heavy on "part death" and talks of dying. also a long-ish post?

why is alter "death" being impossible the one thing I've seen more people agree on than anything when like........................ why isn't it possible.

a part dying within the system won't like.. immediately make someone pass away, yeah. but like.. parts can metaphorically, symbolically, or literally die in the context OF being a part. if a system uses death-language to describe/cope/process that, why should i care?

i've seen people get told, "Heyyyy, so you actually mean dormancy. Alters can't die ^^ /info" or some other bullshit like that while talking about their own system experiences.

death is a traumatizing thing, brushes with death are traumatizing. i think it makes sense that many multiples (especially those traumaborne) would see and treat things that look/act like death.. like death.

i feel like people "against" part death, take it too literal. which i've never understood since plurality is incredibly subjective and personal, give or take a few mainline "happenings"/"features".

there's no reason why part death is to be "impossible" across every collective and the narrative that it *is*, is really annoying and spreads a lot of literal ideas of multiplicity that i don't care for.

there are many ways of saying that a part of you went through death and the self (in the nonplural sense):

"I lost a part of myself.." "I think a little bit of me died.." "A piece of me died when.."

it's generally considered common to hear these, in many situations.

i don't think it's out of line for anyone to say that their moreso "literal" parts (/alters) have passed due to any reason. especially when a lot of multiples i've spoken to, note that their plurality is symbolic and rife with metaphors.

death is a commonly used symbol and metaphor in fiction & real life.

to put it in a very crude way, many of our own parts are rabbits due to the symbolism of rabbithood (to be hunted, scared, et cetera)... why can't these rabbits die for symbolism too? to live and die for the metaphor? why is that "impossible"?

we've always held the belief that anything can happen in terms of plurality, for whatever reason. never understood why part death, in particular, wasn't even debated.. just inherently false.
