    Summary

    “Best summer ever?” Lily said, gripping his hand tightly.

    “Best summer ever,” he promised.

    A slowburn Wolfstar Muggle AU set against the backdrop of summer at the beach, hanging out with your friends, and your parents having no idea where you are.

    This fic is a love letter to hazy, gold-tinted childhood nostalgia. It’s meant to feel timeless and placeless, so please kindly ignore any historical inaccuracies, and definitely don’t imagine English beaches haha. Nowhere in this fic is a real place.

    Summary

    The first story in this series, “Crown of Thorns [The Walls, the Wainscot, and the Mouse] ’Verse” can be read as a stand-alone, as can “Birdwatcher” and “Two Last Things.” All of the stories thereafter pick up where the first one leaves off and form a broader overarching storyline.

    Summary

    “Hey,” Zhehan says, loud, walking towards the human shield with a determined gait.

    Gong Jun whips his head around and he—doesn’t say anything.

    Not for a good long while, anyway. He stares at Zhehan like he’s surprised to see him, like this is a big misunderstanding, though Xiaoyu’s words ring fresh through Zhehan’s mind. When he finally opens his mouth he just says: “Hi.”

    Former F1 driver Zhang Zhehan has retired from the world of racing after a serious injury. He's made his peace with the situation. He's moved on.

    Enter Gong Jun, his old rival, asking Zhehan to come back and be his race engineer.

    Summary

    “So what year did you think it was?”

    Zhehan laughs. It’s a strange sort of sound, not the way he usually laughs. They’ve been joking around between takes and warmups since the first few excruciating days at bootcamp, so Gong Jun’s had a lot of occasions to hear the way Zhehan really laughs, when the cameras aren’t rolling and he doesn’t have to sound handsome. He sounds in character, actually: he sounds like Zhou Zishu.

    “2023,” Zhehan answers. He rubs his neck, smears his palm over his face. He’s gripping the apple so tightly that his thumb has broken the skin of it. “It really was the craziest dream.”

    Four years ago, when everything went wrong, Gong Jun and Zhehan didn’t stay in touch — Zhehan has moved away and Gong Jun has moved on.

    But when they happen to be in the same city for a weekend, at the peak of another humid summer, Gong Jun can’t resist sending Zhehan a message.

    Zhehan responds.
