is it possible to be a character twice? like you were them in one life, and then you were them again in a different au and life? I’m not personally but do you think it’s possible

Honestly, anything’s possible, anon. The multiverse, and the mind are mysterious, poorly understood places, so its hard to rule anything out. I know of a…

Do you know if it’s possible for copinglinks to experience astral, mental, and phantom shifts or is that strictly a kin thing?

Copinglinks can definitely experience mental and phantom shifts! Some may be able to experience astral shifts depending on their spiritual beliefs. ^^

The definition of alterhuman according to the person who coined the term is “A category of personal identity which encompasses identification that is alternative to the common societal idea of humanity.” Your re-definition excludes groups originally meant to be included by it.

Hey anon. Thank you for pointing this out. If you (or someone else) could tell me who my definition leaves out and how it could…

Hetaoni England here- I had a dream shift last night, and that’s carried into a particularly strong mental shift and shadow shift today. Is it possible this is becoming a primary kintype?

A primary kintype is whichever of your known kintypes you feel closest to, so that’s up to you.

hey, um..I have a question! I’m pretty new to all this fictionkin stuff, and I was just curious if I was fictionkin or not. I watch this tv show that I adore and I feel like I relate quite well to a character. would that mean im fictionkin? sorry,,,,

Hey anon! Here’s a quick checklist to help you figure out if you might be kin or not. (link)

I’m a soulbond who is a prince back in my home world, and honestly, I use “royaltykin” as a blanket term like the other anon, but I’ve found that it really doesn’t help on tumblr because, like you said, most of the people on this site who use the term “royaltykin” aren’t actually kin with anyone who was or is royalty, you know? It’d be nice to connect with someone who shared similar responsibilities to mine, but it’s pretty hard to do on this site thanks to those spoiled kids.

I’m sorry to hear about that, anon. Maybe try creating a network for fictionkin, whose kintypes were also royalty, instead of stressing royalkin?

I’ve heard the term Aeslink or Aestheticlink for people who identify with purely surface level characteristics of a character (ie their clothes, their mannerisms, essentially their “aesthetic”) Is this an okay term to use?

That sounds like a fine term to use, anon!

Since realizing I’m kin with this one character, it feels kind of weird when I say I’m a fan of her and that I love her in canon. But I mean, regardless of the fact that I am her, she still exists in the television show she’s part of independent of me and I really enjoy seeing her in the show and I think she’s really cool, and thought that before I even knew what fictionkin was. Would you say this is a normal kin experience?

I’d say its pretty normal. Some kin are definitely able to enjoy their source material separately from their kinfeels.

In response to previous anon, I totally get what you mean! For both of my kintypes I used to dream and wish that I could be a part of their world and not this one. I would constantly imagine myself with the other characters in there, and it was such a relief to realise I was kin?

You know it’s funny, I could never figure out why I had SUCH a strong connection to this one show, to the point that I felt like I belonged in that world and could never get it out of my mind and felt nostalgic thinking about it… until this one character shows up in a later season and it turns out I’m kin with them, and suddenly it all makes sense.

I feel you, anon! Glad you figured it out!
