New CP1-soliton behaviour on a flat torus is reported. Defined by the Weierstrass elliptic function and numerically-evolved from rest, each soliton splits up in two lumps which eventually reunite, divide and get back together again, etc.. This result invites speculation on the question of fractional topological charge.
