🐲 contact 🌈

It occurs to me that there's no good reason to have an entire contact page if one is just going to provide an email address or social media username, so after the actual contact info, I'll give you some tips for talking to us.

how to talk to us

1. What do you go by collectively?
   • We respond to Voxel, Voxels, or our IRL name if you know it. Our pronouns are it and they (both in the plural).
2. How should people refer to you?
   • If you know whom you're talking to or about individually, they would probably appreciate it if you use their individual name, but it's completely okay to use our group name if you don't know.
3. What terms do you prefer for referring to yourselves as individuals, or as a group? Is there any other terminology for yourselves or aspects of your experience that you use and want people to know, or that you dislike and want people to avoid when talking about you?
   • We usually call ourselves alters, people, or personalities. We also use species names (dragon, wolf, etc.) and system roles. We don't particularly like headmate or sysmate unless the sentence specifically describes a relationship (i.e. "X is Y's headmate."). Do not, under any circumstances, call us folkel or imply that we are not people. We're an otherkin-host, a plural system, a plural, a system, or a multiple. We do not use any descriptors involving origin or disorder (i.e. "endogenic system" or "person with DID").
4. Who in your system are people most likely to interact with?
   • You're most likely to talk to Aspen or Neil. Both of us are described on our about page. You might talk to Herobrine or one of the dog pack.
5. Will people be interacting with any child members? How should they treat them? Is there anything they should know when interacting with them?
   • The dogs are children. They're not as likely to be interested in adult topics as the rest of us, but otherwise, they have full adult capabilities and you may treat them as such.
6. Are there any system members who are nonverbal or otherwise have difficulty communicating? What should others expect when speaking with them?
   • Herobrine often has difficulty speaking out loud. Occasionally, the rest of us do as well. This is realistically unlikely to come up.
7. What should people do if they don't know who's at front?
   • You're completely free to ask if you want to know, but it's mostly a nonissue for us. If we really want you to know a certain person is fronting, we'll say so.
8. Is it okay for people to ask if they can talk to someone who isn't at front at the moment?
   • Go ahead! Just don't expect the answer to be yes. We don't have a lot of control over who's fronting.
9. If someone talks to one of you, will other system members be aware of the conversation? Will they be actively watching, or just able to remember it later?
   • Operate under the assumption that we can't hide anything from each other. We don't all remember everything, but anyone who can front will roughly share their memory with anyone else who can.
10. How out are you? What should people do when talking to people who don't know you're plural?
    • Online, we're fully out. IRL, we're out to many of our loved ones, and we don't actively hide it from everyone else. It's perfectly fine to acknowledge our plurality.
11. Your stance on being asked questions?
    • You may ask about our general knowledge, our current experiences, and our current desires. You may not ask about our personal history.
12. Is there anything else others should know?
    • If one of us refers to "I", they may be referring to specifically themself, or they may be referring to our "main" identity, which does not directly correspond to any one individual.
