Have you ever met someone who had an intense, enduring love for a character and what they feel is a spiritual connection to them? I’ve felt this way about the same character for over a decade, but I don’t identify AS them, nor are they a literal headmate to me. It seems over time, my love for them has only grown stronger. They are very real to me even though I know they don’t literally exist in this world. I’ve only felt this way about one character, ever. Just wondering. Thank you. :)

I have experienced this and known people who experienced it more powerfully than I have.  It is completely possible to love a character and hold…

hi there! i’ve just really accepted my kintype recently (the mangle from fnaf) and i’ve got two other types (silver the hedgehog, weiss from rwby) and it feels like the mangle is here with me always but their voice is least dominant of the three & i occasionally hear weiss & silver pipe in on things that they would do in a situation (e.x.: forgot to do homework- pull an all-nighter vs. not do it at all.) are weiss & silver my headmates while mangle is a my kin? it’s how i feel all the time :o

Mangle is you “kintype” (I really hate how this term has come to be used) if that is your identity. Like if you identify AS…

Recently, I’ve been having really vivid nightmares. Each time, I find myself in a city area surrounded by coffins. Every time I wake up, I get stuck with this weird feeling that I can’t explain. I told my friend about it and he said it sounds exactly like Persona 3. I looked up Persona 3, and the feeling came back full force. Now I’m really nervous that this might be my awakening. I just wanna know, if this is my awakening, will I be able to still live life normally?

That sounds like Persona 3 alright. I would advise you to be *very* careful if you play the game, because its likely to hit you…

I awoke as Silver the Hedgehog, but it doesnt feel right. Firstly Im dragonkin so I know what it feels like to have a connection, but with him it feels different. I didnt pay much attention to him before finding out about fictionkin. He was compelling but I never missed his life like I miss dragons. And I dont feel “good enough” to be Silver. Hes just where Im apathetic about people in need. It feels kinda rude to id as him. Hes someones creation how can I say Im him when I dont know if its true

“Hes someones creation how can I say Im him when I dont know if its true”, you can the same way we all can, by…

I’ve come to find the hatred that ‘kin receive to be deeply saddening. 99.9% of the time, the reason people provide for hating ‘kin is because they think we’re “crazy”. They literally hate people that they think have a mental illness, solely on the basis of what they consider that ‘illness’ to be. In what universe is that not an unbelievably fucked up thought process? How is behaving like that better than being ‘kin?

I wish I had an answer for you. Sadly no matter what idea you have, and how harmless is its, people will be against it,…

(tw for blood, gore, death etc) i don’t understand fnaf fictionkin or any horror related fictionkin in general. why would you want to identify as a character whose only personality traits is murdering people? i think it’s really scary and i don’t want to be anywhere near them out of fear of them fantasizing about wanting to bite my head off :c

theangrylionshark: Identifying as otherkin isn’t about identify as what you want…it’s about understanding who and what you are (aside from human of course). Yeah, I’m…

ive been thinking i might be fictionkin but i cant seem to find anyone else who identifies with the “species” and im very confused and dont know how to figure out if i am or not and im very intimidated by the community and people potentially looking down on me and dont want to tell anyone. i see a lot of support for specific fictional character kin but not so much for fictional race kin and im very confused is there any advice you would possibly have?? thank you ;;

As someone who has a hard time finding others of their ‘kintype’/from my universe, I sympathize with you. I also sympathize when you say you’re…

hello! im a fictionkin and i need a lil advice, for the canon im in, one of the most popular pairings is the one i hate the most, because the character im paired with was Literally abusive and Evil to me, i have a lot of frustration about it, is that silly? does anyone feel like this sometimes too? :^(

Hello! I’m sorry you’re in a frustrating situation. I think that’s a feeling a lot of fictionkin have had- at least, I know I’ve been…
