title going home is not the same as coming back (victory and defeat)
prompt .004 Spain
pairing none, really.
summary Sergio's experiences with the national team have been new and old, victorious and bitter, but they are always Spain.

notes i'm not sure whether or not Fernando played in that England game. i do know, however, that Iniesta

This is just...

Beautiful doesn't cover it.

[heyaeroplane]

thank you so much

[sunlight_dust]

oh this was just so beautiful. it was like living all those years through Sergio's eyes and it was so powerful.
fue como volando través del universo.

all of them were absolutely lovely, though I'd be kidding myself if I didn't admit that 2008 holds my strongest sentiments.

i love it. i love you. i love Spain. I love Sergio.
<333

fue tan maravilloso escribir, llegar a ser Sergio como eso.

2008, oh my god. the euros. the most amazing game, the most amazing feeling. i hope i can put even just half of what i felt at the time into this!

i love you! and spain and sergio, which for me are rapidly becoming something close to synonymous.

the way you write them just. is them to me. ohmygod i love this i love this i love this you are magical.

[heyaeroplane]

i'm so glad. i want them to be real, you know? i'm so so glad you like this, it really means a lot

it's amazing one to me at this very beginning of the whole brand new year, with the scene of everything covering by snow out of window. it's more emotional, and in such a special way. I'm in tears. i think of those days Spain won the title of Euro Champion. and just Sergio was in that special t-shirt he made for Antonio Puerta stood/run/jumped in all of his teammates in red national team jersey. he was amazing! and thank you so much for sharing. happy new year!

[heyaeroplane]

mmm thank you so much for reading! the euros were literally my favorite natoinal team moment in recent memory, so lovely to write about.

(i'll be praying for another moment like that at WC2010!)

[atenism]
