Same, I nearly forgot about it but back then, I was so obsessed with it

ikr, but rereading the latest chapter idk wtf happened

A lot happened. Y'all have to read it whole to get a grasp of the situation now, because explaining it would be a mess to understand it
Or there is one summary somewhere in the comments, I haven't looked at them for a while

The story's deeper than depicted in the first few chapters. When the authors said that the two main characters will be together in many stories, they really meant it in a literal sense. The bond between the protags go way way way way back. There was a revolution, some time travelling, reconciliation with friends etc. it's long winded but all intertwined. Tbh this feels like, if I made two original characters and I loved them so much I can't stop creating fics of them in different universes and settings/plots, but everything was intimately connected and not random
