Chapter 1: Chapter one: Soulmates
Chapter Text
We all know the story of the glowing baby that started off the dawn of quirks, but in this universe soulmate marks were the first new normal to get used to.
At the age of 14, most people will receive a mark on their body that matches another persons.
Those two people are supposed to be each other's one and only true love.
But there are always exceptions to that rule, not every soulmate couple works well together.
That doesn't mean that, the couple doesn't try to work through their issues.
As it's very taboo to go against your set path of love through soulmates.
Individuals that do, are cast away from society and shamed for their decisions.
Y/N L/N was a famous singer and idol in Japan, her music didn't centre around a specific genre.
She liked to branch out her musical talents to any and every genre she could.
Keeping her fans on their toes.
One thing about Y/N is that she is in her early twenties and still hasn't found her soulmate.
Finding your true love is supposed to happen whilst you're still a teenager.
But Y/N is well past that.
But Y/N does have a soulmate mark, she isn't markless.
What true irony would it be if she was to add on being markless whilst already being quirkless.
Society would deem her even more worthless than now.
Y/N from the beginning of her career hid her mark, for the soul purpose of people not trying to fake a mark that looks like hers.
In the hopes of tricking her into believing they are soulmates.
Funny thing is that Y/N actually still has this happening even when on one in the public eye knows what her mark looks like.
Y/N has thought about revealing her soulmate mark to the public.
As revealing her mark might help in Y/N's search in finding her one and only but is all the trouble really worth all the drama of making sure the person isn't faking their mark?
Chapter 2: Chapter two: First meeting
Chapter Text
Having released her long awaited album, Y/N and her management team decided that it’s finally time to go on the ‘Put Your Hands Up’ radio to promote it.
The radio show is hosted by pro-hero present mic, Y/N has been declining to appear on the show since her first number one single.
The reason always ended up with Y/N not having no time in her busy schedule.
With finally completing and debuting the album she has been working on for the last few years.
Y/N had far more space in her schedule.
The singer was really excited to go on the radio show, she found Present mic to have a very fun personality.
She listened to Put your hands up radio when she had some breathing room between live shows, fan meet-ups and writing new songs.
Y/N arrived about twenty minutes before the promotion interview at Put your hands up radio was to start.
She meet with the producer, camera crew and management team.
Whilst getting some quick refreshments, Present mic approached Y/N.
Sharing some pleasantries and introducing themselves.
“Welcome to Put your hands up radio Y/N, as you might know I’m Present mic” Yamada said in a flamboyant tone and wink to finish his introduction.
Y/N giggled, finding Hizashi to be very funny and charming.
Yamada and Y/N shook their hands as a greeting.
“Thank you for having me” Y/N said while smiling.
“No no thank you for coming” Hizashi replied, whilst they were shaking hands.
Y/N’s sleeve rolled down her arm, which in turn revealed her soulmate mark.
Yamada caught a small glimpse of it and he was about to ask if he could see it fully.
“Your soulmat-”
But he was interrupted.
One of the camera men called on Hizashi for some last minute preparations.
“Sorry about this Y/N, but the job calls- can’t wait to properly welcome you on air” Present mic said with a wink and finger guns.
Y/N smiled amused, whilst Yamada ran after the camera man.
Chapter 3: Chapter three: Interview
Chapter Text
Present mic was sorting out some last minute preparations with the camera men and management team, making sure everything was ready for the interview with Y/N to start.
The studio was bustling with excitement as they geared up to welcome the talented singer for a chat and a few fun games.
Present mic begins the interview with Y/N with some standard questions, discussing her latest album.
The conversation flows easily between them, and Present mic's charismatic personality and natural banter makes Y/N feel at ease.
"Y/N, your latest album is absolutely amazing! Can you tell us a bit about what inspired you to create this masterpiece?" Yamada asks.
Y/N replies in tune to the great atmosphere that the interview was going, "Thank you, Present Mic! When I started working on this album, I was going through a bit of a rough patch in my life. I wanted to create something that reflected my emotions and my growth as a person. The songs on this album are all deeply personal to me and I'm excited to share them with my fans."
Present Mic smiles warmly at Y/N's sincere response and says, "That's really powerful, Y/N. I think your fans will appreciate the raw emotion and vulnerability you've poured into this album.”
Present Mic exclaims, "Alright, folks! Let's kick things up a notch and dive into the fun part of this interview - the mini-game section! Get ready for some mind-bending challenges and wacky shenanigans. And, of course, I'll be your ever-cheerful host to guide you through the madness. So buckle up and let the games begin!"
Y/N laughs heartily at Present Mic's exuberant introduction, his energy and enthusiasm contagious.
"Oh, I can't wait to see what kind of mini-games you have planned, Present Mic," she says with a smile.
“I'm already getting a feeling this is going to be a blast!" She continued.
"Alright, Y/N, for your first challenge, let's try a little game I like to call the Song Lyric Challenge. I'm going to read out a few lines from a random song, and you have to guess the song title and artist as quickly as possible. Ready?"
"I'm ready! Hit me with it, Present Mic." Y/N says in a excited tone.
"Here's the line: ' So shine bright, tonight, you and I, We're beautiful, like diamonds in the sky’ So, Y/N, can you guess the song title and artist?" Hizashi questions.
"Oh, that's an easy one, it's 'Diamonds' by Rihanna!" Y/N replies.
After a few more rounds of the Song Lyric Challenge, Present Mic declares with a dramatic flair, "Alright, that's enough of the song lyrics challenge for now. Time to switch gears and test our tongue-twisting skills in the one and only Tongue Twister Showdown!"
Y/N and Yamada take turns reciting a series of tongue twisters, which they alternate in choosing.
