This is sort of like the question you already answered about being kin with OCs, but do you think it’s possible to be kin with a character from your own fanfiction? As in, an AU version of the character that you wrote about before you realized you were kin?

I absolutely believe this is possible. My belief is that (at least some) fictionkin come from people who have lived lives in other ‘fictional’ worlds being…

so…, im fictionkin with a robot, and i 100% KNOW i am, he’s my only kin and its hard to describe it but im sure you know what i mean. but im not really sure how that works… considering robots dont have souls, im not sure how i could be fictionkin with a robot. any help? ):>

There are two possibilities here. On the one hand the ‘psychological’ model of fictionkin may fit your situation better. On the other hand its possible that…

hi!! i have just recently figured out im fictionkin, so im a lil new, but im a bit confused. i feel like i have a strong connection to multiple characters, and i say “thats me!” whenever i see any of them. ive heard this is called polykin, but im not so sure.

That does sound like polykin to me. I would do a lot of thought and meditation on the matter, but it is *possible* that you…

What’s the difference between fickin and fictionkin? I’m not sure honestly.

I have no idea. I’m pretty sure fickin is just a shortening of fictionkin. But there may be some people who assert that they mean…

okay so im aro/ace, and sex-repulsed, and physically unable to read smut fics of my one kintype! i am pretty sure im kin to another character, but with them im perfectly able to read smut fics. if i was sexually attracted to another character from that series, would i then be considered greyace, or still ace?

This is way above my pay grade. Your sexual identity is determined by you, and only you.

Sorry if this is something you’ve answered a thousand times; I couldn’t see this specifically in the “FAQ” (at least not at first glance so ignore me or point me in the right way if I missed it). Out of curiosity, do you believe that someone who is fictionkin – not as a coping mechanism, because I see this commonly with coping kin to have multiple kintypes – can be kin to multiple characters?

Absolutely! This needs to go in the FAQ when I update it.

is it weird to rp as my kintype? Does that make me less them if I want to rp as them? Am I not fully understanding my identity?

I’ve Rped as my kintype before, although that was six or seven years ago now. I thought it might help me feel more ‘in tune’ with…

dealingwithbs: Friendly reminder that there is a big difference between fictionkin and fictives.

To clarify, I think that the exploration of being fictionkin can start as a result of coping. But once you’ve fully explored yourself to a…

poly-fictionkin anon here! I mainly see two types, people who identify as two characters in the same canon. (As in the same person being both Shinji Ikari AND Kaworu Nagisa from NGE) And, I also see people being kin with multiple characters from different canons. (So one person being, Shinji Ikari, Steven Universe, and Miku Hatsune). What are your opinions on those two types?

otherkinfaq: fromfiction: My basic opinion is that every identity someone has should be given equal weight and scrutiny by both themselves, and others. I believe…
