Jameson wasn't sure what compelled him to observe the stranger skipping stones alone at the lake, nor what drove him to approach him. After all, Jameson was a man of routine, finding his mundane schedule therapeutic for his quest to remain on the straight and narrow of sobriety. Even the slightest wrench in his way threw him off balance. But who knew that one detour in time, a man by the name of Liam, was all he needed for his road to healing. --Ambys 2022 NA winner--

Sounds simple enough...right? It isn't. (onc prompt #69 | when music becomes a way to communicate no words could compare)

Isaac Kirk's world comes to an abrupt halt when he finds out his Soulmate Mark isn't identical to that of Jamie Ryan's; his best friend and the guy he's been in love with all his life. Isaac's mark is also in COLOUR, which is an even worse fate, because it's rumoured that people with coloured marks don't even get to have soulmates at all. But fate has different plans for Isaac Kirk, and perhaps he might get a happy ending better than he could have ever imagined. - Roses are red, Violets are blue, Isaac thought he'd never get to have even one Soulmate, never mind two. - Copyright © 2018 Viano Oniomoh All rights reserved.
