Craziest thing about being fictionkin is that people just have merch of me.

asking the wider community - I'm sure i know the answer already but id love to hear comments - can you be 'kin with something you feel no connection to?

we're starting to realize we're probably a fox, but we feel next to no connection or interest in foxes. it just makes sense as the animal we would be, as far as shifts and behaviors and personality go. we at least havent found any other animal that matches as closely as foxes do.

we dont feel Like A Fox 24/7, only when we think about it do we go, yeahhh, thats what that is. otherwise we just feel canid, fluffy, light-footed, etc... fox descriptors, but not specifically fox, if that makes sense. its like we have to remember what our kintype is.

anyone have similar experiences or advice? should i keep looking for other animals it could be?

every time I look at strawberry cream cookie I go “oh that’s me”. even though I know their story and feel nothing about it/have no memories/act nothing like them I’m always just. oh that’s me!

me: yeah I mean the moment that sub special came out and 15 was introduced I instantly knew I was them. I gravitated to and related to them so much, even though I’m nothing like them. maybe I just heavily relate to their appearance?

also me, today: I wanna live in a cabin in the woods alone soooo bad

”I wouldn’t be surprised if rain world was just someone’s ’kin memories that they made into a game” <thing I’ve thought unironically multiple times

I can remember the smell of rain. You could feel it, sense it, nigh every creature was evolved to know it was coming. the distant rumbling and the scent slowly growing stronger and humidity rising, I was so attuned to it. it was the world’s way of telling you the cycle is over, get some rest. I miss the rain.

maybe the source memories were the friends we made along the way

just realized my fixation on drawing/designing characters with one damaged eye is because of me being hunterkin. very affirming!

I think when I age regress, at least sometimes, I act a lot like the watcher. my eyes go all big and I get all quiet and I just kinda toddle around being itty bitty. although to be fair when interacted with I’m very very vocal…but that just could be how I am in this life, anyways

I’m wondering how much my fascination with/adoration of stars & rain & void is watcherkin or if I’m just. Like That. because I’ve been like that for a long, long time. like since forever. I’ve always loved the rain. And I’ve always felt connected to the stars. I use rain/drop and star/stars and astro/astros, our system name has had “void” in it from the very beginning. I remember I took a “what’s your gender” uquiz once and the result was the void between stars, and I instantly felt ‘kin feelings. At the time I thought I was just voidkin, but…

it feels almost a little obvious in retrospect that these were signs of being the watcher, but it’s almost hard to believe. it’s been like this for years. for almost as long as I can remember. it feels like that’s just…how it is, y’know? how I am in this life.

but maybe it isn’t.
