What are you most excited to see or do in Sweden?
(Violet 💜) Hang out with our friends, of course!!!! Besides that, we do have things we'd like to do on our own, that we don't think our friends would enjoy as much. We wanna do lots of birdwatching and add some cool European species to our life list, and try to do some herping to find and catch some reptiles and amphibians (there are 3 snake species and 3 lizard species in Sweden, all found in the area we'll be staying, so we want to find as many as we can, especially an adder, which would be our second ever venomous Snake!) We also want to spend time on the coast, we fell in love with the ocean in New Zealand and have been longing for it ever since, and want to do more tidepooling (searching in pockets of water left in rocks by the receding tide for cool sea creatures hiding in them!)

Does your system ever have to hold a vote to come to a decision on something?
(Violet 💜) Usually most of us tend to be in agreement about what to do. Sometimes if we're not sure if we're doing the right thing we'll ask any headmates who want to answer for their opinions, but I guess that's the closest we get to a vote.

What type of system are you? [ex: DID / OSDD / UDD ]
(Giulia 🌸) We are undiagnosed, and diagnosis and these system categories are relatively unimportant to us, as we know who we are and we don't feel any need to seek help or "treatment" for our plurality. We do not meet the dsm-5 requirements for DID, as that requires amnesia (we experience amnesia only rarely) and for our system to cause us distress or inhibit our regular life (which it does not). So I'd assume we'd be categorized as OSDD.

why are we still here
(Giulia 🌸) because there is so much to see in this world!!! And there are so many people here who love us and make our life feel worth living!!!

what is the worst type of bug
(Giulia 🌸) Bedbugs and lice are the worst!!! Makes our skin itch all over just thinking about them!

How does dreaming work with plurality, if you know? Do members jointly experience dreams? Or perhaps have separate ones?
(Emmi 🧲) We've never thought about this!! As far as we can tell, our dreams are shared, we often switch overnight and can still mostly remember our dreams no matter who wakes up fronting.

I hope your trip goes well! Have you been on other similar trips before?
(Giulia 🌸) thank you !!!! We went on a similar trip to visit friends in New Zealand this past April (one of the friends we were visiting then is also coming with us to Sweden!!!!), and that was lots of fun and led to some important self-discovery! That was our first trip outside of North America and our first trip without at least one of our family members!

Your pfp is really cute!! Is it representative of the whole system or particular members?
(January 🍂) We made this pfp before we discovered our plurality, so we're not certain who, if anyone, it represents. But at this point, it's become representative of our whole system! We've also been working on picrews for each of our headmates, to represent everyone and help everyone gain a stronger self of self-identity.

Do you have any memories of being a singlet or were you always plural?
(January 🍂) It's hard to say! We only discovered our plurality in March of this year, so we believed that we were a singlet up until then. Looking back, we can recognize some of us in some of our memories, but we can't tell if we were ever a singlet or at what point we became plural.

How is your experience in Canada? Do you like it there?
(Erika 📚) We've lived in Canada our whole life, so we don't really have much else to compare it to. We really appreciate how easy it's been to access gender-affirming care and the level of acceptance for queer folks, at least in larger cities. However, despite being a good place to live for the most part for us, living here our whole life has made us kind of bored of it, and we'd love to be able to live in another country, at least for a little while

Has your system experienced splits or headmates otherwise arriving that you perceived as they happened? Or have they all only been found after the fact?
(Erika 📚) As far as we're aware, no. We do have two headmates, Willow and The Beloved Goddess Erimanthea, who both believe themselves to have appeared in last year, but before we knew we were plural. So it's possible we'll still experience this soon!

Are your interests shared or diverse across your system? How often is there consensus on what to do?
(Emmi 🧲) Our biggest interests are shared across likely all of our members, but certain headmates have their own separate interests, like January is especially interested in history, and Strawberry loves to get all dresses up cutely and put together outfits.
We tend to get along well and want to do many of the same things, but there's often at least someone going against the majority. But we try to check in and do things that they want too, so even if there's not consensus, we try to keep everyone happy <3
