Kinection

A connection with a kin. It's only a term used when you first connect with your kin, like when you first realize the kin is there. It's when you realize your 'kinection' to them.

“ My friend Salem is currently reading things in a kin of their's voice. They did not previously know of this kin, so this is their first kinection with this character.”

kindnection

A blend of ‘kindness’ and ‘connection’, this term refers to a bond formed between individuals based on mutual acts of kindness, empathy, and understanding. Kindnections often lead to meaningful, supportive relationships that thrive on positive interactions and a shared commitment to uplifting each other.

Through their volunteer work at the community center, Michelle and David developed a deep kindnection, finding joy in their shared passion for helping others.
