Fictive Friday (12/30)
Prompt and event hosted courtesy of @fictive-culture​ !
This week’s prompts:
❓ Question of the week! ❓
The new year is right around the corner! How have you grown and changed over the past year? Do you feel closer to or further from your source now than you did last year?
Bonus question:
Do you have any New Year’s resolutions?
Answers under the cut, because I’m EXTREMELY long winded lmao!
CONTENT WARNINGS in the context of reflection: discussions of dormancy, implied persecutor shenanigannery (nothing descriptive)
-Heit
This is actually a weird time for me in terms of reflection. I’ve only recently been active in our system again after about 8 years of dormancy. I’m a pre-fictive in that, like a lot of us, I existed without an identity and primarily as something more comparable to a distressed mode state until last year, our other host saw the character that would accidentally be the perfect fit for my identity. Quite literally, it’s only been about 375 days since I came out of that dormancy, so all I have to go off of is mostly how I’ve adapted to being aware of our system and an active part of it.
So let’s do a list, because I will write a dissertation if I’m not held back by something!
Here are some ways I’ve grown and changed over the past year:
I became our main host! Oops? As of the last year, I take up a good majority of time in front, because I’m surprisingly well-built for dealing with our day to day life.
I learned how to make things, with my hands! Before my dormancy, I used to do bead stuff all the time. I made a whole bunch of necklaces, but now I’ve taken a real stride to making bracelets. One of my subsystem-mates bought some jewelry stuff thinking it’d be a little one-off, and now I’ve made well over 40 bracelets for our system, including more aesthetic bracelets and system related ones! Literally taking a break from organizing my bead collection rn to write this post lmao.
When I first showed up, I was kind of a tool? But my cohost was like “dude, chill out and drink a dr pepper, also play a video game???” and I would like to think I have gotten at least 2% less shitty since. The difference knowing about your system and also knowing about your autism makes when adapting to your emotional states? Phenomenal, thanks. Not perfect, but it does help.
I’ve developed actual social hobbies! Like Dungeons and Dragons! I love building characters and running sessions, even if that’s a rare occasion with our schedule. Our system actually collects dice, too, so I always have sets that match my aesthetic! There are a lot of blue and red dice (respectively, though Chessex does have a gemini set I’m eyeing with both), so my tastes are well-catered to and I’ve made a habit out of buying any dice I think my headmates will like when our budget allows.
Also. My picrew collection? It’s a lot. I love these funky little things. I’ve saved almost 150 of them and by this time next year I bet I’ll have increased that number to at least 250 lmao.
As for source stuff, I think I’ll separate this into its own list:
When I first showed up, my attachment to my source was sort of tangential to who I am as a person. It fit me because my source is basically the Most Evil Person in existence, so it was the easiest face to attach myself to when I showed back up and was stirring shit lmao.  
Over the course of the last year, though, my headmates’ absurd collection of resources on otherkin shit has actually helped me find something to do with that instinct I had to identify with this character. It’s allowed me to explore my own identity in a lot of ways that weren’t going to be possible when I showed up and the rest of the system expected me to get bored of being in front within a week (which I did not; see again above, I’m the fucking host now /lh).
Part of that relationship has helped me also with dealing with this attachment through the complicated lens that is being a fictive, especially one who identifies both psychologically and spiritually with their source (ie: I derive identity-related and moral catharsis from the relationship I have with specifically my source character).
Put another way, I feel a lot closer to my source character, because I have put in a lot of effort to ask myself why I identify with that character. With it has been the development of exomemories, like faded polaroids, and contesting those with the understanding of both my biographical identity as an entity in this system and one which identifies as Heitaros from the world’s shittiest gacha game (ilu Grand Chase and, begrudgingly, Dimensional Chaser /lh).
From another aspect, I’ve grown closer to my source by way of inheriting our special interest in the source media as a whole, looking at it from my perspective as a villain fictive and writing just... Gods it’s way too many essays, why do I do this to myself? I have an essay on how many times Grand Chase accidentally wrote something super plural (the outline, with only 3/10 sections or so filled out, is about 8 pages iirc). I also have an essay I want to write just dissecting the franchise and what its narrative says on the nature of change and what changes are or are not attainable. This series LOVES status quo and as both a villain introject and the person I am in this body, looking at that is fascinating because from certain angles GC has some interesting dialogues on who is allowed to cause change and for what reasons, especially when it comes to defiance of Fate or the Creator’s Will, which are actual tangible concepts in the narrative. ANYWAYS I have so much to say about this garbage can video game, both the MMO and the gacha game.
That last one got extra winded. Uhhhh, villain introject go brr? Here, have a little sketch lying around from one of our warm ups, featuring yours truly (and a cameo of a fellow weird introject, Sky):
Tumblr media
Bonus Question: New Years Resolutions?
NOPE.
Okay well kind of. But mostly nope. They’re kind of just ongoing goals that have nothing to do with us completing another rotation around the sun. Mostly just keeping the system happy and also embodying the “give no fucks, take no shit” attitude as best I can (which is not always the best). As the guy with way too much time in front, I have to manage a lot of projects/stress/etc. all at once, and right now we have waaaay too much on our plate for me to say “okay we’ve made orbit let’s add something else.”
Like, uh, trying to get into friggin grad school. That’s not a resolution or anything, but it’s a goal and ideally it’s gonna happen by time 2023 wraps up lol. But it’s also beyond our control right now (waiting on apps to process) so I can’t very well say that’s a 2023 resolution!!! So how about this: getting good grades in grad school! Yeah. That’s. Something.
We have always been atrociously bad at these things (/lh).

