About soulmate AU’s and the “No Soulmark = no Soulmate” thing

to be honest I’m specifically thinking of like first/last words au’s. but other indicators/interpretations could also work.

there are billions of people on earth, this is a fact, you will not meet anywhere close to every single person within your lifetime. like just from a statistical standpoint this is true.

the thing is within a lot of soulmate au’s a lack of an indicator is taken as a lack of a soulmate. instead what if it meant you would never meet that someone who’s the other part of your soul? the angst has the potential to be so much worse. romantic or not.

imagine all your friends get their indicators but you don’t. they all are guaranteed to meet their person (or persons) at least once in their lifetimes but you won’t. you will never meet them, your person does exist, but you will never know them, no one will ever know you the way soulmates do.

just imagine

i think that’d make some soulmate au’s more interesting.
