Kin Stuff - Blog Posts
do you ever just sit there and have a random epiphany about HOW much like your source you are?
it's only getting crazier and crazier by the year :')
this right here is describing me in the fullest and that makes me realize why I personally kin her. My friend group literally call me Mom willing because I have such a caring nature when in reality… caring for people is a coping mechanism! Is that the best thing for me and my self love NO! But it’s so funny how it took me a good 5 years to realize what I was doing and another 3 years for me to attempt to even stop the cycle (fail miserably a good amount of time while trying to heal)
But over time I’ve learned that trauma can be lessons learned and/or be handle in a better way than just giving all your power away ya know
…thank you for coming to my ted talk
(regarding the momatha ask)
GIVE US THE UNFUN EMOTIONAL ONE ANSWER PLEASE 🙏🙏🙏 WE NEED IT
Wow that was fast. I mean like 20 of yall asked for it immediately. Congrats, you're the one I grabbed to answer it (but you're all winners in my eyes).
Ok you asked for it, my very long, actually serious, unfun answer.
Would ragatha be a good mom?
Unfun Answer: It's easy to confuse people pleasing/care taking trauma as 'good parent' material. But that isn't always the case and by default I don't think those qualities alone would make Ragatha or anyone a good parent. I think what actually makes someone a great parent is the ability to recognize their trauma and actively work to process and heal through it so they don't replicate their traumas with the people around them.
Everyone has emotional baggage and trauma in some form. And kids will eventually trigger you. They won't mean to, but they will. When that happens, you need the tools to give them empathy and understanding and structure, even through whatever you're dealing with at the time. Not just during the fun moments but during the times when they do unintentionally hurtful things too.
That's hard to do, and for a lot of people, they end up having kids before they even realize they have these unresolved traumas. To be clear, I don't think that makes them inherently bad parents in that case, it just makes being a parent that much more complicated when it's already one of the most difficult things a person can do.
There are a lot of parents out there who became parents because they thought it's what they were 'supposed' to do. And if they never learned how to set boundaries for themselves, or communicate their needs or wants, to hold space for themselves as a separate person not defined by what they do for others, they often unintentionally pass those habits off onto their kids. The cycle continues.
I know some truly incredible parents who come from trauma and have worked through it and the perspective it's given them is invaluable. But it's a choice. It's hard work. And it can only start when and if someone even recognizes there's something there to process to begin with.
All that is to say, I think we as humans all have the capacity to do that work. I think Ragatha as a character has the capacity to be a good parent. But I also think there is hard work involved, and it depends on if someone makes the choice to do that work. Or, to be stuck in their cycles.

Hello fellow kins!!!
I'm curious as to what ur forms look like, and if you'd let me, I wanna try drawing some of yall!!
My asks are open if u wanna describe ur form!
(If u have no form that's valid too!!!)
Since my childhood I feel non-human, like a step next to humanity. I was aware about that feeling but I didn't know that a all community existed. I only discovered my alterhumanity (and the community) like 3 years ago, in 2022 and I accepted it the next year.
Hello alienkins , robotkins, monsterkins, vocaloidkins and otherkins in general!! How are you all?
Back with the questions!
One thing I've been curious about is, how long have you guys been aware that you're an otherkin? Like since you were a kid or did you only find out when you got older?
I don't really remember how long I've known I'm an otherkin, but I think it's been at least 4 years, I'm not sure!
And ummmm I realized it's past midnight here so fibromyalgia awareness month starts today👀 kinda cool ngl
a fellow chronically ill angel… i hope you have had a lovely day
Sending u warmth and love <33 we've got to have each other's backs !!

"Odd" things I get species dysphoria from (that you truly could never judge unless you're experiencing them) as an angelkin
- Hunger. It's one of those feelings that simply aren't supposed to belong to me, because I know for sure that back home, we just... didn't eat, you know?? I do not try to suppress it, & it doesn't give me a bad relationship with food; I love food, actually. But sometimes it feels a bit demoralizing.
