As of now, this is how it would work until something I say in the future were to override it, either in part or in its entirety.

Except for money that contains a negative value (more on that in a bit), all my money, which currently mostly includes rai stones, would go to my currently only non-technical BF, but on the condition that he can take care of my pets. Everything (and I mean everything, even things that one might not think of in this context) of mine that wasn't a part of an inheritance would go to my two best friends (with a vote, one with no unprescribed options that lasts seven days amongst any group of people that specializes in polling, deciding who something goes to in case there is a schism over who gets certain things, with votes always able to override previous votes if anyone feels the need, with the one with the most voting participants being the most valid if there are two polls at a given time), and this would include the things that would otherwise go to my only non-technical BF if he wasn't able to fit the role I describe here. Except for things of mine which have a negative monetary value, which would go to whomever I deem to have wronged me the most (supposing I make it explicit), the rest would go to the twins whose family I often mention I help.

I would appoint my best friends' children, or accurately-put the closest thing to children, to be the ones who, if working collectively, are to finish whatever ongoing projects I have going on when I die, be them creative, competitive, or of some other nature, including the fulfillment of my will itself, at least concerning parts that are not, naturally, dealt with by other people where we all live. I would appoint my guy best friend as my proxy when dealing with matters of sorrow towards others on my behalf, and I would appoint my other best friend, currently his mate, as proxy when dealing with matters of forgiveness towards others on my behalf. I would appoint my three step-step-kids (the kids of the ex of my only non-technical BF; believe it or not, they are my age due to how the family operated) as my proxies for everything else, but only collectively (as in only things said and done in consensus could be counted as being on my behalf, and no one of them is my proxy on their own).

I would ask that my body be broken down into parts that were useful for surgical, medical, or scientific progress and to be used to the best of the ability of the parts being broken down, supposing a beneficiary is found who would be grateful enough to pay it forward, with my step-step-kids being able to meet the beneficiaries if possible, and I would ask for the rest of my body to be broken down into parts and chemicals that either might have some considerable value if sold and/or given to the right people or might have some nutritional value for birds of prey, with the beneficiaries of these, too, hopefully being grateful enough that they may channel their gift in a way that others may find some kind of relief.

If these actions cannot be performed, or if for some reason successfully completing all that would be physically insufficient to render me unable to be buried, I would aim for a tree burial, but as per whatever burial laws are in effect when I die, if I must get buried in a way that involves a stone, assuming I had not successfully gone awol right before my death in order to escape the fact that will-fulfillment companies take money out of the dead person's inventory to pay for death-related expenses once the body is found, I'd ask for the stone to double as a birdhouse (the kind of birdhouse is the choice of the person fulfilling the will). Might as well let a bird live in it. And I would ask for what I leave behind to be maintained well for as long as a year hasn't gone by when a bird hasn't lived in the stone.

As for what I'm buried with if I am buried, I wish to be buried wearing the clothes I normally sleep in, with everything else I normally sleep beside being buried beside me. That also includes whatever pets I last had at the time of dying, though if the pets are still alive, if possible, wait for them to die first before digging me up to bury me with them. It is better they be spared and miss the chance to be buried with me than to be killed just so they can be buried with me. This isn't Mesoamerican sacrifice. If possible, if it turns out I'm called to be buried, and assuming my significant other is buried and doesn't mind me being buried with him, I would also like to be next to my significant other, but that isn't a strong request either.
