Tumblr might have eaten my ask; if this is a repeat, just delete it. I was wondering how someone reconciles the belief that “fiction isn’t reality”/”dark topics are ok in fiction because it’s not real” with actually being kin? Because I have been holding this belief that dark things are ok in fiction for reasons like this, but I’m fictionkin and I don’t know what to think anymore.

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…

@punymortals99 is trolling the kintags right now. They have posted both gore and offensive messages. Stay out of the tags if you’re easily upset. Tags…

What are fictionkin? Fictionkin; (noun): A person who discovers that they have in some way inherited the soul/spirit/complete mentality of a fictional character, and the…

is it strange/bad that, even though i was a character in a past life, in my current state i feel a deep connection with his father? as in – although i was that person, if i had to pick one who’s me now, i would probably pick his dad. i don’t have memories or anything as his dad – i just relate to him.

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…

This is a stupid question probably, though I’m kind of new. With soulbonding, is it possible to accidentally become a soulbonder? I had this one RP character and every now and then I’d just start acting like her, and then I’d stop and not remember it. And there’s a drastic change in personality. I figured out kinda how to push it in the direction of happening, though it didn’t always work. And I left a note taped to my arm asking what was going on, and (1/3)

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…

You probably get a lot of asks so I understand if you don’t get around to answer this one but first I’d like to tell you that I really love your blog! It’s informative and you’re always polite and yeah… and then I’d like to ask you for advice. There’s this game I know since I was a really small child and for all my life since I first saw it I felt like it was home, just even when I hadn’t played it myself yet I often found myself thinkin “I want to go back there, I want to meet them again” P.1

p.2 like… I just feel so strongly about the whole word and the characters/people in it, I still cry from the overwhelming feelings once I…

Hello, sorry if this is a bother, but could you talk about or direct me to anyone talking about “copinglink”? I think I understand what it means, but am not sure I quite get it. I did a Google search and a Tumblr search, but came up with 2 posts, which were both angry sounding posts and didn’t actually mention what copinglink was, just that it exists. :( I’m all for new terms to describe things, esp because “kin” has been twisted so much lately by others.

Copinglink is a very new term. I’m pretty sure it’s meant to replace copingkin? @inexplicablehanyou can probably explain better than I can.

The thing is, otherkin/fictionkin stuff keeps getting mixed up with mental health issues and sexuality, gender and identity politics, and it… really has nothing to…
