I recently made a graph outlining the personalities of our system members, to see if there were any clear differences. It looks like this:

Since seeing this was such a relief to me (because I doubt “us” constantly), I thought someone else would like to make one like this too, or maybe just do it for fun.

To start off, there are ten sections with eight traits each. They’re a bit inacurate and can be redundant, but they’re just to give a general idea, not exact descriptions. They are:

Stable:

even-tempered

satisfied/content

relaxed

optimistic

self-accepting

tolerant

laid-back

self-sufficient

Agreeable:

warm

kind

cooperative

trusting

friendly

open

forgiving

teamworker

Conscientious:

organized

efficient

methodical

dutiful

tenacious

dependable

hardworking

responsible

Conservative:

uncreative

dogmatic

cautious

habit-driven

routine-bound

unromantic

unquestioning

conventional

Introvert:

shy

quiet

bashful

withdrawn

reserved

polite

timid

reclusive

Uptight:

moody

jealous

envious

touchy

anxious

angry

depressed

self-obsessed

Disagreeable:

unsympathetic

rude

stubborn

critical

quarrelsome

distant

distrustful

obstructive

Careless:

disorganized

sloppy

inefficient

reckless

immature

extravagant

rebellious

exhibitionist

Open-minded:

creative

questioning

artistic interests

emotionally open

adventurous

liberal

romantic

playful

Extrovert:

talkative

socially bold

energetic

gregarious

assertive

thrill-seeking

cheerful

enthusiastic

Check all that apply for each system member and make a note of how many from each section they have. Our list looks like this:

Now that you have the numbers, go to this site and put in the information.(Be sure to leave the chart size at 400x400 or else the labels will disappear. I haven’t figured out how to fix this.)

 Go to the section title “data” and input the numbers for one member starting with “stable”, going around clockwise, and ending with “stable” again. (My numbers are there as an example, click the red X to delete them before saving the chart.) Repeat for each member of the system. Also be sure to select a unique color for each member to make it easier to see on the graph.

Then go down to “axes”, click the red X to delete the default settings, select the empty box, and paste this:

stable, agreeable, conscientious, conservative, introvert, uptight, disagreeable, careless, open-minded, extrovert

And it should be done! If you have a larger system, I would recommend making multiple graphs. Have fun!

Someone was wondering about it, so this post will be talking about Haneda’s game “Little Red Riding Hood’s Wolf”! (Link leads to the official translation post.)

In this game, you play as nine-year-old Rosetta who returns to her grandmother’s house to investigate the woman’s murder. When she arrives, she meets a boy named Camille who had come to Rosetta’s grandmother, a well-known medicine-maker, to get medicine to control his “fits”, not knowing of “Ms. Mary’s” death. 

She allows him into the house, and together they investigate the murder, not knowing how many secrets will be revealed.

There are a couple of (extremely simple) chases, but for the most part it is an exploration/search game with some very simple puzzles. It has seven endings in total.

Trigger warnings for #blood #gore #violence #dismemberment #death #child death #murder #suicide #weapons (specifically #guns #swords and #knives ) as well as mentions of #alcohol #abuse #child abuse #war and #abduction

Content warnings for #family (#mothers #fathers #parents  #grandparents ) #swearing #medication #scopophobia #red eyes #glowing eyes and mentions of #school .

If you have any concerns for triggers I may have missed, feel free to ask!

Can you tell us what the talker app (I assume it's an app?) on your phone is? Sometimes I go partially nonverbal, or am unable to speak because of anxiety, so I think it would be helpful. ;_;

The text-to-speech program we’ve been using is called IVONA (here’s the website, where you can test the different voices in different languages). They’re great because they have a wide range of age and gender sounds (see the full voice portfolio here). 

Not every voice might be available for mobile users– right now we have a really old phone and have only used it on that device, so I’m not entirely sure– but you can also change the speed at which the voice talks, as well as the pitch of each individual voice. (I suggest “Amy”, the female UK voice–she generally reads smoothly, and afaik is available on any device).

The IVONA main app, which you need to download to use any of the voices, is here for Android. Amy is here, along with instructions on how to make IVONA work on your phone.

I thought I’d publish this, because other followers with similar issues might like to see the links. Best of luck!

Can you give us some tips on "fading out"? I'm kind of stuck with control, but I'd like to give the others some time with the body.

Okay, this was something I discovered when I was doing meditation therapy for anxiety. I didn’t start this to try and remove myself from the body, it was just a pleasant side effect. So my best advice is to find a meditation style that works for you and see what happens.

That said, here are some general tips: 

1. Practice! It’s gonna take a loooong time before you can just do it whenever you want. I’ve been meditating since I was 15, so 4 years, and I’ve only been able to fade at will for about a year. 

2. Make sure the others know to chill out during this time to prevent distractions. It’s kinda hard to clear your mind when someone else is operating the body while you’re still present.

3. Remove yourself from the outer world. Enter the headspace. Once you’re firmly situated in the headspace, remove yourself from the inner world too. If it helps, try creating a place in the headspace that represents nothing, or a void. I think I have my own headspace, one that’s not shared, for meditation. 

4. Visualize blankness (not just darkness). I like to imagine my consciousness as water that fills my body, and I imagine it evaporating from my feet, my hands, my arms and legs, all the way up to my head. Some people say they think of a giant eraser wiping them away. 

5. You’re going to start noticing your breathing and your heartbeat. Don’t. But don’t get frustrated when you get distracted. Notice your thoughts. Acknowledge them and let them pass by and return to a state of nothingness.

6. The others will notice when you’re gone. When you remove yourself from the body one of them will have to take control. Don’t worry, someone will always be there for you. Make sure you share your plans with the others.  If they’ve never been “alone” before, they might start panicking. Also, don’t expect them to be productive your first time. It can be hard for them to fully take over. 

7. If you do manage to fade out, it shouldn’t feel like lost time. You’ll come back naturally - it may be hours or it may be minutes later (practice makes it longer). You’ll feel like you’ve just woken up from a nap, but you won’t be able to remember anything you “dreamed” coherently. You’ll be tired, but it’s not as jarring as losing time. 

Sorry this got so long! Hope it helps, though!

PSA

Okay, so a note on Singlet vs. Median vs. Multiple. The simplest explanation I have is (and please note that even this is pretty generalizing and probably doesn’t apply to all):

singlet = 1 body, 1 mind, 1 entity

median = 1 body, 1 mind, 2+ enitities

multiple = 1 body, 2+ minds, 2+ entities

I say “entity” because some medians may not consider themselves different people. And that’s okay! “Median” just means between singlet and multiple.

Some medians consider themselves “parts” that function as a single person. They may have their own names for the sake of organization, but that doesn’t change how they think of themselves. They’re still median, but they may be closer to singlet (if they choose to descibe themselves that way).

Other medians consider themselves different people but think they are too closely linked to call themselves multiple. They can have their own names/pronouns/appearances/etc. They’re also median, but they may be closer to multiple (if they choose to descibe themselves that way).

And other medians can be any mixture of the two examples! Maybe they’re “the same person” but have their own identities, or maybe they’re different versions of “the same person” and consider themselves different people. That’s all fine!

What isn’t fine? Telling medians what they can or cannot be based solely on your own experiences.

Thank you, this has been a PSA.

tfw you say "all of us" or "none of us" instead of just "we" to assert to yourself that there's actually different people in here.

Honestly, the biggest issue we have with the novel (besides the ending) is the fact that Rick apparently disappears, given how unlikely that would be in a real-life system.

Okay but look at my daughter.
