What you would call someone with human personas, suits etc in fandom? Genuine question. (sh.itjust.works)

Yes, I have a kind of a slightly difficult problem. What you would call me if I was just an alien or alien minded human who just attended the fandom with a human "furry" persona. I have a neurodivergent human oc who is a sparkle(-insert species) besides that pet rock dragon. All stuff that I can find about this is neither innaprp kind of nsfw stuff or just low quality shitposts n jokes. I mainly have humans and pet rocks as my fav animals for dead srs and Im crawing for a human "fursuit" while you guys know I crawed furryness for pet rocks before getting into those stuff. Ofc all of those for sfw art stuff only. Anyways, what you would call someone with those interests in this fandom, please sfw and serious stuff only.

This is really an interesting question, I think you’d call it a reverse furry? Like since furry for many people is being their animal sona.

Makes sense. Thanks.

Maybe a therianthrope?

I do not think so. But when combined with the other the reverse furry stuff, I think it is off topic but I do relate to the "reverse" therian in the same way for furry.

Maybe I'm not understanding your question, but you said you feel like an alien in a human suit...? That seems to fit with the definition of therian, unless you want to exclude "alien" from the animal category.
