#fictotype

It seems like the goal for a lot of tumblr alterhumans and therians is to perfectly map out their identites onto origin terms and labels that all feel distinctly different. I definitely think my draconic identity could look like a classic kintype from one angle and otherlink for another, whereas my robot identity could look either fitting under the otherkin label, some kind of fictionfolk label or even a hearttype label. I'm sure some of my identites could even look orthohuman (i.e those coming from self-insertion and the like) from certain angles. Like I dunno I don’t think this shit is inherently straightforward I think it depends.

okay I'm curious- fellow fictionkin, what do you call your fictotype (as in, exactly as they appear in your source media) to differentiate them from yourself? I call him my "canon counterpart" but I just started wondering if other people have different phrases for that

I really wish I only had one kin, I want to have a hoard of plushy’s and masks and things of my kin’s but that’s really hard cause I’m a billion different creatures and characters
