    (Modern AU.) It's hot. Elizabeth keeps going to the same café to write or to relax with a cold drink. At the nearest table, there's this guy. Reading. Day after day, same table, different books.

    Handsome. Not particularly pleasant. Strike that, EXTREMELY unpleasant. God. Elizabeth hates him already.

    Summary

    One would think that having the name of one's soulmate appear on one's wrist on one's sixteenth birthday would make matrimony much less complicated. It mostly does not. And not at all for Miss Elizabeth Bennet of Longbourne.

    (A deconstruction of the "soulmate identifying mark" trope, using "Pride and Prejudice." Trigger warnings in the tags.)

    Summary

    In the usual ones, he’s cold. He’s disgusted. He can’t look at you the same way again. Sometimes he stops talking to you. Other times he doesn’t, but every word out of his mouth is a knife, driving deep. You’re not friends anymore. You know you’ve ruined it because you couldn’t keep your fucking mouth shut.

    In the worst ones, you kiss him.
     
    A series of interrelated snippets chronicling Ronan's struggle with his feelings post-The Dream Thieves and onwards.

    Summary

    It was said that when you met your soulmate, their thoughts about you appeared on your skin. The words could change over time but were impossible to remove if they still remained. And it wasn’t particularly thrilling to know your soulmate thought you were a loser.

    A pynch soulmate au in which your soulmates thoughts about you appear on your skin like a tattoo. The characters are intrinsically the same, but I've stripped back some of the magic to run with my own storyline.
