    Summary

    “Holy shit..” Noli took a step closer. “Is that a..?”

    “A baby?” 007n7 intervened, finishing Noli’s sentence. “Yeah. Yeah, it is. And not just any baby, it's..” 007n7 trailed off. “Just look at it.”

    The baby stirred in its sleep, letting out a soft, muffled gurgle. Its skin was deep crimson, almost glowing in the dim light. Noli’s mouth was wide open. “Oh my goodness, it’s fucking red.” he whispered in disbelief.

    “Thank you!” 007n7 said, throwing up his hands. “Finally, someone acknowledges the baby is red! I thought I was going insane.”

    “Why is it red?!” Noli whisper-yelled, his voice cracked with disbelief as he flailed his arms like he could somehow fling the weirdness out of the room by force alone.

    “You think I know?!” 007n7 shot back, hands gesturing wildly. “You think I just wander around campus planting red demon babies in cardboard boxes for funsies!?"

    Summary

    [Sokka is five when the first mark appears. 

    It writes itself in a deep red like a wound, as if someone had carved the word “nonbender” in a messy font across the knuckles of his left hand, as if it was handwritten with a knife.

    When he asks his mother, as she applies salve on Sokka’s knuckles, she sighs deeply and says nothing for a few moments. 

    “Sometimes, spirits don’t make much sense.”

    Sokka has yet to turn thirteen when he wakes up screaming in pain, about ten soulmarks all over each other between his left shoulder and his ear, red and vivid like burning flesh. Among the few words that are somehow possible to read out of the disastrous scribbling, “disrespectful” and “coward” and “burned” and “sorry sorry sorry” are the ones that stand out the most to Sokka. He thinks, at the tender age of twelve, whoever did this to his soulmate will be sorry too, one day.

    A month after Hakoda leaves him with the job of the protector at the age of thirteen, Sokka realizes, with a bitter taste in his mouth, that he’s got more soulmarks than his entire village combined.]

    Or, to have a soulmark is to carry the vilest things that your soulmate believes about themselves on your skin.

    Summary

    Sokka didn’t ask to have such an asshole as his Chemistry tutor. And he definitely didn’t expect to end up liking him.

    Zuko didn’t expect tutoring to be his favorite part of the week, and he definitely didn’t expect to be sat on a horse.

    (This concept is brought to you by HiFunctionSociopath and I when we were riding my horses and getting lost in the middle of fricking nowhere)

    Summary

    Jedediah doesn’t know 100% of what happened while he was out, but he does know that he fell asleep against Octavius on the flight home, that Octavius has apparently spent a lot of time over the last few days stroking his hair while he slept, and that he can still feel the warmth in his palm from Octavius’ hand that first time he woke up. And neither doctor had seemed surprised—besides the initial shock of seeing Jedediah awake—to see him and Octavius holding hands and leaning in close while they talked; in fact, they hadn’t asked about it at all. Their new relationship seemed to be a given, like how the museum exhibits knew things about their historical lives and time periods despite never actually experiencing or living in them.

    OR

    Immediately following the events of "Sandfall," Jedediah and Octavius finally get to have an actual date. Obviously, it goes 100% as planned.
