oh hey I knew there had to be an upside. hello, you. bringing upside to all my sporting disappointment. never leave me. ~clings~

I feel like I can't really articulate everything I love about this, but... Leo being selfish and unhelpful and kind of shit at compromise, and Pep blackmailing him into acting like a human being at practice at least, and Xavi refusing to deal with Villa's problems, and Villa. Villa. I love him.

and yeah. let's not do it again.

oh god. there's so much i love about this. i mean, obviously messi but davvviiiddd. i love the way you write him. him poking messi to get him to talk. and finally. what i always love about your fics is the dialogue. everything seems to natural and just. lovely.

once again, love it.

awwwww I love this. I love how Villa just sorta puts up with Leo (except when he tries to punt him off on Xavi, hahaha) because he's a sweetheart. and this is off topic, but I love the Xavi part when they're like--

“I’ll owe you forever.”

“You already owe me forever.”

also, I love how at the end Messi admits he likes hearing Villa talk more. that was really sweet.

so yeah, I am in love with this and it was really great.

omg only just got a working computer to be able to read/respond to this, but omggg this was great. love love love how pep has the ability to get him to talk. how true is that?! you know? so true.

i love how leo not talking helps leo but kind of hurts villa, because villa just likes having him around to talk to. hearts in my eyes.
