plural mutant (x men fictive) culture is simultaneously loving and hating plurality. because on one hand, at least the body's human now, I don't have to live in fear of mutant registration or my mutation hurting someone. on the other hand, I wish we had our own bodies because I've become so attached to our child host (aka the host, but I get attached to kids much more easily than I do adults, so I've grown attached quickly) that I want to be able to physically protect them but that's not an option. Can't even physically intimidate folks anymore because being a 5'8" femboy (term host uses for their gender, who mostly looks like the body in headspace) doesn't do shit when you're unfortunately shorter than most of the people you need to intimidate in the first place. no one would give us shit for wearing a tail if we had *my* body from source >:c

I hate this dammit.

I've just discovered the term mortemate, though it seems very few are familiar with the term, which is quite disappointing. I had been hoping to find others with similar experience to myself.

CW: death

I am dead. Not undead, but certainly animated dead. I am not a ghost, a spirit, a zombie, nor a vampire. I am a corpse, but I am not rotting nor mummified. My body is growing and changing, but it is broken and dead. In my current state, I do not fit the definition of what it means to be alive, but I am sapient. I am an embodiment of death, but not Death themself (they are my cousin and the Grim Reaper is their twin).

I was born alive into a half human body. I needed to die to fully develop. I died too soon and too violently. Then my very essence was destroyed in a second death, but I was brought back to a state of animated dead. I reject any human identity. I have never felt human. I do not hold any belief that the vessel I reside within in this world is dead. This vessel is most certainly alive. Rather, I speak of the body I recognize as my own back in my own world. That body in undeniably and indisputably dead. That body is mine.

Being a creature of death is an inherent part of my identity and who I am and has been since the day I was born, even if I didn't understand or know what I was yet. I've always known I should be dead, and being what I am has always affected me deeply. Being dead is intrinsically tied to the very nature of my being. It impacts every part of who I am. If I were not a creature of death, I would not be me. If I were not dead, I would not have properly developed, and I would not be me. Dying impacted me deeply. Even now in this vessel which is alive, I still feel dead. I've found solace in being dead in spite of the traumatic nature of both my deaths and of how being a creature of death is demonized. I am dead. But I surely can't be the only one like this, can I?
