Summary
"I find myself wondering, sweet reader, when exactly someone will take a shovel to the back of this racist statue's metal head and begin dismantling our university’s scandalous love affair with the most problematic donors they could possibly find. I’m looking at you, President Zarkon, kindly remove your hand from the Republican Party’s dick. This is a liberal arts college for God’s sake."
When Galra University's Tumblr page, meant for football game updates and pleads for attendees for club meetings, is plagued by a mysterious writer determined to eviscerate every toxic part of the college, Lance is intrigued. When he becomes a leading character in the anonymous letters, well, he gets a little more curious. Lance becomes determined to unveil the writer and find out a) what is his problem exactly and b) does he really think Lance's eyes are that blue?
A tale in which Lance is oblivious and pining for the hot nerd in the back of his Greek mythology class, Keith can wield a pen with deadly cruelty, and you, dear readers, suffer from the pains of dramatic irony.

Summary
"Lance had watched Keith Kogane win a bar fight with a broken hand, rip open a keg with a knife, and complete a whole wretched ensemble of activities you definitely shouldn’t do with a beer in hand.
And yet here he was, glittery Sharpie in hand, waiting to sign Lucy’s copy of Altea.
Lance opened his mouth to say something arguably rude and not appropriate for their current audience. Until he remembered that he himself had either watched or participated in these activities and was now holding a four-year-old containing his DNA. So Lance didn’t have much of a leg to stand on either."
When Lance runs into his ex-boyfriend at a children’s book signing, he not only finds out that Keith Kogane ages like fine wine, but he also apparently wrote his daughter’s favorite book. As Keith lingers in town, Lance frantically tries to keep his daughter from realizing that the writer is not only a person from Lance’s past, but a character in her bedtime stories as well.

Summary
Since the beginning of time, humankind have been privy to a phenomenon unique to Earth; magic that allows those who are destined for one another to meet. Everyone has a soulmate, and the Soulbond makes them possible to find - the only caveat being that the Soulbond only activates if a Bonded Pair happen to come within a certain proximity to each other. With 8 billion people on the planet, the odds of running into your Soulmate seem pretty impossible...
But then again, so does the entire concept of the Soul Swap: the universe's magical GPS that lets you know that you're within a couple hundred miles of your Soulmate.
Not that any of it matters for someone like Lance. He's long given up on dreams of finding his One and Only, and besides! He's headed off to space; not necessarily by choice, sure - but it wasn't like he's going to find his Soulmate up in the stars.
---
(Or: When Soulmates come within close enough range of one another, they swap bodies, get a psychic link, and can only switch back once they make physical contact.
Piece of cake.)
