A/n: Hey, Author here. I haven't posted jack-shit due to family and friend* issues. It's been fucking up my mind and I've just been setting shit straight. I finished these two parts though, so you've actually got something.
Glad people are responding positively to this book, though.
Enjoy.

My soulmate has quite the potty mouth.

Y'see, whatever your soulmate says ends up written all over your limbs, and stays there for roughly an hour. It's presented like pen, yet it's unwashable. When new words appear on your arm, a small tickle is felt where it is. It can get annoying.

At the moment, it's lunch and my soulmate is yelling curses at 'some kid' Deku. I don't know much about what's going on other than he is pissed off. I'm just reading all the words that are forming. People always give me concerned looks when they see my arms and legs riddled with cusses and insults.
I can only guess who my soulmate is.

"He talking up a storm again, is he?" [Fr/n] asks, spectating me as I gaze at the lower side of my arm. I look at them "Hm? Yeah." I chuckle. [Fr/n] looks at their arm. [Fr/n]'s arms and legs are covered in compliments and sweet words. Lot's of sorry's, too. "What [Sm/p] say?" I ask. "It says 'Hey, [Fr/n]. Love you." [Fr/n] reads. They look at another spot on their arm "'Who are you reading this to?' It s- oh." [Fr/n] smiles. "My friend. Love ya too" They then say. I sigh and lean back. I wonder if I could contact my soulmate like [Fr/n] can.

Time Skip

I'm in my bedroom, playing videogames. I keep getting that subtle tickle on my arm, and everytime I look I just see swears and insults. I sigh "Ey, soulmate, bud. Can you stop cussing? I'm not against swearing, it's just fucking annoying." I say.

Katsuki's POV

I look away from my phone and at my arm and read what my fuckin soulmate said... Oh that fucking bitch! "No, fuck off!" I scrunch my nose up a bit, pissed off that they called me annoying. "Fine, fine." Soon appears on my arm. I roll my eyes and go back to what I was doing.

My soulmate never usually tries to talk to me. I look at my arm and read all of the words they recently said. There are a good amount off cusses, too, so they can't just fucking tell me to stop my cussing! God. The tickle appears on another part of my arm and I groan, annoyed. I look at my arm, reading "So. How are you?". "Fine." I sneer. "Quite the hothead, are you?" "Fuck off." I turn my phone off. "My name is [Y/n], what's yours?" [Y/n]... "Katsuki." I grunt. It takes a moment for him to respond "So, Katsuki, what are you doing?" "Reading." "Man, didn't think someone could get so angry reading." I roll my eyes "Whatever.". "So, where do you go to school at?" "U.A." I continue to stare at my arm. "Bastard?" I quirk an eyebrow when I don't get a response. "I'm not too far from U.A." "You're not?" "No. Do you want to meet up?" I stare at the words. "Why not." I scoff slightly.

We decided on meeting at the mall. I'm currently getting ready. I don't know about how I feel with meeting my soulmate, especially after we've just started talking. I sigh, taking a quick look at myself in my mirror before quickly heading out.

[Y/n]'s POV

I walk down the road, sifting through my phone as I do so. I turn off my phone and stuff it into my pocket, looking up as I approach the front entrance of the mall. "Hey, I'm here." I say quietly as I enter the building. I get the tickle. "I'm almost there." I read. "I'll be in the cafeteria." I state as I walk to the cafeteria.

When I arrive, I locate a random empty table and sit down, taking my phone out again and playing [M/g].

Some time passes, and I get the feeling, looking at my arm "I'm here. Which one's you?". "Tall, [H/c] hair, [F/c] T-shirt, and black basketball shorts." I say under my breath as I stand up, looking around and turning my phone off. I walk slowly around continuing to look.

I feel the tickle and look at my arm. "Oi." is all it reads. I look up, before quickly looking back down "yeah that's him. Great.". 'I guess he found me.' I think, crossing my arms.

After a second, a boy with spiky ash-blonde hair approaches me. "[Y/n]?" He scrunches up his nose, eyeing me up and down. "Katsuki." I lean down slightly. "Hm." Katsuki tips his head up, his eyebrows furrowing. I chuckle "Here, sit down." I gesture to a table, sitting down. Katsuki grunts and sits on the seat adjacent to mine.

"Keepin' your asshole-ish attitude, I see?" I lean over the table a bit. He scoffs "Whatever". I chuckle again "Y'know, you're a lot cuter than I expected." I hum. "Psh. You had low fuckn expectations for me??" Katsuki asks. "No, and that's the thing." I smirk. "Tch." I can see him blush "Whatever, I'm not even cute.". I reach over and poke his nose "Well I think ya' are~". He blushes brighter, leaning away from me, "Yeah, yeah.".

     "Well... You already asked me where I went to school at. Where do you go, eh?" Katsuki asks, muttering something afterwards but I don't care enough to check, his sneer staying present. "Ketsubutsu." I answer, tapping my fingers on the table. "Eugh." Katsuki sighs. "Well, [Y/n], the hell's your quirk??" He asks. "Vitality stealing. Yours?" My finger tapping becomes more rhythmic. He stares at me for a moment "Explosion.". I nod "Cool." in false fascination, as I had already known most things just from his name.

  We talk about a lot of stuff, and it's fun. I expected our hangout to be awkward, due to reasons. However, we had a good time. Or, well, at least I had a good time.

     "Well, I had a grand time, Katsuki." I smile as I stand up, stretching. "yeah..." He stands, staring at the ground. "Hm. What are you doin' tonight?" I don't want our time together to end now. "Nothing." He looks up at me. "Well... Want to sleep over at my place..?" I ask hesitantly. "Yeah sure." He looks away from me, probably in attempt to subtly hide his face from me.

  "Alright, follow me." I give him a warm smile before turning and walking off to the nearest exit of the mall. I can only assume Katsuki is following me.

     I unlock the door, entering and stepping aside to allow Katsuki to enter. He looks around as I close and lock the door. "Welcome." I state as I turn from the door. "Right... It looks decent." Katsuki hums, walking about slowly. I chuckle "Thanks. Wanna see my bedroom?" I ask. He turns to look at me "sure." he mutters.

We both walk to my room. Once we arrive, I swing open the door, stepping in. Katsuki walks in, gazing around my room in what I can only assume is awe. After a second of Katsuki stepping around a bit, his eyes tracing every inch of my bedroom interior, he turns to look up at me. I smile and reach out, ruffling his hair. He smiles. It's an awkward smile, and it's not very soft, but I can tell it's genuine and that makes my smile warmer.

Me and him head to the bed and I sit on the edge of it, while Katsuki sits beside me. I decide to make the first progression move and wrap an arm around him, closing my eyes. He tenses up for a second, before leaning a bit of his weight on to me, whilst muttering a small "fuckin' idiot.."

  I smile, even though we had just met, this feels right, very enjoyable. Probably because we're soulmates, that'd explain it pretty damn well. Katsuki leans even more weight into me, his eyes closing as he relaxes fully. I trail my hand up and begin to toy with his hair. "It may be a bit early but is it safe to say I love you?" I ask. "Yeah yeah, sure." He hums quietly "I love you too. That isn't final, though." he mutters. I chuckle sheepishly.
