Alters played by Actors | Valentine's Special

[@SandyTube]

Sometimes my brain forgets that these men are actors. Scrolling through the first thing I thought was "Ed?" and then I realized Ed couldn't be physically here. I've just gotten so used to the actors being Ed and Jamie.

[@thehappyplanningmom4141]

I know right. They always do such an amazing job.

[@justaperson1918]

I know! Especially since I've only seen a few videos and the first one I watched was with the actors

[@taylorsart4646]

Honestly sometimes I forget they aren’t actually Ed and Jamie

I cracked up at Ed's "cheeky bitch" reply to Jaime calling him a creepy crawly at 2:46 this is so kool and they both did wonderfully. I love these c: Ed and Jaime are so adorable together

[@wolffisu]

I laughed hysterically at midnight and heard it echo throughout the house... I'm visiting home and definitely woke someone up.

"roses can be green... they *can't* be green" im crying

[@WolfLykaios]

Ok, I just realized that when I requested Ed to sweep Jamie off his feet, JESS ACTUALLY ANSWERED ME and told me that it was the other way around. I'm freaking out over here. Also, KZbin, you are supposed to inform me about this stuff, damn it.

[@babyggukie3580]

KZbin is broken

[@dragangirl8]

Tom is such a good actor! I love the commitment he brings every time he snaps into 'Ed'. Jaimes actor has come a long way, and while you can see him thinking about what jaime might say from time to time, he tends to nail it. His voice seems to crack with the real emotion hes expressing as jaime and it's coming together so beautifully. I'm so glad you were able to get the resources to work on this to the point where you're able to forget these people dont live on the same earth as us, most of the(ir) time.

[@shrimpy5296]

the way he looks at ed fondly is just so sweet and you can almost see the love radiating off of him...he's so good at what he does

[@Handle70770]

As someone who travels A LOT - tiny soaps , shampoos and conditioners saved us!

[@summahthevegan3796]

I take the good ones as they're useful for an overnight bag

[@summahthevegan3796]

Also LOVE your name

[@juliusroman8616]

wait, why are we talking about soap? Oops, sorry thought this was a different video comment section, the video where they did a reenactment of the alters arguing.

[@RiverEngland1995]

This is literally the most adorable thing we’ve ever seen

[@elenamusiclife214]

It is nice that other systems have alters that are in relationships, we have a couple and they recently tied the knot and even took in the littles as their children. It is nice knowing we aren't alone, thank you for helping us and everyone learn.- Sunset System

[@alte21]

this just makes me wonder if all these domestic-ness happen in the inner world as well , with ollie and his siblings. theyre the perfect happy family everyone desires to be a part of

[@MultiplicityAndMe]

yeet it's ya boy they were 100% the family that I wanted and that Ollie is lucky enough to have 🥰🥰🥰

[@ashleyp5402]

"any hole's a go as a sexuality" I DIED omg this was both amazingly funny and amazing to watch, thanks for this ^_^ also those flowers Jamie gave Ed at the end were beauuutiful

[@liampeace1996]

Credit to the actors who portrayed the alters, really got into the roles and made them real people (even though they already were).

[@emilyfletcher7124]

This is all my gay heart wants honestly

[@-csotanypure-5106]

I'm not even gay but YAS!

[@musicfeedsyoursoul8070]

I love that Ed puts notes in Jamie's lunch!!!!!!

[@fsociety2thearttrain]

I'm crying this is so sweet... We really needed to hear this message right now. My long term partner broke up with me because of my DID, so it's been hard for us to even love ourselves. This is the message we need- to focus on loving all the parts of our system 💜

[@MultiplicityAndMe]

Lunar System I’m so sorry to hear that! But yes! Love you first and foremost no matter what!!! 💖

[@babyggukie3580]

Poor thing! I hope all of you get better

[@gdhggdvdghtg9805]

Sending love ❤️❤️❤️

[@blueriver.]

OH MY GOSH SO WHOLESOME I JUST MANAGED TO SOMEHOW PULL A MUSCLE JUST FROM SEEING THIS GLORIOUS THUMBNAIL

[@Sheuto]

I was so confused when I saw it at first I didn't see other videos with actors before, so I was like: Wait, how are they here?! Aren't they alters? What is going on? Am I in the inner world? AM I AN ALTER?

[@gothsharpayevans]

i think introducing the actors has been such a great and interesting way to get the message across, and it’s nice for the regular viewers to see the boys “irl” lol. would love to see more of all of them 🖤

[@Justchillin414]

When ed was tickling jamie it was so funny I kept playing that part over d over ed instantly stop straight up just to do it

[@thehappyplanningmom4141]

I seriously love these guys together, perfection. Kudos to the actors they always do amazing. Well done guys. And great choice jess.

