-------
This was originally recommended when it first finished back in October, but with the expansion of the Winter Ball chapter from McHanzo week and a brand-new bonus chapter, it’s definitely worth recommending again. The new material keeps the same lighthearted tone as the original story, with plenty of humor and highschool antics, plus a bit of an extra mystery that indicates the author may not be quite done with this AU. -Tev
