Chris: Dad, are you and Buck fighting? Eddie: What? No, Buck and I are doing just fine, buddy. What made you think we were fighting? Chris: Well, it sounded like a lot of stuff was getting knocked around in your room last night, and now the both of you are walking kind of funny... Eddie, parental panicking: ...Oh. Yeah, um, I'm going to buy us some ice-cream! Buck?! Buck, resigned: Yeah, okay. This is not exactly how I thought this would go today...

I had an idea and I went for it. Switching & Co-Front emojis but they are inside a brain.

Not plural culture but any advice for a Partial-DID host to leave front or see the IW

Gotten similar asks a few time but we're finally getting around to answer it, sorry!

Here are some switching/accessing innerworld guides:

your guide to the headspace (CDD specific)

Controlled Switching

Ghost Switching

There are also many other guides out there, if anyone has any others, feel free to link them in the notes

If none of these methods work for you, that's okay. Sometimes systems just can't switch, and as a P-DID system there must be a reason that's the case. You also might be able to access the innerworld while still fronting by basically daydreaming (at least it might feel like daydreaming, as you're still to some extent grounded in your body)

[multiplicity-positivity]

Here’s some positivity for systems who rarely or never switch!

While many systems do function by members switching in and out, this is not a requirement for plurality and not necessary to be a system! A system’s validity is not tied to how often they switch, or their capability of switching at all! This post is for all the systems who rarely or never switch!

🍒 Shoutout to systems who used to switch, but who haven’t switched out in months, years, or decades!

🫐 Shoutout to systems who want to switch but haven’t been able to figure out how!

🍊 Shoutout to systems who have never switched and don’t have any desire to switch in the future!

🍇 Shoutout to paromancers, willogenic systems, and other created systems whose hosts haven’t been able to switch with their paros, willomates, or other headmates!

🥥 Shoutout to systems who have only recently managed to switch for the first time!

🍉 Shoutout to systems whose switches are rare, sporadic, and difficult to predict!

🍋 Shoutout to large systems who only have a few members who can switch in and out!

🥭 Shoutout to DID and OSDD systems who never switch - switching is not a requirement for this disorder and your disorder is not invalidated by a lack of switching!

🍐 Shoutout to systems who aren’t sure if they’ve ever switched, or who don’t know how to determine if they’ve switched in the past!

🍍 Shoutout to systems who are monoconscious, and don’t switch due to all members always fronting at the same time!

🍑 Shoutout to systems who use guides designed for paromancers to try and learn how to switch, regardless of their system’s origins!

🍈 Shoutout to individual headmates who have never fronted - fronting is absolutely not a requirement for being a valued and important member of your system!

🍓 Shoutout to systems who worry they’re faking or not actually plural due to never switching!

Remember every system is unique, and there is no one right way to be plural or experience multiplicity! You absolutely still can be plural without ever switching, and there are many other systems who are in the same situation as you! Struggling to switch or never switching does not invalidate your system or your plurality in any way - it doesn’t mean you’re not actually multiple and it doesn’t mean you’re faking one bit!

Know that we believe in you, and that your system’s validity will never be questioned here. If your system wants to switch and is trying to learn how, we wish you the very best in your endeavors! If your system never switches and you are happy and comfortable that way, that’s perfectly fine! Regardless of how your system functions or how often you switch, we want you to know that you are cared about, loved, and an integral part of the plural community just the way you are!

When You and I Collide by bixgirl1 [E, 6.1k]

If asked on his 18th birthday what he thought he’d be doing in three years, Harry never would have been able to predict that his answer would be “letting Draco Malfoy fuck me senseless over the sinks in the loo of a Muggle bar”.

This is how the story begins.

He never thinks to ask how it ends.

Tomorrow by space_wingding [E, 38.6k]

In an unfortunate twist of fate, Harry Potter is dying. Not keen to leave the world without having his story told, he commissions the successful writer, Draco Malfoy, to write his biography.

That which hurts (and is desired) by onereader [E, 19.8k]

Draco was lying still, and pale, on a bed in a private room in St Mungo’s. The sheets were white, clean, enchanted against stains, vanishing the blood that kept spilling out of him. He hadn’t moved in two days. Not a twitch of his elegant fingers. Not a blink of his fierce eyes. Harry couldn’t even see the faint flutter of his pulse in his throat from where he stood at the foot of the bed, helpless, impotent, furious.

There is nothing Harry wouldn’t do for the people he cares about. As it turns out, that might bring him everything he’s ever wanted.

System A switches in the middle of date night without realizing. Person B, their date, figures out what's happened before they do.

Has anyone ever switched in the middle of typing something and just go— "Wait that's not me. Who wrote this??"

our system has two moods:

genuine question but who decides who’s fronting? can all of yall consciously decide, or does the alter chose, or does it happen randomly?

sry if i got any terminology or anything wrong (pls correct it if i did)

It depends on the system, and systems can (usually) have multiple ways of switching.

There could be things that trigger a headmate to front, which are generally split into positive, negative, and neutral front triggers (but obviously categorising them isn't required). So for example say a headmate likes ponies, they might be positively triggered to front because the body sees a pony. Or a negative trigger could be for example a dangerous situation that triggers a protector to front.

It's also possible in some systems for a headmate to simply choose to front, which could be by them just walking into the fronting room, maybe for no particular reason, maybe because they hadn't fronted for a while and want to see what was happening, maybe because they saw something they liked but weren't automatically triggered to front because of it, or any other reason.

Sometimes another headmate can make a headmate front, usually a gatekeeper but not necessarily. One of the main roles of a gatekeeper by it's main definition is deciding who can front, but in our system anyone who's fronting can summon anyone to front (although it's easier for our gatekeepers - and often in other systems, gatekeepers don't have to front to control switching).

And then it's also possible for headmates to randomly start fronting, or at least for it to feel like it was random because you may never know if there was an actual reason for them fronting.

Of course there are a million other reasons headmates start fronting because there is a lot of diversity in systems, but these are the main ways we know of.
