Hi so I have two questions if you don’t mind! Is it normal to have be fickin and also have fictives? Also, is it considered.. weird/etc for all your kin/fictives to come from just one place? I’ve only recently started coming to terms with being fickin and I’ve suddenly met with two fictives as well, and my 3 kin and fictives all ‘originate’ from one work of fiction. I hope I worded that understandably and thanks :)

Your question was worded just fine. 🙂 It is absolutely common (I won’t say ‘normal’) to be a fictionkin who has headmates, whether they are fictive…

Listen, I hate to sound mean, but if multiple people believe they are the same character, it debunks their claims. In addition to this, if you believe you are a character that was originally portrayed by an actor or actress, you’re wrong. You may seriously relate to them, but you can, in no way, be them. Again, sorry, but it’s true.

Point the first, you don’t sound mean, you sound smug and condescending. Point the second, even if you assume that there is only ONE version…

I’m pretty sure I’m fictionkin, but I tend to cycle through characters. Most of the time, everyone is background noise, living in my wacky cross-canon mind hotel, with one very dominant character who I start to emulate (usually without meaning to). I get teasing comments about how the character and I are clones. And then a year later, it’s a different character. It’s confusing! It’s ruined friendships because I “change” personality so often. Any advice?

Look into soulbonding, median plurality, and healthy multiplicity. There are people out there who have had the same experiences you have, and learn how to…
