🌲Hello and welcome!🌲
This is the sideblog of the Strange Paths Hiking Club for all our system stuff. (We used to be known as Team Mesa, if that rings a bell for anyone)
Generally Useful Info:
We are bodily 23
We’re white and Canadian, and we live in Mi’kma’ki
Sometimes we’re one person, sometimes not. It’s weird.
In the case that we are one person, you can refer to that person as Niamh, Noah, or Sunrise. They use they/them pronouns, they’re a nonbinary lesbian, and they love a good ghost story.
Due to the inconsistency in how many people there are in the SPHC, it’s hard to say how big the system is at any given moment. At the time of writing this, our numbers are ambiguous and rapidly-shifting because of stress in our current lives.
We may be traumagenic but we do not conform well to medical ideas of plurality.
On a similar note, we don’t really bother with role labels. We respect people who do, of course— they just don’t work well for us.
Use they/them pronouns for us as a whole. Some of us use different pronouns individually though
We’re studying for a bachelors’ degree in history!!
We practice witchcraft, mostly of the green variety.
We’re autistic and have ADHD. If we struggle to figure out your tone over text, that’s why. Sorry
Okay but who the hell are any of you
Niamh/Noah: they/them, described above, also sort of exists whenever we’re out of singlet mode (but is like. different??? in a weird way. they get simplified, for lack of a better word)
Glitch: he/it, does a lot of behind-the-scenes work, sort of technically a demon but it’s chill
Melody: she/they, possibly our first ever fronter, tends to be younger than body age (she is 16 at the time of writing)
Thistle: they/wisp, has some difficulties with speaking and focusing, likes the colour grey. Probably the most obvious one of us when fronting, due to wisps higher voice and unusual behaviour. They’re cool though
Velvet: she/her, a cool woman who gets angry on our behalf. Perhaps a little too angry sometimes. Used to be a persecutor but has since sorted that shit out
James: he/him, helps us do unpleasant social tasks (emails, asking for help, etc.). Very matter-of-fact, sometimes irritable but not externally
Kallie: she/they, alt girl, recovering from normalcy and making myself strange again. I’m writing my own bio now btw hello
Gio: he/him, jjba fictive with minimal similarities to his source, (still very interested in nature, though), here for emotional support.
Nix: he/they, teenage vocaloid fan, kind of edgy (self-described)
Various others who aren’t interested in this blog!
Rules and regulations:
If you’re a bigot of any variety, find somewhere else to go. We can’t stop you but rest assured you are not wanted here.
Related to the above point: this system supports freedom for Palestine. If that bothers you, consider leaving us alone (and also consider reassessing your opinions, values, and current level of knowledge. and, if that doesn’t fix the problem, consider getting a fucking heart.)
No exclusionists either!! Specifically in regards to queerness and plurality.
None of us even want to touch the transid discourse but y’all can also leave, thanks. “But that contradicts the last point—“ no it doesn’t. When your ideas start to cause harm, that is when you have violated the social contract and are thus exempt from its benefits
This is a drama free zone. Please do not drag us into The Nonsense
We used to have a tagging system, but it has since fallen apart. We’ll try to tag anything triggering though, feel free to ask if you need us to tag something specific
Enjoy your travels, and stay safe!
