(Hamilton AU where soul mates can hear each others thoughts.) John thought that possibly, despite all the incessant two a.m. ramblings and winning inner arguments, his soulmate couldn't possibly be that bad. Sure, he seemed aggressive and outgoing, much more so than John, but was that really a drawback? All his life, the world around him, even his own worthless bag of tits of a father, had treated him as if he were nothing, a piece of scum. He never really knew if it was all true. But the voice in his head, the one he could always hear but never reply to, marveled about how great a person he must be. Praised him, even. It was new.
