[”Okay but what about a LAMP soulmate au where, when touched, your skin discolors to one specific color, whether it’s some stranger or close family. If your soulmate touches you it’s the complementary color to that.”]
-quote from one of my old posts a year ago
I just wanted to redraw these when I found them (and also add some D to that LAMP and a little highschool au) and I love it!
(Dee and Roman are already together. Patton and Virgil meet when Virgil moves into Patton’s city. They live in the city next to the one Dee and Roman are in. Logan goes to school in another neighbor city. They all meet at some fair, a school sport game or another meet-up between the schools. The coup is that most of them lived this close together and never really met.)
soulmate color // normal touch color
Patton: cyan, red-orange
Roman: red, light blue
Virgil: yellow, dark blue
Logan: mint, pink
Dee: magenta, yellow-green
I was thinking of some headcanons while drawing so you get them too:
Dee always walks around like a runway model both clothing and attitude wise
They both get all the main parts in theater club
They’re very dramatic, sometimes they fight so vicious the whole school hears is, people bet on how many hours it takes this time until they make up again
Roman is insecure about his height
Dee loves his height, very hug-able
Dee only lets his soulmates touch him, strangers make him uncomfortable
Virgil has natural curls but straightens them as long as he has enough motivation
Patton cares for the animals in his school’s petting zoo
Logan and Dee already met, they’re both part of their respective school’s decathlon teams (not that they know that they’re soulmates)
Patton just wanted to make friends with the new kid, grabbed his hand in the halls and now has a soulmate who doesn’t actually want a soulmate :(
Virgil had some bad memories of the concept of soulmates
his parents were soulmates but hid dad was an abusive asshole and Virgil, his mom and his younger twin siblings ran away
It took two months until Virgil was comfortable enough to start meeting up with Patton and opening up to the idea of soulmates
he did copy Pats homework in that time though
i take back the meet-up thing from before Virgil and Logan meet in the library in one of the cities in the most cliche way
Logan can’t get to one of the books on the higher shelves so Virgil decides to help, Logan gets startled, they touch and Virgil’s confused because??? two?? soulmates????
they meet up, Patton sees Logan and Virgil holding hands, runs up to them and just hugs the living crap out of them
Logan joins their meet ups
Logan and Dee befriend each other since they both learn to be opener with other people and they feel a connection
it’s still Roman and Patton who actually find out they’re soulmates
Pat, Virgil and Ro are supportive boyfriends and visit one of the decathlons Dee and Logan both compete at
Pat bought sandwiches with him and offers one to Roman
Roman takes it, they touch, they stare at each other, nervous flustered Roman stuffs his face full with sandwich and nearly chokes xD
having more than two soulmates is incredibly rare- whoops I got four i guess
Roman and Patton are cuddle kings, the other three are more hesitant about being touched but Ro and Pat can always count on each other to be hug-ready (they’re always hug-ready for the others too though)
y’all have no idea how much fun i had with the different hair colors <3 so much better than everyone having brown hair
Roman dyes his hair different colors all the time
Virgil can sleep better when his soulmates are there
Logan looks like he’d hate any contact with any human being ever, which is also why he doesn’t have too many friends, but he actually doesn’t mind touching as long as it’s not too excessive or it doesn’t hinder him at what ever task he has to do right now
funfact: the first time you touch your soulmate the skin where you touched gets warmer and begins emitting light so you don’t frickin’ miss that your life just took a 180 degrees turn
