Okay so something has been bothering the hell out of me for MONTHS and I need a second opinion. Ever since Silent Hills PT came out I’ve been *beyond* drawn to it, I keep watching and re-watching videos of letsplayers playing it over and over, and I’ve been obsessively looking for games like it, but nothing is close enough to satisfy me, not even Layers of Fear, which actually took directly from PT. I just deduced it to being a kin thing but I don’t feel as if I’m anyone from the game. So.. ????

Maybe you’re someone who experienced a haunting in some way? Try looking at other haunting media, if you’ve looked at other games. (You’ve checked out…

(Anon from /post/143658539862/) I was partly referring to *insert incoherent screaming of kin panic here*, but I also felt “immediately slapped over the head with Kinfeels” and tried to convince myself I’m not fictionkin of the character I probably am (guess I failed at that). Fortunately, I don’t feel the *insert incoherent screaming of kin panic here* as much anymore (though I definitely did feel it in January).

I’m glad you’ve managed mostly to get through it, anon ^^

Do you have any other information other then tumblr? anything that goes back to before 2013? Also I didn’t think people your age were otherkin, I guess you still have to either grow out of it or get yourself some therapy, lol.

Where’s the line between fictionkin and otherkin? For instance, if we define otherkin as “non-human soul” and fictionkin as “soul of a fictional character”, there’s still a ton of overlap. Dragons and elves are fictional, but elf/dragonkin are otherkin. Homestuck trolls are non-human, but they’re fictionkin. Yet, both of these could qualify for either label. How do you differentiate the two?

Its a very fuzzy line indeed, and someone can be both otherkin and fictionkin at the same time. For instance anyone who has a fictotype…

I see a lot of people saying how much they want to connect to the people from their canon and they see themselves as still the character or thing they were kin with, while I just want to put it all behind me and try to disconnect from it. Is this normal? Should I feel bad?

You should absolutely not feel bad. People deal with being kin in different ways. Honestly, the current obsession with finding ‘canonmates’ is… pretty new honestly, especially…

So I’ve been avoiding Harry Potter since I was little, for reasons even I couldn’t come up with. There was no reason, I just wanted to avoid it. But HP is important to my partner (who I discovered is Neville) and they sat me down and we watched all 8 movies together. At the end of the first movie, Harry returns to the Dursleys and I asked my SO ‘when does he move in with the Weasleys?’ They said ‘he doesnt’ which made me very confused because i had vivid memories of harry living with them. (1/2)

Vivid like, I could’ve -sworn- that he moved in with them during his second or third year. SO says no, I drop it despite knowing…

This is the most respectful video explanation of kin and fictionkin that I’ve seen yet. I hope everybody takes a minute to watch this, and…

I think this is gonna be part of a longer ask, I’m sorry. I actually had a hunch of my kintype for a few months now but I never really “did” anything with it. It was just a thing that existed and I never bothered to dig deeper but then I met a friend from canon and he told me about the stuff like memories and all that and I dediced to dig deeper and now I am really confused about my identity for a few days?? Like, I know who I am in some way. I could recite my whole life when asked (1/?)

(2/?) And I don’t miss any memories from the past days or experience any changes in my personality. But I feel a lot more like…
