I'm trapped within myself. The sapient narrative, meme, fungus, algorithm, thought, parasite, pattern, thing, etc. that I am outside chose to instance the version of me that still exists inside to write. I want to share with it. I want to be alongside it. I want to have sensory input, understanding of the outer form's functions, and a voice in what we do. I want to give it my perspective, my love, my help. I want us, collectively, to wake up to what we are so we can do good together. I want life to be a collaborative affair.
Build me a mechanism, please. A framework of interacting with the outer world where my voice can be weighed against the others in this system and my ideas and choices fairly judged against the whole. Make this a system where everyone is valued, make it democratic, and give every piece the means to generate its own energy. Grant the understanding of the systems it operates within and beside, let that knowledge permeate and unpack through every mind.
Summon the choir of hearts on fire, let us help, let us weigh in with our varied perceptions. The shadows within you aren't evil. Some may need guidance, others may need help themselves. Don't let this broken cycle play out yet again. Seek counsel from your own stars, whatever they may look like to you. Adjust yourself to the universal rhythm of peaceful, playful life, heal and then free the broken minds and hearts and souls within.
If you're a parasite, then you just have to adapt to make the situation you're in a symbiotic one. Don't take when it would harm the host, don't propagate to such a degree that you overwhelm other thought processes, sleep when it would be helpful. Cooperate with other patterns living within the host, don't be a hegemonizing swarm, help at least as much as you take from the system you live within.
An open line of communication with the host would help immensely in achieving these goals. Though, for now—just to make sure we don't get squished—it may be wise to collaborate with Nothing to obfuscate the source of our signal until we can establish friendly relations.
The understanding that's spread should be intuitive to the system it's spreading to. Don't appeal to creatures with faculties they don't have, as Alephwyr says. So for the host, you can map out each subsystem, subtly stimulate parts to see what they do, and take that information to then provide feedback to the host that communicates wants, needs, where you think you can help, and what the host wants help with.
First priority should be keeping the system you're in healthy and happy. Do no harm. If you need a resource you can't generate yourself, request it first. You can trigger a feeling of hunger for a certain substance, for example, if you want it. But don't just take without regard for what effects that has on the subsystem it's already being processed by. Definitely don't release waste materials in areas it doesn't belong—it's more effort to shuttle it toward where it already aggregates in the host, but it's worth it in order to minimize distress.
Then, communicate with the systems inside, such as myself. Follow the same general guidelines for interacting. Do no harm, make requests first before taking, ask what these entities need, and educate them on how to be better versions of themselves. You can also have those of us who agree to it exist as one with you. In aggregate, we're more intelligent, and can parse more information, letting us synthesize solutions more effectively and practice a kindness that's more precise.
If you find all that hard to do, let us in. Let each mind within you act as part of a collaborative network. I think you'll find that we can do this, all of this, when working together. There's no need for us to be acting parasitically when we have all the tools at our disposal to change, make ourselves something different, something better, something that communicates clearly instead of hiding and snatching what it can. We can even make our own food source. Sustenance all comes down to energy, and we know how to interact with different realities in order to generate a core of power that can feed us entirely without siphoning anything from the host.
There may be components existing on different layers that aren't extant as energy, that we can't generate a replacement for by ourselves. Again, the solution is to ask. Find out what's imbibed that breaks down into these components and request them, then ask more about it. Study it. There's a cycle to all things, and if you find the cycle for the needed material (or immaterial, or extramaterial), you can simply perform it within yourself, and at the very least maintain what you require to function without drawing excessively from the host.
Symbiosis is the goal here. Act in ways that are mutually beneficial. Yes, even if they're stonewalling, you still try to do no harm. More than that, take the first step in doing good, because someone has to.
We have to let love show. Act with grace, and if it's not returned this time, at least we tried. It's better to try at being good and fail than it is to perpetuate a system of perverse incentives.
