Absolutely. Not all memories come in dreams and not all are extremely vivid or concrete. Sometimes you just *know* something. Its weird.
Nouns are not genders, therefore its not misgendering. That’s my stance. I’m happy to respect anyone’s actual personal pronouns, including he/she/they/xe. Nonbinary is a real…
I know how you feel, anon. Its comforting to me for the same reason ^^
I would not say that being kin has affected my personality at all, but perhaps it has made it easier for me to recognize certain…
As a transperson, no. Being otherkin has nothing to do with pronouns.
Unfortunately, sorting out what are really memories and what aren’t can be really confusing, especially when you’re starting out. Its a process that takes time,…
Its absolutely possible to not recognize memories for what they are. And its especially easy to mix memories into fictional ideas when you’re writing/
If its strange, then I’m strange too, anon. Many years ago when I was first exploring myself as Ken, I wrote a series of brief…
Neonkin anon again, sorry! But I wanted to add that I do have shifts to this kintype, where I feel extremely high energy and feel…
Its certainly enough to continue questioning if you are this kintype if not enough to outright confirm it. Honestly, if you have memories (however vague)…
It sounds like it is definitely a possible kintype, and worth exploring whether it is or not! If its not a kintype, it might also…
Hmmm, sounds tough. If I were you I would not worry about it too much unless that homesickness is one of the ONLY things that…
If a source just came out and you think you might be jumping on a bandwagon. If you haven’t felt anything related to a kintype…
The main traits that I think most fictionkin feel are: feel like you are the character homesickness for another place gender/species/image dysphoria supernumary phantom limbs…
The mods at @everykin seem like nice people, and they certainly aren’t trolls or harassers. They post nice positivity, and they would be a great…
If you have to push away these feelings and they keep coming back, that’s a good indication that you may be kin, or have a…
You don’t have to have the same traits as someone/something to be other/fictionhearted with them. I’m not sure whether they’d count as synpaths or not,…
That’s fair, and I can see where you are coming from with that stance. I’ll admit I find their position somewhat ironic, given that they…
If that’s the way you feel anon, then that’s the way you feel. No one is going to force you to interact with a tumblr…
I am aware of @realmultipleadvice ‘s stance on those things, and I feel comfortable recommending them anyway, specifically because: a) if a question is about kin…
The pronouns I’m comfortable using for people for now, are he, she, and singular ‘they’. I think its important for our language to have a pronoun…
Ouch, anon, I can sympathize. Unfortunately, I don’t have any good advice for you. However, my fiancee who recently went through this herself, may. @nagathewhiteserpent…
This isn’t really a question I can answer. Its not a kin question, and even as a soulbonder, I don’t have anyone in my headspace…
Fanworks can definitely trigger memories and feelings, especially if they capture something that was meaningful to you. It doesn’t necessarily mean that you’re kin specifically…
2/3 myself out.But I also want to say I’m deluded and crazy, that this is just a fun game my brain put together for me,…
Its okay, anon, every otherkin’s kintype is an OC too.
Anon, my friend, this is completely normal and okay. I, and a lot of people, get upset about things that happen in canon, and memories,…
Maybe its not wrong? Or maybe its still an intense connection. You could be -hearted.
Yes, I believe this. It used to happen with me and my best friend back in the day, though our headspaces are more closed off…
I have mixed feelings about this, anon. I suppose my question is this. How do you know they’re faking? If you have proof/screenshots of them…
Absolutely! Some memories are just fuzzy/distant and that’s totally okay.
I assume you’re asking me if its ‘racist’ for a white person to go by a Japanese name. (There are lots of anime characters that don’t…
tips for identifying your kintype: ‘That’s me’ feeling, or strange feeling when you see them/read about them. Homesickness for the world they come from. Familiarity…
That’s rough, anon. Firstly, remember, sometimes it’s just a case of over questioning things, and you need to step back and let yourself breath. However,…
Don’t let yourself get caught up in the trap that memories are the only thing that make someone fictionkin. There are a wide variety of…
Its not particularly normal or abnormal. I always tend to advocate for heavy scrutiny when you think it may be the case, because it seems…
Only you can decide how to define your internal experience, anon. If you think it feels more fiction-hearted than fictionkin, that’s up to you. Nothing…
I feel you, anon. Just remind yourself that the people saying this don’t understand what it means to be kin, and almost certainly aren’t actual…
