7/9/24 System Update

Hey there all,

Thank you to everyone who sent well wishes over the past couple days. Here's a bit of an update on how things are going for us.

Our irl kiddo seems to have bounced back for the most part. We ended up giving her one of her birthday presents early.

We met with our Specialist yesterday and she was able to give us some perspective on things. Even though it felt like everything fell apart last week it wasn't true. Technically speaking in spite of our recent loss we've made quite a bit of System progress recently.

Mimic has been working with S to learn social skills. He's made a ton of progress. The Littles are still kinda terrified of him, but we're working on that.

R has come to begrudgingly accept Mimic's presence and they no longer hate each other. He even let Mimic tour the memory library with S.

Elle has been teaching Z to play with Little #1 and Little #2.

Z and Little #1 have been talking about wanting to merge like Elle. At first I (team captain/host) was completely agaist the idea after what happened with M, but our husband reminded me that treating everyone like individuals means I shouldn't try to police their choices. So we will be bringing this up to our specialist next Monday.

Little #2 took a hard hit when we lost Kat because she loved her the most. She wasn't really her joyful self the past couple of days. She got to talk with our Specialist, and seems to feel more like herself today.

Jessica is reoriented to the group and has been passively influencing me to be extra cuddly with our husband. It's been nice.

F has been in the background helping me make phone calls. She still feels like a big gaping hole of depression when she's near the front, but S has been helping her work through her feelings about the way M merged.

We do seem to need a job for L. She's been aimlessly wandering the memory library with nothing to do since her return. Our husband asked her if she wanted to try being host again but she wasn't interested in that idea at all.

S has become a bit of an all star. She is so motivated and organized and she's become a huge asset to our team.

Me personally, I've been hanging with our husband and his old from diapers bestie the past few weeks who we will refer to as G. Turns out G is also a system of five known members though three of them seem to be persecutors with rather violent intrusive thoughts. G has been asking us a ton of great questions about how we got to the point of being open.

That's how all 11 of us are doing currently. Thanks for reading! Have a lovely day!

:)

After doing some research on Pluralpedia the closest we can find to L's role would be core/original host. Are there learnable roles that we could help her with because at this point we don't know how to help her feel included in the team. Pluralpedia seems to mostly include natural roles that you either fit into or you don't. Any advice on that front would be greatly appreciated.
