(First of all, apologies if I already asked this, I can’t remember) but what is your opinion on people who are kin with fictionalized version of real people (Hamilton kin for example)? Would it be considered factkin? Is it even possible or “okay”, so to speak, to have kin feelings for these characters?

I don’t really have an ‘opinion’, in a strong way. My feeling is that if you’re from a fictionalized version of history, yes you’re probably fictionkin. …

Hey, so I have this story idea I’m working on, and I’ve worked out most of the details, but while I was on Tumblr the other day it became apparent that the premise of the story is eerily similar to fictionkin for someone who doesn’t know much about fictionkin, with a few key differences. I really don’t want to offend anyone with this. Should I keep going with it or come up with something else?

I say go for it there’s no harm in writing fiction. I’m curious to know what your premise is that its close to fictionkin!

To the anon asking about shifting: I’m a shifter too, and I’m always aware of it. I don’t know where the idea that you’re not supposed to be aware of a shift even comes from? I’ve never heard that anywhere except in like… goofy werewolf movies or something. Some people might not be aware of their shifts, but it’s an individual thing in both cases.

I think the idea came from people confusing shifts with ‘switching’, which is only experienced by multiples.

Hey, when you’re shifting, is it possible to still be aware of what you’re saying/doing/how your mannerisms have changed? For example, I am kin with Harley Quinn from Suicide Squad, and once in awhile, I will speak with her accent, and my walking habits change dramatically (I go from hunched shuffling to nearly bouncing along the pavement) Nothing particularly triggers the shifts from what I can tell (this is the first kin I’ve had where I’ve shifted multiple times)

Absolutely! I’m almost always aware when I’ve shifted!

Sorry if you’ve been asked this before, but do you know of any fictionkin communities that are for adults? Tumblr fictionkin community seems to be overwhelmingly minors and very few people are willing to interact with me, plus blogs like kinsdrama and other drama-based blogs make me feel particularly unsafe, even if I AM technically an adult and shouldn’t feel unsafe because of a minor’s behavior, but.. It’s complicated, but I also don’t want to entirely disconnect from fictionkin stuff

I’ve recently started a small, informal skype group for adult alterhumans, primarily fictionkin. If this is something you’re interested in, please contact me privately off…
