having a frontstuck host and using SimplyPlural is one hell of an experience because 90% of the time it just looks like This

Combo flag for those who consider oneself(ves) to be both a Proxy System, and having P-DID. Can be called the P-DID Proxy System flag.

AndreW2002 and The PsychoNetworks "Chat" from Minecraft ARG but the Protagonist is a Speedrunner are a Protogenic Proxy System!

Protogenic refers to a system which has existed from birth, has never had a noticeable singlet phase, or cannot remember their formation

A Proxy System or Proxy Plural/Collective/Etc. is a system where one functions as a singlet (or approximately close to one, such as a median system) due to a frontstuck host, yet all members of the system are completely distinct in the headspace

proxy system host culture is frequently feeling like you're "roleplaying" even though you can't control their beliefs, words, etc because everything they want to do is filtered through you

Being a proxy system is fun because if I don’t call my headmates to front sometimes I won’t hear from anyone for a week and sometimes eldritch deity fictive number 27 decides 10:00 pm on a school night when I’m trying to do homework is a perfectly reasonable time to chat

OK OK. WE FOUND A TERM THAT FITS US EXTREMELY WELL.

this is us. we may "switch", but Aspen (the host) is always there, in co con. it almost NEVER leaves front. they'll be quiet and not directly talking to anyone but he's still there. (think sitting in the corner with headphones on watching videos while you're friends are talking.) we can count on one hand the number of times Aspen left front.

another thing is our "front room". we used to have a dedicated "room" (empty dark void with a control panel and a floating screen of the bodies vision) but now, it's just the cabin's living room. our TV is what the body sees, and there's an old N64 for body control. people may sit on the couch and comment on what to do, cool stuff, or just yap. but Aspen has a chair they don't leave. he has a room, but they only leave when the body sleeps.

anyway, see ya, we are procrastinating on our psychology work.

I wonder how many proxy/median systems got misdiagnosed with ADHD bc there are like. 5 trains of thought running through their head at all times but they only feel like one person. The main difference being the different trains of thought can communicate back & forth instead of just being in the bg.
