I can’t stand the tumblr otherkin community, but especially the fictionkin side where everyone claims a million different kins, think being otherkin is a mental illness / coping mechanism, etc. As a fictionkin, are there any better communities out there that aren’t full of the bs that tumblr in general offers, that is at the same time accepting of fictionkin and minors?

Sadly, right now the tumblr community is the most active community of fictionkin. There are some forums that are good (i recommend incanon.org) but even…

I hope my question makes sense. I already know that I’m fictionkin, but this is about a different fandom. I’ve felt pulled to this series since I was a really small kid, so much so that I was borderline obsessed with it before I even knew much about it. My obsession faded as I got older, but the series still holds an intense “pull” for me for no discernible reason, moreso than any other fandom (including the one I know I’m from). Should I consider the possibility of a kintype from this series?

Its possible, but its also possible that this is just a series that is meaningful to you. 🙂

I’m making a list to try and find out my kin, and I’m sure it’s some sort of forest creature simply because I always feel calmer when I’m surrounded by trees, but can abilities from past lives leak into your current? Because if so, I’d like to ad d a few to my list

Yes, abilities you had in past lives can sometimes contribute to abilities in this life 🙂

Has there seriously been a push from within the fictionkin community to associate kin identity with mental illness? What the hell? Has the community really started to regress that badly?

There’s been a push from OUTSIDE the fictionkin community by a small group of self identified “fictionkin” who have more in common with copinglinkers to associate…

can hearttypes also come in shifts like kintypes? like one day you resonate with them more than most days ? idk if that makes any sense

Yes, you can definitely have times where you’re more ‘in tune’ with your hearttypes!

lately I’ve been feeling very strongly that I am fictionkin but when I talk to my friends about this, they tell me I can’t be because I’m not mentally ill. is there anything wrong with this? should I call them my synpaths or comfort characters instead?

Your friends don’t understand what being fictionkin means. It has nothing to do with mental illness. Please tell them they’re wrong and show them this…

Is it normal for one of my only kintypes I was positive about for a long time to “fade away” after i met the person from my canon i missed more than anything? I just don’t get kinfeels for her anymore, even though I did for years, and I don’t miss him anymore. thanks!

Generally no, actual kintypes don’t fade away. However, its possible that you got enough closure by meeting the person you missed that the kintype is…

Is there anything wrong with being a fictionflicker?? Because while I have my core group of fictives who never leave me and who front from time to time, I fictionflicker with almost every new media.

Nothing wrong at all with being a fictionflicker! Its just another state of being 🙂

I’m worried I may be a fictionflicker… How do I know?

Do you pick up identities/shifts from fictional characters for a while after you’ve been exposed to their media? Does this happen frequently? Does it fade…
