Don't

  • Saying “you remind me of [ID]!”
    • (That implies I'm not the same person as them.)
  • Calling the character “your fav” in front of me
    • (That can feel like talking about me like a fan, not as the character.)
  • Shipping them with other people in front of you without consent
    • (It’s like shipping me with someone.)
  • Critiquing, mocking, or headcanoning the character in ways that would hurt me
    • (Because to me, that is me.)

I share with friends! These change depending on how close we are!

Pls

  • Refer to me as the character (or use first-person when talking about them with me)
    • (It helps affirm my connection and makes me feel more seen)
  • Compliment the character in a way that includes me
    • (“You’re really cool” instead of “They’re so cool!”)
  • Talk to me about canon events like they happened to me
    • (I like being seen as if I lived that life, it feels real to me)
  • Show me fanart/fics/scenes you think I’d like as them
    • (Especially if it’s something I've talked about before it means a lot)
  • Ask for my comfort levels before discussing difficult topics from the canon
    • (It shows care and awareness of what might affect me emotionally)
  • Use pet names, canon nicknames, or affirming titles if we’re close
    • (I often put in lists diffeent names of characters I like so u can call me them!)