- Sunburns - even the slightest, least noticeable ones. I'm a radiant being who embodies light.. yet the sunlight is burning me? Hello??
- Having to Google things or learn about them at school. It's not about learning how to cook, how to bake or tie my shoes, because those are human things; but not knowing everything about the stars, the universe and its past and future? It feels so wrong, because my gods have worked really hard to create me and teach me things. I like to imagine that all I learn about science or history or philosophy is just a memory being "brought back" to me.
- Tight clothing. I don't wear most tight things because of their textures which give me BAD sensory issues (I'm autistic), but I also avoid them because they take away the sense of freedom which was already taken away from me.
- Not being able to soothe people when they're upset when I'm the definition of love and harmony. It's technically the reason why I was sent to earth; so that makes me feel useless, like I'm betraying myself.
- The sound of my voice. It used to be much more beautiful, and the fact that I'm bad at singing doesn't help. It's only a reminder of the fact that this body simply isn't mine.
𖦹ׂ ₊ 🪽 and that's all! I just wanted to share these to show that species dyslhoria isn't always dramatically tragic - sometimes it's a bunch of mundane, unexpected, subtle things that add up to the feeling of discomfort and sadness. What can feel irrational and "exaggerated" is actually very valid and deserves to be taken seriously when it's really upsetting you.
how do you know you’re angelkin, i mean before I didn’t acknowledge kin but I definitely saw myself as something more divine but I didn’t acknowledged because I was scared to be wrong, too cocky or just plain disrespectful then one day I saw someone talking about being a demonkin and looked up realizing angelkin existed too!
Do I just label myself as one now? Could I be your 🐏🕊️anon? Too (*´v｀)
I hope this wasnt sent too long ago, i dunno if my asks are working properly but YES YOU CAN BE MY ANON 🫶🏻 you can skip the parts of this that you think aren't useful to you, I just tend to use too many words when explaining myself 😭 and this is a topic that's very dear to me, especially the part about feeling like your identity's disrespectful.
Anyways - I think I found out in the cliché way, if you can call it that. Feeling like I wasn't human (ever since I was a kid), feeling like I was supposed to fly and getting frustrated that I couldn't. Also getting very mad at myself for being scared of heights, because it simply felt wrong.
How I found out:
I used to identify as a winged therian (i went from a butterfly to a dove and more), because my first shifts mainly consisted of vague phantom wings and a weird feeling that my body was lighter and floating. The thing is, I became aware of my divinity when I almost vividly remembered the gods I served. It felt like they were calling out to me because I was ready to awaken, and I did not reject their signs, because I always knew deep down that I was protected by higher beings - and that, even when I thought I was an animal, it always felt mystical and holy. An immortal owl, a butterfly who could fly a little too high for it to be realistic, a dove meant to spread peace and protect creatures. Do you see what I mean?
-> This is definitely very personal. I also understand that it can be of little help to questioning angels who don't worship any gods; however, as some in the community have said, you ARE a certain creature as long as you can say, for sure, that you identify as it. If you can look at yourself in the mirror and say you're an angel, that's enough. You dont have to rush to discover all the details about your memories, your past or your home.
About not acknowledging a kintype because it feels morally wrong:
Yeah, it took me a while to get rid of that mindset. But personally, for me, the problem was the religious settings in which I grew up in; they weren't strict, but even so, the way I had to approach Christianity wasn't healthy. So even if I strayed from it with little guilt, it made me feel like I wasn't allowed to have beliefs of my own. I felt a connection with gods that nobody around me worshipped, gods that had their own rules, their own followers and servants; I realized no one could tell me that my beliefs were wrong. They were not, because only I knew how they worked, and I wasn't going to give them up. You, too, are allowed to label yourself as an angel according to your beliefs and definitions of an angel. Things have changed; some modern sources view angels as spiritual guides and beings of all kind, not just servants of a god.
