   Summary

   Everyone is born with a soulmark on their forearm, about a sentence long. The sentence is what your soulmate was doing the first time your souls meet; the first time you touch, skin to skin. After you meet, the words change into your soulmate's name.

   James loves the concept of soulmates, but has always dreaded meeting his.

   Regulus had expected a different type of meeting the first time he read the way he met his soulmate, but he supposes this was fine as well.