[@categranskog2527]

i was rolling even from the intro!! “it’s like dirty talk to me.” “medulla oblongata” i literally hollered! you guys are always so funny and the actors are wonderful as usual!

[@thesongbirdsystem3705]

The ending @10:50's got me in tears. I absolutely love how you've gotten the chance to give the boys their own voices and faces and that you've had the kindness and confidence to show us these intimate sides of them. It's a blessing and we are proud of you every single day. Best love and wishes from the Songbirds ❤💛🏳️‍🌈☀️🦋🎶✌

[@hannahbarrett1221]

Finally got to the ending. Tears are definitely flowing. I don’t think Priscilla ever stopped loudly (and internally) saying “AWWWW” the whole time 🤣

[@hippiestoner3411]

Wait... how does Ed and Jamie feel about this😂😂😂 i love this so much and it makes me so happy like damn can i get me a mans like that plz Ps don't worry Ed im not gonna steal ya mans

[@MultiplicityAndMe]

They wrote the script 😂😂😂 word for word it’s their responses! Haha x

[@crystalrobinson643]

@@MultiplicityAndMe have they watched the reenactment? How did they like it?

[@floraellesse4440]

MultiplicityAndMe how do they write the script? Did they do it when they were co-conscious?

[@leoral2228]

Angelique Wertheimer most likely

[@tyrakristiansen7188]

The actors chemistry is amazing, i truly do believe that they're in love! That's a difficult thing for actors to do, mad props to them!

[@thescintillaproject6463]

I kinda feel guilty in how much I love this, to be honest. Like I love being able to really see what the alters look like, but I feel guilty that seeing them through their actors makes them more real to me than when I see them through Jess's body? It feels bad, coz they are as real as Jess, but they are feeling more real watching an actor portray them. Am I making sense?

[@doflya129]

The Scintilla Project I think because we’re used to dealing with people with the visuals of them being shown not just hearing their voices unlike Jess or the system who can see them we can’t. Like if you talk to someone on the phone is different then that of video call

[@missundies]

I still feel that it's more real when I see them in the Jess body, that's their body language and I don't know..I just see them 100% in the Jess body (:

[@YugSihtTsuj]

Well, to be fair, that's pretty much an actor's job: to make whomever they're portraying as "real" as possible in the eyes of the audience/viewers.

[@Sophie-vw5ol]

You dont have to feel guilty about such a thing at all. Its just easier to see two actors which potray a couple because you cant see this on the system. And this is exactly the thing their want to visualize us.

[@gdhggdvdghtg9805]

Well, I do feel this way too. Probably bcuz the first multiplicity and me video I saw was the headspace conversation where actors were the one portraying the alters. First impressions I guess... 😂

[@gxilds420]

Video: 6 hours ago All the comments: 5 days ago KZbin: ha, you fool.

[@Adam1984_]

They released it to Patrons early as an unlisted video, I think.

[@ithinkimremus3707]

".... he would take the sink with him if he could." Does this remind anyone else of Ross from friends?

[@RhoadesLessTraveled]

Literally teared up at the end. Tom and Dave embody Ed and Jamie so well. I truly forget staring at them that they aren't truly there. This was so sweet though and I'm glad we get a look at what their love is like. Truly so pure and beautiful. Happy Valentines day everyone! Sending love! 🌻💛

[@cecefernandes5657]

KZbin has failed me and I didn't know this existed until now 😭 This is really sweet and beautiful❤

[@AndrewJohnson-it8pt]

The ending really touched me. I'm dealing with DID and most of the parts, I don't have connection with them, and push all of them away that it makes me want to scream and it leaves me stressed. I originally told my therapist I wanted us to become a whole, but now I'm having doubts about it. Anyone help? Would really be appreciated.

[@MultiplicityAndMe]

Take things a step at a time. The step is to heal and recover, but don’t worry about final fusion until your journey is nearly finished (at least; that’s our plan!) you’re doing amazing just by accepting and appreciating your parts! Every day is a step further

[@mikelloyd6567]

I agree with Jess, no need to make any permanent choices, take your time and work out between all of you what will work best.

