I went swimming yesterday in my monofin and fabric tail to try and see if my fluke insert was truly janky or if it was a skill issue, and I learned how to swim in it properly!
It turns out I need to waterlog my tail first before I swim, or I start floating upside down. Other than that, I just need to stop focusing on the bottom half of my body, and instead remember that proper dolphin kicks require a full-body arch.
And seriously critters, it felt amazing. I felt like I had my tail back, I was finally moving the way I was supposed to.
Granted, I need to do more lung training, especially in my binder, and my showmanship leaves something to be desired, but I felt incredible. I only wish I'd been able to sing, but I didn't want to bother the others at the pool.
I did a few merformer tricks for practice, but my lung capacity is super low since I live with a smoker who just could not give two shits if I end up with severe asthma. I re-learned bubble kisses, though! That was fun! And I got out of the pool looking like a beached whale. All in all, I had so much fun.
Physical otherkin theories below:
I think I had a past life as a siren, back in the victorian era, or maybe even in the time of ancient Greece. I know things about my habitat and culture too clearly. I was reincarnated into this form.
However, I do think my family has sirenic ancestry. I mean, c'mon, our surname means "singers." They have the same underdeveloped webbing that I do. So, I think that's part of why I have parts of myself that look how I'm supposed to, or are at least reminiscent of how I used to look, and how I'm not entirely "human".
That being said, I think that my reincarnation affected my physical form, to bring out more of my ancestry. Maybe I'm my own grandpa? Lol. It's like in anime, basically. There's almost always some little, so-subtle-you-might-miss-it trait that shows the character isn't entirely human. Definitely has to do with magic of some kind. Not to mention I still have a bit of my powers, and they're growing as I age. I've moved up from enthralling bugs, to small dogs with my song, and all the animals in-between. I just wish I knew how to make it stronger. I can tell it's not my full power.
Obviously I don't want to use my powers for evil or anything, but I just want to know that I can bend others to my will if I wanted, yk? It might be a fun party trick. It might also save my life, it's just a useful skill. Besides, it connects me to my roots, and that's what's most important. I want to go back.

🐛 so im worm, im the only bagworm kin ever met in my life, im transmasc, im disabled, im gay, im an age regressor, theres a lot of stuff going on with me
🐛 if you’ve ever seen any anons bagworm posting i can guarantee that it was probably me i love rolling up to a person who makes moodboards and asking for worm
🐛 my kins r more expansive than just bagworm but this is kinda my bagworm blog, i am both otherkin and fictionkin but idk this is the worm blog its not about that, it’s mostly supposed to be like, uncommon or rare kintypes positivity
🐛 dni if you are antikin, anti age/petre, homophobic, racist, pedo, any of the standard set really, an asshole
🐛 i love blocking people so if you give me even slightly bad vibes ill straight up block you i love curating my online experience
˚₊‧꒰ა I just love kinning a character so much that I also relate to fan interpretations / headcanons. Like yeah, this character is gay / genderqueer and me too, I can comfirm >:3
No matter what it is exactly I am what’s important is that I get dysphoria over being perceived as a human. I enjoy the experience of being one with humans, and from that prospect is why I don’t mind being perceived as human (plus identity thief things) and being referred to as human, or even identifying as human. But it’s like. I may identify with it but I know deep down I’m not. Which leads to another issue when I’m trying to recognize or vocalize this feeling I am shamed, ridiculed, or told that I am wrong/my feelings don’t exist or are invalid (which is often).
You definitely use humor to cope, if not sex jokes likely dark humor
You either crack sex jokes 24/7 or sex actually makes you really uncomfortable but for some reason Angel Dust doesn't make you uncomfortable. Either way, he's very cathartic to you.
You blast "Addict", " Loser, Baby" and "Poison" at full volume so you can't hear your own thoughts
Also why do I have the feeling you watched Hazbin Hotel at like, 13-14?(or am I being self indulgent?)
You have trust issues, sure but you're also more of a people pleaser than you'd care to admit.
Oh, and you probably ship Huskerdust
I could keep going but I already tore myself to shreds heh heh... Lol XD jk I'm dying here :/ :) :( :) asdfghjkl(I have a therapist)
it for sure says something about myself that whenever i kin two or more guys from the same media there's a 90% chance that they either fight eachother & blow up on eachother or one is literally in control of the other in some way. i'm sure that's normal and doesn't say anything about my brain at all.
We’ve heard of loving like a dog, but what about fighting like a dog?
Having violent thoughts or tendencies despite being afraid of confrontation, although you won’t fight until you’re pushed into a corner. You defend yourself and get punished for it by those who are supposed to protect you, but you only blame yourself instead of those putting the muzzle over your face.
