I’m letting them, yea, but doubles make me super uncomfortable and it’s like,,,I AM him. I am him, not just kin with him, he’s literally me. And other people can’t be me, so

Kintypes are literally a person. You’re basically taking the definition of kintype and pretending it’s something different. Kintypes are literal. If someone is kin of anything, they’re literally that, just not physically. Any other APH Canada fictionkin aren’t you just because of that. It’s okay to set boundaries and express discomfort with doubles, but don’t misconstrue what it means to be kin.

And anon, kin is not “mainly” a coping mechanism at all. I wish people would stop spreading that lie around.

Its extremely agravating to see such a majority of people completely clueless as to what being kin actually is. If its *mainly* anything, its mainly a spiritual belief.
