They never figured it'd be like this. Even though they were best friends, they'd never figured that they would get to meet and be soulmates nonetheless.
Dirk had woken Dave up at an early hour so that they could finish cleaning the house more and get to the airport. The drive to the airport was filled with nerves for the brothers as Dave was nervous to meet his soulmate and best friend for the first time.
When Bro had been taken into custody, Dave had been placed in Dirk’s care almost similarly to how John had been placed in Jake’s care.
Dirk and Jake had known each other for a while but knew they were soulmates right away when they had been texting and Jake wasn’t being very careful and hurt himself, and Dirk realized it. As soon as they did, Dirk booked a ticket and got to Jake as soon as he could. Now, Jake and Dirk got to see each other again as well as John and Dave getting to finally meet.
Now John on the other hand had been woken up late by Jake and was pushed out the door with very little clothes packed from the night before. Luckily he had packed some before he had gone to sleep and was able to grab his laptop and phone while being rushed out the door by Jake.
The two of them got to the airport with little time to spare and got on the plane.
John never had the best times on planes, it started when his father passed and John had been first been placed into the care of Jake. Jake had John flown out to his island and considering that John had not had much fun on that trip in a plane or on the island in general, the two of them flew back and Washington and started to rent a small apartment.
With John, he had a bumpy past. His mother left as soon as she could and John never knew her. In turn his father became depressed and dealt with it through work; when he wasn’t working he was baking.
John became detached from the world and his father as a result. John’s father had become so overworked and depressed that he had resorted to taking his own life.
John and Jake always referred to his death as a passing and not as a suicide.
For Dave, his parents left him with Bro. Dave never truly knew his name as anything other than Bro.
Bro was never the best guardian, he filled the apartment with cameras and sex puppets. Dave had always grown up with strifing and this perception of normality of life. Bro had been arrested for child abuse of Dave and a few other charges. When this happened, luck was not on Bro’s side.
Bro was faced with a prison sentence and Dirk had been called into the situation where Dave was transferred into his care.
Dave didn’t really know how to act as a child so he was often misbehaving and getting into trouble at school which lead to more violence at home.
When Dave and John had met, it was almost instant that they were sure of their friendship.
It was one of those moments that you can’t possibly describe, you know that you’ve met someone who you will not drift away from. Someone who will be there when you need them, someone who truly cares.
It was something that you find online a majority of the time and in these lucky incidences, you happen to meet your soulmate.
Now, since John so dearly hated planes, he took a sleeping pill to get some more sleep. And of course it didn’t help in the slightest. Luckily, John had his laptop and decided to write.
Writing always helped John cope and after publishing his stories on wattpad, they easily gained popularity.
John had been contacted by a few publishers about his works and decided to go with one.
John had his books published under a penname and nobody knew that it had really been a teenage boy who wrote these books.
John now never had trouble with money. If he wanted something online or even in the real world, he could easily pay. It was good for him and he could easily be set if he kept writing his stories. And that’s exactly what he did and planned on doing to support himself.
John’s stories consisted of someone who was heavily abused at home and never thought that they’d meet their soulmate. They were sure that since they were constantly getting her and hurting themself, that when they found their soulmate, their soulmate would surely hate them. But when the main character had found his soulmate, they fell deeply in love and the stories follow their lives and conflicts. The stories also follow along with other characters. To make more books, John also follows along with the other characters in separate books and it generates more of an income.
Without even realizing it as John was deeply concentrated on his laptop, the flight was about to land.
Dave and Dirk waited patiently at the Baggage Claim area to greet their soulmates.
Long time no see. Sorry about that lol. I also changed this blog name to PinkOctopusArt.
Here is a Demonstuck/Hell Au design I did for Vriska. Based off the short Manga series Love in Hell, which I definitely recommend . I included a close up of the face because I know it is hard to see in the big picture.
