May I ask what the difference is?

IDK, I'm sitting here thinking philosophical questions about this: are they still clones if one of them has a completely altered personality, or do we just go for carbon copies of the same person? Do any physical alterations after the nondescript cloning process make them no longer a clone, or are we gonna go for certain specific "percentages" of likeliness in clone tags? How would identical twins be treated, since they could look almost exactly the same and be a "clone" of each other, in a proverbial sense.

Personally, I think this should be aliased to selfcest because I'm sure these questions will be asked by other taggers, so unless we want to set some hard definitions/answers selfcest is the better tag to use.

I think I agree with aliasing instead, clonecest might be interpreted as "fucking a clone, but not necessarily yours", but I don't agree with aliasing as well, because selfest might also mean the character is alone, fucking themselves through portals/penis tail.

And what if the character goes back in time and fucks itself? Are they clones?

The selfcest tag can mean many things, but it generaly describes a character engaging in sexual activities with a form of themselves. It can either be an identical duplicate or a different version of the same character (pretty much an explicit version of square_crossover).

The clonecest tag, on the other hand, solely describes a character engaging in sexual activities with an identical duplicate of themselves.

=========

The difference between the two tags is so minimal that an implication would make things complicated. I’d say alias clonecest to selfcest, since the latter can also suggest the former.
