Boundaries

001. Don't touch me or an alter out of nowhere irl unless you've got specific permission.

002. Don't just assume things about us.

003. Some alters are older than you think, don't treat them like children unless proven to be a child/middle/little/or something else.

004. You can vent to me or an alter, just ask first. Don't just trauma dump out of nowhere.

005. Don't treat any of my alters like one of your fictional crushes. That makes all of us uncomfortable. Especially any Call of Duty alters.

006. Don't treat us like our source, we have our own minds, thoughts and feelings whether you choose to believe it or not.

007. Some alters might be uncomfortable with you flirting with them. If they ask you not to, *respect* that decision. As for Ivan, you can *platonically* flirt with him *unless* stated otherwise.

008. Some of our alters have religious backgrounds, be aware of that.

009. Some of the alters already have lovers/partners. If they do, you may ask if you can still flirt. Respect their decision whether it is yes or no.

010. Don't tell us that we're "faking OSDD 1-b". It's disrespectful.

011. Protectors are always present in front room.

012. If you're going to go back on your word, leaving us in the dust, we will not come begging you to stay. That just won't happen at this point. I will not beg on my hands and knees anymore. If you want to leave, leave. If you come crawling back to me or anybody in my system, you will never have that same level of trust ever again. This is a warning.

013. Do not say you "claim" me, whether it be Ivan himself or any of his alters unless otherwise specified. It makes Ivan and others highly uncomfortable. You will be cut out of our life if this unwanted behavior persists.

014. This list will update periodically.
