I know the whole concept of one of the alters being "the original" is...something. But if it's anyone, it might be Karu.
I think it would explain why they feel so "close" to me and can use the body so easily, why they always show up and stay close by when I'm doing headspace stuff...they're more of a median-y alter than Aether--who is his own guy but his thoughts are very leaky--or some of the others that are just...totally cut off from me. Communicating with them is like communicating with another, external person.
I should probably make some charts/diagrams, categorizing people with the "closeness" and communicability and sort of a "family tree," since some people feel like they clearly split/budded off from someone else. And idk I just really like organization.
Also I just took my night time psych med and it's an antihistamine which means last night's is at its weakness so now I'm getting bad allergies from everything I kicked up from cleaning earlier. So I guess I'm gonna knock myself out with some benadryl lol. So I guess it's a good thing there's no 11 am elite raids in my area since I probably wouldn't be able to get out of bed that early anyways.

We usually say Logan is "our original", as in he's not the only original, but he's our personal definition of our original, because he's the one who was around before our plurality. Or at least, he's been a constant since the body was first born, and even as others came and went, he's always been himself. During periods where nobody else existed, he was always the one.
