Friends and facets
Dec. 9th, 2013 01:52 pmLast night, I asked Sofya if it was okay if my facets start talking to her. Because I've had times where my facets wanted to talk to people while I was talking to them, because there was something they wanted to say, but I couldn't let them speak because the person didn't know about my facets, it would have weirded them out, it was unexpected, etc.
So I asked my friend Sofya if my facets could say things in conversation if they want to. She said it was okay as long as I specified who was talking. I would have done that anyway. It'll be a BIT harder to tell her who's talking when they come out IRL, because I've had situations where my facets said something while I was talking and I didn't even realize it, but I'm going to be more mindful of when they speak (especially now that I recognize them as sort-of people rather than just modes I go into sometimes).
Later in our conversation, Sofya asked me if talking to my facets meant that she's going to have new friends now. I thought about it and told her that this wasn't an inaccurate description. She got very excited about this. It was really pleasant to see her excited about this, and I'm excited for my facets. Some of them are friends with each other, and all of them are more-or-less friends with me, but now they might make friends with people outside of our system.
So basically, my friend is excited and I don't know if my facets are excited, but I'm excited for them, and that makes me really happy and this is all really pleasant.