And if you're worried about being "cocky"... well. That basically implies that you're worried about how others might perceive you, but you know that your identity isn't about claiming superiority, right? If you know you don't want to appear cocky, it's clear that you don't mean to be. You can't control how people interpret your intentions, but you shouldn't let that keep you from accepting yourself as you are.
Being angelkin can be controversial. But that's because some people are close-minded, and that's not our fault.
Hi *flaps wings* *wraps wings around you* *pats your head with wings* *folds wings over face*
Maybe I have chronic pain because I'm meant to fly, not walk or use my muscles too much 🧐🧐 think about it. I'm a being of light and I'm literally supposed to float. What if this body is just too heavy
Here's a reminder that your kin experience may not be the same as that of other people or the majority of our communities. Do not put yourself in a mold. Embrace yourself and how you truly are. How you feel is how you feel. Do not base your sense of self on people you don't know. I have been struggling with self-doubt about recently discovered kintypes (dandy's world kintypes). I convinced myself for a second that I was somehow lying to myself about my connections and that I was just being silly. And I still feel like that. But it is harmful to ignore it in order to feel "valid" in the eyes of everyone. How I feel is how I am. And I am learning to accept that.
Do not be your own enemy. Be your biggest supporter
Been thinking about my life as Zuki a lot lately, so I'm gonna share some more shit about it. This is gonna be a long ass post, lol.
Class 1A was really close in my canon. We were a family [I would use the word pack]. There were 21 of us originally (everyone from the "actual" canon minus Mınət@ who didn't exist as far as I know, lol, and me and one other noncanon 'character' who's name is Hikari Kubo-Mori).
More stuff about how I got along with some other Class 1A students below
A bit after the dorms became a thing, Hitoshi Shinso joined our class. Now, I was always a bit of a 'nerd' when it came to quirks, lol. [Me and Izuku loved to analyze quirks together cause it's very interesting and just awesome to know more about quirks, lol.]
Anyway, I was very into quirk analysis, and Hitoshi's quirk was something that was very interesting and didn't really scare me (guess it comes with having a quirk that scared others and shit). So Hitoshi and I became friends pretty quick after they joined Class 1A cause I was also way more 'into' making friends at that point, lol. [I was also a part of the "I didn't come to make friends" club at first, lol]. Then, a bit later, I got adopted by Aizawa and Present Mic, who had adopted Hitoshi before me, so we became siblings.
I don't know why exactly I brought up Hitoshi first, besides the fact that he's my brother. But I'm gonna be moving on to others now.
Bakugo Katsuki, Izuku Midoriya, and I were all childhood friends. We were actually pretty close before Bakugo got his quirk, I got mine, and Izuku didn't get a quirk. [I'm not really going to go into the whole thing. Just know that for a while, none of us were really friends].
I re-became friends with Izuku at the end of our last middle school year (reminder that in my canon UA was a college type thing). Shit had happened before that made me realize shit. [I was never a bully, but I also never stood up for Izuku like I should've, I had my "reasons," but idc they were kinda dumb and shit but I was a dumb pup at the time].
A bit after the dorms happened, Bakugo found me on the roof of the dorms [don't go there, I liked it cause it was quiet and I could feel the wind on my wings and shit] and asked me a few questions that kinda suprised me at first. The main thing was asking about how it's like with a service dog, how to get over the feeling of not being good enough cause of needing a dog to help, how to deal with others when it comes to service dogs, and stuff like that. Turns out that in a session with Hound Dog, a service dog was suggested to Bakugo because of the training camp and everything. I told him the truth that I still had difficulty with all of the things that having a service dog brings/causes but that I loved Remo so much and was greatful to him. Me and Kats became friends again after that (I called him Kats because when I was younger [and could speak, so I was at least 7], I had trouble with his name so I called him Kats instead).
If you notice, I use both Bakugo and Kats for him, and that's cause I did then as well, lol.
Me and the rest of the Dekusquad that I haven't mentioned already [who I have mentioned already is just Izuku and Hitoshi].
