Thoughtsharing refers to unspoken internal communication between headmates in the same system. It can also extend to some form of intentional communication between a sentient headspace and living beings.
Often, thoughtsharing is done by pushing one's thoughts into the thoughts of another headmate, although the exact ways to thoughtshare differ among systems.
A thought or phrase that has intentionally nonverbally been shared with another headmate can be referred to as a thoughtshare.
