#kinshift switches

[nibbleline]

wait I can do canon calls by myself

hellooooooo everyone I kin Anti-Wanda and currently hoping to find an Anti-Cosmo and Irep out there :) Willing to talk to anyone else from FOP too.

I'm 19 but willing to talk to anyone of any age- EXCEPT Anti-Cosmo, who I'd prefer to also be an adult. It'd just be weird to talk to someone you have romantic memories of when they're a kid :/

(Though, note for any Ireps who are minors: I also kin Peri, while still being 19 (obviously). My Peri does NOT have any romantic memories of Irep, but if you have romantic memories of him while being under 18 I would, again, be uncomfortable with it. Sorry! If it's all platonic we're chill tho)

Uhhhhhh that's all I need to say I think. Hello if you're still reading :D

Reach out via DMs or like this post and I'll reach out to you if you're from FOP and we can talk :] Please do not like this if you don't kin/are a fictive from FOP or it'll be really awkward. Thanksies, byeeee

[faerociousbeast]

This may be controversial, but I do technically kin for fun, specifically fiction kin, but it is very integral to my identity despite that.

I'm a polyfragmented system with like a bagillion introject fragments.

So what that means, is that I am a system (of unintegrated parts) with a low splitting tolerance (i get new dissociated parts in my brain very easily), and every time I interact with a new medium and I feel deeply connected to the characters, I might develop an introject. But those introjects are not fully formed alters, and therefore don't front besides interacting with their purpose or specific medium.

So it's like,, it's really just a game of "is this a kin or is this an introject", I can sometimes tell, but kins are usually like "I have a reason for connecting to this" and introjects are a deeply like "I don't have a super specific reason other than feeling connected to this".

So it's like..... all of us alters decided, y'know what, I don't want an existential crisis every time I try to figure out what's a kin or not, and we decided to all kin for fun, like we were doing before we discovered our system.

So besides otherkin, fiction-kin is its own beast. Where I'm like, "I might as well" when it comes to it. Maybe if I was a singlet I'd take kinning more seriously, but it's impossible to figure out what's a kin and what's not. So most of my introjects are just what we deeply, deeply kinned so much so they became their own part of me. It's russian roulette in my brain.

[multiselves]

Coining Post!! 🔗👥 Multiself / Multiselves !!

Definition ::

Multiself is an umbrella term for any singlet/singlet adjacent being that experiences multiple identities/selves. The term also applies to individual sysmates that share the experience, provided the sysmate/s in question identify as multiself independently from the rest of the collective.

Mulitself beings may or may not "switch" between selves, though multiself is explicitly separate from the plurality spectrum and does not describe multiple consciousnesses/distinct people. However it's important to note that SOME parasian/plurallet experiences may fall under the multiself umbrella

• You can identify as both transplural/transmedian and multiself at the same time, in the same way that you can identify as a both a boy and a girl at the same time. Trans identity is very complex, and often paradoxical in nature

• Generally switches are amnesia free and voluntary, but this is definitely more of a guideline than a hard and fast rule. (I myself have light amnesia, and experience "switches" more as kinshifts rather than a conscious choice.)

• Multiself is inherently tied to transid, in the sense that selves have their own distinct sets of transids. Though notably, the amount in which the selves differentiate depends on the individual. On one end of the spectrum, one's selves may be extremely different in name, appearance, age, race, gender etc. On the other end of the spectrum, one's selves may be entirely identical except for each selves trans/trispersonality ids

Language ::

(Note: this is general language for the umbrella term, and may not be applicable to more specific labels that fall underneath it)

Shift (verb): The experience of changing selves

"I'm shifting into Mallory"

Form (verb): The experience of forming new selves

"I formed Riley yesterday"

Mindset (noun): The term used to describe which self you currently identify as

"I'm in Monty and Jamie's mindset right now"

Primary self (noun): The self you most commonly identify as

"I'm in Darce's mindset most often, they're my primary self"

Selves are not separate consciousnesses, though we/us language is also acceptable if you feel more comfortable using it. If you wish to refer to all your selves at once, but want to avoid being mistaken for a system, you could simply say "my selves", or "my cluster"

Flag colours ::

Those that choose to have multiselves: dark pink

Those that do not choose to have multiselves: light pink

Those that experience their selves as being "alter egos" for the main self: grey

Those that are at their core consciousness, experiencing selves that are all equally them: white

Those that have fluid selves, in any sense: lilac

Those that have static selves: light blue

Distinction from plurality: dark blue

Why was this coined?

