Summary
Children’s hair sometimes changes color as you grow. When he’s young enough for it not to be unusual, but old enough to know he’ll get in trouble for doing something ‘freakish’ again, Harry's hair goes from his father's dark locks to his mother's bright, most-likely-magical red hair.
It changes everything about who he identifies with, who he wants to grow up to be, and who he thinks he is. Instead of having James Potter as his idol, Lily turns out to be a much better influence.
So instead of seeing a scruffy, most-likely-muggleborn boy standing beside him in Madam Malkin's before their first year, Draco only has eyes for the scarlet-haired, green-eyed creature who just walked into his life. Not that Harry will ever notice, given he's trying to simply survive Hogwarts.Story Discord: https://discord.gg/8b7zt5PBHp

Summary
When you're little, your markings are shapeless blobs of color-- innocent, uneducated, happy, excited colors. When you get a little older, a little wiser, your markings take on shapes and symbols that mean something to you, things that reflect your soul. You end up with dozens of them, hundreds throughout your life really, spelling out your personality and exposing your soul on your skin for the whole world to see. Everyone is different, no one can hide.
It makes finding your soulmate easy: your colors suit theirs. Your shapes spell out your love, sometimes literally writing it on your forehead so it's impossible to miss, and impossible to hide from someone your heart belongs to.
...
Kageyama Tobio always knew something was wrong with him. He never had more than five markings before entering Karasuno High School, and they just didn't ever change.
In a world where your soul is visible for everyone to see, how is someone entirely blank supposed to survive?
...
(In other words: someone give Kageyama a hug, I'm so cruel to him)
