. Aside from the rank system mentioned earlier, Only the core members are allowed to spend money/use the bank cards. If anyone other than a core member wants to make a purchase it must be approved by them. - Other rules, when socializing/out of the house you must log switches. This is simply an accessiblity thing since we are open about our plurality we like to keep our supportive singlets in the loop.
And finally a rule that It has in place for his members (as they tend to be anger holders and other problematic types of fronters): You are NOT TO FUCK with the cat. - We have a cat. She's Zane's cat. Anyone who fucks this this cat feels It's rage as she's so important to Zane's mental wellbeing lol.
Want to know more about something? Or about something that didn't come up here? Ask us! We love asks!!! Thankyou so much for taking the time to read! : D
