I’m gonna go ahead and leave this here for my followers to address. Sincerely, a transman/fictionkin who experiences dysphoria
Fascinating! I’m interested that I’ve never head of that one before, because it actually is a really useful word!
Assuming you mean in reaction to this: http://fromfiction.tumblr.com/post/140121020412/how-may-i-tell-i-am-a-fictive-if-i-turn-out-not Absolutely walk-ins exist (never heard of crawl ins? Whats the difference?). I say ‘almost no possibility’ when I really…
Wait, how do you shape your soul into a non-human one if you haven’t grown up that way? I have no idea, but I wouldn’t…
Headspace can mean two things. 1. Just the scope of your mind and all the things that exist in it. AKA all your thoughts and…
Good to know! Thank you for the heads up.
Yes? I was merely listing traits characteristic of soulbonding. As I said, there’s a significant amount of crossover between phenomena.
Soulbonding and non-DID multiplicity in general have a lot of potential crossover. Here are the things that tend to make soulbonding ‘different’. All of these are…
That is a good point, anon. I have noticed that tendency in myself over the years and lives I’ve had.
This CAN be a decent indicator, but its not always the case. Soulbonding covers a much wider spectrum of communication than other multiplicty experiences generally…
Absolutely. I’ve seen this a lot, especially recently.
As a soulbonder just wanted to say thanks to you and hamiltoes for being so reasonable and informed!
@hamiltoes Thanks anon! as a soulbonder myself, its definitely a subject that’s important to me.
Hi anon, I assume you’re responding to this post. I appreciate the input, but that’s definitely not it. According to the DSM it must “cause…
Oof, anon, this is a tough subject. On the one hand, I personally have a lot of trouble watching/reading upsetting/dark fiction that doesn’t have a…
The concept of ‘validity’ as far as kintypes go is close to meaningless. Being kin is an internal experience that at the end of the day,…
This has been brought up for discussion before (by myself among others). The consensus from actual trans people within the community is that dysphoria is…
Are the characters human or nonhuman? If they’re nonhuman you can just call yourself otherkin.
As a median system, you lack a solid barrier between what is ‘you’ and what is ‘not you’. Given that that is simply your state of being,…
Its normal for fictives to have their own memories. This doesn’t have anything to do with being kin, so they’re not ‘kin’ memories, they’re just the…
The best forum for fictionkin that I know of its incanon.org . Their signups were down for a while but its fixed now, and open for…
Wunderbar. Avoid or block @rasberry-kin they are a troll/parody account and not a real otherkin.
I can absolutely tag them from now on, anon! I’ll go back and tag the ones I recently reblogged. I’ll be using the tag #kindrama…
Depends on what you mean by ‘access your headspace’. Do you mean get in contact with other entities that may/might be able to share your mind?…
Medians, at least when I last heard the term, are people who don’t comfortable fit either as multiples or singlets. Being median is a sort…
Absolutely true. I was much more free about mixing my terminology until lately when I have been hearing from DID systems who want to keep…
First of all, just to clear things up, headmates have nothing to do with fictionkin or otherkin. Headmate as a term came about to describe…
The answer is its a bit of a blurry line. Lets see if I can rattle out some of the differences and such. Soulbonders specifically…
I’m never against new terms. No one has to use them, but I think more words are more useful than fewer words.
Eh, that’s why forums are better for internal polls than tumblr is. tumblr is a very public community. Its impossible to keep things private here.
I don’t think its bad? After all, if you’re this character, then his father is your father. Its not unusual to feel a deep connection…
@sweeneykin appears to be a troll. If they are not a troll, they are a very rude kin.
By fictional others, I gather that you mean romantic interactions with fictives/soulbonds/headmates. My personal feelings are that there is nothing wrong with having these relationships…
First of all, the more popular a series is, the more people who are kin of it will see it, and be able to recognize…
I got an answer scribbled in a different style of writing saying something about airships and crossing realms. And every now and then I feel…
Firstly, you would be a soulbonder, and the people who follow you around would be called soulbonds. As for what the criteria is: A soulbond…
2/2 headspace at the same time. It’s really weird and I want to make sure this isn’t something that just happens or that has a…