This label was a reaction to segreID. At first glance the two terms seem very similar, but there are some key differences such as my far laxer approach to including those that identify with some form of plurality. This label is not meant to act as a recoin, nor is it meant to "out-inclusive" the segreID coiner, vampi-rq.

I wanted to create a less specific term that would include me, and anyone else that shared the majority of my experiences

While there is conflict between me and vampi-rq, I still have a lot of appreciation and respect their term and how it was intended to be used. The multiself label is personal to me, and it was born out of respect for the segreID definition rather than in spite of it. SegreID exists to describe a much more specific experience, and it's one that simply doesn't apply to me, which I'm fine with

All thumbs are fingers, but not all fingers are thumbs

While by definition segreID does happen to fall under the multiself umbrella, that does not mean that 100% of the things described here apply to it. Vampi-rq has been explicit about what is and is not segreID. I encourage you to do your research and pick the appropriate label for what you're experiencing. The multiself label is intentionally very vague and nonspecific

Are you looking for a DSMP Discord server to connect with your fellow systems/kinnies without toxicity and too many harsh rules? If so, I have just the server for you!

Beach Party :) is a safe space for systems, kinnies, and synpaths where they can exchange memories and experiences, as well as discuss DSMP lore, and so much more with no judgement. Whether your fictive/kin is problematic or not, they’re welcome no matter what.

You don’t have to worry about being banned for seemingly no reason and without explanation, because our staff is very lenient, understanding, and always open to communication.

We have PluralKit and Tupperbox for systems and kinnies to keep track of their switches and kinshifts. If you’re looking for canonmates, you can make a canon call on our server, and who knows, perhaps you’ll find the person you’re looking for.

We’re still very new and are willing to adapt to and accomodate our community, so if you have any suggestions, feel free to share them.

If you’re interested, we’ll be glad to have you on our server!

[plegg-culture-is]

plegg culture is “no i’m not plural i just have very intense kinshifts!!!” (those “kinshifts” are actually switches)

[fictionkinfessions]

open question because i’m curious

when in a kinshift, does anyone else hear their thoughts as their kintype’s voice? like your thinking voice switches to the one you’re currently kinshifted as?

x

[yappersparadise]

i don't normally choose to switch between my identities even though i can. it usually feels more like a kinshift for me. it's why i neglect to change identities more frequently [🗝️♟️]

[crown-jay]

Some further clarification on my (suspected) plurality

I just wanted to add onto my recent post about my suspicions about being a part of a median system, both to clarify some things and add on new thoughts I have had.

Alright, we're gonna make this a list because... Why not, I do what I want.

I am not claiming that I am 100% a part of a system. I am simple sharing my experiences and trying to understand them in the process. I am fully aware that it could be something else, and I am willing, in the future, to accept whatever else it may be, if it is in fact the case. (This is the main thing I wanted to say, so it's at the top of the list)

I do not know much about the facets in the system, I am mostly just aware of their (probable) existence. I am endeavouring to learn about them, as I think that it's important to acknowledge their existences, cause, you know, they're people too? (That is, if they're actually there)

I have realised I actually use plural first person pronouns for myself, like, a lot. I even did it in the beginning of this very post and only noticed after writing it. So that's cool, I guess. I think I do it more than I realise.

And, finally. In my original post, I said this: "My 'facets' don't think to me in my head, we don't talk to each other to communicate." But here's the thing... I have an incredibly hard time communicating with them. To the point that, maybe monoconcious is the wrong label? Idk, I think I can still get basic things across to and from them, but it's not any real communication. So yeah, that was maybe a bit of misdirect on my part, apologies.

Back on the topic of facets, I think my Orym fictotype might actually be a fabeling? He just feels... Different? Than, say, my other kintypes. For example, my Doctor fictotype is "literally me"™, I always feel like him on a certain level, even more so when in a shift. But when I have a "shift" of Orym, it feels like almost an additive? But not in the same way as my kintype shifts do. It's really hard to explain, but an Orym "kinshift" feels distinctly different to any other kinshift.

