#when aforementioned alter came in later and got caught up on what he'd missed he just shrugged and was like 'told ya. it was the vibes'

*me, talking to wife*

alter in co-con: hey i think she's a system.

me: what? why?

alter: idk, you just looked in her eyes and something flagged. it's the vibes

me: well that's actually impossible to know, especially from a glance, sooo that will never be said out loud and im discarding that thought, okay?

alter: alright, if you don't wanna listen I'll keep my mouth shut.

*3 months later*

wife: hey leah, remember when you said it's not usually normal for ppls inner monologue to be different voices that refer to you by name as if they aren't just you?

me: ...yeah?

wife: one of them just told me they have a name but aren't supposed to tell me
