HOLY SHIT Fish Inside A Birdcage Hits DIFFERENT As A Dragonkin Who Works With Dragons. Especially An

HOLY SHIT fish inside a birdcage hits DIFFERENT as a dragonkin who works with dragons. Especially an aquatic dragon. Who gave them the right to call me out like that.

I feel this song in my bones, whoops, guess I'm stealing it from the characters I associate it with-

who else is looking forward to laying in the sun all day when summer comes? reptile nonhumans come bask in the sun with me, we'll lay on the rocks together

Intro post

Hello! My name is Frog. Don't ask me why I'm not frogkin, but my name is Frog, I don't know. /silly

If you're coming from my main blog:

Yup, this is the "super secret" otherkin account of @tadpoles-and-daydreams. I decided to make a separate account and blog for dragonkin and dragon work rambles, since... well, to be honest I just wanted to separate my blog for witchcraft writing, tarot, etc. from this. This is a more personal blog in which I mostly reblog and post random little memes and tidbits, heavy UPG, dragon work, and what the hell does it look/feel like finding out your soul is draconic anyway?

And just in case: if you're coming from my main blog and are unfamiliar with any of the shit I'm talking about here in terms of otherkinity, dragonkin, being a dragon- please feel free to send in asks. I plan on writing more in-depth in a bigger post about what it is, what it's like, how I found out about it, etc. etc. but that will take a lot of time and energy that I currently don't have. Further down, though, I give the best TL;DR I can!

If you have no clue what the fuck the main blog is:

I talk about my experiences as a witch and meme about the funny side of witchcraft over there. Go there and check out my tarot readings if you want a dragon to throw some cards at you, or if you want to hear more about my craft outside of dragon work! I write a lot as a witch over there so if you like my witchy posts here, it's worth checking out.

My special interests include: Writing, Genshin Impact (I don't associate with most of the fandom they scare me), music, anime, the ocean, and "weird miscellaneous facts."

Dragonkin, specifically an amphitere.

local funny little witch man, I work with primarily with my deities and dragons and get bullied by a deck of cards a lot.

My familiar- though I hesitate to use that word due to its connotations as an "assistant" rather than a partner in my practice- is the one who kickstarted this by implying my energies were draconic in nature.

For everyone, regardless of how you found me:

This is where I plan to blog about my experiences when it comes to working with dragons, and fucking being one apparently. I want a safe space to write about my experiences, no matter how much I change. I feel like I've only dipped my toes into a vast ocean, a whole new aspect of my identity and my craft. I decided that I wanted to be able to write completely transparently about it- fears, mistakes, flaws and all- without it reflecting majorly on my main blog/my professionalism as a tarot reader who's just starting out.

So expect it all; the funny, the cool as fuck, the ranty posts, everything. This is just as much a tumblr blog as it is a journal, for me. I heavily value transparency, and that's something I can't be in public as an otherkin.

So I'll do it here instead. ^-^

Important posts:

A post I plan to update continuously of everything I know about my kintype:

The current closest reference I have for what I look like as a dragon, although admittedly not fully accurate:

Tumblr

WAIT holy shit I never posted this

HEY YEAH BY THE WAY I used flight rising's predict morphology thing to try and make what I look like. I sort of just went through it intuiti

Ayyy I can actually offer input here! Local pagan witch, and I was a witch WAY before I realized I just also happened to be a dragon. I've been actively practicing (admittedly in cycles/off and on) for about four years, and I've considered myself pagan since middle school.

My discovery or "awakening" or whatever word you'd like to use was because I started to work with my familiar, who is a dragon, and they basically.... gently implied that there might be a reason I loved dragons so much. And then left me to figure out the rest on my own. Love them, they're a bit of a cryptic bitch.

A little funny to me that I do follow a religion that suggests reincarnation is part of the afterlife (just part of it! it's complicated) but my inhumanity is 100% psychological in nature. It's interesting to me how a lot of spiritual alterhumans seem to intertwine their beliefs with their alterhumanity, I think it's so cool to connect different parts of your identity like that! It's just not me for some reason, they're pretty separate and I'm okay with it like that. I've also noticed a lot of spiritual alterhumans are pagans, which makes me curious if they were following their religion before or after discovering they were alterhuman

(I have also noticed unfortunately a lot of pagans in the community have very appropriative practices that stem from the modern wicca/witchy/neopagan movement that just cherrypicked several holidays from different cultures and then just made up whatever they wanted about them......but that is not really related to this post. maybe for another time lol)

"You make more sense as a dragon, actually."

-my mother, who reacted the same to me "coming out" (I never really was in the closet, I updated her as I learned more about it) as otherkin as she did when I came out as trans. The same words and everything.

Absolutely exhausted today (/POS) so low effort posts only for me BUT I'm so unreasonably stoked you guys. I feel the need to explain the otherkin tag at the beginning of the post; my kind are oceanic, so what I got IS related to it I swear.

My area has a local witchy market that I went to today, and UGH it was so fun. The last time I went everything I got was for my deities, but this time I figured... Well, I've been actively working on self-love and acceptance a lot lately. So I got things for me, with the exception of one crystal for my familiar bc they don't have anything on my altar so I told them to nudge me towards anything they liked.

I am nothing if not predictable; it's all ocean themed. I got a few crystals that reminded me of the ocean (except the rose quartz), a shell, a piece of coral... And now's where I tw it for dead things.

BIG HUGE WARNING, DEATH MENTION/ANIMAL DEATH MENTION.

I got possibly the coolest thing I own; a little friend. More specifically, an octopus in a jar. The other specimens were 30 dollars, which I couldn't justify- but they had one little guy left, who was 25 instead. That makes a big enough difference in my head. I know it might be odd that a dead octopus would feel comforting to an otherkin whose kind were protectors of the ocean, but as someone who works with Hades, I find a comfort in the darker things sometimes.

TW OVER YOU CAN READ SAFELY NOW

So now I suppose I have to clear off some space for a self-love altar, but that comes tomorrow. For now, I'm just happy to have found some things to connect me to who I am, even when I can't go see the ocean.