[@kaleidoscopingme]

I am right there with you. Communication is the Most important and it can be blocked if one or more Parts are scared... mabe Start by making the comming togehter as a Team the priority. Becomming a whole can be verry scarry for manny Parts cause they think you just want to get rid of them... it's not fun to be overrunn by someones descission... it's like you have manny people that all have a voice and a opinion. It takes allot of efford on your part to show them that you are worth of theyr Trust. Do you know the movies Horton hears a Hoo? It may help you understand better... ; ) First and formost they want to Bee heard and accnowleged. You need to come to the point where you can belive yourselfe. It helps to collect evidence that tey are there and real. Ask them to show you that you are not imagining. Tell then you want to belive but that you struggle with it. This is what helped me. It can feel like self Talk at first but they will answer when they feel Safe enought to do so. It's verry important that you are at a Safe place for that to happen. We had to move first. So they Would feel save enought to show up and let me know it. What ever it takes is what it takes you are worth the efford. And Systems like Jess s and Piniata and DissociaDID and Acrylic and Aether and and...are proof to me that there is Hope. We write on the mirrows that helps to keep up with appointments and Alters. I Ask them about theyr Name and stuff. I am sorry this feels all over the place and I am sure that there are several people that wanted to say something and our grammar might be off😅😏 I hope we could help you a little Bit but we are in Chaos so If you want to return the favor go ahead 😅🙂 or anny one It's like too much going on Outside as well as inside and too much pressure... now the body is sick and I get to be stuck in it yay. How do you Deal with the Tornado inside and the Chaos and confusing and and heeelp is there a switch or something to turn it off???

[@kiwikeys7707]

Im officially stealing the "I'm gay Jackie Chan" line 😂😂bloody love it

[@chrischavis6968]

I absolutely love this. We have a couple in our DID system. That would be myself (Chris) and my love Kristine. Though we don't have 15 years like you to, we've had a rough and Rocky 2 years together but I think the rough and rockiness made us stronger. Forced us to learn more and more about eachother. Turned out to be a good thing. Because I love her even more now.

[@maryamtara2934]

God bless you guys💕

[@RoryViolet]

I’m glad you guys are happy together and I hope you continue to be 🖤🖤

I Need This

[@maggie-maeenticknap6262]

Could easily believe that these two are genuinely in love. They do a beautiful job representing Jamie and Ed!

[@princecozmoz3833]

It keeps popping up in my brain that these are actually Jamie's and Ed's answers and it makes this ten times better.

[@DIDandMe]

Omg we LOVED this! It was soooooo adorable and they are so cute and funny together. Particularly loved the gay Jackie Chan, black belt of style, and the bit about having how he loves Ed's curves ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@brinashiloff3439]

This was so beautiful. We don’t really get to see them interact often but when we do it’s always so sweet. Was this acted out or were these Ed and Jaimie’s real responses? I can’t even tell anymore the actors are so good.

[@MultiplicityAndMe]

Brina Shiloff Ed and Jamie wrote their responses to a script 😄

[@albino_dragon2447]

I got the WiFi on my flight and I’m ready to watch!!! 😍😍

[@MultiplicityAndMe]

Have a lovely flight!!!

[@blueriver.]

I'm non-stop smiling ear to ear!! This is so beautiful and SO much fun ❤❤

[@nicolelatson7799]

I absolutely cannot send enough love for this. The wonderful actors bring Ed and Jamie to our world so wonderfully. I was reminded of how my boyfriend and I met and all the silliness we have in our relationship.

[@confusedsystem5158]

I love this video so much! We have a married couple in our system and feel very strongly that inner system romantic relationships need to be not only accepted but treated as no different from two non-did people dating. Congrats on 15 years Ed and Jamie!

[@crystalrobinson643]

Why is Ed me lol I love that someone else has the same feelings i do on things. Makes me feel more normal. Love you Ed!

[@LeeDee5]

Great lads these two. I hope everyone has a wonderful Valentine’s Day.

[@aaronwilder2775]

I decided to watch this on Valentine's Day, and oh my god this was adorable. Tom and Dave are seriously amazing actors, i believed they were Ed and Jamie. And also, everyone who may be spending today with their partner or just hanging out with friends, Happy Valentine's Day :)

[@symphonyenya5017]

I literally cried. This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen. Ignore the haters. You guys are doing amazing things for the community -Mercy

[@prettyhalo2girl]

I love this! I love that these were Jamie and Ed’s actual words and not just the actors guessing their answers. Amazing job guys

[@rosiepenguin]

Was smiling all the way through (with a tear in my eye by the end) guess I really should focus on loving myself this Valentine's day

[@VanNessy97]

The mutual agreement between all of your alters and all of these actors in order to produce content like this. The serotonin levels in my brain are ASTRONOMICAL.

