Soulmates AU

An AU where everyone in the universe has a soulmate, the first words you say to each other is tattooed on your left wrist, so you know when you've found them. I just wanted to briefly explain the concept behind this. Say your first language is English but your soulmates first language is French, then the writing on your wrist would appear in French even if the first words they say are in English. It's a way for people to find their soulmates easier. Anyway, now that's I've cleared that up I hope you enjoy this short little imagine!

You've always been intrigued by the strange symbols tattooed on your wrist. You found them unique and different. Of course, it goes without saying not everyone shared the same thought. Children would tease you and adults would look at you with pity. You didn't understand why until you got already and realized no language in the world matched the odd shapes. There was no way for you to decipher them, no way for to know what the first words your soulmate would say were going to be. Your parents did their best explaining that not everyone meets their soulmate and maybe you were just one those people. You didn't accept that for a long time, until your twenty-fourth birthday to be exact. You couldn't bear the thought of never meeting the person destined for you. Of being alone and forced to watch everyone else find their soulmates and carry out seemingly perfect lives together. It hurt but you learned to get used to it. Eventually you began covering the tattoo with long sleeves or thick bracelets, hating the teasing and pity that always come along with it. When your parents passed away you found yourself utterly alone in the world. Struggling to make friends considering they always found their soulmate in the end and got wrapped up in a new life.

You became used to the constant empty feeling in your chest. The understanding that even if you met your soulmate, you likely wouldn't even know. You've had so many first interactions with people, and you could never be sure if their words were the ones tattooed on your wrist. You excepted it but never truly got over it. At least not until you met the Doctor.

It had been a normal day; you were returning home from the store late one night when you ran right into a giant scorpion. You had instantly taken off in the other direction only to bump right into the trench coat wearing Time Lord. He took one look at you, grabbed your hand and spoke one simple word with eyes wide in an excitement.

"Run."

"Gladly," you had returned.

And that's how it began. The many adventures far and wide across the universe. Exploring planets and creating all sorts of trouble. It made you almost forgot about your soulmate, about the strange symbols on your wrist. Although at times you still found yourself tracing them at night while tucked away in your bed on the Tardis. You had considered the fact that perhaps your soulmate was an alien, and even looked into the countless current languages throughout the many galaxies. In the end you always came up empty handed and found yourself questioning why you even dared hope. Again, it wasn't so bad. Knowing you'd always have the Doctor at your side, but you couldn't help but question if he'd eventually find his soulmate one day as well. Forgetting about you and leaving alone once more. You tried not to worry yourself over it, especially considering the possibility he could have already met his soulmate once and lost them. You didn't dare bring it up for a long time. Almost a year to be exact. That is until one day, while sitting on the edge of the Tardis hovering over the Earth, you couldn't hold your silence any longer.

"Doctor," you spoke up tentatively, "Do you have a soulmate?"

His eyes flicked towards you with a small smile before gazing back out at the beautiful world below, "I do. I'm not sure I've come across them yet. You know how it goes being a time traveler. What about you?"

"I'm not sure actually," you respond sheepishly, wondering if he'd give you the same pitiful look so many others have if he knew about the tattoo on your wrist, "If I did, do you really think I'd have agreed to travel with you," you add teasingly causing him to chuckle.

"I suppose not," he returns with a smile, meeting your eyes. You shift nervously for a second, glancing towards his covered wrist before back towards his questioning gaze.

"Can I see it?"

"I don't see why not," he agrees, pulling the sleeve of his suit up to reveal one simple word upon his skin. Gladly. You almost chuckle, realizing that's the first thing you had said to him when you meet. It's even become a running joke of sorts between the two of you, every time he tells you to run you always respond with that word. It doesn't really click or mean anything to you, considering there are countless reasons someone could say that to him. Though a part of you feels somewhat bad you've said the first word his soulmate is supposed to say so many times.

"Can I see yours?" he asks softly, causing you to nod as you pull the sleeve of your hoodie up to reveal the symbols.

"Just don't laugh," you beg, looking anywhere but him. You don't expect the sharp inhale followed by the feather light touch of a finger tracing the tattoo. You look towards him curiously, seeing his eyebrows pinched in confusion while an almost awed smile sits upon his face. His sparkling brown eyes finally meet yours, the grin widening in wonder.

"Do you know what this says?" he asks, causing you shake your head in response.

"Run," he says simply.

"How could you know that?" you question, not quite catching on to what he's already realized.

"Well simple. It's Old Gallifreyan."

Your eyes widen instantly, mouth nearly dropping in shock as you stare at him. "Wait. Does that mean?"

"I'm your soulmate," he finishes, his smile growing impossibly wider as you can only laugh in disbelief.

"All this time I thought I'd never meet my soulmate and yet here I am. Having been traveling with him for nearly a year," you exclaim, unable to contain your growing excitement.

"No wonder I liked you so much," he teases, causing you to smack his shoulder playfully.

"I thought you liked me because I'm clever!"

"Oh, I do! But Y/N, you're my soulmate. In all of the wide universe, you're my soulmate."

"I hope that doesn't bug you," you respond sheepishly, suddenly wondering if he's disappointed that his soulmate is a plain, old human.

He laughs at that, those beautiful brown eyes holding a fondness in them you've never seen before.

"Why would it bug me? You're absolutely brilliant, full of compassion, and more stunning than any star or nebula! If anyone were to be my soulmate, I'm glad it's you."

You can't help but blush at his words, "I'm glad your mine as well Doctor," you respond before sending him a teasing look, "Now you can't get rid of me."

"Oh, I would never dream of it," he grins leaning forward to kiss you for the first time. And that is better than all the galaxies combined. Better than watching Super Novas or exploring foreign. You almost feel breathless as he pulls away.

