What about you and your hearttype are different?

Rapunzel is much more outgoing than I am, though I’m getting better. She also doesnt seem to have the crippling RSD i do that stops her from from being outgoing lol

How did you discover (and confirm) your hearttype?

i always knew! When i found the term “hearttype” it was the last puzzle piece i needed for my relationship with rapunzel.

What was the hearttype that took you the longest to confirm?

Rapunzel is the only one that i’ve confirmed. I’m still questioning Sypha Belnades and Lugia.

Are you a “deep longing to be”, “deep admiration and empathy of”, “ideal self”, “should have been”, and/or other experience ‘hearted person?

... i’m firmly in the boat of “should have been”, with Rapunzel. Everything about her and I feel the Same™ but that i’m not. It doesnt bother me, but it’s just enough to go “this makes me smile and feel all warm and fuzzy” but not because i am Rapunel but because… she escapes the things that were bad. I havent entirely–yet.

For Sypha and Lugia, i’m not sure at all yet. Sypha is much more “ideal self”, due to how when i see Sypha’s face, I see my own face. Lugia… i dunno. Others have suggested its because Lugia and I are both water goddesses and thus I feel comfort and relation in her but I just dont know.

Any headcanons/theories about your hearttype?
Any habits you picked up from your hearttype, or any you had before you even knew about it?

These two are really hard for me to answer because of the above. My relationship with Rapunzel isnt so much “im her but shifted to the left” so i dont have any habits of hers or feel like i know a different version of her. The stock story really feels like the one i know and should have been, no changes or really any need for me to have ever thought of anything having been different.

As for Sypha. [[Minor Spoilers for Netflix Castlevania Season 2]]

I knew exactly what was going on in Sypha and Trevor’s arc and how to stop it, from the second that they found those sigils carved in the first house. It made me quite upset when Sypha on screen did not do exactly what I thought she would. Am I Sypha from a different canon and thats why I knew it? Or was I just knowing the logical thing? I’ve done hand motions for magic as well, before having watched Castlevania, but mine are different than Sypha’s on screen. I’m also in the polycule boat :P so that’s rather upsetting.

the way i feel connected to sypha is so different from how i feel about rapunzel that it’s hard to describe what my relation to sypha is, which is why i havent written much about it since i actually sat down to engage with her media. rapunzel is this all-encompassing feeling of “this feels like me. i should have been there, why wasnt i??” yet, when i look at sypha, it’s legit like looking in a mirror.

you hear a lot about how alterhumans have this thing where they look in a mirror and dont recognize themselves. i’m among them, have been all my life. humans are familiar to me, and i instantaneously recognize that it’s myself when i see myself in the mirror (as in right now, if i were to go look in a mirror i know it’s me in the skin’s image that is reflected). but i dont recognize my human face, it doesnt register as me. most often than not, i expect to see another creature in the mirror.

but when i look at sypha, look into her eyes, i see my own looking back at me. i reflexively trace my eyes over her blonde hair, like it is mine. her clothes look comfortable, familiar. i look at her and go “my bangs are out of place”.

and yet, nothing else about me feels like her. everything that is alike between us feels coincidental, rather than vibing with me. she hangs out with alucard for that little while and i really love vampires? oops, coincidence. her jacket is blue, i LOVE blue. meh, no biggie. i love hearing stories and learning!! i mean, so do a lot of people.. it’s to the degree that it reinforces the things that are different about us. she’s a Speaker, her memory is fantastic–mine is shit. i dont recognize her magic or her accent. hell, i thought her name was pronounced “see-fah” when i read it online.

but i just.. keep coming back to her appearance. that alone feels like there’s something there. i just… havent figured out what.
