Okay I'm going to repost this with links because everyone needs to know this especially people who know me and love me, my Discord account got hacked, whatever I say there is not me, I might get it back by calling the company that runs Discord when they're open but right now it seems to not be working, honestly please I'm so scared and panicking I need help, Like emotional help, Is there a voice chat feature on Mastodon because I need it if it's there #Alterhuman #Otherkin #Dragonkin #furry #scalies

A bird can be like a selection:
its feathers can be quite a blur.
A dragon, an orchestral section,
The horns crown o'er scales shining pure.
Chimeras are not far from countries,
one creature of many made whole,
but as many leaves thrown from one tree,
we creatures have seen the same soul.

From early in my mem'ries, I've seen dragons in the clouds.
They whirred and whirled; e'en from afar I've dreamed their flight aloud.
I came to see myself as one in time, yet year by year,
my soul's connection to my form was by soci'ty cowed.

I came to thrive in human terms, alike but not quite here;
I came to be content (almost) without my horns and ears.
My study of the true by placid waters was subsumed,
and only to the moon did I dare voice my deepest fears.

But now I feel my soul-search ought no longer be entombed,
So here I find myself, to find myself again and bloom.
What will that bloom resemble? While my shape has likely shifted,
With creatures nigh, so too shall I, and my song will resume.

I've been a tiger from the very beginning. but when my parents got divorced, I found myself in the world of dragons, specifically in the world of the legend of Spyro. I have started to feel like a dragon, got shifts of a tail, horns and wings. when I joined the community, I was already swind. swind was someone I created. she is a part of me, but I'm not her. she is something like a mixture of a headmate and copinglink (a nonhuman identity you choose to cope). and I think, without swind, without being a wind dragon, I wouldn't be here today

so yes. I have created swind. I'm her and I'm not her at the same time. she is me as my copinglink, and not me as a headmate at the same time. it's confusing, but it makes so much sense to me now

I'm confident in saying: I am swind, I am a dragon. and I am confident in saying: I am dreki, I am a tiger
