    Summary

    The smoke settles in like syrup, clogging his breath and watering his eyes. He closes them, and, true to their form, his oceanic irises drip to the tips of his lashes. His one body of pride holds: he refuses to cough.

    “Good,” is all Magnus says, the hushed tone pushing forth more smoke. “Good.”

    Summary

    Most people get their Soulmarks any time between fifteen and twenty. A few words, sometimes a sentence or even two. The next words their soulmate will say to them. Usually, the first words they'll ever hear from their soulmate.

    Magnus never got a Soulmark. He's looked. Many times.

    At first he just assumed it was because of what he was, some byproduct of his freakishness. In his centuries, he's learned differently. Most immortals, most warlocks like him, they get Soulmarks the same time as everyone else. Sometimes they have to wait decades, centuries, to hear those words. Some of them find another Soulmark, decades after living a life with their first.

    But not Magnus.

     

    Alec has never spoken a word. He can't. In a world where soulmates are connected by Soulmarks that show the first words the other will say to them, he wonders what this means for his soulmate.

    Summary

    At first he thinks it’s a side effect of the quirk. But then he looks at Todoroki. Recognizes the look of confusion and agitation that curls across his own face, the way he feels when shit’s too loud or the sun’s too bright.

    So this is just what Icy-Hot’s head is like, then, he guesses. Closed to visitors.
