I had a question for the soulmate au.
Did Robert go into a coma after the explosion (during the beginning) and if so did the soulmates feel something amiss?
Like a uncanny feeling that something is wrong?
OH I am frothing at the mouth at this! (This is positive!)
Like in the original game, Soulmate Robert did infact go into a coma but this one was riddled with many things being off or wrong. He actually had a much rougher time mid coma than anything than in og canon.
He was put as extremely high risk patient. Had round the clock care and had specialists briefly come in. I’m assuming Chase was Robert’s godfather/god uncle. So while he couldn’t visit him due to the hospital not allowing anybody for most of the coma due to trying to keep his immune system up.
They did call to ask Chase if he wanted to pull the plug after two Months and or if he knew any of the soulmates and they weren’t on record.
He answered the questions and managed to visit twice. Hence him getting Robert the job as Sdn as soon as possible. None while conscious though for Robert.
(Oops I rambled about Chase in this Au I haven’t mentioned his part too much in this Au yet XD)
Some side effects from the soul bonds were different like Prisms sight sharing activated but but only half heartedly since his brain wasn’t always active. So she couldn’t see anything.
Prism assumed he was dead and that she was just seeing from the dead eyes. (Not all soul bonds/marks types are researched well due to the pure variety in universe) so some soulmates aren’t always sure their soulmate is dead when the connection is pulled taunt and or gone.
Like the coma, the bar scene is part of this actually! Everybody felt their soulmate wake up and was so relieved they went out to splurge at the hero bar.
When a soulmate is really gone, there is usually a pretty clear moment where it hits them. But they don’t know until it happens. So anxiety is a huge thing because they worry they missed the passing of their soulmate a lot. Prism suffers form separation anxiety I believe of a sort triggered by this.
So excellent question! Yes some of the soulmates did infact think Robert died. Like Prism and Sonar in particular. I’ve not yet talked about Sonars part but he’s coming up soon.
(I’m starting ship tags for some of them because I don’t know all of em!)
Ty for the ask!!!
