K-Pop Demon Hunters feels so much like an allegory of self harm and hiding abuse.

I mean, Rumi hides "patterns" (self harm scars) because Celine made her feel like she was never supposed to be born. And while growing up, more "patterns" kept showing up on Rumi, so Celine just made Rumi cover up her self-harm scars, don't get help from friends.

And finally, Rumi finds someone who understands. Someone with the same self harm scars, someone who gave in because he made the mistake of letting go of his family.

"Demons have no feelings" is something that isn't true. It's the same thing as "Those who self harm are eternally depressed with no cure"

The end of the movie is about not needing to feel ashamed that you used to self harm. It's about embracing how you were born, standing up to your abuser telling them that you love who you are, and finally: healing. No longer is Rumi afraid to show the scars she's had over the years. No longer is she self harming. And now, she's surrounded by people who don't judge her for having those scars and being born a certain way. She gets to grow and heal.

Oh my Hylia I'm so glad that the sexy rocks contest came up while I'm co-fronting because all those rocks look so delicious. I want to eat them.

"Problematic" Kintypes

How you behaved, and what you believed, and the feelings you acted on in a previous life or as another version of your self does not necessarily correlate what you believe, how you behave, and the feelings you act on now, in this life.

In the last couple of years I have gotten a lot of deeply personal, hand-wringing and guilty feeling asks about fictionkin or people questioning kin about "problematic kintypes".

"If I am this person, if this is my kintype, that means I-"

"that means I was in love with my brother."

"That means I committed genocide"

"That means I was in an inappropriate relationship with someone older/younger than me."

Yeah. Maybe it does mean that.

But the thing is that a kintype isn't a thing you can decide to have or not have based on whether or not a character is "problematic" or "pure". If you can 'decide' whether something is a kintype or not, then it's not a kintype, it's something else.

A kintype is an innate, immutable fact about yourself that is impossible to extract yourself from.

And sometimes - most of the time! - kintypes come with some kind of emotional baggage.

A lot of us were not good people in our other lives, fuck knows I wasn't! I've killed lots and lots of people, some of which I didn't regret then and don't regret now, some of which I didn't regret then and DO regret now. And that's just scratching the surface of my complicated feelings and problematic actions.

But what you did as your kintype, and what you believed was okay then, doesn't dictate what you believe is okay, and what you do now. All of us took actions in our other lives that we regret or that we would do differently in this life. Or maybe we WOULDN'T! There are also things, dark parts of ourselves, that we accept and cherish, even if we don't tell other people about those parts.

Everybody has kintype feelings that they struggle with. That's part of being fictionkin. Some of those things are going to be heavier, or lighter, easier or more difficult to deal with.

But if you can base your decision on whether or not you're kin based on whether or not a character is "too problematic" then that's not a kintype.

And if you do have a kintype that makes you feel uncomfortable, and is problematic and you struggle with feelings about -

Welcome to what it means to be fictionkin. We're here to support each other.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Why. Why. Why.

We could feel someone forming. Why is it this guy?!

Btw your favourite "headcanon" was probably drawn/written by a fictive or fictionkin. Everyone say thank you to fictives and fictionkin for carrying fandom <3

Update to switching:

We've gotten so close to switching twice.

Linkle and I almost switched but then I was yanked back into the front because the body needed something that very second and it couldn't wait.

The second time was a bit earlier. Rouge and I were blending together for about an hour before... Well, I "came out on top" or however you want to phrase it.

[galaxy-ramblings]

ive been lurking for some time now, looking at your blog here and there, and looking at it now im very happy to see you discovered yourself as median. theres.. not a lot of us i can point out in the wild, so its really nice, makes me feel like im not alone in this

i hope you're having a good time, as good as possible at least

So, I'm not a median. I'm a median system. Is that what you meant?

Sorry if you think I'm a median- I'm not but like, respect to you and other medians out there.

Ashley Graves from The coffin of Andy and LeyLey has Borderline Personality disorder!

requested by: my girlfriend

[galaxy-ramblings]

Wow. Just like me for real, then!

too domesticated to survive by myself too feral to be content being taken care of

Please please please for the love of everything, just let us switch. Linkle wants to front I don't. This should be so fucking easy. Literally it should be. We're not stressed. We trust each other. We're in a safe space. We've got a positive trigger object. She has her own playlist.

There's literally nothing that should stop us. (Except for the fact we can't dissociate)

We've been trying everything that Google, Reddit, YouTube, and Tumblr have said to try.

Sleeping, hypnosis, meditation, doing absolutely nothing except wait for a few hours, handing off the keyboard and mouse that controls the body in the inner world, etc.

Literally... everything that we could find. Please. I don't want to be in front. Linkle wants to be. Like, at least let me co-con while she fronts if that's what it takes. I'm fine with that. Just let us switch for fucks sake

[galaxy-ramblings]

Misclicked. 😭😭 I tried pressing "I do" but my hand slipped

Do you kin a character from a media that has no official canon (in one way or another)?

[galaxy-ramblings]

this legit made me stop believing in knight papyrus

[galaxy-ramblings]

Host is being so dramatic. I'm on a date and she's being so dramatic with the fact we only got 4 hours of sleep. Wish we could switch so she can get rest

"keep your gross ships to yourself!!" is basically just "i do not feel obligated to curate my online experience and go into spaces that i do not like and then complain about it because i believe the entire internet should conform to my morals and my values. i also cannot use the block button."
