How I fel wen ou frens say endos r fakin. :(

Learned a little while ago that more systems that we thought don’t switch with headmates fully taking control or constantly talking, but that it can feel a lot like kin shifts and just changing how you think/behave and I wish this was talked about more because it explains a lot about how my system works

ABSOLUTELY NO SYSCOURSE
I feel like the line between kins and alters in some plurals needs to be studied. It can vary and get confusing to know which is which. I feel like beings with a lot of kins or alterhuman identities should be able to consider themselves plurals just because of that, especially with kinshifts. Honestly anyone can be plural I just find that part fascinating.
"Kinself" - Alterhuman Coining
[ "Kinself - Alterhuman Coining ]
Read here for a glossary of Otherkin information and terms.
In kin systems and/or kingenic plurality, the line can get blurry between what is a kintype, kin shift, and what is a system member. Kinform is a word currently used to describe an introject of a kintype. However, the separation isn't always so distinct during kin shifts.
"Kinself" is a word to bridge that gap. This is a term for any otherkin/etc shift that is intense enough for there to be a feeling of identity separation from ones' unshifted self. It may happen once or may be reoccurring, but the most important differentiating factor is that they're ephemeral in nature. While a kinform (median facet or not) is a consistently solid & recognizable system member, a kinself will experience temporary separation during the duration of their experience. This separation may waver, be consistent, or anything else, but is always temporary in one manner or another. As the kin shift fades, so does the kinself, returning back to the otherkin person in a manner similar to integration, fusion, and other similar experiences. This experience could be one-time per kintype, or reoccurring.
Could be considered an opposite of temporary fusion.
Kinselves fall under the median/midcontinuum umbrella. There is a chance a kinself could solidify further and become a kinform headmate.
Whether people choose to consider kinselves as part of their member headcount is up to the individual(s).
weird alterhuman culture is being the long quiet from slay the princess and wondering if this means im a system now?? because im a system in canon. well its next to canon that im a system. i literally gain new identities in my brain as i experience trauma. huh. also being the size of the universe and yet so small is so. woaugh. -🐦⬛🗡️
I wonder if there's a term for that! maybe a subsection of kingenic, a system that identifies that way because they kin a canonical system? if not you should coin something! feels only natural that this sort of thing would come about as canon system rep starts to occur more and more
Hi, how are you? Well, I have a huge doubt here because I'm having a complicated feeling.
I'll give some context: I am a plural system (obviously) and a fictokin, we have collective kins and individual kins.
And this complicated feeling is: every time we identify with a new kin, it gives a feeling of having a new headmate, but at the same time I know it's just a new kin, as if our kins are us individually but each kin is an alternative version of ourselves.
Like, we have a headmate that has a median subsystem formed by the highest kins of them.
And this also applies to kins that aren't fictokins.
So, does this count as addgenic or catharigenic?
Hello! We're good, thanks for asking!!
That's a difficult question to answer, especially considering how much nuance there is to all of this. I think kingenic might be a term worth looking into for your situation.
Addgenic and catharigenic aren't mutually exclusive terms, so they could both fit how your system works!! What you're describing doesn't sound like it has too much to do with addgenic, since the definition for that is a desire to get the biggest headcount you can, but if that label also fits, that's amazing!
In the end, catharigenic or kingenic seems like they would fit your description the best. ^^
Thanks for the question!!
