tfw ppl say "i love your character" & weird awkward brain conflict sets in immediately bc "you" & "your character" fused into inseparable constructs a long fuckin time ago lol
@skolli huh, you managed to articulate a discomfort that I hadn't really realized needed articulating but thank you because now I realize why that makes me uncomfortable when people say "your character" referring to me
@IrisKalmia @skolli oh absolutely
@Felthry @IrisKalmia extra fucked up that most ppl dont -have- this kinda feeling so its not like i can just say "hey could you not" w/o getting pushback/ppl doing it even more as a fuck-you
boy i sure do love this lol
@Motodrachen @skolli @IrisKalmia I mean I'm definitely kin, there's never been any doubt about that since we learned what the word meant
@Felthry @skolli @IrisKalmia I went from not considering myself otherkin to shooting straight past that into wildly uncharted areas. I mean does it count when an otherworldly spirit shows up when you're 33?
@Motodrachen @skolli @IrisKalmia Oh, I understand what it is, just that my definition wouldn't have anything "beyond" it because it includes _everything_ that isn't human
@Motodrachen @skolli @IrisKalmia I've generally just used the term otherkin to refer broadly to any non-human identity of any intensity. Is that not how you use it?
