These phenomena happen, but are not associated with fictionkin. They are called factkin and factives respectively.
Yes, you can be fictionkin of a human character (i am). The only difference is that you are then not also ‘otherkin’. Otherkin are non-human only.
You can’t stop being kin, and being kin is never ‘ableist’.
