Multiplicity

I am, as you may have guessed, new to this community.

I am not personaly multipul but I was at one point, split due to situations I couldn't handle on my own. It wasn't so much that we were two people so much as there was Me-Who-Could-Cope and Me-Who-Couldn't-Cope. I identified it as a him and him as Alexander, my older brother.
It has been three years sence I last saw him and he only came up for half an hour to beat the crap out of someone who tried to grope myself and, more importently, my sister. At the time I was furious and he just kind of showed up, took control, beat on the guy for a while, and left. The only thing my sister noticed was that I rather suddenly aquiered skill with a padded sword(I am quite hopeless at it myself) and commenced with the fight and the accompaning lecture on what is and is not appropriet to do upon meeting a young lady.
I can only assume that if I need him he'll come back but I generaly don't see him at all. the problems that split us are years past and I'm quite content with my life now.


I do live with two multipul households, one of whom is my mother and the other my 'brother'(dear friend come to live with us and decided to stay)
they are both three person households and I have met and acepted all of them that I know of.
I consider my mother's 'brothers' to be my uncles and can tell the difference between them without more then a glance. I am, I beleve, the only one who -can- tell them apart even when one of them 'flickers' in and out of corporiality in seconds. He does this occasoinaly and I am the only one(who doesn't share the body) who can catch him at it every time.
I freely admit to being alarmed but the other of my uncles at first, but considering that the first time I saw him I was eight and we were right in the midst of the fore-mentioned problems I think that's only natural.
My brother's kin can be quite odd but I do not fear them nor have I ever feared them.

There is elements of Magik in my knowing the difference between my uncles but I most cirtenly don't rely on it and do not need to do so.
As I said, I am not multipul anymore but I have a great deal of knowlage on the subject and I am quite willing to share.
I am very blunt and I will give a logical, rational awnser to a quetion I am asked. I will attempt to be tactful but if and when tact fails, I can and will be -very- strateforward, to the point of rudeness if need be. I hope that this will not offend anybody and I'm saying it now so people know it.
