#me when the possibility of *cauthor* eternal soulmates is on the table: this is peak romance actually

[markantonys]

the implications that show!mat being a hero of the horn has on cauthor have not yet been fully explored! because i'm 90% sure the dragon is also a hero of the horn or hero-adjacent, which would mean mat's and rand's souls are eternally linked to each other in that way. do they get to hang out together in TAR between lifetimes? at the very least, mat would be hanging out in TAR so even though he has a normal non-channeler lifespan and will die before his channeler loved ones, the wondergirls can still visit him in TAR after he dies (rand too if he retains his channeler long lifespan post-TLB idk) and tell him all about how the avimatrandlayne great-grandkids are doing. mat can protect the great-grandkids and all their descendants in their dreams like birgitte does!!!!

also, maybe mat and rand have been born at the same time in other lifetimes too, and will be again! maybe they've saved the world together infinite times! maybe when it's amaresu's soul's turn to save the world, she will call the heroes to fight with her and mat's and rand's souls will show up together as a Battle Couple! maybe the first time mat talks about rand to birgitte in this life she's like "oh i see nothing's changed" "what?" "you're in love with the dragon in every lifetime" "WHAT"

in conclusion, move over birgitte and gaidal, we've got a new pair of Hero Of The Horn Soulmates in town.
