;-; nooooooo. But ugh, so true about the ignored thing. boo :/
because he’s her brother and brothers don’t do that
truth
And Louisa doesn’t know how, but before she even realizes it, Eugénie’s there, and Caroline’s there, and Sabrina and Marie-Laure and Gaëtane, and they’re all lying like sardines across two hotel beds, as if they were throwing a Les Bleues recuperation party
This is so so so so true of women athletes. No really, you just brought back high school and college for me and omg how are you so perfect? This is amazing
“I said I didn’t know; I was too busy dating the next Louisa Nécib,”
OMG. OMG. :3333333 v;lkdjfgsdlfkgjdklgjsd;gkljdfgkjdslgkjdfs;gjsdflksd;lkdlkgsdf;ljsdf;gkldsf;lkjdsf;klj *FLAILING*

hahahahahaha j/k you're already getting all of that. And it's not due til half way through July so uh... start it now and see if you finish it by then? I just signed up.... would have slashed Kompany, but there are not enough jazz cds, fireplaces, and sheepskin rugs in Belgium to contain the greatness that in Vincent Kompany

at first i didn't know too much about louisa, either, but distira talked about her for aaaaages, and so now i'm kind of in love with her. lol i didn't really have much of a say in the matter.
anyways. thanks so much for the comment! i really didn't expect anyone to read this fic, so it really made my day to learn that someone had, haha. :)

all it really does is make her think that even though female athletes can achieve so much in a world where they’re mostly ignored, maybe she can’t, and maybe she won’t ever be able to.
so i really love this, how it's not about the greater issue~ of women's sports, it's about louisa not feeling like she's good enough, and that's just heartbreaking because girl is a straight up baller, y'all. AHEM, but anyway, love.
ELODIE THOMIS OMFG YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS i'm so glad you're using her, aldskjfasdf p e r f e c t, how she brings louisa dinner and then this, “When I was younger, I wanted to be a bird when I grew up.” GIRL YOU CAN BE ANYTHING YOU WANT WHEN YOU GROW UP, YOU PERFECT HUMAN BEING
they cover her locker with edited photos, her head on Zidane’s body, Zidane’s head on hers. They even get a new training kit for her, number ten with Zidanette on the back.lmfajajajaja dead. if i was better at photoshop i would try to recreate this but that would be a disaster/i'm on someone else ( ... )
