Ok, so when it comes to my kins, I've figured out some stuff. Also apologies in advance for a VERY rambling post.
Some people like to say "I am ___ " instead of "I am ____ -kin", due to the fact that they feel like they are that thing now, not that they were something in some sort of past life. With this idea in mind, I've sort of figured out how I feel.
I feel like I was a dragon at some point, so I say that I'm dragonkin, not that I am one now because I'm not anymore in this form. I say that I'm vampirekin because I was one once, and though I still get many vampiric tendencies, I don't feel that I am one anymore in this form that I'm in now 100% of the time. Lots of the time I do feel like I'm still a vampire, but not a full blooded one.
HOWEVER...I say that I am CB and that I am some sort of merfolk because I both was CB at some point in my past and still am him now, but I also was some form of merfolk in my past and still am in this human-looking form now.
Honestly, I'm still figuring everything out, but I know these things for sure
