Re: What's your MBTI?

*hi5s! * I think that might be because we're also one letter away from having the same MBTI? Similar characteristics, you focused on rationality and me in emotion? The tests are not related, but they kind of try to describe the same things.

(I share my type with a lot of people I like as well. Can't go wrong with Chopin, Anaïs Nin, Frida & Florence 8DDD)

That does make a lot of sense! I think I've also seen people saying that INTPs are more likely to have the four wing than other NT fives, because we're kind of the over-imaginative weirdos of that group. :P

(Oliver Sacks, Stephen Hawking, Gary Larson, Albert Einstein, Stanley Kubrick, Salvador Dali, Jane Goodall, David Cronenberg, and Kurt Cobain over here!)

That's true! (The overly-excited imagination part, I'm not that knowledgeable at this).

I've heard that depending on the situation and company people might temporarily express one or more features present in other letters. My strong core has always been N_P, for example :3, so it's nice to know other tests that can make it less like a generalization and give it a little flexibility. We're all individuals, after all. (Which is the reason the MBTI/Enneagram are interesting tools when constructing characters, IMHO).

(Can't argue with your 5w4 mates there, omg. You got the coolest bunch 8DDDb)

Oh, they're totally awesome for characters! I've never used MBTI as a template, but typing already-created characters out of curiosity always makes me see them in news ways and gives me some insight in to how they might actually think, which I think helps me better convey and articulate certain things about them. Or give me some insight in to what I've already been doing. I've been writing from the POV of an ENTP-ish protagonist, and a lot of the narration is him telling these rambling stories because something reminded him of something else, and making these really off-the-wall comparisons between different things. This has always been part of how that character is, but when I was doing some reading earlier, I realized that a lot of this is him using Ne! It's not just him being varying levels of manic a lot of the time, or being a clever dude who pays attention to, takes notice of, and thinks through everything around him. I mean, it's those things too, but it's also literally how he makes sense of his world.

(Well, to be fair, it was a list of fives in general. But still, awesome mix of imagination and logic!)