In the original post I said "I haven't switched before" which I don't actually think is true? I think it's happened a few times but I also think I'm probably front stuck (yippee) I'm in no way trying to stay in front, I'm totally open to others switching in and I have tried to switch out but it's just not working 🥲

I think that's it for now. To end off, I just want to say that median systems (and anyone, I guess) are free to both reblog this post and the original one, and also, tell me about your experiences! Send an ask, comment on a (relevant) post. Idk. Just feel free, it'd be super helpful and cool to see.

(Also @median-culture-is , idk if you want to see this or not, but here you go anyway lol)

[emergency-paimon]

Uhm, hello! I'm not sure how you want people to reach out, and, I do admit I'm a wreck of a person but uh! Hi Paimon!! I'm an extremely canon divergent (with way too many crossovers, albeit they mostly don't interact with Tevyat) Lumine kin who, in Tevyat, went by Ying Palesin! I switch between calling it a main kin or main ID, despite kinfirming awhile ago, since I'm not sure which fits better. Super sensitive to having kinshifts into it though which probably messes with that agzjzh-

Aaa hi !! I don't really have similar memories, but you seem rlly cool !! :3

[tavs-kin-korner]

To anyone who happens to be passing by, this kin vent is really graphic.

I'm so sorry for the bother. I'm just going to vent real quick. Please don't feel pressured to respond if you can't, I just really need to let it out.

Before I start, some tws for this are death, gore/blood, guns/shooting, and head related death (decapitation is one of them). There's also a brief mention of cigarettes but it's not important.

First off, I'm a kin of Allen Avadonia from the Evillious Chronicles series.

So I was at a friend's house today. He started to show me Red Dead Redemption 2 and its graphics and how cool the game is. Being a general person who can handle games like Subnautica and the Call of Duty campaign (I've played both), I thought it would be fine. Then, while taking a box of cigarettes in game, he somehow killed two people and became "wanted" in RDR2. However on one of the kills he got a headshot and it (tw it gets brutal here) shot the head clean so all that was left was the rest of the body.

After seeing that, my heart started skipping several beats. Not only is beheaded people a HUGE trigger of mine but it also triggered a negative kinshift.

As Allen, in my media/canon, I, being heavily loyal to my sister, decided to switch places with Riliane (my sister) and got executed in her place. Method of death? The guillotine. So yeah. I uh got beheaded in my canon. And today I saw another guy's head get shot off in game. Great trigger for a kinshift /s

I'm trying to calm down right now but the image is just really clear in my mind and its just urghhhh. I don't know. I'm sorry this vent was pretty graphic in description.

hI, aLLEN! i'M SO SORRY FOR THE LATE RESPONSE!

i'M SO SORRY THAT HAPPENED, tHAT SOUNDS LIKE SUCH AN AWFUL EXPERIENCE, }:( sEEING THINGS THAT REMIND YOU OF TRAUMATIC EVENTS IN YOUR SOURCE ARE ALWAYS AWFUL, i SYMPATHIZE WITH YOU GREATLY,,, i HOPE YOU'RE DOING OK NOW!

mAYBE SOME ADVICE,, nEXT TIME YOU ARE AT THIS FRIEND'S HOUSE, yOU SHOULD ASK NOT TO BE SHOWN THIS GAME AGAIN, tO AVOID ANOTHER NEGATIVE SHIFT, }:)

hOPE THIS HELPS, aND AGAIN, i'M SO SORRY THIS HAPPENED, aND i HOPE YOU'RE FEELING BETTER! sENDING LOTS OF LOVE AND SUPPORT, <3 /P }:)

[abandoned-starry-collective]

i thought you were polyfragmented now your a system of 5 what happened?

We figured out we were wrong about the polyfragmentation, I (host) am fictionkin and mistook my kinshifts for switches, so I thought we had fictives, and due to certain irl situations we believed we had a lot more, when it turns out we're a system of five-six alters. I hope that makes sense ^^''

[thedandelionresistance]

Anyone else sometimes age regress while kinshifting or directly related to a kintype sometimes? Like maybe it's sometimes pet regression too but sometimes it's also like "my kintype is specifically wolf puppy right now" or "ope I was xyz whatever but now I am baby but specifically baby bat".

Could also sometimes be us misidentifying a switch to a headmate with a different type as a kinshift, particularly littles/middles/syskids/ageesliders lol but not always

[whimsivamp]

can any otherkin explain kinshifts and stuff?? cause im not really sure what's the difference between that and like- switching for alters.
