πŸ”¬ Any #plural systems out there with shell alters? Especially #polyfragmented or #osdd1a systems.

Have you& had any luck fusing or integrating them with someone inside the shell?

Ours is particularly depersonalized and while they've been very helpful in keeping us safe and hidden through the years, I'm thinking the only way we get direct access to the body and the emotions is if we re-integrate them into someone else in the system.

@shyra May I ask what is meant by Shell Alters? Feel free to say no, as we're neizher polyfrag nor 1a.

@witch

πŸ”¬ Shell Alters are always in front, and other system members blend with them in order to take front.

When a shell alter is sapient, they present the primary flavor of OSDD-1a: the Shell Alter is the host and everyone else "influences" front rather than fully switches in or out noticeably.

Ours... isn't sapient.
Well, I guess at one point they probably were; they were probably the original, but they seem to have shed nearly all of their fragments sometime early in our collective life.
