Someone close to me suggested I might possibly be fictionkin of someone very powerful and well-loved from a really famous fandom, and I can see why they said that but I also hate the idea. I don’t feel good enough, I’m nowhere near as great as he is. I feel like I don’t deserve it. Is there anything I can do to accept the idea long enough to explore it fully?

I’ve struggled with similar feelings. Honestly, I think the fact that you feel like you’re not ‘worthy’ is a good indication that it may be a…

Hello! I’m sorry for disturbing your askbox, but I have a question! I think I’m kin with this certain character, but I don’t really know if I am. I’ve actually gone through the EXACT same experiences they’ve dealt with and I noticed that we both have the same hobbies and dislikings. But maybe it’s just me overthinking. Am I kin with this character or do I just look up to them?

Only you can really answer that question for yourself. Having the same experiences in this life as a character does in a fiction can make…

Hi, so, I’m not really sure I believe in fictionkin, but many years ago, 2006 I believe, I had a phase where I absolutely felt that I was Haseo from .hack//ROOTS, the feeling was so intense, and I felt all these emotions he had felt, and I seemed to have thoughts that weren’t canon that felt like memories, however that feeling faded after a few months and I haven’t thought about it since. What do you think, am I fictionkin or is this something else entirely?

You definitely could be fictionkin. I can’t tell you whether you are or not. Its something you have to figure out, searching within yourself. When…

So lately I’ve seen many fictionkins asking ppl who are kin with the same character as they are to not to follow them or to ask before following and I’m wondering, why? I’m not a fictionkin myself (maybe a bit fiction-hearted tho) and I’m really curious about this. Wouldn’t it be reasonable to feel some kind of connection with ppl who are like you? or not (like many ppl seem to prefer)? (I hope I made myself clear and used the right terms, sorry if I didn’t!)

fromfiction: I must admit that I too have been wondering the same thing. I was confused, when I few months ago, I noticed the trend…

Yo uh, I’ve been looking for active fickin communities so that I could read other people’s experiences? I’m trying to figure out if I am fickin or something else and I feel like reading other experiences would help me. But when i google it all I see is pages upon pages of people just bashing it that it makes it so hard to find any info. If you want me to ask off-anon for links to active community i could do that, and I’d understand why.

I do know of one active community for fictionkin, however its very private. I’d urge anyone looking for a community like this to message me…

cosmicfoxkin: Is it possible to be kin with a fictional ‘group’ of people like could I be kin with someone from dauntless who’s never mentioned…

And you’re telling me this why? You’re the one who has a problem here. Take a few deep breaths, and realize you’re an asshole.
