Curious to see what other's questioning processes are like for figuring all of everything out! Is there a set of questions asked, rituals done, or whatever else that helps you come to conclusions?

Ayyyy I like talking about this so I figure I'll answer. I have a few questions I typically ask myself to kickstart the questioning process.

1. Does this world's setting seem familiar in a way I can't quite place?
2. Do I have feelings towards other characters that feel irrational?
3. Do I feel attuned to certain qualities of this character?

If I answer 'yes' to all three of these questions, then I will begin investigating the source. I dig up tons of wiki articles and tv tropes pages and just read for hours. I'm very cautious when it comes to new kintypes, so I've only ever confirmed 3 sources using my method, but the ones I have confirmed have been life-altering.
