We Are So Ableist About Smell. "oh Youcant Smell ? Yea Youre Probably Just Sick Or Something It'll Pass"

I am once again fucking begging the community to stop writing everything other than identify-as identities out of the word alterhuman and now fictionfolk too

Alterhuman does not mean everyone who identifies as nonhuman on some level (oh and maybe otherhearted people too). Please for the love of all that is good and holy stop saying that. It means anyone whose identity falls outside of society’s idea of “normal human” - anyone with an identity alternative to humanity or that’s an alternative form of humanity. It includes nonhumanity, yes, but also otherheartedness, hearthomes, archetropy, plurality, daemonism, furry lifestylers, othervague folks, constelics, and so much more. Here’s the coiner’s words to prove it.

Fictionfolk does not mean anyone who identifies as a fictional character. It means anyone with an alterhuman connection to fiction of any kind. It includes fictionkin and fictives and such, yes, but also fictional hearthomes, fictionheartedness, soulbonders, fictional vaguetypes, fictional constelics, and much more. Here’s the coiner’s words to prove it.

To collapse these words down to basically be synonymous with otherkin and fictionkin is to utterly defeat their purpose. Please stop defining us out of our own communities. Please stop erasing the existence of everyone outside of “identifies as nonhuman and/or fictional”.

I do believe in my heart that maybe a lot of fictives out there are Soulbounds but are too bombarded by their host that they’re fictives/introjects that they don’t realize their life actually was real and isn’t just a coping mechanism for their host.

Being a system practicing projection and/or imposition is so funny because why is there a reshiram standing over me in the kitchen? Why is Tomura Shigaraki standing ominously in the doorway? Why is there a dragon on my bed?

Kinda nonhuman because mental illness, kinda nonhuman because not being properly socialized as a kid, kinda nonhuman because queer, kinda nonhuman because angry at humanity, kinda nonhuman because longing for the unconditional love of a pet and it’s master, and kinda nonhuman because secret sixth thing.

THIS POST IS INCLUSIVE OF SYSTEMS OF ALL ORIGINS !!! DO NOT BRING SYSCOURSE ONTO THIS POST.

The want and desire of wanting amnesia and dissasociative barriers so everyone can have their own privacy vs the need to monitor what everyone's doing.

You might be a soulbonder if…

You are a writer/roleplayer whose fictional characters “have a will of their own” or “refuse to do what they’re supposed to”

You experience fictional entities sharing your mind/body in a unique way

You have the sense that fictional characters spontaneously or gradually take up residence in your mind as full people.

You feel like you can ‘channel’ fictional characters spirits  the way a medium would channel the spirits of dead people.

You have a fully or partially realized internal space where characters interact in your mind with one another and/or with you

You ‘just know’ things about certain characters even though they were never stated in their source material, whether you are the author or not. (character’s exact height, favorite ice cream, etc)

Someone in fiction, or in real life, addresses a certain character and a reply just automatically comes out of your mouth.

You get into whole conversations with people ‘as’ a fictional character without meaning to

You experience periods of being a fictional character/a fictional character inhabiting your body (shifts/fronting)

You pose a question mentally to a character and they answer back.

You ‘sense’ the presence of a certain character in your mind mentally/emotionally

You sense that a character has a certain emotion for you/or wants something from/for you

You feel an emotional connection/friendship with a character that feels returned

If any of these sound like experiences you’ve had, you might be a soulbonder!

People with psychotic disorders are neurodivergent too.

People with personality disorders are neurodivergent too.

People with substance abuse disorders are neurodivergent too.

People with tic disorders are neurodivergent too.

People with bipolar disorder are neurodivergent too.

People with dissociative disorders are neurodivergent too.

Neurodivergence isn’t just ADHD, autism, anxiety, and depression. (Plus those last two also get left out sometimes!) Neurodivergence is anything that affects your brain.

“Neurodivergent people hate loud noises” is actually just as valid as a statement as “neurodivergent people have delusions,” “neurodivergent people have tics,” or even “neurodivergent people have low empathy.”
