modern au hsr. composer!dan heng x soloist!gn!reader.
by popular opinion aka me and 12 other people i’m gonna write this concept for dan heng kinda basing on his en va in terms of music production lol:
main idea: modern au + reincarnation au (slapping this on every xianzhou character damn) + college au + musician au formatted into movements like many musical works, usually with 3 or 4. it’s possible to have more than that.
inspo: cloud atlas, 10ish yrs of playing piano, and minoring in music. i was gonna write this for another fandom until i deactivated from there lmaooo.
past lives commonly featured reader who loves to sing and dan heng who’s talented at composing. dh fell in love with reader’s voice that he promised that he’ll make a song for them as a form of a love letter. it was never finished, rather each of his past lives have a piece of the composition in his mind. present!dh has them all from his dreams, feeling inspired to put it together like puzzle pieces for his theses.
present!reader’s a child prodigy and a winner of a televised talent show competition, so like similar to jackie evancho from agt if you know who she is. their solo career ended by a certain incident and stopped singing altogether. the grief and trauma caused them to be scared of getting back into it. the avoidance caused them to move to another city to start over and get away from that life, only for dan heng to unknowingly pull them back into it. and something feels oddly familiar about him that they can’t figure out.

One thing I love about the musical, yet is quite underrated, is Alfred and Professor Abronsius’s relationship. I think they have a lot of potential, beside the comedic aspect of them being amateur vampire hunters who failed at their job.
When you think about it, Alfred and Abronsius have a lot in common. They’re both alone, both friendless, both bookish, both seen as a bit weird.
Alfred is most probably an orphan (during “He, Ho, He” he basically says no one would miss him if he were to disappear), so it’s likely he has no friend and no family. I think he lives alone with just books for companions and Abronsius as his only friend and authority figure. He’s shy and insecure, yet longs to be noticed and understood and loved (he quickly fell in love with Sarah and was ready to follow her anywhere, also how he latched on when Krolock gave him attention during “Vor dem Schloss”).
As for Abronsius, he’s mocked by his pairs who think of him as a fool (in the movie, he’s called “The Nut”) so it’s likely he’s alone as well as he’s mocked, seen as an outcast, an odd bird.
In short, everyone think of Abronsius as a fool.
Alfred? Alfred thinks he’s brilliant.
He probably stayed after his classes to talk to Abronsius or even offers his help to gather his stuff, and they ended up bonding over their shared interests, one of them being vampires.
Granted, I don’t think the nature of their interest toward vampires is the same. I headcanon Alfred as secretly fascinated by them and having a bit of a dark side, a thirst, a longing that’s less noticeable than with Sarah, but he is as fascinated by vampires as he is scared by them, something Abronsius probably doesn’t know about and wouldn’t understand.
Because that’s the thing about Alfred and Abronsius. While I do believe they are genuinely fond of each other, they’re not always on the same page, they don’t understand each other very well.
Abronsius can sometimes be seen as coldly academic. He dislike showing emotions, he’s all for logic but no emotions. He often ignores Alfred or dismiss his feelings, which cause Alfred to feel misunderstood and neglected. Abronsius often gets too distracted or preoccupied with his studies he can ignore Alfred or lacks patience with him (something Krolock definitely noticed in “Vor dem Schloss” and uses to his advantage, to try to lure Alfred to his side. During the song, he mentioned Abronsius and how Alfred should leave him, how his mentor doesn’t understand him and his feelings, his wants. He focuses his attention on Alfred and Alfred… can’t help but be fascinated, at least curious).
It doesn’t mean Abronsius doesn’t care. Of course, it depends of the actor portraying the Professor, but I do believe he cares for Alfred, despite not always showing it and in spite of the way he can treat him sometimes. In some versions of “Sie Irren Professor”, he pushes Alfred behind him as if to protect him from Krolock’s taunt/temptation. In another version of the musical (Kentaur?), Abronsius is looking for Alfred at the end, which mirrors the opening scene and humanises the Professor.
In short, Alfred and Abronsius are two lonely and odd birds who found each other, who enjoy each other’s company, yet they can’t always understand each other. That’s the tragedy of their relationship.
Alfred and Abronsius deserved better, yet… it’s all of this which make their relationship so interesting, with a lot of potential!

"Hello---," Hansol calls out as she closes the door behind her upon entering the Establishment. She had heard of a new store opening, but with everything going on she hadn't been able to make the time to come and visit. Itadori Eiden---Itadori Yuuji's brother. They aren't blood related, but that didn't matter any. Yuuji had found a family here and she is so glad that's the case.
When she turns around, she's greeted by ASSORTMENT of different toys. "Oh!" When she heard of 'yeah he sells adult toys', she didn't exactly know what she was walking into. Yi Hansol wasn't naive to the point she'd have no idea what ADULT TOYS entailed, but she supposed she didn't expect it to be out in the open (She's never been to a sex toy shop after all.)
She can feel her face hot as she lowers her gaze, trying to look everywhere BUT at the toys. She is curious though. Some of them looked....intricate.
"Ah---HI!" She greets when she finally spots the store owner, "I came---uh, I came in to drop some of these off for you!" She says, handing Eiden a gift basket of assorted handmade pastries.
"My name is Yi Hansol and my establishments are NokNok Cafe and Aja Dojang. both in the Cotes ward. Please come visit when ever you're there."

Prologue Part 2.
Monsters like to wander the dark.
Luffy knocks on a wooden door. Law opens it. Those little actions are the beginning of everything that is to come.
Hey there~ Decided to draw something in my usual style! I really like doing the shading. And hair. I really like hair.
Anyways, I've wanted to draw this scene for a while now. I will probably be drawing more scenes in the foreseeable future. XD
