If you're going to have a passage about something that happened in the past, usually just the first sentence or two is enough of a transition in past perfect tense, and then I'd use straight past.
Oh, that`s interesting because that`s totally what confused me in reading other fics since in German grammar you can`t jump tenses in a passage that by content belongs together.
