So I believe I’m a fickin of a AU from a video game. Where I was two of the main characters child. Like I feel homesick for that world and see them as role models. Is this possible? I get upset and people tag it as a Mary Sue thing, because I’m not.

It is totally possible to be kin of a character who was not shown in a story, or who only existed in an AU. Don’t…

What’s going on if there’s a different personality in my mind that I can talk to and that shares my memories, and he identifies with the name/pronouns of a fictional character, but the two of us are also kin for different fictional characters simultaneously? Do I have DID and am fictionkin, or am I just fictionkin for all three characters and I like talking to myself? I feel like a liar, even though I’m probably not…

This is definitely a question I can answer! Lets break this down! there’s a different personality in my mind that I can talk to and…

I’m not sure how to explain this but here it goes. I think that I am kin to a character and this character often gets into fights. I’m getting memories of the fights this character has been in, is this normal?

Absolutely normal! I hope your memories aren’t stressing you out too much. Its completely normal to have memories of things that happened to your kinself…

jesus crap, people can’t read or something. you’re saying relying on your fictionkin identity as a coping mechanism = OK. choosing to become kin _as a coping mechanism_ = impossible. how is it that hard to understand. anyway, i agree with you.

Thank you so much ^^ I don’t know why people get so offended when I say this. I am not trying to gatekeep or police…

im really confused and troubled lately because i think im kin with some characters but im genuinely not sure if my feelings are valid but fictionkin seems to “fit”, if that makes sense?? i feel a lot of kin things except memories. i see those canonical happenings as an outsider and i do not feel like i am present or part of them occurring. at the same time, theres a familiarity and longing that’s present?? im not sure what im feeling. it’s a strong feeling, but im not sure what it IS exactly?

There are two possibilities here. One is that you are kin with someone from that ‘canon’ who was never shown on screen. Basically a ‘background character’ or ‘extra’…

can i still identify as fickin even if i don’t refer to myself by my kin’s names? for some reason whenever i try to imagine callig myself one of my kin’s names i feel kind of uncomfortable

Most of the time I don’t refer to myself as Ken, or Vriska. I have a different name now, a name for the whole me,…

Hello! For a long while now, almost longer than I can remember, I’ve always felt like there’s been something missing from me. As if I’m trying to find an answer to a question I haven’t even thought to ask yet. Recently I discovered the concept of fickin and something really clicked with me, but I haven’t discovered anyone I might be kin with. Is it possible I might be fickin but simply don’t know with who yet? I’m afraid I might just be reaching :/

It is absolutely possible that you’re fictionkin, but haven’t found your ‘source’ yet. You could also be Otherkin, which is like being ficionkin, but without a…

Is it normal to not really miss your fictionkin past? I actually don’t miss my previous life at all. I find it interesting from a fictional/entertainment standpoint, but I wouldn’t choose to go back. Neither it nor the people I knew hold any real sentimental value to me. Anonymous because people would just call me a special snowflake or something, but it’s true. I’m not even sure why I awakened to a past life that held no emotional impact for me.

I can’t say whether your experience is ‘normal’ or not I would not say it was typical at all, but it is uniquely your experience. I…

Re: soulbonding with yourself: my canon has many alternate universes and versions of myself interact in canon, and I am soulbonded to a version of myself from a timeline where things happened almost exactly as they did in canon, whereas I’m from a more deviated timeline, but we are both technically the same character – just not the same person. It can happen!

Thanks for sharing!
