    Summary

    Everything about Professor Lan, from the way he speaks, thoughtful and poignant and never loud— like he was saying I will not raise my voice. If you want to learn, pay attention. It was one hell of a power move, in Hao Mei’s opinion— to the way he dresses, to the way even his gestures have a subtle elegance to them, scream that he is as meticulous as they come.

     
    Which is why it comes as such a shock to Hao Mei when someone in booty shorts appears in the background of Professor Lan’s video.

     

     
    In which Professor Lan's students try to figure out exactly who that person who appears in his video is

    Summary

    “I’m not here to help you with your work,” said Lan Zhan, injecting frost into his voice to deter any further attempts at charm. “I’ll be focusing on my research.”

     

    Wei Ying cocked his head. “Research?” he said.

     

    “Mm. I’m a cultivation researcher, not a department employee. I’m reconstructing the ancient musical cultivation techniques of the Lan clan.”

     

    ___

    Lan Zhan’s new liaison at the Caiyi Municipal Cultivation Department is an enigma – ridiculously talented, yet somehow content with mopping up spiritual pests for barely above minimum wage. Wei Ying is slapdash and irresponsible, and Lan Zhan doesn’t like him at all… but then he meets A-Yuan, who loves music and longs for a piano his father can’t afford.

    Forced into cautious friendship by a four-year-old's music lessons, Lan Zhan soon realises Wei Ying is more than he seems. The single father is a man of many secrets – including, perhaps, the key to Lan Zhan's life's work. And in the meantime, the background resentment in Caiyi Town is rising to dangerous levels…

    Summary

    What if Sokka and Zuko were able to know each other as more than enemies? What if they became confidants and friends through letters without ever realizing who was on the other side? How would that spark of a connection change the course of their lives?

    A spark is a little thing, yet it may kindle the world.
