contents Kac and Wakimoto introduced the admissible highest weight representations in order to classify all modular invariant representations of the Kac--Moody algebras. For the Kac--Moody algebra $A_1^{(1)}$ the string functions of admissible representations are allowed to have certain rational levels and were realized by Ahn, Chung, and Tye as the characters of the generalized Fateev--Zamolodchikov parafermionic theories. For the $1/2$-level string functions, we present their mixed mock modular properties as well as elegant mock theta conjecture-like identities involving two mock theta functions from Ramanujan's Lost Notebook. In addition, we demonstrate that the negative level string functions can be evaluated in terms of false theta functions.
