It is perfectly legitimate to be kin of someone whose body, mind and/or life experiences are different than yours. Kin do not chose their kintype/kinself.…

yer-a-wizard-megan: So I think I have a fictive/headmate with Sans?? Can someone try and help me understand this because I have been doing research but…

I am not otherkin nor do I have an opinion on it really. However I was wondering if it was okay for a fiction kin to be a non-important character, like Hannah Abbott from HP or Katie Gardner from Percy Jackson or like a character that was only mentioned a couple time s or whatever.

seriousotherkin: Psychologically; I can’t see a difference between psychologically fictionkin major characters and minor characters.  Spiritually; If we presume multiverse theory true, and we presume…

futura-venatus: i started reading about otherkin and such, and honestly its such bullshit. and i feel like its almost mocking people with actual mental disabilities.…

two of my mutuals that i considered friends are against white people IDing outside their race (one being a poc that regularly asks others to suggest them new kintypes and the other being a white person) and it makes me excruciatingly paranoid and afraid to the point i made a separate fickin blog to talk about my kins, but i really want to figure out a way to either dissuade them from the racism notion or at least ease my anxiety, do you have any suggestions?

do you think it’s possible for a fickin to be a mixture between reincarnated, and psychological/coping? I feel most of mine were past lives and i have memories for a good few of them, but they still, at least sort of, affect me psychologically/help me cope with mental illness by giving me more of a sense of self and something to relate to, even if i didn’t choose them. do you think that’s possible?

Many, many reincarnated/spiritual kin rely on aspects of their kinself for comfort and strength. Drawing on your identity as kin to help you cope with…

Your post on the fictionkin fictive difference made me wonder – what about fictives who are also fictionkin? As in, they remember past lives in the same way any fictionkin does, even though they have a main/current form similar to a fictionkin’s current life. But maybe that’s a soulbond thing? Since I always heard that fictives were specifically related to alters who are fictional, and soulbonds can come and go as they wish and aren’t necessarily a part of the host.

I won’t take a stance on whether alters can be fictionkin, as alters are specifically DID related and not something I am qualified to discuss.…
