Fics like Too Sweet

Daphne Langford loves a good story - why else would she choose to study English at the University of Oxford? However, the freedom of third year finally allows her to extend her degree to a form of art she's been waiting to explore: music. After a night out gone wrong, enter Andrew, a cynical but driven postgraduate student with a passion for politics, mythology and all of the juicy theoretical expertise she needs to bring her thesis to life. Thinking they'll never meet again, fate just so happens to put Andrew right in Daphne's path... as her thesis supervisor. Using music and lyrics to express their true feelings, will the 'whiskey-glass-half-empty' singer and the driven optimist allow themselves to cross the boundary between musical allegories and reality, or are the smoke and mirrors offered by the whimsical city of gleaming spires too perfect of an illusion to hide behind? After all he's been through, she just might be "too sweet" for him... (I hope this can be the dry humour, dark academia teacher/student dynamic fic of your dreams - pls enjoy reading as much as I enjoy writing it xox)
