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…

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.

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…

Do you have any theories on why people who claim to be fictionkin on Tumblr all seem to conform to a very predictable behavior type? I’ve identified as fictionkin since long before joining Tumblr, and I find that I can’t relate at all to any of the ones I meet here because of the way they behave.

My theory is that various fictionkin on tumblr are in one or more of the following categories: a) Young and immature and will grow up…

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?

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

in my cannon, I had a pet follow me around, is it ok to make a tulpa of him/her?

This depends entirely on your feelings. First of all, knowing your pet, how do you think it would have felt, knowing you made a tulpa…

opinion on poly-fictionkin?

Depends on your definition of poly-fictionkin, anon. Shoot me a clarification. Everyone has different words these days.

sometimes people create characters to vent personal emotions/feelings/traits–characters that are literally themselves with exaggerated bits for fun. i did this and had a friend claim to be fictionkin, /literally/ my character. i’m not okay with that seeing as the character is literally manifest creation of myself. do you believe someone can be ‘literally me’? even though they’re the fucking opposite of my personality?

Your friend should stop being a douchebag. If he or she doesn’t understand why this is distressing for you, then you need to get a…

can being kin be used as a kind of support for anxiety/stress/depression? Sorry if this is rude in any way, I’m really new to this ;;

You can use a character’s strength as a way to support you mentally, but this is not what being fictionkin is. I would call this…
