we’ve all heard of the NSFW alphabet, but what about a SOULMATE AU ALPHABET??
a...ging stops at 18 until you find your soulmate so the two of you can grow old together.
b...ody art (doodles that a person draws on themselves appear on their soulmate’s skin).
c...olors (aka the standard soulmate au where the world is black and white until you meet your soulmate and see colors).
d...amage done to a person also translates into their soulmate’s body (cuts, bruises and all).
e...sp (soulmates can sense one another’s presence and feel each other’s exact emotions even when miles away).
f...irst words/thoughts your soulmate says/thinks when seeing you are written on your skin.
g...uardian (it is said that the person who saves you from a near-death experience is your soulmate—drowning, car crash, etc.)
h...eartbeats (the soulmates share the same heartbeat—when one feels panicked, shocked, etc, the other can feel it too).
i...dentifier (a word or symbol which is imputed to your soulmate is somewhere on your body).
j...uxtaposition (your soulmate is the exact opposite of you, yet you find yourselves complementing one another).
k...eys and locks are randomly dispersed to soulmates on chains when they are born. when in proximity, the lock and key will act as magnets and bring the two soulmates closer together until the key is placed in the lock and a gratifying click is heard, unlocking the chain.
l...ast words your soulmate says are written on your skin, so you do not know it is them until they are gone.
m...arks or stains of the color black are somewhere on your body (palm of your hand, knuckles, knee) until you and your soulmate finally make physical contact. once the mark is touched, it fades to be consistent with the person’s skin color.
n...urse (the touch of a soulmate can heal you from affliction and vice versa).
o...pportune outfit (soulmates will eternally color coordinate, even if they have not met one another yet, and often times have similar patterns in their clothing).
p...assionflower (a type of flower soulmates have planted somewhere beneath their skin. Upon meeting their soulmate it will sprout through the skinand fully blossom as they reach the furthest point of their relationship. when a soulmate passes, the flower blooming from the other person does also).
q...uizzes revolving around one’s personal aspects, skills and ambitions are given to every person once they turn 18, and the results read who your soulmate is based off of your collective answers.
r...ed string bonds two soulmates together for a lifetime and all come in varying lengths—imagine the trouble of only being able to walk certain distances or having to sleep on the edge of your bed.
s...ongbird (any songs a person sings will get stuck in their soulmate’s head for the duration they decide to sing it).
t...imers are set on the wrist of every person once they are a certain age, slowly counting down until the day they meet their soulmate.
u...ndying (you and your soulmate must meet in order to end life—die—together. as long as you have not met them, you will continue aging yet remain immortal).
v...eiled (you and your soulmate must walk through life blind until running into one another by fate and finally gaining sight—those with no soulmate act as guides and help those in search of theirs).
w...riter’s choice (author can pick any au from the list to write).
x...FREE SPACE, the person who sent the prompt has the choice to make up an au or choose one from the list!
y...ellow fellow (colors of your vision changes depending on your soulmates mood. yellow is optimistic, green is envious, blue is upset, etc. and natural colors become present once the soulmates meet).
z...zz (in which soulmates first meet each other and share memories in their dreams before meeting each other in person—sometimes difficult to accomplish as dreams are hard to remember).
any writers on tumblr feel free to reblog so followers can send a certain letter to your inbox :) or just for ideas!
hold on a fucking second. delaware is a state?? i thought it was a river? or is the river more important than the state? why don't i know this? (i should mention i don't like in america, i'm just confused)
there is delaware (state) and delaware (river)
both are equally strange
the state is a tiny little cryptid thing
the rive is a monster that spans new york, pennsylvania, new jersey and delaware. also washington crossed it once and that was like kinda a big deal i guess. like crossing the rubicon in rome.
the state tries to me more important with its “im the first state!!!” bs (seriously its even on the fucking license plates) but we all know. its the river.

I’ve included a very comprehensive list, organized by the type of body movement, hand and arm movements, facial expressions etc. In some cases, a phrase fits more than one heading, so it may appear twice. Possible emotions are given after each BL phrase unless the emotion is indicated within the phrase. (They are underlined for emphasis, not due to a hyperlink.)
Note: I’ve included a few body postures and body conditions as they are non-verbal testimony to the character’s physical condition.

i have not done a math problem in months , this did not stop “22 x 13″ from slapping me in the face and it also didn’t stop the kick in the gut of “ show us your progress
my mind immediately blanked and hard swerved into oncoming traffic
When Deku and Kacchan start dating, Deku keeps a “relationship notebook” because of course he does. He fills it with doodles and all the things that Kacchan does that make him really happy and also with date ideas, future wedding plans and what their kids might be like. He even has one page filled with what their names would be like
“Midoriya Katsuki”
“Bakugou Izuku”
And all kinds of mushy stuff. Once they take their relationship to a more intimate level, Deku details all the things Kacchan does during their intimate moments that he just loves and also writes certain techniques down because of course he does. He is analytical about everything.
He hides the notebook from him because he knows Katsuki would be absolutely mortified by the contents but one day Bakugou finds it and just relentlessly teases him about some of the things written in there.
Bakugou gets a stress induced ulcer every time Deku pulls something stupidly self-sacrificing, lies in a hospital bed next to Deku and proceeds to go off on him, in hopes of Deku finally growing a brain so that he can stop putting Katsuki in the hospital.
(And sometimes stupid Deku will be unconscious for days and Bakugou will lie on his side, in pain because Deku is still not awake and hope the damn nerd will open his eyes soon.
Katsuki gets better and discharged before Deku wakes up yet will come by to sit in that stupid hospital chair so that Inko can go home and get some rest and when Deku wakes up, he will leave without a word.
That’s when Deku realises that he fucked up magnificently because angry Kacchan is vocal and makes his feelings known, not in words but in actions.
Silent Kacchan is hurt in ways Deku can’t understand and it kills him a little.)
The Showman is here.
Context: Showman was required to go to a risky in person meet up and was convinced by Twice to let a double go in his place. The real Showman is watching on the camera.
Okay, Lippman had a point. Chuuya really does have a random knack for acting. His acting skills saved lives.
