What’s the difference between ID and kin? Do you choose your ID?

The problem with “ID” as a term is that it doesn’t have a set definition and means different things to different people. Some people who…

If you’re homestuck kin and you were in a sprite with someone, would you be able to get memories of the other half of the sprite? How much of the other’s memories would you be able to get?

I was never sprited and I am sure it happened to people different ways in different timelines. My memory is that sprites with multiple people…

What if u choose to id as a character, but then after lotsa research and introspection, it turns out that you’re actually kin??

I’m sure that happens sometimes. Likely one would have chosen to ID as the character because unconsciously they ‘knew’ that it was them.

Yo, what’s ancestral awakening?

‘Ancestral Awakening’ was a magical transformation– lets call it a ‘stat buff’ that was caused by rolling all eights on my flourite octet (magic dice) as…

Isn’t fictionhearted feeling a familial relationship to that character? I’m not fictionhearted myself, but I am dragonhearted and I describe that as seeing the dragon spirits around me as my true family. So, wouldn’t fictionhearted be less of “I want to be that” and more of “I feel that character is very close to me”?

It can be a familial connection, but it also can be feeling like you empathize so much with that character that you feel like you ‘are’…

Do you have any other kintypes other than Ken???

Yes, Vriska (specifically (Vriska) as well as Mindfang due to Ancestral Awakening) from Homestuck, and Pearl from Steven Universe.

Have you seen the blog racistkin? I like outside opinions as well, so what do you think about that? Not a single post I read on there actually said how being kin outside your race actually hurts poc. None of these posts seem to understand the concept of reincarnation either. I want these concepts covered by the blog because they are giant holes in their reasoning. I’m neither here not there on the issue yet, more information is needed.

I’m pretty sure i have the blog @racistkin blocked, and I advise everyone else do the same. They don’t understand what they’re talking about and…

Hey! Is it possible to identify as a place ? I always feel nostalgic when I look vintage circus pictures and the ambivalence between cheerfulness and eeriness fascinate me. As a disabled and autistic girl, I have a very strong connection with freak-shows (maybe I was in one of them in my past life, who knows ?) . I know it sounds a little ridiculous, but it remind me of my own mind: full of whismy, wonder and playful chaos. What do you think about it? :Does “Circuskin” exist ? :/

Please do not take this response as a criticism of your feelings or emotional connections. What you are feeling is completely valid and awesome, the…

Is it strange that I get happy when people headcanon things that are from my canon? Like, in my canon, I was partially blind, and seeing people headcanon it makes me smile. (Sorry if this isn’t the sort of question you’ll answer. Feel free to delete it!)

I don’t think its strange at all. I tend to get a warm little feeling when I see fanart that looks the way I perceive…

3rd time trying to ask, hope it gets to you! 1) Can you be fictionhearted w/ a character without wanting to take on their form? 2) Is it possible to trigger a phantom limb? Thank.

1) It depends. Being fictionhearted is pretty much wanting to be a character or fictional creature in a way, but you don’t necessarily have to…
