#approaching mental experiences with intrigue instead of disgust would open so many avenues for us as a species

what i feel like is lacking from conversations about plurality is how genuinely, fundamentally cool it is to be plural. doesnt it fascinate you how our brains can create entirely new selves, inner worlds, inner structures to keep itself afloat? doesnt it make you so curious? especially with regards to atypical plural experiences. i dont hate people for having entire systems full of fragments or fictives or subsystems. in fact, i find it wonderful, a miracle of the mind. you have a complicated inner world with unique lore? incredible, how did that develop? your entire system is full of fictives from the same source? thats amazing, hows that going? your system has entire layers on itself, with several systems running in tandem? wow, thats fascinating, how did you know? you believe you came from different worlds? tell me about them. please, tell me more about yourselves. id love to hear it. i do not fear the potential of the human brain.

You wanna talk complicated inner worlds? Boy do we have one.

Ours, as far as we know, was never made like most are. It was always just... There. Our inner world is a small beachside town surrounded by a forest. On the surface, fine. Nothing seems to be weird or anything but once you learn about the forest (or more specifically what lives in the forest) and the weird stuff with the stores and other buildings you'll see otherwise.

And that's not even the weirdest shit! There's a cave with a bunch of foxes that you can find if you go down this path in the forest.

Anyway, back to what I was talking about. In the forest there are wolf-like creatures that are incredibly dangerous. And I say wolf-like because they aren't exactly wolves. They're always just slightly off. Like maybe an extra limb or a missing eye, etc.

The discovery about the buildings is a newer thing. A new alter formed and... Didn't react well to what was going on and that same alter had powers and they ended up destroying a bit of some buildings which revealed bones instead of metal bars and stuff. And some even healed like it was a cut or something!

Also I apologize for so many long posts lately
