God, I love when new alters front cause it's just like:

Them: Why does this hurt?

Me: Because it does, I don't know why.

Them: Why not?

Me: Cause the body just works like that.

Them: When will it stop?

Me: So see, well there's a thing called chronic pain...

Like this is your life now.

I hate this.

I was an OC. My source was with someone we aren't friends with anymore and I was made to be dormant because I was deemed too risky.

Because I missed them.

Because I wouldn't listen to the others when I was grieving.

Because they were worried I would reach out to them.

I just got triggered out of it and into front because we saw something of theirs.

And I hate it.

Dormancy meant I wouldn't have to figure out myself. What I want to do with myself.

I had a family!!!

It's gone!!!

I hate this, I hate my source but I need it because who am I otherwise?

Being a fictive is crazy sometimes cause like I have a job.

Rainbow Dash from My Little Pony works in retail five days of the week.

I have been forced into retail hell

So y'know how the ranger numbing salve or whatever is made with warmweed? I'm just imagining a ranger trying to top up his container and Will notices from a distance, silently walks over behind him, and just says "You're doing it wrong"

After nobody responds he just takes the stem and demonstrates how you're supposed to do it, and like half the people nearby are practically frozen. Like nobody knows how to react and the people who do aren't in the area. He's like "Oh c'mon guys you can trust me, I'm literally an ex addict" someone mutters "that's the problem" and he just rolls his eyes and leaves

I don't even know what the "wrong" or "right" way would entail, but I have been dying with laughter over the thought of this for the past half hour

hey you, the ranger’s apprentice fictive reading this…

did you know that you are amazing? and you are a respected, cherished, and beloved member of both your system and the plural community just the way you are? regardless of how you view your source or how strongly you identify with it, ranger’s apprentice fictives, you are as beautiful, complex, and unique as the stars in the sky!

whether you are a thoughtform, soulbond, daemon, an alter in a trauma-formed system, or don’t like to label yourself in that way, you’re still special and you matter. and yeah, this definitely includes you ranger’s apprentice fictives who formed as a result of your system’s special interest or hyperfixation. or if you formed from your system’s own imagination, or as a posic companion, an introject of the literal books or any character within. no matter what labels you use or how you ended up in your system, your existence is real, your identity is real, and your experiences are worth sharing, discussing, and celebrating.

you are worthy of love and respect even if you haven’t ever read or engaged in your source, or if you revisit it often. it’s okay for your source to bring you comfort, or to be triggered by it, or to feel completely neutral about it, or to not understand how you feel about it. it’s okay to struggle with exotrauma, painful source memories, or source memories that make you nostalgic or long for the life you had in source.

fictives, including you, ranger’s apprentice fictives, are not a monolith. it’s okay to have complex or complicated feelings about your source. love it or hate it, you’re still you, and you’re still a unique individual who deserves patience and compassion in your life. you deserve to be able to experience this world and make the most of your life, with joy and happiness as you are today.

we hope you can find that. we hope there is laughter and self-acceptance in your future. we love you, we’re so glad you’re here, and we’re wishing you the very best.
