tomorrow (tuesday) will mark an entire non-leap february worth of being Absolutely Definitely Undeniably Plural.
it's been a learning experience. learning where we end and begin, figuring out what parts of ourself we all share, getting accustomed to referring to us in the collective sense (this one wasn't hard i did it accidentally and couldnt stop for like one solid night months ago), coming to understand the more physical signs of who's who, figuring out how to coax each other out and retreat back in, just generally getting to know each other... it's great. it all feels so right to me (and probably to the others too i think they're having a good time)
i hope we never stop learning. i hope we experience all the joy and the sadness and the anger and the awkwardness and all of that and i hope that we do it all together.
every so often i look up some Labels and then i just go like... "eh". it's very cool that there's so much terminology made up by a lot of people over the years to describe different experiences of multiplicity and all that but like... unlike with our gender and orientation for which labels are at the very least fun to consider and play with in our head i think we're good just stopping at "plural" for the time being? no label can ever capture the complete internal experience, and i feel like it goes triply so here where nothing that doesn't get so specific to the point of being unwieldy feels like it quite fits. that's fine though
i don't know if i'll ever be able to explain this to anyone i regularly interact with irl, but that's just a skill issue on my end for not having really any meatspace friends i see any more regularly than the odd chance yearly encounter? we need more freaks in our real life.
oh also sorry alice i still don't think we need a system name yet. literally there's only three of us we dont even really have a "system" at this point we are LITERALLY just chillin
