I Remember There Was Still Wallpaper In One Of The Rooms

idk much about otherkin, but otherhearted is like a connection and sense of belonging with the hearttype

idk if there are any comprehensive sources that are up to date :1

Hello. Dragon with a quick question. Can someone explain the difference between otherkin and otherhearted? Also, are there any sources that define different terms for alterhumanity? Because I feel like I've come across a few that I might be forgetting.

Alterhuman coining: Othermarrowed 🦴

[pt] Alter human coining: Other marrowed [/pt]

🞜 Definition 🞜

[pt] Definition [/pt]

Othermarrowed is a term for those who are in-between being otherhearted and otherkin in some way.

Possible reasons for this include:

Having had a past life as a certain creature/being, but not fully identifying as such in this life.

Rejecting humanity to the point that one feels more like their hearttype than a human.

Experiencing frequent or highly notable phantom limbs or other shifts surrounding one's hearttype.

Becoming so connected with one's hearttype that the lines between identifying with and identifying as feel blurred.

Not fully understanding the difference between otherhearted and otherkin, making one feel unaligned with either label.

And more!

I've seen this idea talked about a few times, but I couldn't find any actual term or coining anywhere. So apologies if this exists already!

Cambikin is a similar term; however, one who is othermarrowed is typically not shifting between being otherkin and otherhearted, but are instead typically stagnant or only somewhat fluid between the two. (Those with a fluid sense of identity may still use othermarrowed, of course!)

I went with a bone theme to kind of play off of the "it's in my bones" and similar sayings. "Marrowtype" would be the othermarrowed equivalent to "kintype / hearttype."

🞜 Symbol & Flag 🞜

[pt] Symbol and flag [/pt]

A rhombus shape was chosen for the symbol as it is somewhat in-between the shape of a heart and a star. The two lines inside represent both otherheartedness and otherkinity, and are also meant to look like bone marrow inside a bone. And the wavy line is meant to look like a bone, as well as represent the spectrum of identities.

Also made a flag. The stripes don't really have any special meanings, just chose cream cuz bone color and then colors I thought would look nice.

buhh i want to help you out but im going through some label trouble myself rn </3 i guess if he feels like more than a fictional person to you and someone you could see yourself as .. shrug... sorry gang

Okay since I’m not panicking and I just need genuine feedback and general help after researching, I’m gonna explain how I feel about Brian and more so how it’s effected me, and I need you kind ppls to tell me if this still counts as Otherhearted (or some secret third option I have yet to come across)!! Since I am very new to all this and I don’t wanna come across as baiting

Extremely (probably badly) worded yap session ahead‼️+ Dexter S1 spoilers

When I first watched Dexter S1, I found Brian someone I could relate to, which then my mom found weird (I suggest looking at his wiki) so then I just admired in peace. His persona and ability to turn on a facade just felt too similar to things I’ve done or see in myself

I have a brother myself, but he’s older than me; however, I still feel as if Brian & Dexters dynamic and Brian’s search for his brother feels all too familiar. My brothers in College so I don’t get to see him often which makes me constantly feel alone and looking for something that will take ages to find. Just like Brian did with Dexter, after coming out of the mental hospital and immediately searching for his brother.

This whole thing makes me panicky because Brian is a (FICTIONAL 😰) serial killer…and I personally can justify majority of his actions just because I feel like if do the same in the same desperation, as fucked as that sounds. Which is why I hate admitting I feel connected to him. I don’t have murderous intentions or thoughts (that aren’t the intrusive kind I mean) but I feel like it’s just a rational thought process.

He DOES die but I just actively forget he does and I don’t like thinking about it

If I need to elaborate on any of this I totally can!Thank you for coming to my ted talk <3

To whomever it may be relevant;

You are a delightful horror beyond comprehension. Spread your wings, grant forbidden knowledge with your gaze, and allow your hymn to soothe and frighten.

From a lady of delusion, to a beautiful horror such as you, you are not of my domain nor are you my acolyte; regardless of what you are told by another or by yourself. You are Great and you are Correct and you are Magnificent.

Felt like trying to be motivational/conforting tonight.

saving for .. sometime when i have money to spend

Fellow feral, may I recommend Idolatre's claw rings from Esty to alleviate your claw dysphoria? A full set of 10 is $275 USD and ships from the northwest of the United States.

I believe they do custom colors, too! They also have other fantasy props but I find myself most drawn to their rings.

All image credits go to Idolatre.

omgg i want angel fangs so bad :((

the species euphoria is calling me

There was a time when I tried to fit in with my friends—people who don’t know I’m a Therian. But whenever they spoke negatively about Therians, I was reminded that I’m different from them, that they will never truly understand me.

I’ve learned that sometimes, to protect myself, I have to be a different version of myself around others. Doing this doesn’t make me any less of a Therian. Sometimes, staying silent—even when it hurts—is the best choice. That doesn’t mean I won’t stand up for myself, but if I want to be accepted in a human world, I have to act like one…

I am so glad for my tumblr community where I can just be myself ❤️🐾🌱
