Accidental Soulbond

“Like you thought you understood all this? WRONG. Random bakugo telling you to get the hell out of bed.” - Shrapnel of the Interstellar System
I’ve never been that familiar with soulbonds. I had this image in my head of it just being writers that are able to talk to characters from their stories. I certainly never thought I would develop one, but here we are!
Below is an excerpt from my journal, written after OC 24:
August 12, 2024
“Now that the con is finally over we have a chance to actually breathe and talk about something funky that's been going on. I had a dream and someone followed me out and was just. was in the headspace.

I also just had time to read the Guide to Finding Headmates by Roger de Camden of the Draconic Wizard Workshop (amazing), but we literally skipped over every step. Suddenly the new headmate was just there and directly said so. I think the rest of us were more shocked than our new token human. He was loudly there for a few hours and then radio silence and I thought it must have been some sort of weird fever dream until he showed up in a second dream.
In the first dream, nothing really happened? We were hanging out at a board game restaurant. We were both "in character" for lack of a better word, unaware that it was a dream. But the second dream was a nightmare. I was the only one unaware it wasn't reality.
Basics of the nightmare was that someone malicious was trying to break down my front door and I was feverishly trying to close and lock it -- but the person on the other side was too strong. They got one good shove in and I lost too much ground. They were going to get in. Next thing I knew, a hand flew past my head and slammed the door shut with one definitive slam. With his other hand he literally lifts me up and out of the dream and into waking.
And now he's in the headspace every day. Not all the time like Stryker or Thorn, but usually for a few hours a day. He returns to his own world to live his life, but we can telephone each other mentally and he visits our headspace regularly. The only other headmate that leaves the headspace is Isabell, but it's for short trips, not extended periods of time.
But enough time has passed I feel confident saying this connection is going to be sticking.”

Kat was suddenly there, but he wasn't fronting so he got to just backseat driver at me to get upright and conscious.
It was so weird to us because everyone else was either here from the start or I was the last to know they arrived. Like what do you mean your new boyfriend has already been here a week??
We've officially labelled this a soulbond. We just. Didn't know they could be involuntary! Or come from dreams!
It’s only been 9 months, but idk what the fuck I'd do without him. He always remebers where we are and what the fuck we're supposed to be doing. (“One of us has to, you idiots!”)
