Okay, you know what. I'm getting real sick of people saying Sergei was right to call the mutant police on me who sent me back to be experimented on and locked away. Yes, I was dangerous, but was locking me away and experimenting on me really the answer? Isolating me from all of my friends? People saying Sergei has "always been right" about the people he takes issues with is like. Such a bad fucking take because it misunderstands what I feel is a core element of his character: NO ONE would be save enough in his eyes. Not for Sanya. He was overprotective, controlling, and he's isolating her because of it. He's not evil or anything! He very much cares for her and is doing what *he thinks* is right, but someone doing what *THEY THINK* is right doesn't always mean it actually IS right. He has good intents, I hold no ill will towards him, but can you guys stop fucking acting like he is right just because he's trying to do the right thing? Ever heard the saying, "the road to hell is paved with good intents?" Seriously. I was... I was a teenager. I didn't... I didn't want to be separated from my friends like that. He hurt me, and everyone is now acting like he was right to! I *was* dangerous but it wasn't my fault I was, and yet I got punished over and over again for something I couldn't help. It's not fair. Did all of you just forget that he called the mutant police on me? Are we all just cool with that now? I. I really don't want to sound bitter towards Sergei, because I'm not - I just hate that people act like he was right, when I feel like his choices are morally dubious at best! Sorry. This sounds so negative and I don't like being negative, but I just hate that there's this rising trend in the fandom where we act like he did nothing wrong.

Denna: My favorite game is to act like I can’t understand something very simple when a man is explaining it to me to see how dumb he thinks I am.

Ambrose: This, my dear, is called deception.

Denna: What do you mean?

Ambrose: It’s a form of dishonesty that you are using for self gain or amusement. It's actually quite sophisticated stuff, well done.

Denna: Sorry, I don’t get it?

The pedantic tentacles of mansplaining touch everything from the 21st century – call it “the defining phenomenon” of the century. Because there are some things that women just can’t “get”. Like, the last presidential campaign and Rick and Morty.

Here are 10+ hilariously accurate tweets explaining mansplaining that’ll make every woman laugh & then cry:

Glad to see more Parties are for Losers kins out there... I've been kinning KT since KT's official guide to coolness came out, so for... four years now? I haven't really checked in with the community that much, but I remember back then I never saw a lot of kins, so it's cool to see more of you guys now! I hope you're all taking care of yourselves, especially after 100 epitaphs came out. I'm kind of just chilling since I haven't really shown up in the last 8 songs. I'm Looking intensely at what's happening with Dima and Yura. I don't like to see them fighting - and I'm especially worried for Yura! He's going through so much trouble to help me, when I don't really think I'm really worth it. People have already died, which makes me really worried.

I'm also worried about Sanya. She always had a complicated relationship with Sergei, and I'm not sure if her breaking away from him will be a good thing or not. Sergei was definitely overprotective and controlling, but they also loved each other very much. I do think he wanted what was best for her - but I don't think she's wrong by any means, because he tried to force her to do what he thought was best for her without listening to her wants and needs. He was - again - controlling. And while I sympathize with the reasoning behind his actions and can see why he felt he had to do what he did, it's stifling her, it was killing her. He was a toxic presence in her life, and I'm proud of her for standing up for herself... but I also can understand where he was coming from too. He was trying to keep her safe, but he only ever drove her away, and he... just gave up. Sanya wasn't wrong - I know that. He was trying to isolate her by taking Yura away from her, and maybe he's right that Yura is dangerous, but... it's still not right to take away Sanya's only friend. Well - not her only friend. I was her friend, too - until Sergei took me away. And I was... dangerous. I was definitely, definitely dangerous, sure. But when he constantly keeps taking away her only friends, there comes a point where it's obvious - he's isolating her. No one would be safe enough for Sanya. Everyone would always be a threat to her in his mind, so he would isolate her from everyone. And he would say it was to protect her - and maybe he believes it - but all it will do is isolate her. He wants to shut out the world for her, because he thinks the world is cruel.

It's... everyone I met seems to think that. That the world is cruel, not worth letting in. Dima thought that too. And... I don't want them to be right. I don't think they're right. Maybe the world is cruel sometimes, but it can be kind sometimes, too.

I don't think shutting it out is the right option. But. Maybe I'm a hypocrite- because even I thought it would be easier to shut out the world, too.

I just - really hope my friends end up okay.

I hope any other PAFL kins are keeping themselves safe out there, too. You're all great. Remember kindness.

- KT <3

You know what? I'm tired of being seen as a cool "main character" when I'm really just getting the short end of the stick over and over again. I'm tired of having my whole life upheaved and taken from me in an instant. I'm tired of being forcibly and violently separated from everyone I love far too soon. I'm tired of feeling like a literal curse is still following me and that it will never end.

