Hey, I was wondering if you might be able to help me out with something. I know you specialize on fictionkin but… recently a person told me that they are factkin with me. Not as a joke like some people’s “I’m factkin with this” sort of thing but actually legit factkin with me. And it really has me freaking out a bit and scared because I have a very unstable sense of identity so it really ran me through a loop. How can I cope with this? What should I do? Any advice appreciated!

Hi there, anon. I’m sorry that it took me 40 minutes to answer this ask, since I was on lunch as normally this is the…

is it unusual to actively not want to meet anyone from your canon, but to want to meet people from other canons? I rather badly hurt the main characters in my canon and I’m sure they wouldn’t want anything to do with me (and I’d have nothing to say to them anyways), but I think I could be good friends with certain people from other canons.

This doesn’t sound too unusual to me, anon. I generally enjoy meeting people from other canons/sources than my own too. 

The Persona 5 game just got a release date, and with the new trailer I feel a little too much like they just put me in it with one of the characters revealed. I went through this with P4 and found out I soulbonded one of the characters and wasn’t actually kin (I was like super panicked about it for a while). Now I’m just like, ho-hum please don’t do this. Idk. Just wanted to share I guess, bc I don’t ever talk kin or soulbonds on tumblr. It’s just frustraing at this point. You ever deal w this?

Oh yeah, anon. I hear you. Sometimes I see a glimpse of something, in a trailer, or a list on youtube or something and I;m…

Is it normal/common to be shifted nearly every day? I had a short mental shift yesterday and a longer phantom shift today into my fictotype, and most days I feel phantom body parts (but usually it’s cat-like ears or bird-like wings (but not both) that I feel, which are not a part of any kintype I know of, I only know of one so far). I’m not sure if this is the best place to ask, so sorry if it isn’t. Thanks in advance ~N.

Asking whats normal or not in the alterhuman community is a mixed bag. In my *personal* experience, I tend to shift a lot, and more…

This might be beyond your ability to answer, but do you have any advice for ‘kin who suffer with delusions? I don’t feel my kinness is inherently a delusion, but I do feel at times my experiences with it contribute to an inability to differentiate between fiction/reality. My grasp on reality can be fragile when I get into bad states, and I’m not sure how to keep infalsifiable memories and emotions from triggering a reality break.

I’m really sorry anon, I’m really ill equipped to give you advice about delusions and separating them from non-delusional internal experiences. Speaking from personal experience…
