This Valentines present is less of a gift and more of a challenge..

I know, it's a random thought. But the translation of DMWR got me wondering "What would change if my characters were German instead of American?" So now you have to suffer like I had through the same thoughts my brain has made up so far, simply because you gave me the idea.

CJ Ackermann was born on August 16, 2002 near Cologne, North Rhine-Westfalia. Their parents Christoffer and Johanna were beyond proud to have them as part of the new family. Though they were officially assigned female at birth, making their name an acronym of their legal name Charlie Josephine. But it was merely for legal reasons, as Johanna and Christoffer did their best to just call them CJ and raise them without forcing any sort of stereotypes onto them. Due to their legally assigned gender however, CJ was unintentionally pushed to grow up more feminine identifying once they started school.

Their brother Aaron, later sister Marie Ackermann was born December 22, 2007, and Henry on April 18, 2013. Shortly after his birth however, the parents broke up and got divorced after Johanna had confronted Christoffer about about cheating on her with one of his colleagues. In the divorce, she was given the house. But she couldn't bear living in it for much longer, so she sold it and moved with her children up north to her mother Helena Schmidt in Lower Saxony.
