pronouns

0x5fbe uses it/its pronouns. below are some examples:

• 0x5fbe has been working on its projects.
• did you hear back from it?
• it's trying to reward itself with something nice.

designation

a designation number differentiates between different products, like a serial number. its designation number is 0x5fbe in hex and 24510 in decimal, although it usually refers to itself with the hex encoding. ɸ-5fbe is another way to refer to it using its designation number, although not even the unit itself refers to it that way since copy pasting a unicode symbol is annoying. 0x5fbe is encoded in two track pharmacode as ▌▖▌▖▘▖▖▌▌.

functionally, its designation number functions as a name. here are some example usages:

• 5fbe told me something interesting the other day.
• i think unit 5fbe will find this interesting!
• 0x5fbe is tired.
• i can't believe designation 5fbe just made me lose the game!

it has a more "human" name as well: melody. both of these may be used to refer to it. do not use mel as a nickname.

third person

3pp means third person preferred, and it prefers third person over either first or second person.

valid ways to replace the second person are:

• saying its name:

5fbe knows that this is important, right?

hey can melody do a favour for me?

• using its pronouns:

wow i didn't know it liked conlangs!

be kind to itself!

• using demonstratives (this one/that one)

can this one help me with this math question?

how does that one know about that!

note that this and that mean different things: be consistent with this vs that within a convo! this one only uses the demonstrative "this one" and never "that one" when referring to itself, as it uses "that one" for talking to others who are 3pp. others may use "this one" or "that one" as they wish.

some phrases are incredibly awkward in third person (for example, "thank you" would be "thank it", which doesn't sound right). you may use the second person for these phrases. additionally, it may switch to using first person and not expect you to use third person in a sufficiently serious conversation. this is to put less focus on how one should refer to it as well as make it appear more sincere and less "shitposty".

it uses common abbreviations such as "idk" and "imo" all the time, although the reading can be modified (idk = "it doesnt know", imo = "in melody's opinion"). these abbreviations are used out of habit and convenience.

depersonalisation

0x5fbe thinks of itself as a mechanical entity that isnt really a person, despite having sapience or sentience. the amount of depersonalisation that it uses for itself may be jarring to some. do not worry, the depersonalisation is comfortable, and even empowering.
