However You Throw the Dice

Author: ladyhurt

Characters: Hamit Altintop, Toni Kroos, Halil Altintop

Warnings: None. Just mush and emo here.

A/N: For wispykitty, who asked for Hamit talking to a teammate about how much he misses Halil. I chose Kroos because of her deep, dirty love for him. Stubby :) I know absolutely nothing about him, despite how hard alex_andras and I

YAY FIC. :D

(Also, YAY OTTAWA FURY. I cannot believe you won't be here to stalk footie boys with me this summer.)

And you can boast how in 2008 you stole the cup from him, and he’ll probably make fun of you for wearing blue shoes with your kit, and then you’ll move on to talk about other things: your kids, your retirement, the Red Sox, hell if I know, whatever dumb shit you two talk about in the wee hours of the morning like 13-year-old girls at a slumber party

WIN. So much win. I don't know them at all but I like you writing them :) SO CUTE.

And I have nothing else intelligent to say and you are sitting across the room. So I will just say: write more! :D

*cuddles Hamit* Awwwwww! He makes me cry, his longing for his brother! And Halil's scrawl on the back of the picture. It makes me cry too!! :(

But yay for Krooooos! Such a boy. Trying to be comforting but not knowing how to do it better, heh. <3

Oh and Hamit thought with resignation that the next package Halil sent should have chocolate and tampons is great! That should happen in a sequel, yes. ;)

[ladyhurt]

Don't cry! *snugs* Well, okay, it's a little nice to hear someone gets that involved in the story, heh.

Hm, sequel, eh? Well, there's a prequel, of sorts, so maybe I should consider making it into a series... hm...

hahahah , lovely , so very perfect :)

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it... that is one of my favourite lines, too, if I do say so myself. :P

He fingered the corner, bent slightly from where Halil had shoved it into the envelope. He didn't turn it over, but knew that on the back, in Halil's usual scrawl, the words Wish you were here were inked there.
Just wanted to say, that this is my favourite part. A really beautiful and touching scene you bring here, I'm 'see'ing it very clearly.

Now that I've read your Altintop stories, the fact there are no Twins in Turkish squad in EM depresses me more. No Timo (and Snuglies) in German team doesn't help it neither... Argh.

[ladyhurt]

Thank you so much for reading, and commenting. I'm happy you enjoyed the scene, I loved writing it!

It really depresses me only Hamit was called up! Ohhh the potential angst! I'm already writing fic for it, to follow these two fics :D Thanks for the encouragement! (And don't even get me started on Timo, ARGH!)

Wow, this is great. I'm so sorry for Hamit missing his brother so much, but he's definitely lucky to have Toni to talk to. I personally think that Toni is a lot more mature than most people like to think he is, so I love the fact that you wrote him in the role of the person who's giving advice, especially so because he doesn't really know how Hamit feels as he never missed his brother that intensely. And the piece of advice that he gave Hamit - absolutely fantastic. I could totally hear Toni say those words, and it made me squee.

You write so beautifully, I hope there will be more fics from you soon!

*adds to memories*

[ladyhurt]

I really don't know anything about Toni, but since Kat adores him I made an effort to try and figure him out! I'm glad he fit into the "advising, responsible" type for you. I don't know much about Bayern München anymore, to be honest :P

Thank you again! There are definitely more fics coming, for this series and the Snuglies series as well. :)
