We made a Dreamwidth version of the comm a while back just in case LJ completely went to hell, but we kept this one, too. This one still seems to get the most posts/comments, but feel free to post at both :)

Can't say I know that one, but I'm sure someone will. The closest tag I can suggest is "b/j time travel or shared past lives," because sometimes the soulmate thing and the past lives thing line up.

It's not a fic where they're werewolves/shifters, is it? Just asking because that kind of "pull" often features in those fics.

Thank you for the explanation. Does that mean, that there are two parallel comms, and you get to mod both? Goodness, do you still have time to live? Bless you!
I was disappointed to find no “soulmates” tag (didn’t think to look under “imprint”). After seeing in blklizard’s replay how many fics there are with the soulmate premise, can’t help but feel that there should be. You know, just a suggestion, in case you have nothing to do on a rainy Sunday afternoon...

Well, I used to stay pretty on top of tagging posts, and now I'm several months behind on both comms lol, so... *sigh*

I kind of thought there was a "b/j soulmates" tag, honestly, but seems not. I feel like I considered it. Maybe held me back was wondering where to draw the line with what would qualify for that tag (only fics like you described, or fics also where the word is just used to refer to B/J?)... and also the overlap that would exist between a soulmates tag and the past lives one I mentioned (do we need 2? do I combine them?)... I'll think on it :)

Dorothy, Regarding Dreamwidth. It seems to me years ago I made a Dreamwidth account about the time Predec2 (Kim) did. I have no idea how to connect with it, and at the time that I created it, I was very disappointed, because I couldn't make my way through it. How would I connect to it again, Just in case.

Hi Cathy,

I know you can log in to Dreamwidth with OpenID, using your LJ name (for instance). That lets you look around and leave comments, but not post, I think. Maybe if you click on "create an account" and put in the email you think you would have used back then, it will tell you there's an account associated with that email and then you'll just have to change your password? Or else, you could just make a new account, since it's free.

I'm still way more comfortable with LJ, but DW is a nice backup to have.

I made a tag: "b/j soulmates (literal)" lol

Fyi, I can't add any more tags to the Dreamwidth comm, so that tag will only exist here.

And it actually was a rainy Sunday yesterday (at least where I live). :-)
You are awesome! Thank you.
