Intimeta- is an aspec[Link] microlabel in which one feels little to no attraction to individuals they know exclusively from our CR, shared reality[Link], or otherwise what is considered "real life". Instead, they feel more attraction to individuals from their DR, their system[Link], or fictional characters. In general terms, someone whose attraction leans towards those who are not often perceived in our reality. The intimeta- prefix can be added to any attraction or orientation to indicate the intimeta- version of that attraction/orientation, such as intimetafamilial, intimetahomoromantic, etc.
The meaning of the colors in the flag(s) are:
Deep mauve- Demonstrations of affection shown by individuals who are "not in this reality", and how these can look in any way regardless of attraction
Rose pink- Attraction to individuals who are "not in this reality"
Pastel pink- Differences between both attractions, while not necessarily feeling both, as well as consent from all parties involved
Watermelon red- The mix of both attractions, blurring the lines between these, or changing from one to another
Crimson red- Disconnection from the expectations of attraction to individuals who are "in this reality"
Light indigo- Disconnection from demonstrations of affection shown by "real" beings, and how these can look in any way regardless of attraction
Consider this a mix of fictosexual[Link], plurillean[Link], shiftsexual[Link], as well as encompassing similar terms! So while it is made with yumeshippers, plurals and reality shifters in mind, it's not exclusive!
