soulbonder: Hello to everyone from /r/tumblrinaction who is looking at this blog! Feel free to ask questions ^^ PS: The Sarah Saga was a hoax.

forcepirate: I don’t even notice kin shifts half the time anymore, sometimes it’s such subtle things. “Oh I’m holding my coffee cup like Ben did” or…

I had a short mental shift yesterday and a longer phantom shift today into my fictotype, and most days I feel phantom body parts (but usually it’s cat-like ears or bird-like wings (but not both) that I feel, which are not a part of any kintype I know of, I only know of one so far).

I’m really sorry anon, I’m really ill equipped to give you advice about delusions and separating them from non-delusional internal experiences. Speaking from personal experience…

I’m kin with a character from a folktale. Would I qualify as fictionkin? I can’t find any evidence that the events happened in this world, so I assume it happened on another Earth and since it’s been written down and published, I feel like I qualify. On the other hand I’ve seen people use the term immortalkin and I was immortal for a while. (It’s complicated; Death eventually let me die after a while.) What’s the correct term for someone in my situation?

People use lots of little words to boil down their kin experience. Just because someone says they’re immortalkin doesn’t make them not otherkin. Think of…
