Is fictionkin or otherkin only for systems? A lot of the time, I see people refer to it as something restricted for systems, but I see other people refer to it as both for systems and people who arent in systems
Hi anon.
I think you have the terms “fictive” and “fictionkin” confused.
“Fictive” is a systems only term which refers to any system member that shares an identity with a fictional character.
“Fictionkin” is a term that means anyone who believes they are or were somehow, a fictional character. Often this has to do with belief in multiverse reincarnation, or other spiritual beliefs, but not always.
Fictionkin is used primarily, but not exclusively by non-systems, and has a history as a belief system going back to the early 2000s.
Otherkin, the term from which Fictionkin is derived, is also primarily but not exclusively used by non-systems, and like fictionkin, was not created in plurality spaces.
You can read more about fictionkin at fictionkin.org or fromfiction.tumblr.com
Lot of fancops I’ve seen like to say ‘fuck the police’ and then turn around and act just like them. lol
fancops parroting rules and words as ‘good’, rather than demonstrating actions that are good?
Never!!

Ah yes making people safer by

- Accusing fiction writers of violent crime
- Wishing violence and death on people.
Classic!
Would ships with power imbalances fall under lock/pick ships? Also what if a ship is generally considered healthy and might even be anti-approved but you, the shipper, tend to ship it in a way that makes it a little fucked? (Eg, you headcanon one character as way younger, or you headcanon them as related, or in my preferred way of shipping which is to make one abusive towards the other). Sorry for asking so many questions, I just love the concept of having more expansive vocabulary for various different types of shipping! It can both help others find each other and help people avoid seeing what they’re not comfortable with. This is really great!
I propose scale ship for a ship that you want to signify has a significant power imbalance in some way, but you wouldn’t consider it dubcon/pick ship. Scale of course talking about the balance of the scales being tipped.
How about dimmer ship to signal that you ave made a ship darker than it is normally perceived to be by the fandom. As in using a dimmer on a light switch.
