I'm arranging a little gathering, and someone wants to know the number of attendees - but the group is a mix of plural systems and singlets.
I don't want to be specific and say "there are 5 systems and 2 singlets attending", I just want to give a single number.
Is there a phrase I can use to express this?
@lizardsquid seven bodies?
Some extra context: this question is from the currently-fronting alter of one of the systems attending, I don't need (nor want) to disguise the existence of plurality among the guests
