Lately I’ve been getting a lot of memory flashes that are pretty clearly from the life of a specific character. They feel like memories, and they all seem familiar or right. I think I might be kin with him, which would also explain some of the missing abilities I’ve had my whole life and actually a whole lot about me. The thing is, I don’t believe in souls? I believe in a singular consciousness in each person, but not souls. I just don’t know how else to explain things I’ve felt my entire life.

I feel for you, anon. Souls and such weren’t on my radar when I first started awakening as kin. Here’s the thing. Its okay to…

Lately I started ‘getting back’ my memories, but from different… life, I guess? I also started feeling like I’m out of place. I tried looking up some characters that I know, but I couldn’t feel any bigger connection to them – although, I feel like I know some of them for a pretty long time as friends or enemies. I also got some kind of visions about some character, that is not from anything I know, but I feel like it’s me. Is it possible to be a kin of nonexistent character?

Now, I think I’m first character I was questioning, but I’m not exactly sure. Any advice on how I can figure out who my kinself is?

Well, the easiest way would be if you had any memories- that would probably clear things right up because they’d be from your kinself’s perspective.…

I feel like I literally ‘am’ Sariel from Touhou sometimes. I’ve always felt a strong, unexplained connection to them ever since I first discovered them, and a lot of times I feel like I have ‘phantom wings’ for lack of a better term, flexing my shoulders as if moving my wings. I do use my identity as a coping mechanism, but I don’t think it was the sole reason it was created since my home situation started getting worse after Sariel started to grow in me. Not sure what to call myself?

You sound like fictionkin to me, if you believe that you ‘are’ Sariel in any way. Its totally okay and normal to use your identity to…
