Okay guys hear me out.
A soulmate AU where you have a black stain where your soulmate is supposed to touch you for the first time and it turns to millions of colors once they do.

Someone having a very visible black palm on their cheek that they try to cover up because people will just know they will be slapped one day.

a handprint on your upper arm that bursts into colors during a fight you’re having with a close friend because you tried to walk away and they grabbed you–you never noticed that you never touched them until right now twin handprints on your chest because your soulmate happens to be the paramedic who steps in to give you chest compressions that one time you almost died a handprint on your palm but it’s not upside down like a handshake would be, you’re puzzled until you give someone a high five and the colors appear someone you just met brushes a leaf off your shirt–RIGHT WHERE YOUR HANDPRINT IS YOU ALWAYS WONDERED WHY IT WAS ON YOUR PEC

–and so is the half-done plait, bright against solid black hair.
