Summary
The first time you touch your soulmate, brilliantly coloured lines appear on your skin, twisting into patterns. While you’re both alive, your soulmark will slowly grow over time, and when your soulmate dies the lines stop growing and turn black. Having a large soulmark is something to boast about, something to comment on, a sign of a lucky fate, of finding each other early and remaining together for years.
If you’re immortal, this is…inconvenient.

Summary
The “Partners Weekend” at Merrick Industries was a bit of a joke, and in more ways than one. Who actually had time to spend a long couples weekend with people you worked with? But Joe had slaved away too many hours at his desk to blow off his chance at a promotion just like that. Particularly when all he had to actually do for it was spend a weekend in some manor house in the English countryside with his colleagues.
Which led him to his current predicament: Who of his friends would agree to pose as his spouse for four days – and at one week’s notice?
Double fake-dating AU: Joe asks Quynh to pretend to be his wife for an important work social at Merrick Industries. Andy brings her good friend Nicky under a similar guise. Only of course none of them is actually straight, and of course none of them is willing to admit that.
A dumbasses-to-lovers story.

Summary
The first day Lydia missed school, Allison figured she was allowed a pass, all things considered. She sent her a text after school, teasing her about playing hookie, but wasn't concerned when she didn't receive a response. Lydia wasn't always the most reliable about returning messages. When she didn't show up Tuesday morning, Allison called her, but only got her voicemail.
When Lydia missed her big calculus exam on Wednesday, Allison knew something was wrong.
