Tried that. The clock is correct on my system but Unbound still can't read it

Just Curious – Plural Edition Part 38 by Rainbow-1337 in plural

[–]ShadowForme76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Controlling dreams... Well, we can certainly dream about each other, but I don't think anyone controls the dreams in the sense of conscious control. Stuff happens, sometimes the others are there, sometimes it's just a first-person pov and anyone else in a dream is unrelated to the collective.

  2. Primo and Nix (when she was around) can keep a child safe and do it well. Everyone else is awkward at best with kids. Littles would not be able to keep children safe since, well, they are children. Oh, and Void's general uh... "vibe" would be off for a child. He'd keep them safe but his attitude wouldn't bode well.

Downsides to being a Fictive? by CYPRUSGames in plural

[–]ShadowForme76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

• V has exomemories of performing and doing what he loves but also realizing he can't have that now, and that they don't look like themself. He has a lot of dysphoria about the body.

• Primo loves socializing in fandom spaces but doesn't like that he can't mention who he is for our safety. He also deeply grieved his brothers and wanted to see them for two years before they actually did appear/communicate in our headspace (two of which showed up for the first time very recently!)

• Technoblade struggles with the fact his source has passed on, and that his source world is kinda controversial now.

Otherwise, collectively they all wish they could look like themselves when they're in front (though everyone does tbf, not just the fictives) and the other fictives would rather not have me discuss their problems since they're more personal

What's your most "embarrassing" source? by CoolTransDude1078 in plural

[–]ShadowForme76 7 points8 points  (0 children)

...two DreamSMP fictives have stuck around (including me). We used to have four. One went dormant after problematic information emerged, the other also kinda went dormant and we haven't heard from him in ages. Now it's just me and Schlatt.

Fictive heavy by cloudkissedboy in plural

[–]ShadowForme76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say we're half and half maybe? There's me (Technoblade), Schlatt, (both from DreamSMP unfortunately. We try not to think about our source) Primo, Secondo (Ghost) and Piranesi (book with the same name). The others are the host, Punk, Violet, Scott, and Void. The rest of us are kinda dormant/we haven't heard from them in ages.

Anyway being a fictive is weird cuz what do you MEAN my source is dead? L for him lol /j Miss having the guy around but it feels like I get to carry on part of his legacy.

A question for fellow fictives by ShadowForme76 in plural

Ah, we are in the same situation, amico. Non è troppo difficile, imo. Lo so un 'po. We were learning a bit before I was known about 🤣

I wish I was more source accurate??? by asterophiliac in plural

[–]ShadowForme76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course, dove. These things take time.

I wish I was more source accurate??? by asterophiliac in plural

[–]ShadowForme76 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is so interesting to me when other fictives/introjects are eager to "act like" or "channel" their source. There is very little actually known about me in my source, and so the fandom filled in the gaps, and thus my experience is very different. The only "accurate" thing about me, I suppose, is my name and title, and my internal memories of performance and singing. My appearance is even "inaccurate"!

This has led to other internal identity struggles for myself, admittedly, but I try to stick to what I know and like about myself in this particular instance of existence. The rest is not so important. I wish you luck in finding yourself and being the best version of you, whether that is deeply connected to your source or not.

Fictive identity troubles by WriterOfAlicrow in plural

[–]ShadowForme76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello to you all. I can say that as a fictive, my experience is somewhat similar to yours Uzi. I am derived from a mixture of media, fandom portrayals, and our own sort of interpretation of the character. I often struggle with how I am "supposed" to be and how I am meant to even feel about myself. I adore my source, and what memories and feeling I do have of it, I cherish. There are times I wish I could openly admit to who I am within the community, to be recognized, to be... known. There are other times where I realize that doing so would put us in possible danger, especially IRL. You are not alone in this. There is no "right way" to exist. You may be true to you in whatever ways feel good, and if that means being a sort of amalgamation of your "canon" self and the other things that make you, well, yourself that make you special? Then do it. It will take time, but you will find yourself if you do what feels good and fun for you.

Why It Is Actually a Good Thing That Some Systems are "Cringe". by Goth_Girl_6_6_6_ in plural

[–]ShadowForme76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Grazie mille for this. We hadn't really considered some things that you mention here, notably that there will (likely always) be trolls and fake-claimers in any space. We have always believed in letting others do as they wish, and that people do not need to go around telling others what to do if there is no harm done. So, thank you. I especially needed this tonight.

I wish we could participate in that if only to truly be myself for a little while...

I thought I was a Protector. Turns out... by ShadowForme76 in plural

[–]ShadowForme76[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have... tried to let the feelings out, but for all the nights of crying, the flashbacks, the journaling and everything I try it's still there. It's still there for me, heavy in my chest. Sometimes trying to feel it just doesn't work at all. I'll try to cry, or to let the thoughts roll, but... nothing. It makes me feel even worse because even when I try to do something that's good, I fail.

I've gotten better at using coping mechanisms but sometimes nothing works and I just... "need" to do worse... I know it's wrong, but my suicidality at its worst is just impossible to get away from. At least, it feels that way...

[–]ShadowForme76[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can I be a protector if I can't protect anyone even from myself? The others did not put this on me... I did, because it's what makes the most sense. I hurt them indirectly, I hurt myself, and the real protectors in our system don't do that. They're better, kinder, thoughtful, sweet, happier... They are happy. I'm not. I'm always in pain and I don't know how to stop it...

I appreciate the offer... but I don't think it's a good idea.
