A few questions on how systems work

Hello everyone,

I am a system member of the lj account I am posting with. You can find postings y or system, as well as a picture gallery of us on our LJ, feel free to add us :)My name is Hayden and I am otherkin (kitsune) and I am interested in how systems work.

Due to certain events in the body's main personnas/hosts life, I have been fronting for over a day now, which is the longest for me ever. Usually its a few hours at the most. With Sam (the host) having a girlfriend, its awkward when she wants to see her boyfriend, and one of us are out, and she will usually tell us to go away. I'm not usually offended but Alex gets very offended by that, as he loves fronting and experiencing the world first-hand.

Do you think thats fair at all?

Also, when fronting today, I was surpised that I knew things, even though I, myself had not ever learned them. For instance I went to the hospital and knew the way, I knew the dr's name, even how to cook food. Does anyone else experience this sort of universal know-ho when fronting? I just thought it was interesting, thats all :)

Many systems have shared memories. It's not just you. :)

It's rare that someone will ask for someone who's not fronting to come out or whatnot, but if they do I usually just pass the message along or if possible, give way to that person. (The last time this happened, I just took a message for her, as we were about to leave the house and therefore there wasn't time to come out and chat.)

I wonder what its like to have discreet memory and senses. Not having the ability to know what's going on with the outside world, or only from second hand knowledge.

I mean, even though I can interact with him and things, its altering his perceptions and not physically reacting with the world around me. (Or else you'd be the second to realize that...)

Yeah, it's like that with Misch too. We can interact with each other, but she can't interact with anyone else (unless she's sharing in the body, she can't take hold of it by herself). Which I think is about the same with you, if I recall correctly?

And she has memories from before being here, but that's partially through my reading/watching her canon and partially just her memories. Lili too to a lesser extent, but having no canon I can't just look up things, either. :P

The others in this group I'm a part of, the ones who never front at all, they stay back in the realm and have no idea about what goes on here in this realm. I guess they would know if someone else told them. I'm stuck here fronting for the past 3 months, so I guess I always know what goes on here whether I want to or not. :(
