I agree, it's more like empathy for objects directly rather than assigning human anything to objects. For instance, I don't perceive objects as human, honestly if I can help it I don't even perceive humans as human. I have empathy for concepts that have nothing to do with humanity or with assigning things humanity or human characteristics. Nothing I do or feel is human-centric. I don't even identify human myself (I am otherkin)

Oh dang, so the others do walk among us?
Hehe :) in that sense I'm not sure if I exist in the physical world at all. It's more of an in-my-head thing. I perceive the outer body as entirely separate from my actual self. Maybe that's due to my dissociative disorder, I dunno for sure.
