How did YOU find out you're a fictionkin??
@Ash!!! ☆

Hello! Max here, and I'm a gubby fictionkin!

The way I found out I'm a fictionkin is...interesting. When I first played forsaken, it felt...oddly familiar. I felt like I belonged there, and I started feeling comfort at any mention of it. Then I saw gubby, and immediately knew that that's why I felt that way. I remember things such as being around mafioso, being in the casino, going every with him, and being thrown around. And then I started getting bunny like urges, and bunny shifts. That's when I knew I was gubby.

Pretty much!! I've also always had an odd connection to bunnies and fictional bunny characters, but gubby was the one who sealed the deal!

Have you considered that it could be a strong like/attraction to the character instead?

Writers create characters to connect with their audience, it's a very important part of media. If you don't connect with a character, then you likely won't care what happens to them and thus may stop reading/turn the TV or movie off, etc. So you're supposed to feel things the character feels or even see yourself in them.

Sometimes feeling a close connection to something is just that: a connection and not part of our identity.

That is a possibility, yes. I say I'm a gubby fictionkin, when in reality, I don't know. I'm still questioning it. I might not be, sure, but at the same time there are times I see myself in him, I remember things that I didn't remember happening before I saw gubby. It's not in my control if I am or not, but it is in my control to figure myself out
