What, can all senses have hallucinations now?

Of course...
12:07 AM
Did you think it was just the eyes that could be projected upon?
12:07 AM
Taste and scent are also options.

!VoidyVoid! |34LD| 9/3/2022 12:08 AM
But they aren't actually hallucinations tho, just imagining them

Yeah that would just be a visualization. There isn't really a specific term for a kinetic visualization.
12:10 AM
Either way, we do that, and also imposition, but not universally in the shower. No need to get too extracurricular.

!VoidyVoid! |34LD| 9/3/2022 12:10 AM
Now if you could project a different sense, like the sense of your spacial awareness, that could be trippy
12:11 AM
Imagine being aware of limbs that don't exist, or body parts thought up

Taking a shower with your tulpa is a good idea. I wonder why we don't do it.

What do you think phantom limbs are? I've certainly heard of people doing that before with imaginary limbs and wings and such, too. (edited)
12:12 AM
Come to think of it, I ought to shower. Then probably sleep. I'm going to duck out for tonight, see you all later.

Sleeping with and showering with your tulpa isn't always lewd When I talk to Gray in the shower I just ignore the fact he's naked. I'm typically looking at his wonderland form anyway (edited)

bruh Joey is currently using a form of a drawn character in a straight up youtube video because the characters name was also Joey. But rn we both agree that we're lazy and cant think of anything better atm

The nice thing about switching is you can focus on your form naked without having to worry about your host watching in the moment. I know they'll remember if they think about it immediately afterwards but appreciate your privacy when you get it (edited)

Switching is not an ability your tulpa learns. It's youy learning to switch to tulpa's perspective, to become her.
1:36 AM
you won't take a break during switch. It doesn't work like that. There is no blackout etc.

We do not have blackout switching, but Gray does get a break when he switches out. I don't think it's perfect, but when we have a stressed headmate switch out the other headmate switched-in can calm the body down significantly

I don't think it's ideal to plan on using switching as a long-term solution to a problem. While it can work for some, I think it isn't usually effective in addressing the issues causing the system distress.

When I switch out, I feel like I have become a program in the mind. It's weird because nothing feels like it changed (no change in vision, etc), but it seems different because now Ranger is interpreting what we see and feel.

Back to my rambling on switching: When we switch in, that headmate manifests on an unconscious level. That's part of why our switching is pretty different from some other system's- a headmate in our system can be thinking very little if at all and can still be switched in

We have already talked today about how tulpa is a character. Your identity is a character too. Tulpa's character can replace it temporarily.

After hearing people talk about "becoming" their tulpas, I have a theory that the difference is more about the interpretation of what a host is than the experience itself. It's possible to have our switching even, you would just need different beliefs on how everything works. I like to call the feeling of being alive, feeling your environment, and seeing through the eyes the stream of consciousness or SOC. If you believe that's part of the host, then it may feel like you (the SOC) are becoming the tulpa. We don't believe the SOC is a person, but we do connect to it- which I think is a different interpretation of the same experience. However, there may be some interesting consequences for seeing the SOC as the host vs believing the SOC isn't a person. If the host is the SOC, maybe the SOC would naturally prefer the "host" identity. Maybe the autopilot won't mold as easily or there's naturally more sharing between headmates. However, you can still believe in a host person and see that as different from you, it's just the collective you.

I do want a form that void wants because we want the same things, but I just see something that catches my eye and change. I have no definite form

Mika changed forms exclusively to try to cater to my whims, and that was before we were formally an item. It was very weird and annoying.

The latter two are characters so they have forms and anything else they have is just always going to be them changing shape for fun and roleplay.
