Family Nichelink or Familial Nichelink: an All-Ages nichelink relationship/relationship dynamic where the people in it consider themselves family in some way and/or emulate a familial dynamic.

this is both a standalone term and flag and a flag for a subcategory of Familial nichelinks.

this may include, but isn't limited to:

familial attraction

non-rose/tertiary attraction like cedural, tutelary etc

people who have been close friends for so long they'd earnestly consider each other family

people who identify as "found family"

the people in the nichelink being desirfamily, dissofamily, dissoage etc

headmates in a system who have a close familial-like bond but don't have completely accurate words for how they view their relation

two options for a flag. i hate them both. feel free to remake the flag.

Flags seen: Part 1 and Part 2

Morality Pet Nichelink: an All-Ages nichelink relationship/relationship dynamic where one person is the "morality pet" and the other/s are a "villain".

morality pet is a media trope where a villain character gains a friendship with an innocent/child character, and the villain becomes softer and more empathetic, stable, and less villainous over time due to their friendship. here is the page on tv tropes for examples from media.

this may include, but isn't limited to:

the villain being a recovering r*dqueer who wants to become less mean/toxic/rude instead of encouraging it like the rqc did, and the morality pet helping them by being positive and kind to them

the villain being kin/introject/alterhuman of a villain character and still behaving very "villainous" but wanting the morality pet to help them do that less

the villain being a persecutor alter of some kind and knowingly using this relationship to become less antagonistic/harmful to others/themself

the villain having a heavily stigmatized disorder and identifying with/reclaiming "evil" "villain" related words/tropes

the morality pet being an age regressor, chronosian, a dissodic youth-related term or a young alter who likes the idea of a villain as their caretaker/parental figure

familial, alterous, tutelary or other teritary attraction

i hope it's obvious, but for the persecutor alter example i gave, that's only for a persecutor who is okay being called a "villain". that won't be comfortable or even healthy for everyone.

Kid+Sitter: an All-Ages nichelink relationship/relationship dynamic where one person is the "(baby)sitter" and one is the "kid."

"kid" can be replaced with "child" etc. the flag is inspired by the system caretaker flag and colors i associate with babysitters trying to be cool and relatable to kids.

this isn't the same as being an agereg or syskid caretaker, it is a committed specific relationship dynamic (that you might even start because you want to care for an age regressor or syskid).

this may include, but isn't limited to:

non-rose/tertiary attraction like cedural, tutelary etc

wanting the dynamics of Parent+Child but the sitter specifically not wanting to identify as a parent

the kid wanting the dynamics of Parent+Child but specifically not wanting to identify as related or having parents

the kid being an age regressor, age slider, chronosian, dissoage/dissotime/dissoperpetualbaby/dissotraumayounger/dissoconnochildhood, desirchild/desirpermachild etc etc

the kid being a syskid/youthful headmate in a system and the sitter being a protector/designated syskid caretaker headmate

the kid being under some obligation to the sitter at certain times and having to follow rules they set

the kid also being in a Parent+Child nichelink and the sitter being someone the parent trusts to watch the kid when they can't
