”Hello and welcome! I found this site and convinced my friends to make an ask blog with me! I’m Victoria”

“Hello, I am Natalie”

“What’s up I’m Aiden!”

“Leif is here too, although he doesn’t talk much”

“This plushie here is Robbie!”

Profiles

Victoria is the redhead, she’s something of the leader of the group. She’s super sweet and loves new people

Natalie is the tallest but she’s a gentle woman. She’s an alien who was banished from her home planet

Aiden is the craziest of the group, he doesn’t have many smarts but he has street smarts. He’s part bee but he doesn’t quite know where he got the horns from

Leif is the newest of the group, he ran from a lab and was found by Natalie. He doesn’t talk much but he’s very sweet

Robbie is a plush Victoria found in an alley, he can turn human but has only done it in front of Victoria and the others don’t believe her, but Leif kind of does

“Victoria talks like this”

“Natalie talks like this”

For the ask game:

💕🍋

Thank you for the ask. It's still new to me to talk about my system, at least on Tumblr specifically, but I'd like all of us Sonders to be more comfortable here and asks like this help.

💕: Who is the most recent alter/headmate/member of the system you've discovered/met?

A: We actually had a new headmate show up a few days ago. Her name is Gloria, she mainly goes by the nickname Ria. We have a few high-energy women in our system and she's one of them -- so far she's very enthusiastic about helping everyone out and prides herself on her ability to balance having fun and being responsible. Being in the immediate headspace is a largely voluntary position, and we're pretty certain she volunteered specifically to show off that ability. Also, she's already getting along well with the other Sonder women and femmes.

🍋: How many are near the front right now?

A: As of the last time we did a Simply Plural chat Roll Call around noon, there were 5-6 of us close to front. I (Ky) am practically a constant, being in or near front around 98% of the time. Everyone else usually comes and goes from front in groups of 1-6 system members at a time. Right now it's me (Ky, he/him), Natalie (he/him), Leif (he/they), Yuuki (he/him) blurred with Logan (he/him), and Sara (she/her).

On Take A Chance posts, I’ll be showcasing authors I love to read, but who I don’t have contact with, for things such as interviews and teasers. I will be sharing their bio, some of the works I loved best, and a showcase of up to 5 books, if they have a larger back catalogue, as well as their social media links. ~ Natalie Leif What is there to say about the mysterious Leif?

I’m not on Twitter often, I actually found out about this through a discord group

I did my research though and have found a thread by Natalie Leif that sums it up pretty neatly here

For more information in the drama surrounding author Cait Corrain rn.

Corrain has a debut novel coming out next year entitled ‘Crown of Starlight’. It was under consideration for Illumicrate. It has just recently been revealed that Corrain has been creating burner accounts on Goodreads to rate her competition 1-2 ⭐️ and boost her own book. She of course denies it but a lot of evidence has been revealed. It has been noted that she is mainly targeting marginalised authors. It’s very sad because their book wasn’t doing bad! Many people were getting excited for it but this author still chose to sabotage their peers.

The doc exposing burner accounts of her review bombing other authors here. The evidence dates back to April this year

Apparently the author was friends with another recent debut and asked for their endorsement for her book, only to secretly review bomb them too

Author Xiran Jay Zhao is providing lists of other 2024 debut authors you can support here

Goodreads has currently disabled users from interacting with Corrain’s book due to the breach of guidelines which I worked out while trying to remove it from my TBR
