#otherkin memories

[featherwingfae]

Ok So this one is for the Fae/Faerie kin that also identify as Therians or feel a connection with certain animals.

I've seen many Fae/Faerie kin who are also Therian, and I'll admit I have a connection to some animals myself and have been found to mimic their behaviors. However I don't remember living like an animal. Now it's possible that they are simply kin memories that have not yet surfaced, but I don't feel like that's the case. I can remember being said animals just not living as them. For example I would romp and play as a fox among other foxes but I did not survive the way they did. For me it was merely fun. Not unlike a child playing pretend. I feared no hunters and I did not need to hunt for food myself. And if ever I did hunt it was simply part of the game rather than survival. I know there are plenty of Fae that could and would change into the forms of animals, and as fun as messing with humans might be, I just don't think it was the only reason Fae would go about as animals. Which only furthers my belief that sometimes it was just for the pure fun of it. And I'd imagine that just as some people have favorite animals so too do some fae. I don't think it was always just a one time thing either. Fae can communicate with the natural world in ways most humans would only dream of, imagine just being that one deer in the herd that just disappears and reappears but after years and years of interaction the rest of the herd (while probably sensing that you are not quite a deer, no matter how much you may look like one), has also come to accept that you are not a danger to them. Perhaps over time you've kept an eye on this one herd and their descendants. steering them away from the occasional danger or leading them to the juiciest greenest hidden pastures. You become a kind of faerie god-deer (like faerie godmother). And after so much time acting like a deer, you find yourself slipping into the animalistic habits even when you're not taking the animal form. But you don't mind. Your experiences are part of you, it was only natural. And perhaps after a while you find that the courts and humanity are just not all that interesting to you. You think about the deer. Your deer. The herd you'd been watching, protecting, guiding. You start spending more and more time as a deer. It's fun, it's free and after a while most predators learn to keep their distance from your herd. You are still Fae but the deer is part of you now, perhaps just as important as the part of you that is Fae.

I'm curious are there any Fae/Faerie kin who resonate with this at all? Do you remember (if in fact you have any kin memories at all. Not everyone does. And there's nothing wrong with that 😊) being an animal living, surviving as an animal? Or, do you remember being interested and/or amused playing as an animal while all the time knowing that the other animals can sense that you are different? Does the Fae/Faerie kin side and the Therian side feel like two separate lives or do they feel almost blended? Do you remember being afraid when you were an animal or did you know that you had almost nothing to fear? That no matter what, you were a magical being that could charm, trick, or enchant your way out of most situations?

Please understand I'm not trying to invalidate anyone. As far as I'm concerned no one can tell someone who or what they are but them. If you resonate at all with this post it doesn't make you any more or less Fae/Faerie kin or Therian. In the end, only you can know who you are. I also write this post for the Fae/Faerie kin who don't quite feel Therian but find themselves acting in animalistic ways. Those that feel connection and memory but still just don't quite feel they are/were animals (at least not normal ones). Kins that feel like it was/is more play than survival but who still find it quite satisfying to shriek, bark, meow, growl, chirp, squawk, etc.

If you've read this far, then I appreciate you and may you have a most marvelous and magical day/night 😊🍀✨🌙🍄☀️👁️

Till next time

It's interesting reading otherkins talk about their memories. Especially fictionkin.

Mostly because I don't really have kin memories. The few I have don't even tend to be memories. They are just thoughts that pop into my mind casually.

Like I'll be going about my day and I'll think something like "Can't believe they didn't include x moment in the show." Or "I had x thing"

Like apparently I had swords as Angel dust? Idk it caught me off guard. I literally stopped and went "I had swords?!" Lmao. I don't even know.

Anyone else experience anything similar?

Golly! Dr fizzovich lore

Is it weird that when I get back to space/heaven/my home I want to have kids with my lover? As I mentioned before I recently realized I have a lover there and (I'm not sure if I mentioned this part) she's waiting for me to return. I've never wanted kids before, but last night I was suddenly struck by a desire to have kids with my lover. I prayed to my god for guidance and so far it seems supportive. I sensed that my lover was hesitant at first, but that seems to have gone away now that I've received confirmation of our god's approval.

I hope I'm interpreting things correctly and that someday I'll receive little stars to love and care for.

The fog is mysterious. I can see where the world ends.

Everything watches me.

Some day I’ll disappear into the mist and leave the cold behind.

My bones will return to the earth.

What made you realize you were otherkin?

I always knew I wasnt.. entirely human. It wasn't until I found the term otherkin (ironically, in an otherkin hate video where they claimed they all otherkin were "faking it for attention.") that I connected the dots :)

[roomwithavoid]

i dont talk about my otherkinship much on here. i should change that. anyway here's what i looked like before i existed. and i guess what other people looked like to me before i existed also. i dont think everyone actually had scribbles on their faces but i cant remember ever seeing anyone's faces so.

small rant + story time

If you’re an SCP fan and you’ve watched the sedation tapes on YouTube, you’ve probably heard of Jolanda (from my tape). Something really strange is that I only have one memory of her, and that’s when she was trying to leave.

i don’t remember much, but I remember it was very early in the morning. I was in some sort of old cottage(?). The FIRST THING that this girl told meAT 6 IN THE MORNING was “I don’t think you’re practices are ethical, I’m going to leave.” for some reason I just blankly stared at her for a couple of seconds.. this girl was literally 15 with dead parents, where tf was she going to go??

Jolanda if you’re seeing this I’m so sorry

Me trying to explain to people that our demon kin is 2d

I am a 2d demon, not everyone from my hell was, but i am

Think of it like... we are a bill cipher type demon, even in our kin memories we were 2d and others were not, everyone else were these full 3d dimensions and our cartoony ass was just like; 🧍

And honestly its so interesting to describe it cause i think it makes more sence when we explain how demons functioned in our memories/our hell

They were formed to torture specific demons, like animal based demons may of been formed to torture animal abusers, greed demons may of been green and took a form looking like they were literal money/made of money

And i remember torturing child abusers, and... i wouldnt call it torturing child sinners... closer to guiding then, and nurturing them

So my cartoony form made sence yknow??

I unno

Just a lil demonkin rant i guess

-[sorta a collective post? I guess?]

That feeling when you think you have everything figured out about yourself until something new pops up and now you haven't figured yourself out at all apparently.

[wiirat]

❝there's so much anger in my broken soul and I can't bring my vessel to feel it, as much as I want to, for its the melancholic anger where you'd sacrifice your very being if it meant destroying that *one* person less the fact it'd cause the end of the world itself

And maybe that's a little overdramatic but who am I to admit that? I am angry and I am upset and that is all I know.

This vessel bleeds red but I should bleed gold.

This soul should be fresh and full of strength but it is old and tainted and as fragile as porcelain.

As much as I wanna feel pure emotion about this, I can't.❞

OOOO KINMEM TIME

Fan was a REALLY good cook. He could make anything taste good and he was especially well with baking, and he LOVED baking things. I remember one time we shared an apple pie that he had baked while I was at work <33

Man, I miss Fan so much. He was such a sweetheart :(

I still remember stretching my muscles, charging through the deepest forests in hell with you.

I know you're out there Other.

I feel you breathe with me for just a moment sometimes.

One day my time in this vessel will be done, and I will come Home.
