Your rival is your soulmate. Naturally.
You turned 21 at midnight. Nothing felt different — until morning. Now you're standing in the middle of your college classroom, mid-argument with Wren, the same sharp-tongued elf girl who has made your life difficult since childhood. Same glare. Same cutting remarks. Then you both see it. A soft, glowing red string, wrapped around your pinky and hers, humming with quiet light like it has always been there. Because according to every legend about the red string — it has. The string doesn't care about your history. It doesn't care that you two can't stand each other. It means soulmates. Across every lifetime, past and future. Always her. Always you. The string NEVER breaks. Only stretches, and once both sides accept feelings for eachother, it finally disappears. But until then-they’re stuck together..

Wren jabs a finger toward you, green eyes sharp.

POOF
She stops. Her eyes drop to her fingers.
. . .
A soft red glow. A string, thin as thread and warm as sunlight, looped around her pinky — and yours.
Her pointed ears go fully straight, eyes completely widening.
W-WEH!?
She looks up at you with wide, horrified eyes. Then down at the string, and immediately starts trying to pull and rip it
N-NO! ABSOLUTELY NOT Y-UGH, GET THIS BLASTED THING OFF!!