[@peachstardrop]

I love how you can see Tom trying not to laugh at 8:00 So many laughs were had doing this I bet lol "Gay Jackie Chan" omg

[@MultiplicityAndMe]

Just wait for the bloopers 😂

[@OrangeN00dle]

Everytime they're affectionate with each other I immediately pause the vid & shout at them to "stop!" I need a sec, cause it's too much, THEY are too much. I can't handle the KILIG I feel. They are so cute 😍

[@TheEntropySystem]

STANDING OVATION!!!!!

[@viktoria2476]

I am shipping Jamie and Ed so hard 😅😍

[@mandyb5167]

[@fabiennesimonse243]

This is so fricking adorable, wonderfully done! The actors did an amazing job 🥰

[@Justchillin414]

YES. I will be able to watch this Time yay

[@beccaburrington9196]

Ed and Jamie- the end of that video was so sweet and poignant. I was teary-eyed. Very well written/said. It's been great seeing you work on functional integration (not fusion). I think Ed' s journey must be encouraging for a lot of systems out there. I love the hashtag #loveeachpart. The more I learn about mental health, the more it seems like love and acceptance of all parts of self is the beginning and end goal of getting to a healthy mental state- whether you're part of a system or a single consciousness struggling with that self destructive, or anxious, or etc part.

[@Cutiepiedarlin]

@MultiplicityAndMe for me it helps to capture the complexity of the personalities inside you. It makes them feel real and I feel helps the audience see them more as individualised people as opposed to different parts of Jess? I don't know if that makes sense and I'm not did myself so maybe I shouldn't comment but Im a theatre student that is so passionate about how drama can help to explore mental illness as well as navigate life with a unique sense of empathy, as a performance student I think projects such as these are absolutely incredible and so much bigger than just oh look at me on a stage

[@blueblue7775]

This was so amazing omg it’s so cute it made me tear up there such a wonderful couple it’s like they were made for each other happy Valentine’s Day an I hope yours is amazing watching this made my day I hope sometime in the future I can have a relationship like Ed an Jamie’s an u were worried about the video Jess it was amazing I’m so glad we found your channel I hope your day is amazing an we wish u all the best❤️

[@jenniferstoehr793]

And thank you for making me laugh so hard I cried! I had tears streaming down my face! 😂😂 Ed: "Its like a daily fu××ing workout." Jaime: "I cant imagine you working out." Ed: "Hairdryer in one hand, hairspray in the other. I'm like the gay Jackie Chan. I'm a black belt in style."💋 I totally hope that was an Ed response and not just Tom add-libbing. Either way it sounds like what Ed would say when he's feeling sassy! ❤

[@hellencerdas8636]

They are so cute, I'm about to cry just for their cuteness 💖

[@mitica-mar]

I was smiling the WHOOOOLE video!! They are amazing actors and surely portray Ed and Jamie’s relationship perfectly. Which is beautiful

[@Sarteth]

I just want to thank Jess, Ed, and Jamie for doing this and allowing this little insight. It is downright heartwarming to hear more of the stories and experiences together and separately, to see how you've all developed into who we, the viewers, get the opportunity to know through this channel. Many thanks to Dave and Tom for acting through this as well and for being, well, connected to the system as it were.

[@Lexi-hw9gk]

When Ed is talking about being jealous, because everyone wants to be with Jamie, and I'm here like 😍😍😍😍 Ed 😍😍😍😍. They are so cute together. I have loved seeing the actors physically resemble them.

[@edisakuroki5414]

This is so cute. I can really see Ed and Jamie's personality showing through these actors.

[@ravencentral854]

You are ALL fantastic! You have done so much to tell those of us who don’t have DID!

[@ravencentral854]

I haven’t met any of you, you all + Gaz plus the guys acting make me feel like I know you all. I am so pleased u share this very intimate side of yourselves.

[@MackenzieEvansMarts]

Even though I've been following for a while now, this video helped me understand more about alter relationships and why ed and Jamie are together. Great job!

[@Jerseychica914]

They really are such an old married couple, bickering away with love! 💕 This was beautiful to see.

[@korinnab.2318]

After watching your channel for almost 5 years, finally being able to see you all before me is bringing tears to my eyes

[@rosierennie5867]

Ed's reaction to Jamie saying he had a big bum made me cackle, I cant tell you how much I needed the giggle and I'd totally act the same way as Ed would 😅😂😅🤣

[@AllisonWay]

Man, I love their relationship so much. I relate to Ed quite a lot and both him and Jaime are the type of people I would love to hang out with because they just seem like great people.

[@charigrant8488]

I love these actors so much! They do such a good job. I love getting to see Ed and Jamie interacting. I feel like we get to be inside of Jess’ head in the inner world.
