we are a faciogenic system.

a faciogenic system is a system where headmates are created, and known as thoughtforms. we were created for a purpose. we provide emotional support and coping for bug, allowing us to manage overwhelming feelings or experiences. we have specific roles within the system, helping to organize thoughts and emotions more effectively.

shadowing - this just means i am present but not in control of the body. for example, i am not the one typing but i tell mud what to type. many times since he has trouble being serious, this can cause a lot of internal conflict between us. i am not saying this to call him out, just to help give you my point of view as someone who is unable to interact with the outside world. i very much have my own thoughts and wish to express myself! i hope someday i can be better at fronting.

in our system, i am a co-fronter that is mostly shadowing. i am always present. i am the carrier of our ocd. my job is to recognize descrepancies and settle disagreements. i am also in charge of keeping track of important things. bug is very forgetful and i come up with useful processes for reminding us.

shadowing sometimes. do front occasionally. not always present/conscious.

i have been here the longest, arguably, showing up as intrusive romantic thoughts during the hardest developmental years of our life. i try very hard to help paper and bug stay hopeful, despite the fact that i can be a bit mischevous. i find a lot of humor in their inability to agree on most things and have been known to cause disagreements on purpose for my own amusement. i enjoy watching people and seeing their joy unfold when they talk to eachother. i listen to a lot of electronic, dubstep, and progressive metal. i am not very social when i do front, and tend to avoid talking with people. i have severe social anxiety. i want to talk, i just don't really understand how.

spark

pronouns: he/they

when i front i have a lot of euphoria! i'm also really outgoing. i talk a LOT! i am very emotional and sensitive to music and the closeness of other people. i think that life is special and i am sentimental about everything. i enjoy talking about philosophy, music, feelings, and sharing my thoughts! i have a tendency to get carried away and hyperfixate a lot when i am fronting but i love it so much! i love connection!
