JAY MERRICK

from marble hornets. one of my main ids, so much so that jay is my most commonly went by name nowadays. one of the characters that went from platonic, to kin, while still being a platonic f/o.

charlie

my own slenderverse and boyfriend to death oc. one of my major ids as well, although their name was stolen from a different kin all together. they're a cat bastard who ended up with habit and patrick, miss those assholes.

alfendi layton

from layton brothers: mystery room. an old id i still cling to because he just never really went away. one of my first major kins all together, actually, and one i have the most (if vague) memories of.

piers nivans

from resident evil 6. another case of platonic to kin while still being a platonic f/o. it was the end of the campaign that did me in, so yes, the thing that made me realize i was kin with him was seeing him die. whoops.

charlie emily

from the five nights at freddy's novels. the charlie i stole the name of to make the oc, and the old reason charlie was a name. i still have a bit of a connection to her, all these years later. mostly, i remember the first two books.

michael afton

from five nights at freddy's: sister location. all i remember is that i was the michael that got scooped. hurt like a bitch, to be honest. other than that, i really don't have many memories.

springtrap

from five nights at freddy's 3. i was the suit itself, not the man inside of it, somehow. i remember being in fazbear's fright but not knowing why i was there. spooky shit. sorry to the poor night guard for scaring you, couldn't stop myself.

sigma

from overwatch. i started playing a couple years ago and something clicked while i played sigma. i remember being really damn mad at talon about everything. and that the reason i seemed insane was my own damn timeline getting spaghetti-fied.

strawberry cookie

from cookie run: ovenbreak. it just sort of clicked when i first got into cookie run that oh! i'm strawberry cookie! i wish devsisters would buff her or something, i wanna be able to use my kin more often.

oswald

from epic mickey. oswald was one of my special interest characters when i learned about him through epic mickey, so it wasn't really a surprise to me that he became one of my first kins. i remember not hating mickey as much, and not being that close to ortensia.

alice

from the live action resident evil films. listen, i watched these movies to make fun of them, somehow i came out of it realizing i was kin with the main character. i think that's powerful of me. she's now become one of my main ids.

cecil palmer

from welcome to night vale. one of my oldest kins, and not one i feel a super close connection to, but i still consider myself kin with him. i have only a few vague memories, mostly because i haven't listened in years.

ratcatcher 2

from the suicide squad. my best friend wanted me to see this movie like four times and by the second one i realized oops, that's me. something about some of the scenes (especially that one near the end) felt really familar in a kin way.

sophie walten

from the walten files. i think part of why i ended up kinning her is because i already kin charlie from fnaf, and they're very similar. still, parts of bunnyfarm had that familiarity i feel in kin stuff. also partially because a friend mentioned probably being kin with her, and it clicked for me then.

charlie andersen

my resident evil 1 self insert. yes, i know, i kin multiple of my own ocs/sis, but listen, late-night realizations are one hell of a thing. mostly, to be honest, i just vaguely remember how i felt post-5. very angry, i'll say that much.

glitches

specifically, r/softwaregore, vhs tears, static, and glitchcore music. don't ask me how i'm glitchkin, i just am. mostly vibes, but also like somewhere along the cosmic road, my existence was just a glitch.
