Unclear Chances, 2026

going forward is not always a clear direction..

Portions was answered in these asks [1, 2, 3] but if you want anything more specific, give me another ask.

I havent touched on seperation of soulmates though. Four of the ROs have been or did seperate from their soulmates which is a big no-no in society. Society has placed a huge precedent on people who are connected so entirely to stay together regardless if they are truly incompitable or simple toxic. But people can still sever the bond between if they so desired. It's more of spiritual process than anything physical but it will cause pain when it first happens. Like having a part of your heart ripped out while every cell in your body is on fire. After the pain has stopped, the two soulmates will different markings depending on who started the process.

The person who was ripped from the bond without knowing will have flowers tattoos on their hands and forearms. The flowers will be based on the feelings and emotions that the person who severed the bond had in that moment. While the person who sever the bond will have black stains on their hands like they were trying to ripped apart coal or were dipped in ink. Most severed bonds are one sided as the partner doesn't know about what their soulmate will do util they feel a hollow sort of pain in their chest during the process. Like something was missing from their soul. You can also tell that a severed bond was mutual if they don't have the marking on their person. The markings can be covered but they can't be erased by any means.

The severed bond won't cause the loss of color but everyhting will seem muter or less vibrant. They can regain this vibrancy by connecting with another person but it will be a long and difficult process. The soul has already met their match and build that relationship before it was quickly rooted out by outside sources. It needs time to recover and heal before it can try again. It can survive one broken heart but not another.
