Is there a word for identifying as a fictional species, or fictional race of beings? Not one that was in canon, but someone from their…
Happens fairly often. Not knowing why you’re drawn to something can often be interpreted as feelings of romantic attraction.
That’s called copinglink if you want to draw strength from and ‘become’ the character. Check tumblr #copinglink for more information Or if you want the character…

You’d say “my hearttype is”, or “I’m fictionhearted of”
Fictionhearted people absolutely can experience shifts ^^ Honestly, I am pretty certain that anyone in the alterhuman spectrum/community can experience some types of shifts ^^
Some people chose to be copinglink because trauma or mental illness causes them to want to disassociate themselves from their human/normal identity. For these people…
theangrylionshark: who-is-page: elevengrackles: muninn-the-raven: I refuse to reblog and spread false information. I hate how Tumblr works BTW. This is what I’m responding to (…
That’s right ^^ “My kintype is___” or “___ is my kintype” is best, but “kin of” fills the linguistic urge that “kin with” does without as much of the…
Saying ‘kin with’ perpetuates the incorrect assumption that a kintype is something you identify with, rather than something you are.
Yes. Its more correct to say “my kintype is”. “I’m kin with” is incorrect.
A hearttype is to fictionhearted/otherhearted as kintype is to fictionkin/otherkin. Hearttype is what you feel linked to as a -hearted person.
The problem with “ID” as a term is that it doesn’t have a set definition and means different things to different people. Some people who…
fictionkin-official: That does seem to be the Discourse of the Month, doesn’t it? Short answer: no, it is not racist to have a kintype of…

I was never sprited and I am sure it happened to people different ways in different timelines. My memory is that sprites with multiple people…
I’m sure that happens sometimes. Likely one would have chosen to ID as the character because unconsciously they ‘knew’ that it was them.
‘Ancestral Awakening’ was a magical transformation– lets call it a ‘stat buff’ that was caused by rolling all eights on my flourite octet (magic dice) as…

Yes, Vriska (specifically (Vriska) as well as Mindfang due to Ancestral Awakening) from Homestuck, and Pearl from Steven Universe.
I’m pretty sure i have the blog @racistkin blocked, and I advise everyone else do the same. They don’t understand what they’re talking about and…
Please do not take this response as a criticism of your feelings or emotional connections. What you are feeling is completely valid and awesome, the…
It can totally happen, anon. The mind does weird things, especially in order to protect itself. Its certainly possible that you built a copinglink identity…
I don’t think its strange at all. I tend to get a warm little feeling when I see fanart that looks the way I perceive…
I think the tags mostly in use are synpath and fictonhearted and/or hearttype. You can also use the tag alterhuman!
1) It depends. Being fictionhearted is pretty much wanting to be a character or fictional creature in a way, but you don’t necessarily have to…

I think the best solution is to let them have individual blogs/emails/etc online, and make friends of their own that way. I wish I had…
I don’t think it went through! Tumblr eats my asks fairly regularly, so please send it again!
