<h3>Origins</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
So far as we can tell, our split happened near the end of February 2023,
|
|
on the day we received news of a family member's death. The part of us
|
|
now known as Dawn got overwhelmed, and withdrew from consciousness to
|
|
recover
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Her part of the brain had been the primary driver for some time, so the
|
|
shock of abruptly losing her presence split what remained into two.
|
|
One of those (now Rose) set about making sure the body was cared
|
|
for and that our work constraints were satisfied for the day, and the
|
|
other (now Ash) started to try and make sense of what had happened to our
|
|
mind
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Since that initial shock, we have started to blend again. While there is
|
|
still separation between parts, we share a single point of consciousness,
|
|
and generally work together in something of an approximation of how we
|
|
were before. Still kind of exploring what our new normal is, and whether
|
|
things will change more from here
|
|

<h3>Introductions</h3>
|
|
|
|
<aside>
|
|
<strong>Note:</strong>
|
|
We are three, but it is rare for any of us to be entirely absent. As
|
|
such we commonly do not distinguish who is primarily active/speaking
|
|
except with our partners and close friends, or unless it becomes
|
|
otherwise necessary
|
|
</aside>
|
|
|
|
<h4 style="color:#a4ffd4">Ash <aside>(it/?)</aside></h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The self-styled "librarian" of the system, Ash is the part of us that
|
|
has taken on the bulk of the observation, journaling, and thinking
|
|
through ramifications of what happened since our split. It has best
|
|
connection to memory of all of us, and seems to have ended up with
|
|
most of the inclination for tradition and faith as well
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Ash was also the likely source of our names, as its early observations of
|
|
'how many distinct parts of us are there, what do they all do' were made
|
|
significantly easier by naming us
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h4 style="color:#ff6b79">Rose <aside>(they/them)</aside></h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
As primary decision maker and the one who ended up with most of our skill
|
|
in coding / abstract thinking, if you were to ask "hey who's most present"
|
|
at any random time during the day it's probably them. Rose also seems
|
|
to carry most of our skills for writing
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Rose handles most of our direct day-to-day needs such as eating, doing
|
|
work, and driving around to do errands
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h4 style="color:#d8b8ff">Dawn <aside>(she/her)</aside></h4>
|
|
<p>
|
|
The emotional core of our system, Dawn is the part who kept most of the
|
|
connection to our relationships. She is the girlfriend, the parent, and
|
|
the daughter. She is also the part that shouldered most of our grief,
|
|
both leading up to our split and since then
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Dawn is also the one who carries out most of our conversations, although
|
|
as mentioned before if we have enough time to put much thought into a
|
|
message (rather than just treating it the same as speaking) Rose takes
|
|
care of that