Despite Y/N's impressive skills in the earlier game, Present Mic struggles and fumbles through a few of the tongue twisters.
They both share a hearty laugh at his comical attempts, finding humor in his playful struggles.
As the interview progresses, Present mic sees an opportunity to subtly mention soulmates without being too obvious.
Present Mic notices that the conversation has reached a comfortable and natural lull, the perfect opportunity for him to drop a subtle hint about soulmates.
He glances down at Y/N's arm, where he had a brief glimpse of her soulmark earlier during the greetings they shared.
Feeling intrigued by the possibility of her being the missing piece between himself and Shouta, Hizashi decides to bring up the topic discreetly.
"Y/N," Present Mic begins, "Your fans must always be curious about your love life, given how much you pour your heart into your songs. Do they ever ask about soulmates?".
Y/N nods and responds, "Yes, Present Mic, you're right. Many fans often bring up the topic of soulmates, but the irony is that they don't even know what my mark looks like."
Present Mic, trying to feign nonchalance, replies, "Oh? Surely the fans have some theories or rumors about it, right? I can imagine they must be quite curious about what your soulmate mark looks like."
Y/N agreed with Hizashi’s statement.
Present Mic nods, understanding that he needs to maintain a casual demeanor to avoid appearing overly inquisitive about Y/N's soulmate status.
He quickly pivots the conversation back to other topics.
"Ah, I suppose that's the nature of being a celebrity. Fans are always curious about the personal lives of their idols. But let's move on to something else," Present Mic says, smoothly changing the subject to keep the conversation light and engaging.
As the interview concludes and the crew begins wrapping up, Present Mic sees an opportunity to speak with Y/N privately.
Once they are outside and away from the others, Present Mic approaches her.
"Y/N, before you go, I noticed something," he begins, his voice lowering. "I think I caught a glimpse of your soulmate mark, and I just can't shake the feeling that I’ve seen it before”.
Y/N eyes widen in shock, not expecting that at all.
Chapter 4: Chapter four: Soulmarks
Chapter Text
Y/N's heart skipped a beat.
She wasn't expecting Present Mic to mention her soulmate mark, and the fact that he thought he recognized it caught her off guard.
“What?” she gasped, her eyes wide in disbelief.
Y/N's shock only grew as Present Mic awkwardly averted his gaze and scratched the back of his head.
Seeing him uncharacteristically unsure of himself made her all the more curious about what was happening.
As he slowly rolled up the sleeves of his shirt, Y/N's eyes widened in disbelief as she caught sight of the soulmark on his arm.
It was the exact same marking as hers.
They were soulmates.
Y/N mirrored Present Mic's action, rolling up the sleeve of her own shirt to reveal her soulmark.
The mark was had delicate, black tendril-like lines that connect to each other in a web-like pattern.
The lines are etched onto her skin in the shape of a flower, and they seem to have a subtle, silvery shine to them.
The mark is located on her inner wrist, just below the base of her thumb, and it looks as if it was designed to be part of her body.
Her eyes met Present Mic's, and she silently confirmed what they were both already realising.
Their soulmarks were unmistakably identical.
Unable to contain his emotions, Present Mic tears up as he gazes at their matching soulmarks.
Suddenly, it all clicked into place.
This was the missing piece.
This was what had been missing between him and Aizawa all this time.
As tears streamed down his face, Yamada pulled Y/N into a tight embrace, feeling both overwhelmed and relieved at the same time.
As the weight of their discovery sank in, Y/N's own eyes welled up with tears.
The moment of acceptance and realization was filled with an overwhelming mix of emotions.
She clutched Present Mic tightly as they stood there, tears streaming down both their faces.
Present Mic, still brimming with excitement, shared the news with Y/N about the existence of their other soulmate, Aizawa, and their adopted children.
However, as the gravity of the situation dawned on her, Y/N couldn't help but feel an inkling of dread.
She couldn't ignore the fact that she was now being introduced into an established couple, a relationship already filled with love.
The thought of being an outsider, an interloper, weighed heavily on her heart.
Y/N's anxiety seemed to take over as she hesitantly voiced her deepest concern, "Am I... a burden? You and Aizawa already have each other, a family, and now I am being introduced into this. Am I intruding on your happiness?"
Y/N's voice trembled as she continued, "If I am a burden, I completely understand. I don't want to disrupt what you and Aizawa have built together. I can step aside, and you both can continue your happy life without me in between."
Present Mic quickly reassured Y/N, "No, no, you're not a burden at all! Aizawa and I have always felt that something was lacking in our relationship and I'm just glad that I said something. I should have been considerate of the fact that we've only just met and that there's time for us to get to know each other better."
Y/N chuckled awkwardly, feeling slightly embarrassed about her emotional outburst.
“Sorry about that, I don't even know why I got so emotional,” she confessed.
Present Mic chuckled too and smiled brightly at her. "Don't worry about it," he said.
“It's natural and perfectly understandable. Science has actually shown that emotions between soulmates can intensify when they first meet each other."
Y/N's phone interrupted their conversation with a notification from her manager, reminding her of the photo shoot she needed to attend.
"Oh, shoot," she muttered, glancing at her phone, "I gotta go. My manager just reminded me about the photo shoot I have to get to."
Present Mic nodded understandingly and they quickly exchanged numbers.
They then hugged each other goodbye, bidding farewell for the time being.
As Y/N made her way to the photo shoot, her mind was racing with thoughts about her encounter with Present Mic and the realization that he was her soulmate.
The excitement and anticipation of meeting her other soulmate, Aizawa, filled her with both trepidation and curiosity.
Little did she know, the journey to finding her place in this unconventional love story was just beginning.