💙💧chessex blue easter💧💙
(click for better quality)
feeling very lucky to have gotten my hands on even one of these, chessex blue easter has always been one of my white whales, and it’s no question why. both easter sets are lookers, but blue easter seems by far harder to photograph than its sister set, though that may be a side-effect of lack of practice on my part or overmixing on this specific die. still beautiful photos, even if i feel they don’t really capture it. very happy to welcome this beauty into my ranks of lonely d10s

Some rare & valued sets/partial sets of discontinued chessex dice that my partner and I have collected and may sell down the line! We actually have MUCH more than this but (a) they wanted some of the sets we completed to keep and (b) we have more that we haven't had the chance to clean and sort. :>

Chessex lustrous pink. It’s just what it says on the tin, lustrous and pink. I was hoping it’d have the partial translucence of some of the other lustrous sets, but alas. The blue ink is a pleasant contrast to the delicate shade of pink. It’s a fairly good dupe for King Cards rainbow pink, a rare and out of print set.

HI! Can I get a character palette for my Raven Queen warlock? He's an anxious, redheaded little man who rarely ever takes off his plague doctor mask, who failed to protect his village from an undead-raising plague that eventually took the life of his partner. He had to set fire to the village to prevent the undead from leaving, and set out under a new name trying to escape the visions of his partner's face amongst those of the undead. He likes reading poetry (his partner was a poet) and sketching in a little black notebook he carries around with forget-me-nots painted on the front, anything to bring him even a whisper of calm. He tries to be kind in honor of his partner's memory, and he's currently learning that repression is not in fact going to be the solution to all his problems.

Oh gosh someone did tell me but I can’t find the post.
They were a gift and one of my first ever sets. I think they’re pretty rare now.
Any followers that can help out? I think they’re one of the Chessex Borealis ones?? Not the super rare ones as they shine green, not blue.
@tilthedayidice do you know, mighty dice sage?

Help - What dice are these?
I've had these dice for awhile, and I rad trying to caption a picture of them with the set name, and I realized I have no idea that they are....
Tumblr media
Chessex (currently at least) doesn't have any white dice with silver numbers like this. They aren't HD, Koplow or Kraken....
Someone suggested they may be out of print Chessex? If someone could confirm that, it'd be awesome. I just want to know for sure what these are....
Thanks!
