Summary: Thirteen years ago, Lan Zhan came to Germany to study classical music and found his first true friend.
Ten years ago he returned to Shanghai, heartbroken after a horrifying accident left Wei Ying with life-changing injuries and destroyed their friendship and budding romance.
Today, he comes back to Germany - to teach, not to study. But when he and Wei Ying meet again by sheer chance, he realizes he has much to learn after all.
(The main story is complete with chapter eight - additional oneshots may be added in the future)
Kay's comments: This story is such a delight, because I love modern AUs but I'm so tired of modern AUs set in America. Instead, this story is set in Germany! It's also just a very lovely story that I really enjoyed a lot. There's many parallels to canon and Lexi wrote that the Golden Core transfer inspired this story, since the loss of a Golden Core can be seen as a disability. Wangxian here meet again after ten years apart, both struggling with different things and I really liked how they reconnected and Lan Wangji's POV was just a huge treat. Also a story for fans of Yunmeng Siblings love. Main story is complete, but marked as incomplete.
Excerpt: The door opens.
“Sorry for the delay I hope you didn’t wait too-”
They stare at each other in shock, Lan Zhan and the man at the door.
He has long hair, tied back with a crimson red scrunchie. He is wearing dark blue pants and a matching shirt with a stethoscope hanging around his neck.
Lan Zhan still knows this face like his own. It has lost something of its adolescent softness over the past ten years but it retained a youthful glow, making the man look more like in his twenties than his early thirties.
Doctor Vay is the first one to regain his speech. “Hello, Lan Zhan,” he whispers in Mandarin, looking down at the file lying in his lap and humming with distracted amusement. “Heh. Shawn Lan. I should have known.” Then, he comes in and closes the door behind him.
Lan Zhan’s voice has left him. Suddenly he seems to have forgotten each of the languages he knows. His tongue is glued to his teeth and he knows he looks like a fool, standing there with his lips parted.

Hey remember how Monday was a disaster and I spent the whole day resisting the urge to bite someone?
Well, today the radiator in our office burst and I came in to find my desk was waterfront property.
So the week hasn't improved. Still want to bite someone, but today it's the manufacturer of our heating system.
At least I had the good sense to take Friday off.

Crash Bandicoot: Warped | Friday, 11.03.2023
On this day in gaming, Crash Bandicoot: Warped was released on this date exactly 25 years ago on the original PlayStation console! Produced by both Sony Computer Entertainment and Universal Interactive Studios and developed by Naughty Dog, the 3rd game in the series introduces time travel to the game's plot, with the addition of playing as Crash's sister, Coco for the very first time. Not to mention that the game itself received critical acclaim for its solid improvements on its audio, gameplay, and graphics compared to the previous two predecessors.
P.S.: although Warped received several new sequels after it came out over the years, it was directly followed by Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time in 2020 as the official (and canon) sequel.

got caught up in details as tends to happen whenever i try to write fic and my best effort at detective work on the timeline of love for love's sake seems to imply that yeowoon and myungha have been dating for.... maybe about a month tops? when they say i love you for the first time and yeowoon wants to make plans to move in together which is. well. i suppose they Are high schoolers
that said there are some blips.... myungha's phone in episode seven says it's october,,,, but they did film in fall 2023 so that's probably just an oopsie. plus whatever's going on with the days thing, plus some minor confusion about final exams / summer vacation timing + yeowoon still in his school uniform for last kiss. its possible im wrong but i dont really think so
