✦ the ceefax mainframe ✦
we're the ceefax mainframe, commonly just known as ceefax! we're 22 years old, use it/they pronouns collectively, and are synqueer with a side of "we pretty much all have different identities, it's very complicated lol"we're a complex plural, with a headcount that is often in flux (although we desire to have a more stable, likely smaller, count). we also have a weird fronting system that, while having a group of souls who front somewhat frequently, isn't consistent and does what it likeswe don't use origin terms, we rarely use role language, and we admittedly don't really connect with a lot of plural terms. we do however have a list of personal terms we use, some in place of common termswe're collectively alterhuman, objectum, and have an interest in writing and drawing, collecting plushies, and old television. we also love our 3DS, as well as finding out more about plural and alterhuman history!also we're pretty much all aliens or fucked up computers <3

- Fractalization : Alternative to splitting/forming used by some groups, usually those who fit the above
