Do you think it’s possible that some soulbonds can only talk to you in your dreams? A character visits me frequently while I’m asleep and our interactions are deeply personal (not sexual… yet) & I feel such a connection with them but I can’t seem to get them to talk to me while I’m awake. Do you think it could eventually happen or, if it doesn’t, is it wrong to label this a soulbond? And by frequently I mean at least once per night, every night… Thank you if you answer, fantastic blog! :)

Soulbonds express themselves in a variety of ways. I’ve had, and heard of people having bonds that never speak, but only make themselves known through…

Do you think soulbonds are “real” if they don’t accurately reflect all traits of their personality or memories etc from their canon? (Note: “real” isn’t the word I want to use (it’s kinda rude) but I can’t come up with a better word for this question. I’m not trying to be rude, slap me if I am.)

I don’t think this is a rude question. 🙂 The answer is yes. I consider all soulbonds ‘real’ for lack of a better word, regardless of…

I’ve had bonds for a while now, and they are /very/ close to me, but they weren’t kin, nor were they headmates, and facets didn’t feel like the right word either, so I ended up calling them brainmates. Everything you’ve described with soulbonds though, has hit my experience right on the nose. So, thank you, from the bottom of my, and my bonds, hearts

I’m so glad you found a term that rings true to your experience! Soulbonding is really a fascinating experience and a deep part of my…

I have a question that I’m too embarrassed to ask off-anon, sorry. I am pretty sure I’m not fictionkin, but yet sometimes I will feel like literally a character is rising up from inside my brain to act for me or to guide me, etc. Pre-existing characters, not OCs. Even when they aren’t actively acting for me, they are still sometimes there and even talk to me and others who are there. I’m not sure what this could be and since I’ve known about otherkin for 10+ years my only thought [1/2]

[2/2] was that it had to be related to fictionkin. And yet as I dwell on it and the more I think the more I…
