    Summary

    Mark Scout arrived everyday in different variants of the same basic suit and pair of brogues. Every single day for the past two years Mark had arrived and then departed in the same suit, a pattern so basic it had never even crossed his mind that it could change.

    But now the elevator doors were about to open and Mark looked down at himself, wearing skin-tone heels and a pair of tights, a navy pencil skirt tight around his waist and a cotton blouse in baby blue.

    These were not his clothes.

    -

    In which Mark Scout exits the elevator in clothes that are not his own and has to grapple with his own gender identity and decisions made by his innie.

    Summary

    Altea is a world of dragons, magic, and, until recently, war.

    It's also entirely fictional.

    When Lance put on his VR headset, he fully expected everything he experienced from that point on to be false.

    But his feelings for the kill-stealing jerk in red armor couldn't be more real.

    Summary

    Lance McClain constantly dreams of the day he'll finally meet his mysterious soulmate. They don't say much, if anything at all, but they leave him with gorgeous paintings temporarily tattooing his skin. It's not exactly the situation he hoped for, but when he feels the connection between them, he can't bring himself to resent them. As much as he wishes his soulmate would just talk to him, he's resigned himself to being patient. In the meantime, he has a loving family and good friends to help him get by.

    Keith Kogane dreads the day he'll finally meet his obnoxious soulmate. He's just an art student who's struggling to find his place in the world. There's so much he hasn't been able to control in his life, and the thought of having a soulmate, just another thing in his life which he also has no control over yet can't do anything about, is a little terrifying. So he ignores the words that occasionally appear on his skin. He has other things to focus on: like being a new student at a big university where his childhood friend and step-brother go.

    Summary

    Everyone in the world has some sort of affinity with one of the four elements; the proper term is elemental affinity– whether they are best suited with fire, water, earth, or air.

    All figure skaters are water users. Never in the history of the sport has there been a professional ice skater that didn't have water as his or her elemental affinity. Katsuki Yuuri has a well-guarded secret that he can't have anyone find out about.

    aka, the one where Yuuri can potentially decimate the rink every time he steps on ice, but no one can know. Especially Victor.

    Summary

    Everyone has a soulmate, so everyone has a mark.

    Nobody talks about it though, at least not out loud.

    The mark appears on a random, covert part of your body the moment your soulmate falls in love.

    Sometimes, you accidentally miss that moment; sometimes, you intentionally do.

    ***

    Soulmates and soul marks were private, intimate things.

    He's heard about them in passing, from the hushed voices of his parents, the drunken slurring of his older sister and ballet teacher, and the quiet, but sweet whispers of his friends from the rink. He knows they've had them early on; he knows his skin had been clear for more than two decades.

    The day Yuuri Katsuki finds his soul mark, he was nursing a throbbing headache and a terrible hangover.
