Soulmate AU where a soulmark is the most hurtful thing your partner will ever say to you

Imagine the couple dynamics:

Enemies to lovers speedruns that realize it only gets better from here.

Childhood sweethearts with playground taunts that become a running joke.

Sugar sweet lovers who tip toe around eachother until they randomly say it.

Imagine Searching:

A kid immediately starts bullying everyone in their class.

The sweetest old lady in town turns meaner and meaner by year.

Being extremely nice to people you don't want to be your soulmate.

Imagine the Angst:

Getting into a fight with your long term partner, because they knew it would hurt the worst.

Hearing your soul words growing up, and having proof of what your partner hates the most about you on your body.

Having significantly more vile words on your body than the people around you.

Imagine incomplete soulmarks:

Soulmarks that reject their soulmate, or break up with them.

Never seeing your soulmate again after they say your words, realizing they were the most hurtful because you never got to know them.

Your soulmate has their marks, but you don’t, so you have to wait until they hurt you. Until it turns out to be their last words.

Doodle because I already wrote a fic and I’m still not done grieving

Need to find an insane person who already wrote and finished a 30k story with a very specific plot in response to content that was posted a little over 24 hours ago.

I miss 2020.

This is why I wait until fandoms are dead before I get into them.

The amount of people who are suddenly feeling betrayed by media because it “turned woke” makes me concerned for their overall intelligence.

I knew media literacy was at an all time low, but COME ON. The media was always “woke” you just didn’t want to see it. You saw a show and thought haha funny and never considered that it had any meaning.

Have you ever heard of nuance? Of underlying themes? Do you understand satire?

The characters you glorified were literally making fun of you.

It happened with South Park, it happened with Joker, it happened with American Psycho, and it happened with Fight Club.

Maybe work on your pattern recognition.

Getting confronted with media you hyper-fixated on 3+ years after it was relevant should be considered nuclear warfare

Is it part of the trans experience to low-key hope that you get cancer or am I just fucked up?

I'm starting to realize that i inhabit very academic spaces, and surround myself with people who are literature oriented, so now whenever i meet someone who doesn't provide a sonnet worth of descriptors i just stare at them like.. oh. That's it. Ok.

LIke if you can't describe a color with more than one word, you lost me.

Sometimes I smoke just enough that I have to pause and go “wait… is this how normal people feel?”

And suddenly everything makes sense

I am actually extremely funny at all times, you just need to have had the exact same life experiences and be at the exact same level of chronically online to get it.
