How switches work for us + other weird system things

I made a diagram to help explain.

Basically, there's one main consciousness that controls fronting. It can be occupied by any of us, and sometimes more than one at a time. Rowan rarely leaves this part of the brain, letting people control it next to them instead. The metaphorical "core part" we refer to (sort of jokingly) as "the brain" resides just above this space. When someone is co-con it's easier to hear them and they often influence the fronter in certain ways, like voice changes or jokes. The current front may see them nearby in the headspace. But they can't control the body.

A headmate switching into the front can be a lot of different experiences for us. The main consciousness taking on a different identity is how we usually describe it, and a good visualization is the new fronter coming up behind the current one and swapping bodies with them. Sometimes there's blending, sometimes there isn't.

In the backspace/inner headspace we just kind of, exist. Anyone can interact with the front from here, but not with each other unless both are co-con, as far as we know. Nobody can remember being in the headspace when they front so far.

We don't have a stable member count, and I've explained this by describing our process of forming headmates as "A thick, bubbling liquid, where new bubbles form and may stay a while or pop/reintegrate with the mass. Sometimes the bubbles are fully removed from the liquid but even those may float back into it at some point. Bubbles that disappeared might return someday, but it's impossible to know."

Where's the word for a system that's the opposite of capacigenic, where's our word for infinite growth or the potential for it?

No, it's not polyplur+/polyfrag+ because to us that represents a structure or function and is not inherently a descriptor for headspace capacity

"infinite growth is unhealthy" thats for capitalism in regards the outerworld environment, not for our system where the outerworld rules are complete and utter bulshit at best. :D

there is a number but the growth is infinite, with no intentions of stopping, collapsing, resetting, going backwards, etc etc etc but the number isn't exactly unstable either the way our substitute word ingnitien defines itself.

Ingnitien

A system without a stable member count.

Ingnitien

A system without a stable member count

While there is nothing inherently wrong with the original terms, they were coined by a singlet which just personally made us and some others we knew uncomfortable.
