Hey, uhm…I’m just kinda trying to figure out what, exactly, I’m experiencing. I have had a particular connection with a certain character since I was about 12 years old. I don’t feel any spiritual or religious ties, or th I am her or her reincarnation. I am me, in control of my body, and I know that she isn’t a real, tangible person. She is in control of herself and largely/entirely independent of me, but it’s like she’s a guest in my head. I didn’t create her like a tulpa. She’s like a casual

–observer. I’m not sure how to catalogue this, and was just wondering what your take on it is. She’s a ‘villain’ who is largely hated by the fandom, but I have always been understanding and sympathetic in regards to her character and actions, though I do not condone or excuse them.

Anon, I am a little confused. You didn’t create her but she is also not ‘real?’. Ignoring the ‘not real’ part, if she’s in control of herself and largely independant of you, it sounds like she is a fictive, or a soulbound. Go ahead and send me another ask with more info.