The Dekusquad was mainly known to be: me, Midoriya Izuku/Deku, Uraraka Ochako, Iida Tenya, Todoroki Shouto, Asui Tsuyu/Tsu, Kubo-Mori Hikari, and Shinso Hitoshi [last names then first names]. Though we also had Yaoyorozu Momo, Tokoyami Fumikage, and Aoyama Yuga.
Some people I use last names more and some I use first names more. It's mainly based on how close I was to them specifically and which is easier for me. Like with Momo, it's easier with her first name than her last name, lol. But it's easier for me to use Tokoyami rather than their first name.
Now, with the Bakusquad, lol.
The Bakusquad was: Bakugo Katsuki, Kirishima Eijirou, Kaminari Denki, Sero Hanta, Ashido Mina, and Jirou Kyouka.
I already talked about Kats. So, with the rest of the Bakusquad, I was pretty close with all of them. I was not as close to Sero, not for any reason, I just didn't hang with him a lot.
Despite being close to Jirou, I tend to use her last name cause it's easier for me, lol. Same with Kiri.
Mina and Denki were the first of the Bakusquad to give me permission to use their first names, which is what I mainly use for them.
It terms of the overall class [not including Izuku and Bakugo ofc], the first one to give permission for their first name/a nickname to be used to me was actually Hikari, the second is ofc Tsu.
There are definitely people I didn't mention here. It's not cause of any reason, I've just already gone on for a while, so this is it for this post for now. I'll probably reblog if I want to add anything later, lol.

Fun facts for dollkins/therians! :DDDDD
Dolls date back thousands of years. Some of the oldest known dolls were found in ancient Egyptian tombs, crafted from materials like clay, wood, and stone :0 Dolls are often used in rituals, ceremonies, and as symbols of protection or fertility! Over time, dolls have been made from a wide range of materials, including porcelain, wax, cloth, plastic, and even papier-mâché! Doll collecting is a popular hobby worldwide. Collectors often seek rare or vintage dolls, and there are specialized markets and conventions for doll enthusiasts! Many artists use dolls as a medium for artistic expression :] Throughout history, dolls have been associated with superstitions and beliefs. For example, in some cultures, dolls were believed to possess spirits or bring good luck, while in others, they were seen as omens of misfortune if mistreated :[
Here's a few strange habits of mine that i think/have been told are c!dream reminiscent; feel free to include any in ur own head canons if you feel they fit ; v ;
Climbing trees!
Pesifically as high as i can get without the branches giving up on me, i used to do it just to prove i could catch myself when i was younger. Now i just like to sit in the tree tops, it makes me feel powerful for whatever reason. (was raised by cats so that might explain, same with perching on high surfaces in general)
Sleeping in odd places!
Like i physically can't fall asleep unless i am wedged between at lest two things. Always in small or hard to get to places, bonus points if i can camouflage myself. (Master of hide and go seek, i have won several times by straight up passing out in a physically implausible place)
Laying under bushes..
Strangest way i comfort myself is by finding a dark corner of the yard and just chilling in the moss. I call it corpse time, sounds mental but pretending like I'm rotting in the woods makes me feel useful somehow. (Got over my fear of bugs by doing this often when i was a kid)
Keeping a physical book on people...
(They know i do this and are okay w it btw)
Memory issues kick my ass but one way i circumvent this is by having a little notebook where i basically have a character page on all of my friends. I do this so i don't end up with a twisted perception of my favorite people, also to note down all the things they like because my love language is presenting offerings. (Started doing this after gaslighting myself one too many times, i note things down pretty clinically so i can assess people by their actions)
Oh man, I didn't expect my post to get any attention at all, so it's nice to hear sourcemates agree with me and my little frustrations! In any case, I better get back to slicing meat and cheese ;9! Hope you're doin' good Kamina! I appreciate hearing from a sourcemate on a long day like this!
Ofc, Yoko!
Hell, we've had a long day, too, so seein' sourcemates always makes our day better! I hope you enjoyed your meat 'n cheese and a good sleep after a long ass day!
Keep truckin' like I know you do!! But, y'know, know that I hope ya the best!
