#alto talks

Something I don't believe I've ever discussed here is our names.

I'm sure at least somebody has wondered why we have weird names, especially "No Saviour" and "Alto".

We didn't choose them. It's like our brain just... Assigned them to us and wouldn't budge. When I first formed, I didn't know what to call myself. But the second I saw the word "Alto", it's like I didn't have a choice from that point on. No Saviour felt similarly.

Tee chose his name... Kinda. It was considered for a while before it latched on similarly to mine. It's a very strange phenomenon and I have not heard a similar experience from other systems.

When someone asks me how I hold things perfectly with wyvern wings, the answer is I just don't think about it. Just accept that I have an invisible thumb and don't worry about it.

Tee has a massive fear of gaining new system members, because he thinks it'll ruin our bonds together or something. I have to constantly remind them that we don't get new members easily, like at all. And even if we gained 200 overnight, we'd still be best friends.

I understand the fear, but it's completely alright if we do. We'll be fine.

Alto 🐉: We should learn to use Krita, since Linux has a lot of problems with CSP.

Tee 🐾: Agreed, but we're having a flare up at the moment. Best to rest and not stress ourselves with learning stuff.

Alto 🐉: I'm tired of this gay and stupid body getting in the way of creation.

Tee 🐾: I think this is how Leonardo DiCaprio felt when he painted Starry Night.

The Watcher 🌑: Guys.

Tee 🐾: If you take the front for a while, don't worry about the computer today. We'll figure it out.

Alto 🐉: Will do.

*8 hours later.*

Tee 🐾: ...You did nothing BUT worry about the computer.

Alto 🐉: IT WAS FUN.

We've definitely been frail these past few weeks. Even worse now that we got even more bad news today.

I think it bummed us out even more that we didn't get to participate at Howlcon. Unfortunately, 3/4 of us were unavailable. Tee was only available because they had to be. I know for a fact they were feeling awful this week.

I'm supposed to be able to handle the stressful stuff. I'm the tough one. I don't feel like it lately, though. I'm just as anxious and stressed as everyone else this time. It is unfortunate we don't have much of a support system.

I feel like I made a bad decision the other day... I didn't do it with approval from the others. But even though they all agreed I did the right thing I feel like I acted in anger incorrectly.

Tee's assuring me that it was inevitable but eh... I still feel rough about it.

I kinda wish I could pull off my actual voice with the body, but unfortunately someone in an AFAB body doesn't really pull of a really deep, almost-but-not-quite German accent.

Who'd have thought.
