Soulmate AU where the last thing your soulmate will say to you is on your wrist, so you don't know who your soulmate is until you're about to lose them.
Elaboration: Many people will choose to never even look at their arm, wrapping it in something called a wrist swathe, which is a piece of fabric designed to cover your soulmate's last words on your wrist.
Imagine having words like "Goodnight, I love you," on your wrist, and so your blood runs cold every time they say those words. Imagine having "I think someone's in the house," on your wrist, and so you know that they will die a scary death. Imagine having a child whose wrist says "Did you finish your math homework?" on their wrist, and you are heartbroken that their soulmate will die or leave them so young. Imagine having "What's your name?" on your wrist, so you know you'll never even get to know your soulmate before you lose them.
