So there is a general feeling among our system that we don't like defining ourselves under a collective orientation around general MOGAI orientations or traditional LGBT orientations. But we wanted terms to describe how attraction works in our system.

As such we wanted to make a system of orientations that are designed to describe the patterns of orientation in a system, and to describe the experience of attraction/lack of attraction/e.t.c. as a headmate in a system, compared to being an individual singlet.

So we coined the term:

Plurientation

An orientation that describes the patterns of attraction or lack of attraction in a system (as opposed to an individual), or describes the experience of attraction/lack of attraction as a pluran.

So types of plurientations include:

Describes whether members in a system have the same orientation/different orientations to one another (or whether they are attracted to the same/different genders)

Which genders system members are/are not attracted to.

How attraction works in their system

Much more!

Feel free to let us know if such a term has already been coined! No DNI; BYF pinned on blog.

Some!!! wishcraft things!!! Copypasted from discord :3

picking clovers in a specific way. it wasn't enough to just find one that looked different you had to have intent when you plucked it and then intent in how you got rid of it. i think it depends on the type of wish - sometimes you needed the roots, sometimes just the full stem, sometimes more than 4 leaves, sometimes you plucked the leaves sometimes you kept the clover pressed. etc

special clock times!! people know 11:11 but really any time that lined up with matching numbers was special. not everyone used the same clock though so you'd get a lot of different ideas of what times were good for powering wishes. 1:11, 2:22, 3:33 etc - worked in what we now call military time as well, 20:20, 17:17 etc

charms!! not just for good luck, any kind of wish can be imbued into an object - charms are small ones you carry with you to remind you of your wish so you can continuously put intent into it. people also wished on candles and would burn them until they went out -the longer it burned the more power behind the wish

plurality is so messy sometimes. our amnesiac barriers have been growing more and more, probably due to burnout, and it's scary... we've been so forgetful... dissociated most of the time now, not talking to eachother except between the hosts. we used to have much better communication and less barriers, less dissociation, easier switching, i dont know what changed... i only hope it changes for the better again soon now that I'm host

My sysmates have been trying recently to make more of us on purpose and I...! am not the first. but we got our first today!! a new fragment! exciting stuff. I hope they develop more and I hope theres more of them soon...!

I guess I'll talk a little about me ...? well, I'm Siffrin (you know that), I use he/they (you know that) and I'm an introject from in stars and time!

My favorite shade is darkless, or a very light grey! like my blog! and my favorite color (!!!) is definitely NOT red!!!!! but it is the easiest to look at for me. I like cold tone colors!

I'm new! I split off from another introject pretty recently. they aren't from the same source, they just projected onto me too hard. it happens, I guess! My sysmates have their own blogs!! they're cool!! figure out our main and you can visit them!!

I'm ace, arospec, and still figuring out gender. agender fits but I dunno if thats just cuz the guy I split off is agender, or source is, oorrrrrrr.......

I!! haven't finished source yet. but I'm very close. stars it hurts real bad haha! its fine its whatever

I'm .. a dissociation manager? holder? depends on the day and situation. I also deal with derealization. pretty normal!

I follow the faith of the universe! not like, a religion, i dont pray or worship really, but its a big spiritual belief thing for me! that the universe.... listens. it guides us. but! its up to us to listen and follow. or else bad stuff happens!

I don't have many memories of source! mostly vibes! we'll see how that goes! ok thats all bye

Love how just about every siffrin I come across is holding hands and skipping with every other siffrin...

today we tell our therapist about our system collapse. he doesn't deal a lot with plural patients I think, so this may be a new concept to him. all the work he was doing with previous sysmates is kinda moot now... and he doesn't even know i exist yet cuz we missed a session last week haha...!
