Get the Irl kin mug.
an IRL kin is where someone believes they're something they aren't, such as a character from a piece of fiction. it's used mostly in coping mechanisms! . keep in mind that a comfort character is not and never will be an IRL! (there are similar terms and other names for these though!) IRLs are identified if you have close attachments or memories to a character or person, as for attachments can go as far as literally resonating their memories/feelings with your body. (atleast, in my case.) this could also be called/mixed up with D/A (Delusional Attachments) though.
