I'm not going to be doing quirks because I'm lazy, sorry.

Au: A red string of fate joins two soulmates together.

~😸~

This string.

This one thin red string controlled most people's lives as their searched for their soulmate.

This one string seemed more like a curse than a blessing. Well, that's what you though. It stopped people doing things they loved just to find someone that might not even love you.

So here you were in Egypt, studying the recently discovered mummified man. You smile happily as you look over every detail of the well preserved figure.

"(L/n)!" Someone calls out your surname.

You put down your instruments and look up at the man that stood before you.

"I have been told that the new archaeologist will be here by tomorrow." he states, adjusting his glasses as he does so.

"Of course, thank you." You smile before turning back to the mummy.

You hear the man's footsteps as he retreats. You instantly turn back, falling into your wonderland of history.

After a long days work you decided that you would head back to your hotel.

Once you exit the building you begin to head towards your hotel. It was an easy walk back to my hotel. The walk was quiet as you wandered through the streets, dodging a few people every now and again. You almost end up losing an eye to a troll's horn.

You stop walking when you feel a tug on your hand. You look down to see a red string around your pinky, tugging forwards. You stare at it for a moment, wide eyed. You couldn't believe it.

You decided that you'd follow to string's tugs. It begins getting stronger as you walk along, until it's almost pulling you over.

You frown slightly when you begin to enter your hotel. It hadn't done this before when you had come in. Maybe a new guest?

Your eyes scan the hotel lobby, looking for another stumbling person, hopefully they have a red string on the end of their pinky too. Your eyes stop when I notice another red string, and the only other string you could see would be your soulmate's. You walk towards the red string until you see the grey hand attached to it.

Wait. Grey hand. That could only mean...

You look up to see a pair of yellow and brown eyes looking up at you. Your face flushes as you stare at the female troll before you. You both look down at you strings as they connect together and disappear.

"Well..." you awkwardly trail off.

"It's nice to meet you," the troll smiles, "I'm Aradia."

"I'm (y/n)," you say as you return the smile, "it's a pleasure to meet my soulmate".

"Well, it's getting pretty dark," Aradia says, "how about we trade phone numbers and meet up some time?"

"That sounds perfect" you reply.

You and Aradia exchange number and agree to meet up when you have your next day off.

~~~

The next day you wake up early and head off to work. You decided to get a head start before the new archaeologist arrives.

"(Y/n)?" You hear someone say and turn to see Aradia standing behind you.

"Ah, so you must be the new archaeologist." you chuckle.

Aradia nods and chuckles too.

"Well it's good to know that we both have the same interests."
