Do you think it’s possible to become a soulbonder or multiple if you’ve never experienced the phenomenon before? What advice would you give for someone looking to become a soulbonder?

Soulbonder is a term I haven’t heard much since the livejournal days, and I think its a shame that most people seem to have stopped…

Um, quick question: Does one have to dissociate to have fictives/headmates? I swear they’re there. We talk and all, but I’m always aware.

No, you absolutely don’t have to dissociate to have fictives/headmates. Its merely a possible phenomenon that some people with headmates do experience.

hello! im a fictionkin and i need a lil advice, for the canon im in, one of the most popular pairings is the one i hate the most, because the character im paired with was Literally abusive and Evil to me, i have a lot of frustration about it, is that silly? does anyone feel like this sometimes too? :^(

Hello! I’m sorry you’re in a frustrating situation. I think that’s a feeling a lot of fictionkin have had- at least, I know I’ve been…

i have no idea where that anon came from with that definition, fictionkin has always been used of specific characters everywhere i’ve gone

Good to know. I wondered a bit if I was somehow woefully out of touch.

No no no. Fictive is specific character. Fictionkin is fictional species. Omg.

I have never heard these terms used this way before. Is there anyone who also uses them this way? When we on livejournal started to…

Elsen again — I’d need to “apologize” bc when I was away at college I didn’t have a job, and so I would use my parents’ money to buy useless stuff (I started collecting vintage toys like crazy because there were a lot) to play up the whole “daydreamer/eccentric/permanent child” archetype. I must have spend at least $500 over the last three years. They’re paying all my hospital bills and stuff and here I was buying junk bc “that’s just the way I am” and it’s not even the way I actually am…

Well, here is my advice. We all do stupid things in our youth. Its a period of finding yourself, and learning who you are- for…

Elsen again — no, the thing is… I don’t know how familiar you are with “OFF” but Elsen aren’t very… “exciting.” Basically they kinda just take orders. And I’m starting to realize that the main reason I act so vocally eccentric is because people have always told me that it’s “better to stand out.” I don’t -like- standing out! I’m just doing it because I’m “supposed” to. So either way I’m still taking orders… I just feel like a decade plus of misconceptions is too much to apologize for.

I don’t really see what you have to apologize for, personally. But then, I don’t really see a way out of your situation either. I…

Uh, w0w… I uh never really heard 0f that bef0re… Yeah, I’ve actually, used th0se terms bef0re… Um. As well as having “0thers”, I als0 have, uh… vague species? That’s when I’m s0me kind 0f animal, but it’s just me as an animal? Yeah, it’s weird.

Well, you mentioned that you believed you were a shifter- it may be that you have no ‘natural’ resting state, and merely take on aspects…

i’m personally uncomfortable with the use of “otakukin” given the implications of the word otaku, i’d prefer if you used the term “mediakin” or “fictionkin” for your links

The articles in my links were written before the term mediakin or fictionkin were created. I was in fact, one of the people who first…

0h, uh… c00l. Uh, I’ve g0t a wh0le bunch 0f headmates, it’s kinda weird actually. S0mething we’ve talked ab0ut is their interacti0n with the w0rld. After discussi0n, 0ne 0f them (a girl named BeckySarah) explained that I (the 0ne wh0 this b0dy 0riginally bel0nged t0) act as a buffer between them and the real w0rld. When they interact with the 0utside w0rld, we “merge” and bec0me 0ne in s0me ways. At this p0int it’s pretty much imp0ssible t0 tell wh0’s wh0.

Are you familiar with Multiplicity/Plurality? It sounds to me like you’re a median system. http://astraeasweb.net/plural/glossary.html
