Time for my yearly session of "am I no longer *insert theriotype*, or do I just feel less connected to it bc of seasonal changes???"
I had a super vivid dream last night about Wolfbloods/being a Wolfblood and it's been making me ridiculously dysphoric all day.
Honestly, the worst part isn't even my lack of non-human biology or physical traits. Yes it hurts not having my paws and my tail and not being able to shift under the full moon, don't get me wrong that causes plenty of dysphoria on its own.
But the worst part for me is knowing that if Wolfblood's were actually real they'd most likely look down on me and see me as some kind of fanatical poser, rather than one of them. Idk why it bothers me so much, they're not real so it shouldn't matter. But it really does get under my skin. I hate that I'd have no way to truly prove that I'm like them, if at the very least on the inside.
And maybe I'd feel better if I was able to study and learn more about Wolfbloods and their culture, get a sense of what it's like to actually live as one. But there's so little canonical information about what Wolfblood society is like, their history, their customs. Anything that is explicitly stated or shown in the show tends to be vague or brief, so Im just kind of left trying to piece together a puzzle that's missing most of its parts. It almost feels like Im the last of a species in a way, picking through the ruins of what others left behind. It just saddens me to know how utterly disconnected I am from where I feel like I belong and that there's nothing I can do about it. There's a scene in season 2 (i think) where a character loses her nonhuman abilities, and she longingly watches from a hillside as her pack shifts under the full moon while she's forced to remain in her human form, and every time I watch it I cant help but see myself in it on such an intense level.
Idk do any other otherkin/fictionkin ever feel like this? Does anyone have recommendations for how to cope with it, or more specifically if there's any more extensive Wolfblood lore out there somewhere?
my new year's resolution (yes ik it's mid january stfu) is to talk about and make more content relating to my other kintypes and focus a little bit less on my coyote/wolf/werewolf-ness
dont get me wrong, i do enjoy talking about those parts of myself and they are important. but my other kintypes are also really important. ive been guilty of letting them take a bit of a backseat because ik more people will be able to relate to living as a canine and that kind of content is going to get the most traction. but in doing that i know im doing myself and my community a huge disservice, and i want to try to do that less.
like yes im very much so a coyote and a lycanthrope, but im also an otter and a wildebeest and an african wild dog and a survivor of the apocalypse and a corvid and a reindeer, and i want to talk about those things too !
I think one of the greatest feelings an individual can experience is believing for years that you're fundamentally different from everyone else in the world in some way and that you're the only person alive who experiences something in a particular way, and then one day all of a sudden you stumble onto another person like you and all you can think is "Im not the only one?"
