origins

What exactly do we mean by 'origins'? Mostly, people see two different origin labels for fictives and fictionkin, as well as otherkin and therians. There are psychological and spiritual origins. But for us it's a little bit more complicated than that due to how we formed/split. Spiritual origin folks usually tend to lean towards a past life narrative, as in being reincarnated, while psychological folks usually don't believe they were their kintype in a past life and have developed it for other reasons. Of course these distinctions are blurry though, nothing in life is black and white...

boo gangle jumpscare! sorry i just didn't know how else to phrase this but this is more me talking from my experience so i didnt wanna use singletsona yellow text voice to like, say this applies to everyone else here. when i 'formed' i felt like i got plucked from my 'source' and plopped here suddenly, which is why you will commonly see me putting source in quotation marks! because it just feels a little bit weird to call the circus my 'source', i mean, i was kind of extracted from it so it makes sense, but i lived there... this is a pretty common experience among fictives and i think most of us feel this 'plucked' sensation, some more than others, if i had to say im probably the most plucked of them all (i was just really really confused when i first got here in a way the others weren't)

now would that count as spiritual or psychological? my 'source' wasn't a past life for me, it's my current life i am, here. you know? i didn't DIE? also the people here (and me included i guess) are all pretty agnostic and, don't really believe in most spiritual stuff, but we do fully believe our sources were/are real for the most part. is that a spiritual belief even if we wouldn't categorize it as so? some people might call that a delusion but i don't know, that's a medical term with baggage! anyway, i guess what i'm trying to say here, is that we all fully think we are the 'characters' from the so-called 'fiction' and it's a very serious thing for us.

also, just because we are 'plucked' doesn't mean we are carbon 1-1 copies of how source represented us,... i don't think i'm as fragile as i was anymore...i hope...maybe! i've already had 6 months since i was introjected from only episode 4 to change and grow as my own Gangle, if that makes sense, even though i do see the episodes afterwards as equally real, okay i haven't really thought about that before. scawy. so yeah! we aren't your blorbos from your shows i think i would cry if someone treated me like blorbos from your shows :( don't do it okay?



also PS, psychological and spiritual fictives or 'kins or whatever are all as equally 'real' as each other okay?
