Fuck it, I'm coining a system term because I can't find any that describe our experiences.
I'm calling it: hostfluid.
A hostfluid system is a system that always or usually has a headmate in the role of a host, but experiences host changes very regularly. One headmate might be the host for a couple weeks, a month, or even longer, but there is no sense of permanence to the role.
For example, in our own system, we regularly experience periods without a host, but when we do have one the position tends to change hands frequently. Usually hosts last a couple months for us, we get a period of hostlessness, and then a new one comes along.
From our limited digging, no term for this exists yet. If I'm wrong, uhh. Oops.
