About Us
Who are we?
The Cosmozoa Conglomerate is a semi-fused mixed-origins system. Though our initial origins are largely traumagenic in nature, we consider the current state of the system to be endogenic, since after fusing, we pushed ourselves slightly back out rather than staying entirely as one whole.
As a conglomerate, we function as one. We mainly use singular pronouns outside of speaking of the system itself, and our consciousness may as well be one. It is very difficult to tell each other apart, or individuals from the whole, so we use the labels misaconscious and median to describe ourselves.

What's it like?
Being in a conglomerate is knowing you are and being one whole. You are one person, but equally and at the same time, are made up of many different parts held together by some type of glue. It feels both rigid, with differentiating thoughts being extremely difficult at times, but very flexible at the same time. We have no problems with memory, have a single overarching personality, but that personality is split up into its component parts. Rather than being separate and different from one another, we are an incomplete version of the next.
Oftentimes we forget that we're even a system at all because of how strong the conglomerate structure is. We function as a singlet, which was of course the point of undergoing fusion: we were far too unstable and our life needed something to tie it all down so we weren't being pulled along with the current as much.
It feels sturdy, strong. This is not to say that healthy true multiplicity is impossible; it was just impossible for us.
Even when we hear no one else in our mind, we feel the presence of everyone surrounding us. It's warm, comforting, a reminder of who we are, who we were, and who we will become.
