Do you hate soulmate AUs with a burning passion? Do you like them, but you also like to think about how screwed up society would actually be if that was a thing? Were you just wondering why a group roleplay has such a romance private roleplay kind of title? If any of these apply, or you're curious for some other reason, you should keep reading.
basic premise:
In an alternate world where you and your soulmate share injuries, from bruising to scars, nothing is considered more important than finding and marrying your soulmate. Religions condemn relations outside soulmates, parents harm their children so that they have unique scars so they can find their soulmates easier, and even the government punishes people who enter into long term relationships with people who aren't their soulmates under the Red String Laws. These punishments take the form of being fined for everything from getting a place together, to having a child. However, some people don't agree with this system. Mostly college students, really. And so, in a show of freedom and rebellion against the system, they do the only thing they can do: They form a club.
This is pretty much a slice of life taking place at a college, all the characters are part of a club which wants more rights for those without soulmates. As a result, pretty much every single member of this club would prefer not to marry their soulmate, or for some other reason disagrees with the system. Maybe they're a gay girl whos soulmate turns out to be a guy, or their parents intentionally scarred them so they could find their soulmate easier. Whatever the reason, they know that the system is broken, and they'll do what it takes to bring it down, or at least do their best to while also balancing school, work, and relationships.
