Universe

Hello! I'm Hazel, 24 (he/they). For awhile I identified with xenomorphs / aliens, but lately it's evolved into a much more complicated identity that I'd like to explore further. I'm autistic and struggle with a lot of self shaming, which I'm hoping that connecting with this side of myself will help boost my own self confidence. I'm still getting used to talking (typing) about my identity, but it's a mixture of psychological and physical (?), and was most likely brought on by my autism + physical ailments that left me feeling disconnected from humans. 

I saw a post with the prompt thing, so I wanted to try it, too. My first prompt is:

I don't know how this works. I'm trying to connect with people like me and make friends. If y'all got any ideas for me to find my people, I'd like to hear them.

Does anyone remember "grilling"? It seemed to be popular in my Amino days back in 2019, but I haven't found any resources as of recently to use to grill myself with new 'types I am questioning... If anyone is familiar with the concept, could you leave some of those questions for me to read over and think about? 

If it is called something different now (or even previously), could you let me know what as well? So I can dig up more questions to sit on.. 

Beliefs in Fae span across the world and come with a range of origin explanations--nature spirits, fallen angels, human souls after death, diminished gods, etc. Does any particular one apply to you? 

hangs my feet over the edge of the void and glares down with unease as I try to comprehend how this site works

Howdy! 
I am Krin (he/him/his). I am 20 yrs old and have been awakened / in the therian community since late 2019. I have had my ups and downs in discovering myself since I first joined, but it has been a marvelous time getting to know who I am in my roots.

I am currently in my second year university, studying electrical engineering as a transfer student from preforming arts. I have been a cellist for over 9 years. and an artist for over 10. 

I am alternative, neurodivergent, and queer. I love to participate in up-cycling and alt fashion.. though I usually opt for comfort. I am covered in tattoos and piercings. All of which I love. 

I am an animal nerd at heart and am passionate about keeping the world clean and safe for ALL, not just humans.

My two identities are woolly mammoth and diamondback rattlesnake. I have a feeling I have at least one other theriotype but have yet to give myself time to explore or question it. 

I moved here from instagram at a hope of a different pace and to meet new alter humans. I needed a more relaxed blogging site as instagram felt too cluttered and popularity based rather than individual experiences and just enjoying the community we have. 

I am looking forward to meeting people! feel 

Achedunoi. It's a word that I've been carrying with me for years. It's one of the few words from my own world, my own language, that have survived the translation of my experience through Jarin's consciousness. It's also a word that is very special to me.

Achedunoi. In it's simplest form, it is a greeting to one who has been loved and missed, upon their returning. But it's not something that you would use to greet your partner with at the end of a workday. It is used for partings which have weight to them. That last decades, centuries, even lifetimes.  Partings that leave a wound behind.

Achedunoi. I have found the part of myself that has been missing, and I am made whole again.

I live on a world called Yyl'Nector. Not in the past, not in another life. I am there right now. I can see the sun there, taste the breeze, feel the grass under my feet. My home is there, my family is there, my friends are there.

Is the character you identify as the same entity as the character in the source material, or a version, an echo, or something related but distinct?

you are awesome and appreciated :) u deserve to have a good day :)

First time trying out the writing prompt feature, and realizing I may need to add a button to automatically quote it in the post text.  The one I selected today was: 

im cyber, im just saying hi with this post !! :D im an angel :D 

Who I am is actually of little concern here. Know me personally, and know who I am.

I created this group because I noticed there was not a dedicated space for archetropers yet. I hate to see an empty space, so I am going to fill it with a bit of information on what it means for me to be a minotaur archetype. 

Reaching out of my swampy waters to wave hello! I am glad to be here! I am testing out how posting works and the like. 

The group description says to be sure to read the rules, maybe i'm just missing something but i can't find them. :p

This song was based on original lyrics, written by me in April 2011: https://www.otherkin.net/posts/whats-changed/

This version was performed acapella by me, to the melody that I originally imagined when writing it.  Yes, that's my actual voice, and sorry for the background noise of the air conditioner and the mechanical keyboard. 

I don't love this version, I prefer the previously posted version set to music and performed by an AI, Suno.  However, I will admit that part of my reaction there is feeling something along the lines of dysphoria when I hear my own voice recorded.  I have a fairly decent singing voice, but I much prefer to share it in live in-person contexts.  Bardic circle around a campfire, for example.  Maybe sometime I'll see you there.
