The Soulmate? Jamjar?? Meme

So whatever you were doing - sleeping, eating, dying - you've been whisked away to a strange place. Well, no, actually it's a pretty cozy-looking apartment, it has an entire fridge and everything - but it definitely is not where you were. You should not have woken up in this apartment's only bed, along with somebody you've never seen before.

After you stop having hilarious misunderstandings with your bedmate, you may make your way outside only to find: it's pretty nice out here? Very 21st century suburbia. Some of the buildings seem a little out of place, like someone requested a jousting arena and a virtual reality room and the Angel did their best to fit them in-

Wait, back up a second.

The giant angel flying by (white wings, halo, radiance, the works), upon seeing you gawking, will happily inform you that this is your new home, and they brought you here because your soulmate was tragically born in another world. But now you're here together, living peacefully with nothing to stop your love from blossoming!

And no, they won't send you back. You'll be much happier here once you get used to it. Living side by side with your soulmate and being encouraged to get to know them, or get to know them, what else do you need?

Options, because we like options:
1. Soulmates are a known thing. Apply all the soulmate tropes you wish - not seeing color until you meet your soulmate, having your soulmate's name written on your body, etc. You can tell that at least the Angel's claims about this person being your soulmate are true. It doesn't necessarily make things less awkward.

2. Soulmates, what hogwash! Soulmates aren't a thing that everyone knows about and everyone has where you're from. You might believe in them, but you also believed in Santa when you were younger. Or you might think this whole thing is stupid, and your growing attachment to your 'soulmate' is just a coincidence.

[That... could be a problem.]

I can't cook

[ sdlkghsdg giggling ]

I can teach you? ...Probably? It's been a while, but I feel like that's one of those skills you never really lose. Either that or you can just dump a pallet of strawberries on me every now and again.

[ghostfromthemachine]

...assuming there are strawberries here. Which there had better be. I am preemptively absolving myself of all personal responsibility of what I'm going to do to that "angel" if there aren't.

[gemuinemanagement]

What kind of world doesn't have strawberries

[He can get the soulmates thing but that's too much!!]

[ghostfromthemachine]

Right?! Exactly.

[gemuinemanagement]

It would be nice to make food that isn't burned sometimes

[When he says he can't cook, he really means it.]

[ghostfromthemachine]

I think I can do at least that much. I used to be pretty good at it.

[gemuinemanagement]

Thank you
I don't know how to teach anything in return
Except crafts

[ghostfromthemachine]

That's all right. It isn't as though I'm offering without any ulterior motives, after all.

[ hugging her knees and tipping her head to one side ]

What kind of crafts? Aside from the charms, anyway.

[gemuinemanagement]

Jewelry in general
+ I made a sword 1 time

[ghostfromthemachine]

A sw— does that really count as "crafts"?!

[gemuinemanagement]

I made it out of a gemstone
It only works on spirits

[ghostfromthemachine]

That doesn't exactly make it less impressive, Suga-san.

[ so about those compliments. ]

[gemuinemanagement]

Thank you

[Help, he's blushing again. He's going to die.]

[ghostfromthemachine]

...You aren't good with compliments, are you.

[ her tone and expression are for the most part wryly sympathetic. unfortunately for him, the other portion is entirely composed of mischief.

f ]

[gemuinemanagement]

[He shakes his head. He's not used to them, it'd be weirder if he was good with them.]

[ghostfromthemachine]

I'm afraid I have bad news for you.

Friendship bullying is one of my favorite hobbies.

[gemuinemanagement]

[...

Takes a step backward.]

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ asdhsdjghsjdf bursts out laughing and puts her head down on her knees ]

Oh c-come on, it isn't— it's not that bad— it's good for your self-esteem?

[gemuinemanagement]

I don't know how to handle this

[Big confuse?? Unsure???]

[ghostfromthemachine]

I'll be gentle~.

[ wait that

was maybe not a thing she wanted to say to her— her soulmate. who she is stuck in a one-bed apartment with.

...it's fine if she gives absolutely no outward indication that the potential innuendo even slightly crossed her mind, right? right??? it's fine! ]

Though, mm. Joking aside, please tell me if I'm actually being too much. I enjoy going overboard; dragging other people over the side with me, not so much.

[gemuinemanagement]

[Thankfully, Suga is innocent enough that the innuendo flies completely over his head.

He nods, and offers her a small smile. He'll tell her if it's really too much. He may not be used to compliments, but they're not bad.]

[ghostfromthemachine]

[ it is a really strange feeling to realize that someone is somehow more innocent than you, even though he's a teenage boy and you're a baby who has aggressively been avoiding thinking about anything relationship related for most of your life. the internet truly is terrible in its power. ]

Anyway— hopefully they'll have things for you to work with here.

[gemuinemanagement]

I'd like that
Should I make you something

[That seems like the kind of thing you do for your soulmate??]

[ghostfromthemachine]

...ah. Um. If you want, I wouldn't...

[ you can put down the latent tsundere tendencies for five whole seconds, Kaiko. biting the inside of her cheek ]

I'd like that, but don't feel like you have to.
