Regression “littles” are individuals who regress to a younger or less developed mindset. Age regression can either be voluntary or involuntary, and for many people it can mean different things. For the most part, when someone age regresses they will act like a child and engage in childlike behaviors.
System littles are children in a system, usually a DID or OSDD-1 system. These individuals are not regressing, they are actual children, mostly under the ages of 12, but some systems may choose to label all of their minor alters/headmates as littles. Some littles act like their ages, whatever it may be, while others may act older and more mature– it all depends on the alter/headmate. Some littles may also be age sliders or ageless, meaning they don’t have an age or it’s changing.
Like anybody, system littles can also regress, especially if they’re an older little or even a teenager. This usually works like any other form of regressing, with the alter/headmate switching to a younger mindset without their age actually changing. Once again, every system is different, and regressing can look different for each one.
I know I have a few syskid accounts following my page, and I’d like to thank all of you for your support! You’re always more than welcome on my blog and even send in requests for syskid-themed posts if you like– but keep in mind I’m a singlet and definitely can’t speak for any plural communities.
Princess Celestia - Her most favorite little, Celestia would always be teaching you to cast spells and play with magic with her. The two of you would sit together in the early mornings and late afternoons, watching the sun rise and set. She would call you her sunshine.
Princess Luna - Bedtime is your favorite time with Luna! She always makes time for your bedtime stories, and once you’re asleep she visits you in your dreams, where you can play and have fun together. She would call you her starlight.
Princess Cadence - Always showering you with affection, Cadence would always be giving you hugs, cuddles, and kisses. You would go out on playdates, having the best time together! She would call you love/lovey.
Shining Armor - His favorite game to play with you would be knights and dragons, using toy shields and foam swords to fight off evil and come rescue you– sometimes with you rescuing him instead! He would call you his little knight.
Thorax - He would take you out on adventures in the forest, going sightseeing and collecting teensy bugs! You’d catch them in small containers and study them all day, eating a packed picnic lunch, before setting them free. He would call you bug.
Princess Skystar - Similarly with Pinkie Pie, the two of you would always be throwing little parties together! You would also make arts and crafts out of shells you found on one of your doezens of beach trips. She would call you shelly.
Queen Novo - The two of you would have spa days together, getting funny-looking facials and relaxing bubble baths. She would call you her seastar!
Age Dreaming - Not technically a regression, age dreaming is when someone pretends to be younger than they are, without actually mentally regressing. This can mean watching cartoons, playing with toys, and even dressing up in onesies and using pacis. Someone may age dream for a number of reasons, such as coping with trauma or stress, or just for fun.
Pet Dreaming - Also not technically a regression, pet dreaming is when someone pretends to be an animal, without actually switching to the headspace of one. This can mean walking on all fours, eating similar foods to the animal they’re pretending to be, and making animal noises. Someone may pet dream for a number of reasons, such as coping with trauma or stress, or just for fun.
Partial/Half Regression - When someone regresses or switches to a younger or less developed mindset, but only partially or not all the way. Regression as a whole has the ability to fluctuate and even be fluid, though this is the most common term for a fluctuated regression.
Age Regression - When someone switches to a younger or less developed mindset. One can regress to any age, but the ages of a toddler to small child are the most common. Regressors sometimes do kid’s activities, watch children’s shows, and uss pacis, sippy cups, and other tools. Age regression can be voluntary/a choice, or involuntary/not a choice. Someone may age regress for a number of reasons, such as coping with trauma or stress, or just for fun.
Pet Regression - When someone switches to an animal or less developed mindset. One can regress as any animal, but the most common are cats, dogs, bunnies, lambs, and bears. Regressors sometimes play like animals, walk on all fours, and even make animal noises. Pet regression can be voluntary/a choice, or involuntary/not a choice. Someone may pet regress for a number of reasons, such as coping with trauma or stress, or just for fun.
