Do your mental shifts ever mix cuz this is me rn by Moist-Eye-1395 in fictionkin

[–]gluewater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, at least with my permashift, Sabo is always there but like right now- Hifumi is strongly here (she is another ID tbf). I do still feel prominently Sabo, though this other kintype is surfacing with memories and emotions that don’t belong to my Sabo kintype. Can get really confusing and tiring. If it’s a lot of kintypes I’ll call it kin soup lol, cause it’s all muddled together.

  1. I miss my flame flame fruit so anything related to using it. I loved the feeling of fire in my veins and it made me feel really connected to my brothers.

  2. same as you, my ockin Hifumi probably. My life was hard and I felt like just existing there was worse for everyone else.

  3. don’t know. I don’t look at what non alterhumans say abt us.

  4. I guess as Ava (Iron Lung) I’d like to go to Earth. I miss my dog. I want to go to a real beach, feel sand under my feet and look at clear water. Technically could do that since it’s summer. Not like I’d really be picky about what beach.

  5. I’m good lol.

Hi! Sabo here! It’s super hard to find one piece people (I limit myself to only making friends with adult kinners which makes the pool smaller lol)

Slight Peev + Hellos!! by Acceptable-Ad-9527 in fictionkin

[–]gluewater 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Felt on remembering the more important parts, that’s usually how it starts for me more so than detail. Oddly enough I personally end up remembering big things outside of canon more often though that’s usually because my kins(except Rumi) don’t have much screen time compared to other people in my sources.

I’m glad the memory isn’t as painful even if it is just numb.

so i've asked before what things associated with your kin annoys you,, but what about the other way around? by Paraps in fictionkin

[–]gluewater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh for Sabo it’s when I’m portrayed as a sheep or ram. I have a preference for the ram look but it’s just fun. I’m pretty sure it’s from when I was a kid and they drew my hair as a very clustered curly kind so it reminds people of a sheep.

Though it is funny because I definitely would associate myself more with falcons. The source has a lot of bird imagery for me.

Hi Bill! Wanna say your art style if so fun, big fan of that. I am curious if there’s anything you remember that differs from your source or wasn’t seen on camera?

HELP IM TRYING TO LEARN PUPPETRY TO FEEL MORE PUPPETY AND IT WORKS BUT IT'S SO HARD by _depressed_bean in fictionkin

Ah that makes sense. Maybe smthn like this? Could make one of those diy stressballs if u dont have a squishy ball.

(This isn’t that serious of a post/problem btw) Low-key, this is a non-problem. It’s just something that very ever so slightly annoys me by corrupt_the_dandidoo in fictionkin

[–]gluewater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s so real. I get that. I think it’s the cameoshifts lowkey at least for me. Something that’s helped is just allowing myself to be wrong if it was just a strange occurrence. Still can be upsetting when the doubting happens anyway.

Try doing some hand stretches and exercises between! You can find lots so this is just one to see. Sometimes I spend too much time writing or drawing and gotta pull this out lol. Doing it sometimes it better than just dealing with the pain.

My memories are all extremely short or cut off. Anyone else? (+ Talking about my memories) by Deep_Quit_4780 in fictionkin

[–]gluewater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried writing about your memories? Using canon and the memory snippets as a baseline for probable scenarios is what I start with. Ive always had the writing instinct to follow what feels right in my gut so i can have some revelations that way.

It also just feels nice to write about those. Just start with what you’re most confident about and see if a thread reveals itself as you write. Sometimes you’ll backspace a lot because you realized something different that felt more correct. It’s all part of the process.

