    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

    “Well, we’re going to have to talk to boys at some point. I’m trying to get some practice in.”

    “Fair enough,” Marlene said lightly, as if she didn’t think that was fair at all. “We’ll have plenty of time for that.” She nudged Mary’s side. “I want to get to know you a bit better, first, though. If that’s okay with you.”

    Ahead of them, Lily was spitting at James with unfathomable rage, her face crimson. James wasn’t faring much better, his hair sticking up in all angles like he’d been tearing at it, clearly about to yell something right back. How anyone could bear screaming at James Potter when they could be talking to Marlene McKinnon was lost on Mary.

    “That’s okay with me. I’d like to know you too.”

    or: a comprehensive documentation of Mary and Marlene's "friendship" between 1971 and 1995, during which they are extremely in love and extremely stupid about it

    Summary

    “They’re… chaos,” Remus said firmly. “And chaos is—”
    “Rock and roll.”
    He looked at Sirius sharply, and for once, matched his grin. “Yeah.”
    “Maybe that’s my excuse then,” Sirius said. “I cause a bit of chaos now, and maybe one day, it’ll turn into rock and roll.”

    After losing his mother at age eleven, Remus has spent the better part of the last four years bouncing from school to school or else running around London and pretending as though he wasn't the kind of well-bred boy his father brought him up to be. Now, with his chances all run out, Remus is sent to Hawkings Independent School as a last-ditch effort to clean up his act. There he meets the very people who will set up the rest of his life, and is forced to confront the pieces of himself he'd long thought had been lost.

    (genuinely not apologising for the slow-burn in this fic anymore. You've been warned <3)

    Kenny's mom assuming that Diego and Klaus were A) a couple and B) Number Five’s parents was both bemusing and amusing at the time. But that was because it was the only time it had ever happened. Now though? Now they just can't understand why these misunderstandings keep happening.

    Jeanie Lucas is back in town, they say. She dates women now, they say.

    Not that Mary Cooper is in any way surprised by that last fact.

    This is so incredible it makes me feel so much. It's so good I'm losing my mind. Actual poetry.
