   Summary

   "Didn't you hear? One touch from your soulmate and flowers will bloom where they touched you. Doesn't that make you so excited, Virgil?"

   "Doesn't matter."

   "Why?"

   "I don't want a soulmate."

   Or...

   The five times Virgil meets one of his soulmates and the one time his soulmates meet him.
