Hi! I’m pretty new to being fickin, and I’m finding it kind of hard… Sometimes I feel a really big disconnect from my kintypes and I feel like I’m just ‘pretending’ a lot, especially since I have no memories of my canons or anything. Do you have any suggestions on how to help me really verify that I’m fictionkin with these characters, if only to set my mind at ease? Or maybe a way to unlock some memories, if there are any ways? Thank you in advance!

The best way to unlock memories is with self reflection and meditation. I recommend making some quiet time alone, to explore your feelings and your thoughts. Let yourself explore without feeling like you ‘should’ come to one conclusion or another.

Other ways to connect to your kinself as a fictionkin are to watch the ‘source’ again, even if its hard, or to listen to music from it, or music that reminds you of it. Music often has a very meditative quality, and can bring a lot of emotions and even memories to the surface.
