"If I leave before you

And I walk out alone

Keep your hands to yourself

When you follow me home

I don't want love

I don't want love"

-From "I Don't Want Love" by The Antlers

You would turn eighteen at exactly 1 am, on the dot. You had set up a mirror on your bed, aimed straight at your upper arms.

12 seconds to go...

You wondered which arm it would appear on. That isn't what really mattered, of course.

7 seconds...

You wondered if you could tell if the person was average or ordinary by just the symbol alone.

3...

2...

1...

The silence in your room suffocated you. Your heart sank into the pit of your stomach.

It looked like a hand with the index and middle finger twisted together. You knew that symbol. You'd seen it every damn day.

Gojo Satoru. Your soulmate was Gojo Satoru.

The weight of your fate crushed you. This was even worse than the outcome you had feared the most. You had prayed for an ordinary person, someone who could whisk you away from this world of curses and responsibilities. You just wanted someone who could offer you the normal life you so desperately craved.

Instead, fate had bound you to the most powerful sorcerer alive, a man whose very existence was a magnet for danger and chaos. A man who would never, ever live an ordinary life.

"No fucking way..." you whispered to yourself, shaking your head frantically as though you could just simply deny what was seared into your right shoulder. You couldn't accept this. You wouldn't accept this.

You knew what you had to do. Your clan was skilled in concealment techniques and, with a bit of effort, you covered the mark on your right shoulder, and created a false mark on your left. It was a simple sun, unremarkable in every way. The perfect lie you could craft to fool your family, the world, and maybe even yourself.

The symbol could belong to anyone. Anyone but Gojo Satoru, who had been showing off his mark since his 18th birthday last year.

When the next morning came, your parents' faces fell at the sight of the ordinary sun on your left shoulder.

"Oh, I was hoping you'd get a powerful sorcerer," your mother had never sounded more disappointed, "Someone like that nice Satoru boy." You hid a wince.

Your father crossed his arms, "Are you sure you want to leave our world behind for some ordinary man?"

You shrugged, acting like the decision was out of your hands. "I can't drag an ordinary person who can't even see curses into our world," you replied.

Your parents agreed and, without much more resistance, you headed out to a world where everyone was oblivious to the existence of curses.

A world you had always wanted to be a part of.
