Hi! I was curious who Keito is and how they fit into your stories? I scrolled through their tag but a lot of the stuff there is old, so I don't know what's still "canon" or has changed over the years.

Really good question and one I'm still figuring out myself. For now, he's a twelve year old living with the adult Labana and Chiyoko that really really wants to be a superhero. He's in Ko's class when it finally gets enrolled in school post-GUTG, and the two make friends. That's all she (me) wrote for now.

lab and chiyoko on the brain today

some stuff on how the season collective sees themselves in their headspace

before labana was aware of being plural, she and damara both assumed that damara cofronting with her was just an anxiety spike.

damara in particular starts out seeing herself as a mirror image of labana, but as she establishes her own identity further she takes on a more unique appearance!

colette pictures herself as a catgirl because she has no shame and she's right not to

beryl envisions herself keeping people at further than arm's length with her scarf (a comfort object that every alter shares). while she's fronting she has a habit of hiding her hands, whether it's tucking them into her sleeves (you know when like, you fold your arms and slide one hand into the opposite sleeve) or putting them in her pockets or winding them in her scarf

there are other alters and fragments besides damara, beryl, and colette, but the only one they've really seen enough to name is genevieve who's just a cat

Ok, we knew this day was coming. 🔄Raphael. Also, how do Chiyoko and Labana fit into TLN?

You'll Be Gone! This was the song that inspired the idea that Raphael knows who Verity used to be, and details his desire to be rid of star and Friday so he can continue to keep Seth safely under his thumb. How will they know about what happened if you can't speak a word at all? Now that I've lied a little louder, oh, I can't wait to see you fall.

I think I'm saving Chiyoko, Labana, and Keito for another story. TLN focuses a lot on Hito and his family, and I don't want the narrative to become too cluttered when Hito's backstory is already VERY messy.

season collective my beloved

I have a friend with DID, so anytime someone depicts the disorder in a non-stigmatized way, my heart gets very happy. I love The Season Collective so much already. Really, just thank you in general for depicting mental disorders that are typically stigmatized (like with seraphina's npd).

I'm doing my best, but I'm always open to feedback and suggestions as to how I could be doing better - I haven't lived with a lot of these disorders, so I'm prone to making mistakes in my depictions that I'd rather have pointed out sooner than later.
