Seven Stars in a system. UPDATED 7.2019
Hi! We’re the Stars System! My name’s Mitch and I’ll be taking you on a guided tour of the mindscape!
EDIT 2019: with some recent additions(and incentives to use this tumblr more often), we've taken the liberty of editing this post with our two newest members.
I’ll start with our fierce protector, Max. He’s sweet at heart, but he can knock you down to protect his friends. He’s got the body's name and birthday, and for how early in the year it comes, it's a neat reminder to us about the passage of time. He cares about all of us and is a little overprotective, but hey. We’ve dealt with it all our lives. You can too. Sidenote: we will make official posts when our birthdays come, from whoever's out at the time. # maxrants
Next up, I present to you Harp. She and I are the twins here. Not literal twins, but the closest pair in this mindscape. She’s super creative, always has a song on her mind, and whenever she’s out in the body she’s singing something. # harpsichord
But she’s not the one who writes songs. Vi does most of that. She’s really good, too. She doesn’t have anything published yet, but she’s composing an ep for us. Usually, she’s quiet. She’s our wordless one. But when you get comfortable with her, she’s a lot more open. She’s cautious, and is careful not to hurt any of us, but when left alone she is a force to be reckoned with, that's for sure. Some might label her more akin to a Virgil, which I tend to on occasion agree with. Right down to the color palettes. # ultraviolet
But there are some brains to this operation. That comes in the form of Data. They’re quite analytical, almost robotic in a way. They’re the lonely journal keeper, though they take umbrage to that, seeing as they’re neither lonely, nor a journal keeper. Yet, they are a record keeper, so the title still fits. Do not interfere with the work of someone the likes of them without a really good reason. # data'sjournal
Data has a second in command: their name is Doll. They’re not exactly comfortable talking to other people yet, but when they do, it’s an argument ender. They’re our peacekeeper, as I call them. They dispel arguments within our own head, and even outside if we have to. They’re a real sweetheart, trust me, I know this. # maryonette
Then we have our wild child, and recent came-to-terms-with-being-a-persecutors, Emerald. She is always bouncing off the walls and can get quite rowdy when she’s out in the body. We usually save her energy reserves for a party, or any other event where we need to be social. She’s our Barry Bluejeans, the charming lover. I’m glad we have someone to rely on in those situations when we need her. # emeraldgreen
Now we're getting into our newer additions! Just because they haven't been around all that long, doesn't make them any less supported or welcomed. First up is Nine, they're a sweetheart, careful not to screw things up, and their sunlight shines through to all of us. Plus, they make a killer cup of tea if you ask them kindly enough. # nineofthoughts
And we have a system pet now, too. His name is Rylan, and he's attached at the hip to Violet, who adores him so. They're so cute, if only I could get photos in the headspace! # rydesign
And you met me at the top of the page! My name’s Mitch. I’m the optimistic one, and I’m the one out most of the time. Sure, you’ll get writing from all nine of us at some point, identified by the tags I’ve put after their paragraphs. Mine is # skybluehighlights after my favorite color. I hope to hear from all of you soon!
