bakerstreet | Soulmate

soulmate meme ;
▸ post your character ◂
▸ you're now in a universe where destined soul mates exist! ◂
▸ rng for the type of au and for the ~situation~ ◂
▸ tag around ♥ ◂

type of au;

1. tats, your character has a tattoo of the first words the love of their life will say to them
2. familiars, your character has an animal tattoo representing their soul mate on them
3. glow, the first time your character sees their soul mate, their chests glow!
4. world in color, life is literally black and white, until you see your soul mate for the first time
5. choose your own, i'm definitely missing a milly because i'm lazy, pick your own

situation;

1. First Meeting: You'll feel the spark almost on first sight. Yes, he's not your type. No, she's is a villain and your a hero. It doesn't matter. You can't chose these things.
2. Not Accepting: No, this person can't be it! They're so...so not what you've expected!
3. We Belong Together: You've decided to come together, like it's intended, and you're reaping the benefits.
4. Like Ships in the Night: The obligatory sex option. The two of you are cementing your bond in the most traditional of ways, and you'll soon learn that sex with others can't compare to sex with someone who's completely yours.
5. Stronger as Two: In battle or in life, the two of you combined are unstoppable.
6. There's Someone Else You've met your soulmate...but you're with someone else. Now that you know your other half is out there for sure, can you keep that up?
7. Love Will Tear Us Apart: Someone is hurting one half of the pair, and it's bringing pain to both of you. Maybe you can protect or save the other.
8. Not Fortune's Fool: You're flying solo. You have no intention of becoming a matched pair. Forget about what anybody else says, just focus on you.
9. Soulmates Never Die: Except when they do. Somehow, yours has passed on or is dying in your arms, leaving you alone in the world. How do you feel?
10. WILDCARD: Choose your own.

[The daughter of King Arthur and Guinevere, who seeks/sought to restore Camelot and reclaim the round table. Absolutely here for AUs and crosscanon and also just fitting canons together. Voicetesting.]

[I'm a fan of tats, familiars, glow, or a vast variety from the choose your own identity spectrum. Situation would generally prefer 1, since it would initiate the cr line, but if we're already established, I'm good with most except for 8/9. Can be mushed into canons I'm familiar with and will welcome chars into NY Marvel. PM if needed or just go whole hog.]

[ I love chests glow and world in color but ALSO consider:

- meeting in dreams (may be able to interact in them or not, maybe they just can't speak/communicate but can interact in other ways?)
- time stops for a minute (or a few) when they meet for the first time, for everyone but them
- red string tied around their pinky is connected to their soulmate’s pinky (when the two of them are in a certain distance from one another)
- your soulmates first impression/thoughts about you is written on your body (temporary or permanent)
- a touch from your soulmate will leave an imprint there (like a different coloured area on your skin, or a symbol, or name)

or, yk, other possibilities from this big old list if you want! comment or message me, I love to hash out details or jump right in! ]

[My headcanon is that fae have fated soulmates, but they frequently enter into handfasting/marriage contracts for the purpose of attempting to procreate or for love, but it's a timed contract type deal that allows for the release if a soulmate comes along. Fae fully understand fated soulmates, and they are very particular about not intervening between them (barring the dark types that like to mess with it for shits and giggles.

For the meme, I'd love Type: 1, 2 (either tattoo or an actual familiar), 3, or a handful of stuff from the 'Choose your own' option. Situation, likely a 1 since he's an OC and doesn't have canon cr. 5, 7. Not interested in 2, 9. Anything else, I'm open to discussion in DMs or here. Canon characters and OCs welcome.]
