Saw someone mention doing this ages ago and I wrote up my own for fun, but then forgot about it. So, here, uhhhh have this

sidenote: i refer to the faun 'type in the plural rather than singular ("my fauns").
would you call a singular tree a forest? of course not. likewise, you'd never see a lone faun.
it's hard to describe the consciousness of the fauns. it's alien to a human mind.
do you know about aspen trees? most of them grow in clonal colonies, meaning that all the individual trees come from the same roots. that's the closest comparison i can think of to the fauns.
all this to say, it feels incorrect to refer to my faun 'type in the singular. it's just not how my fauns work.
talking about my fictionkintype these days is... well, "difficult" isn't the right word for it, but i'm blanking on a better one.
the fandom aspect is the biggest part. this isn't fandom for me - it's a part of my identity, and i don't want people outside the alt-h community getting misled or twisting it into a roleplay thing. it's difficult to talk about a fictionkintype if you're censoring every other word and name to avoid the fandom.
but also...
that life isn't a happy one. many of the noemata i have for it are of being afraid, sad, or lost. it ends young. it's a tragedy retold as a heroic adventure.
there's a part of me that says i should just move on. this 'type is a part of me, of course, but not a part i need to dwell on.
maybe it's better this way.
