Summary
He turns sixteen in front of his bathroom mirror with a chill across his skin, goosebumps on his arms, and a burn across his sternum. A wet laugh bubbles up from his mouth, too close to tears, as he watches avidly as ink pours across his skin. He thumbs the mark, presses into it, and gasps when he feels his stomach twist and a feeling he can’t shake that his soulmark is somewhere out there doing the same.
"I loved them instantly. It’s remarkable. Where was that love before? Where did you acquire it from? The way it is suddenly there, total and complete, as sudden as grief but in reverse, is one of the wonders of being human.”

Summary
Steve isn’t used to have anything that is truly his. He’s grown up in an era of hand-me-downs. Everything he’d grown up with was made for somebody else. Was pulled and pushed and squeezed to make fit. So when his soul carved out space on his hipbone, swathes of dark ink spilling across his skin like a balm, he was nearly overcome by relief that this was just for him. When his heart was hollowed leaving room to say here, look, I made us a home, he let out a quick and violent sob and gave thanks to a god he didn’t believe in.
“The moment I saw him, a part of me walked out of my body and wrapped itself around him. And there it still remains.”