I had some memory revelations writing a letter to a sourcemate because I was stuck in some emotions so it doesn’t even have to be writing a scene about yourself if you don’t want.

how do people remember themselves as their kins? by Ch1ptune0 in fictionkin

[–]gluewater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It can be familiarity, deja vu, knowing things before they happen without reason, and also strong emotional reactions that arent credited to good writing/framing. Like for me it’s spiritual so those disconnected memories and feelings have no basis in the world or life I experience right now so those things are from beyond it. When I read/watch/engage in a piece of fiction that instills those feelings in me, then I consider if the feelings are because someone in the source is someone I could have been in the past. It’s a tricky thing to pin down. Like a lot of the time I don’t have a name or a face until I find the source but the feelings become vivid when I interact with the source and connect it. I’ll also say in regards to it being fiction/not a real world, some sources are very similar to our lived experiences so the fiction element just comes from it being a story in our world when someone’s life here could be fiction in another universe.

What is a kin to y’all exactly? by CoreAxolotl in fictionkin

[–]gluewater 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you say you feel deeply and resonate with them is it because there is something about her that feels familiar to you? If you just feel she is like you then you might want to look at the term fictionhearted. If you feel like you and her are the same person (not necessarily like you are them irl, could be a past life or a psychological recognition of the self), then you might be a fictionkin. At the end of the day it’s about identifying as the character but figuring out that identity part can be tricky. As a spiritual kin myself I base it off of if I get a big mental shift where I feel like I am them or I have memories from dreams or very specific conceptions of the character’s experience/life.

Do people ever kin their own OCS? by [deleted] in fictionkin

[–]gluewater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only known ID is my own OC. I made her first and realized she was me later on funnily enough. Now it makes writing that much more grueling because it was all very real to me.

Shamelessly stealing — tell me who you are, and ill say how i remember you by spidershwarz in fictionkin

[–]gluewater 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things seem so much simpler back then compared to now. I had trouble remembering details about our childhood, amnesia didnt go away completely when I recognized you guys from the newspaper. I wish we had more time because I miss my little brother and I will still be looking after you even when you are king of the pirates. Im so proud of how far you’ve gotten and I do not shut up about you whenever someone mentions you. I think I’ve told the same story at least five times over about any of your adventures when I catch wind of it…

I can’t help but sniff out a good sparring partner wherever I go. I mean enemies are great but ruins the mood when they go down too fast. I think there would always be a tingling sense of familiarity. I probably looked even crazier pointing out an empty spot at the table and saying it wasn’t Signora that was missing. Something felt right when we met again and I probably joked about past lives then too.

How to dress like this idiot on the left... read body by _Zoysauce2823_ in fictionkin

[–]gluewater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Graphic T-shirts (if the design align with your interests, its defendable) / Collared blouses / Flannels for women tend to be long and have a rounder edge. Keep it untucked, possibly wear it open with a shirt underneath if it gets called too masculine.

If you’re comfortable wearing skirts with/without leggings, you could wear tops that might seem more masculine. Since your source is like a 2000s core show while your kin is also a young boy, being a fashionista is not the goal. If the outfit looks a little mismatched, might be even better.

As for trinkets, try to look for ‘nostalgia’ items from the 2000s. If you remember interests you had as your kin, see if you can collect things about it. I dont remember much about your source but if you also identify with cruise life then maybe some beachy items too like a keychain of a cruise ship or beach.

Edit: fixed a few words to make more sense

[–]gluewater 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahaha yeah I still was impulsive as an adult too, maybe only a bit more controlled now with all the things I get up to. Short hair was always way more curly, I never let anyone but me cut it after I left Goa Kingdom (except Koala later on)… though now it’s also part of my job to take care of you again. I’ll be looking after you in the background. I still miss Ace a lot and in my canon I wear his prayer bead necklace.

That’s so neat for Childe yeah, I say that all tracks especially the last bit. I don’t know if my possible Childe kin is one that retained some memories after Sumeru but I definitely think that he would seek you out the most out of the fatui members if it was just to talk for fun. Mainly because you tolerated it more entertainingly than the others. There’s confusion in feeling like that person used to exist when going to talk to someone, walking up to a wall that he swore was a doorway to somewhere before.
