actually obsessed with Athena and Apollo’s entire dynamic btw though like. they can switch from mercilessly dunking on each other to giving each other very sincere emotional support in literal seconds. the first interaction they ever have is her throwing a cop at him. AA5’s overarching narrative is told almost entirely through the framing device of Athena reflecting on how they became friends in the first place. they get given a scroll with a drawing of two yokai on it as evidence in the murder they’re investigating, and immediately start debating which one would win in a fight. he watches the same video about her current hyperfixation with her five times on loop. he has to talk her out of kicking down a metal door. they’ve held hands onscreen twice. he starts telling her about the gore in a manga he read once, in excruciating detail, within less than an hour of meeting her. she asks him to tie her up to prove a point and he ties the rope in a decorative bow. he has a complete nervous breakdown over the prospect of not being able to trust her or keep her in his life. she is very aware that he’s having the breakdown but blames it on a jacket. they’re on opposing sides of Ladder v. Stepladder. he asks her to punch him. she asks him to rip out a handful of their boss’s hair. they once got into a custody battle over a stray cat. and like that’s just off the top of my head

QuirkSwapSoulMates - Well, assuming you're using CC-pairings for QS, who haven't you hammered out a future spouse yet? & there's stuff like Aoyama & Sato - Aoyama I think we said we can't see ever really "settling down"/get married, while I think Sato was gonna be AroAce, but in a queer platonic relationship with Himi/Tooru - lives with them, they cuddle, but he isn’t romantically involved with them (Or that could just be me?). Do they ALL have soulmates? Are any platonic?
SO!
Everyone who naturally has a Quirk has a Soulmate, as Soulmates are tied to Quirks.
So as Aoyama doesn't have a natural Quirk, he doesn't have someone he's tied to like that. (Which I think would bother him tbh as it would bother anyone to not have that connection to another person and not even a Quirk can fix it.)
Re: Sato: We could go with either the trio being Soulmates but keeping the queerplatonic aspect (though this could get fun as I'm debating whether Himiko ends up in the LoV or not in this AU, despite the Soulmates aspect so she'll have to deal with that later).
I think some I'm giving platonic Soulmates to, but I haven't decided. Right now I'm thinking of platonic soulmates between Fumikage and Eimi because they're funky little twins like that (plus given their 'pretend to be a single person' charade would be blown by having an outside Soulmate that could yoink the Quirk from them so I don't think they would've gone through with the plan). Ofc I have to decide on Soulmates for their respective love interests too.
And I was also kinda thinking on the- so I- I know I've mentioned on here re: the Momo and Shigaraki are cousins so maybe make platonic soulmates because I'm a SUCKER for the equal-opposite Creation v Destruction dynamic?

Seasons of Lilith is currently close to the end of its first arc, and I thought it would be fun to get it back in the tag, rather than reblogging the same post, which is stuck in its comfy orbit.
