I don’t know enough about these specific kintypes to make a judgement about whether there is something especially strange about the relationship between them. However,…
It depends on what you mean by ‘gatekeeping’. I am strongly in favor of maintaining a somewhat ‘strong’ definition of what being kin means, and not…
It bothers the hell out of me too anon. Proper form is X is my kintype of just ‘I’m X’. However, it seems to be accepted…
I am compelled to point out that ‘system’ is currently a debated term, as to whether or not it is acceptable to use unless you are…
I’m happy for you that you don’t have a lot of painful memories and nostalgia, anon. Not everyone does, and that’s a good thing. Only…
Don’t worry too much about it, canon isn’t *always* what triggers memories, though it tends to be for a lot of people. Its possible your…
As far as I’m aware its totally okay to have a crush on someone who is a synpath? Other synpaths please chime in this is…
It sounds like you’re definitely over-questioning it. Its okay. Its something we all do now and again, because you’re right, its not something that can…
My pleasure. A median is thought to be by some the midpoint between singlet and multiple. There are other ‘people’ sharing headspace but they are all…
I feel for you, anon. Souls and such weren’t on my radar when I first started awakening as kin. Here’s the thing. Its okay to…
Thanks for the heads up. Here’s the post this anon is referencing.
Oof sorry anon, this question is all kinds of confused. Let me try to detangle things for you. headmate: a person/entity that is sharing a…
Yes, anon, it is totally possible to be kin of a ‘non-existent’ character- as in a person who doesn’t exist in the canon/source material of the…
If that happens to you, then your character is definitely, for a fact, without a doubt a soulbond. :p (This post is re: the latest…
First of all, you’ll need to take your time. Even with an instant reaction, it can take weeks, months, or even years to truly understand…
I recommend you take a look at my website, anon. http://fictionkin.net/ On tumblr, you can also look at this blog, as well as @youredoingkinwrong @who-is-page @bloodswapkankri…
Well, the easiest way would be if you had any memories- that would probably clear things right up because they’d be from your kinself’s perspective.…
I find it best to deal with negative kin memories and feelings the same way I deal with negative memories and feelings in this life.…
Probably? I have like 6 asks in my box from the last 24 hours. I don’t/can’t always answer things right away.
I’ve never gone out of my way to make a soulbond with my former significant others, because the idea makes me personally feel ‘weird’. However, I…
You sound like fictionkin to me, if you believe that you ‘are’ Sariel in any way. Its totally okay and normal to use your identity to…
You don’t need to worry about bad publicity, right now, anon. You need to worry about getting well. Alcoholism can be very serious, and your…
The only way I know is to deliberately visualize it until it becomes reflexive/internalized. Do visualization exercises /guided meditation /memory palace work. You can lay…
My biggest advice is just to be open and honest with your therapist. Don’t try to sugar coat it, or feed it to them in…
Totally agree with you, anon.
Ehhhh…. I’m possibly going to get in ‘trouble’ for answering this, anon, but I’m going to go ahead and do it because I have a lot…
Good to know! @popculturepagan I forgot to mention there are a lot of soulbonders who have fictional spouses and significant others.
I’m really glad to hear that, anon! Its always good to help people understand what being kin is.
LOTS of us are kin of ‘bad’ characters. Honestly I doubt that anyone who is kin doesn’t have a memory of doing something they regret. There…
Anon, its totally possible to be kin of someone that seems nothing like you are now. Especially if you believe in kin by reincarnation, people…
Ouch, anon. You have my deepest sympathy. That was a feeling I often experienced when I was younger. Wanting to go home, even when I…
Some people are more or less connected to thier kinlives, and feel them more or less deeply. It’s possible that the kintype you’ve stumbled on…
Kin have been on tumblr since it started, but the rise of the kin community as more visible and active seems to have started around…
There are definitely a lot of people out there who experience soulbonding, or are on the cusp of it, but don’t quite know what it…
Its another word for kintype that specifically is for fictionkin. For example, I’m Vriska, so that could be considered my ‘fictotype’.
Hey there! First of all, no need to be scared/freaked out. It sounds like this headmate is here for your benefit, and you’re not in…
Relating to/feeling like you have a lot in common with a character does not make you kin of them.
Thanks for resending this, anon, I couldn’t find it anywhere else in my inbox, so it looks like the original got eaten. Getting that initial ‘oh…
Having memories or what seem to be memories from a certain canon does not always mean one is fictionkin. Its entirely possible that you’re sharing…
Whatever you are experiencing is ‘real’ whether or not it is connected to being fictionkin. Take time to explore your feelings and connections. Reflect on your…
