Serenity || An Otherkin's Journal

December 27th, 2016

I saw a shitty story about therianthropy that had therianthropy all wrong. The author seemed like they had a basic idea of what it was, but it was more wolfaboo because the main character's theriotype was a 'pure white wolf named Luna with azure blue eyes'.

I'm not even making that up and if anyone wants proof or a link I can message it to you privately.

Anyway, onto the day! I went shopping, and had a phantom shift. In public. Well, my leg felt really weird, sore, tingly and strange. My foot also felt different. I had an extension limb shift! It wasn't fun, slightly painful especially in a public place, but it was kinda cool. I had it for a little while, forgot about it when we visited the pet shop, but then it came back.

Oh yeah, the pet shop. I felt bad for all the animals in there. One, I don't know if I can trust the pet shop completely. And two, it was really crowded and I saw one of the guinea pigs borrowing beneath the straw because they were so overwhelmed :c

While I was shopping an idea hit me. What if there was a special shop for therians and otherkin? Not an online shop, but a real one in the mall/shopping centre. It would have separate sections for canines, felines, avians, rodents, mythkin, etc.

It would sell shirts and pillows with theriotypes and kin on them, headphones, etc. They would also sell tails, ears, collars, jewellery, and other types of gear. Even plushies!

There would be blankets too, sleeping masks for meditating, journals with animals on them so therians and otherkin can write down their daily experiences in them (kinda like we have on Wattpad!).

Dream crystals too, for dreaming. And the store's soundtrack would be sounds of nature, and there might even be soaps with smells of nature. They would also sell CDs of nature sounds, etc. Phone cases with animals on them too. Basically anything for therians and otherkin to express themselves!

And maybe a request booth too, so if you don't see your therio/kintype, you can write in a request for it and the staff will try their best.

I don't know, it just seemed like a cool idea? Obviously I am too young to manage a shop lmao, but it's a nice thought, where therians and otherkin can express themselves and possibly meet other like-minded people!

Also guys, I had a cameo shift yesterday, a mental one specifically. I got down on all fours and started growling and snapping like a wolf. I know when therians have dreams or shifts of an animal that isn't their theriotype they assume they have a second one, but I don't, I take them as cameo shifts.

So yeah, that's all for today. Haven't had a chance to meditate yet.

See ya!