"I've been wanting to do that for a long time," he admits with that endearing smile you can never get enough of.

"Me too," you return, causing his eyes to soften as he leans forward to peck your lips one more time before bouncing to his feet. He holds his hand out to you with an excited grin.

"Now where should we go for our first date?"

For everyone that was expecting matchups I’m terribly sorry. I fell in a really bad uncreative hole that has taken me a long time to crawl out of. It has been so long since I’ve even logged onto Tumblr. I’m hoping now I’ll be back on more frequently and will fulfill all the requests in my inbox!

[ride4ruin]

I'd love to request a match up if it isn't a bother! I was wondering if I could get a match up with a character from The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings!

Here's a description of me!

My name is Georgie. My pronouns are She/Her and  my sexuality is straight! My hair is a dark brown(almost black at first glance) and it reaches my bum. My eyes are a dark brown as well. I'm 5'4" in height. My hobbies are Sketching and writing poetry. Some of my interest are music, reading, and playing with my dog. I love my long hair, and wish it was longer. I've always loved/wished I had elf ears! I like to look at the moon, stars, Sunrises and sunsets! I'm an ambivert! Shy at first but opens up after a while!  Fun fact, When I blush, my ears get red and warm as well as my cheeks! I also have dimples when I smile! My personality type is INFP-T

Hiii! You sound like such an amazing, creative person! You are actually the first person I’m doing a matchup for so I hope you like it 😬

The Hobbit

Okay the first time I read this I instantly saw you with Bard for The Hobbit! Hear me out for this one! Haha ~

You are a human who has lived in Mirkwood for a few years been good friends with Tauriel. You always enjoyed living among the elves since they understood your love for nature in ways many can’t. When she goes to Laketown she convinces you to come with where you meet Bard and his children.

While you don’t see much of Bard to begin with, his children are sweet and adored you right away. During the orc attack you went with them to help keep them safe. Even when Smaug attackes you stick by his daughters watching as he slays the dragon.

During the Battle of the Five Armies you see much more of him as you stick near the Mirkwood elves as he does. You end up battling together for some time until he asks you to watch over his girls once more to which you agree.

By the end you’d grown quite close with the children and even Bard. He offers to take you on a date in thanks for watching over his girls. From there your relationship grows as you travel with him to Mirkwood on occasion and teach his daughters how to write poetry.

After a few months you move into a cozy house in the rebuilt town of Dale where you take walks every morning in the forest and sit atop the cliff sides together in the evening. As a surprise for you and his girls he brings home two puppies that are rambunctious but faithful. You enjoy life together as The Master of Dales wife and the adoptive mother of three clever and beautiful children.

The Lord of the Rings

Okay here me out on this one as well... I hope you don’t hate these matchups I’m just really trying to go off the personality and vibe you give me! ~

You and Lord Elrond had been friends long before he met his wife. When she passed you had been living in Lothlorien at the time learning under Lady Galadriel. It wasn’t until Sauron returned that you reunited in the Battle for all the Free People of Middle-Earth. Getting injured, although it was nothing more then scrapes for an elf, he insisted you returned to Rivendell to heal. You couldn’t say no considering Imaldris was known for its Healing Halls and it had many years since you’d seen your friend.

While you end up deciding to stay in Rivendell your relationship takes a while to blossom. While you both were always close it was awkward to speak on your feelings, for both of you. But you enjoyed each other’s company nontheless. Taking late night walks past the rivers of Imladris sparkling in the starlight. Reading in a comfortable silence together under beautiful trees blossoming vibrant flowers.

It isn’t until a few years after Saurons final defeat, when the Ring is destroyed that he finally admits his feelings. You are walking on the outskirts of Imladris as the sun begins to set. Yellow, red, orange, pink, and purple all mix together on the horizon past the trees and rivers. You two had been walking silently when he stops you and suddenly kisses you. When he pulls away he smirks with a look of love in his eyes, then with a wink he turns away speaking loudly, “I love it when the tips of your ears turn pink, it is rare in elf but beautiful nonetheless.”

I hope you enjoyed!!! Have a Happy Thanksgiving! 🦃🍁

I just wanted to give a little update cause I’m excited! I’ve gotten a few matchup requests and those will be done tomorrow! Feel free to send me any other requests you have! Have a good night:)

[ride4ruin]

Hiii! I saw you do LOTR matchups and honestly I’ve never asked anyone to do one before but I always love reading yours so I was hoping if you come across mine you’d be willing to do it:).

I live in a pretty small town in Idaho so I love nature and being outdoors, we even live under a mountain were we go hiking a lot in the summer. I own quite a few animals including horses that I adore and four crazy dogs. I’m kind of shy and nervous around new people but once you know me I’m a ball of energy! I love reading and writing, art, medieval music, classic movies, and long novels! I used to do competitive gymnastics, rodeo, and rugby, so I’ve always been kinda athletic. I stopped growing in the eighth grade at 5’ 2 haha. I have (usually messy) medium length blonde hair and blue eyes.

I don’t really care who I’m watched with cause I love every single LOtR character in their own way! They all truly hold a special place in my heart. I hope this wasn’t to long, and even if you don’t get around to do a matchup for me I think your awesome and I love the work you do:)! Thaankkk yoouuu! ❤️

Ok I got the vibe that you and Haldir would be mwah, amazing!

This marchwarden sees you and is smitten on the spot (you know how it is with elves). You’d been travelling with the Fellowship only a short time when you came to Lothlorien, but you were taken by the sights and a particular elf.

When the battle of Helms Deep, you spot the orc coming up and Haldir and strike it low before it has the chance to kill him. After the battle the two of you promise to reunite once the Ring is destroyed, and you do just that!

The two of you will spar together, take long walks, and horseback ride all the time, your days are filled with adventure and it’s never a dull moment!

Have a good week love!