I'm tired of dying young. I'm tired of being terrified to even reach the age of 25 because it's been so long since I managed to make it that far. The day is rapidly approaching but I still don't know how to have plans for my life beyond that; I don't know how to not be so afraid of losing everything, of having to start over and go through it all again, that I just embrace it as inevitable. I'm tired of being stuck living in the past out of fear of the future. I'm tired of feeling like it must be because I deserve it.

I'm tired of remembering.

To any 'kin out there with no or very few memories: Please don't feel like you're lesser for it. I'm happy for you.

Dear Princess Twilight,

Kingrats on your further self-discovery! I'm playing through Scarlet right now myself. (Apologies in advance for the long response.)

For me, time between consuming source and kinfirming has been dependent mainly on two factors: how similar to/different from the in-media depiction my own canon is, and whether I have the right vocabulary to apply to the experience.

My first two kinfirms were technically years after finishing the (original) sources. Regarding the first, I had always still thought of myself as being... well, myself, but assumed it was more like a normal thing everyone felt when just relating to somebody, I guess. I was young and didn't realize how much the intensity mattered or that it was different, and had no awareness this community even existed until I was older (so, a lack of vocabulary).

The second was mostly because the source depiction isn't actually me, and I struggled with reconciling how I could feel so differently about the events shown versus what I thought of as more accurate, things I swore I just knew. I hated everything about this person seen in canon, yet still defended them to everyone's criticism, insisting "it's not like that" to how people widely (mis)understood them. Eventually I found a particular AU fan comic I resonated with a lot, and realized it from there (an issue with difference from canon).

By contrast, with my two absolute most significant past life identities, I didn't even need to finish sources to know that I'm in them, at least. For one, the gut feeling was instant; the problem was just figuring out where/how I was involved. I nearly kinfirmed incorrectly after the second day of starting source, and had to tell myself to step back and really evaluate why I would come to that conclusion: what were the intense feelings I obviously had towards this person actually saying? It's that she's my little sister! Whom I adore and would do anything for! (This was a vocabulary/labeling issue until I had seriously looked into all possibilities of where my feelings could be coming from.)

For the other I, again, felt immediate and intense attachment to someone, though this time it was obviously romantic attraction. (I'd chalked this up to him being similar in appearance and demeanor to a previous love interest... turns out they are indeed the same person, haha.) However, it was being re-exposed to certain traumatic events mid-source that made not just those feelings, but some I'd had my whole life, suddenly make a lot more sense. I knew as soon as it was happening in front of me; most importantly I now understood my basic core personality and the nature of my existence on a deeper level. (I'm at least slightly divergent, but everything was basically the same up to that point specifically, so this was similarity to canon.)

All in all, it depends on circumstance. I think generally as you get older and more knowledgeable/experienced with analyzing both your own feelings and media itself in these ways, it can become easier/faster to recognize kintypes. On the other hand, it can also start to take longer for some aspects as you begin to put more effort into careful consideration, as opposed to initial knee-jerk reactions... It's an interesting duality.

I love that you help keep the community active and connected with your questions and stories. Thanks to anyone who bothered reading all of this, too. Take care.

-KT

that feel when you get into a source and are very fixated on it, only to find out it's been a year since it was last updated,, i'm kt and anya from parties are for losers n i jus wanna see yura, sanya, n dima again :-((!! ( #💜🌕 )

[fictionkinfessions]

i think about those two weeks a lot.

those two weeks where everything felt the most normal. anymore normal than my life had ever been. going to those trashy parties, eating instant foods, hanging out atop buildings and watching the sun set. i think about how yura would bring me snacks and how sanya would lend me her smaller clothes. i wish that could have lasted forever. those two weeks felt like they would last forever.

i'm sorry i didn't tell you, sanya. even though we were both born with these mutations, i was worried i'd hurt you. and i'm sorry for not being open with you about it, yura. i was worried i'd scare off the only two friends i had ever had.

and i'm sorry, dmitry. maybe you were right. the world wasn't meant for people like us. for someone like me.

It was a joke between friends & I at first that made my name KT,after the TV station that my source first aired on,cause of my unique appearances on those episodes specifically,but now I remember that a certain group of people from my canon just called me KT. Just utterly ditch my name before that cause I'm a whole mess of different people now. God I hated those days so much,every fucking second was awful for me,or I guess,for us. These astral limbs are the most painful experience. -KT

[fictionkinfessionsarchived]

Oh God no one's going to remember me. I wasn't just part of one incident, no I was subjected to another,much more unbearable one. We kept wanting to die because being in that form was so torturous. I just wanna find someone who remembers me,but I doubt I will,I'm part of such an obscure au,hell,the fandom just named me after the TV station my source was on. -A very distressed & angered KT
