I'm really glad you like Stevie & Xabi, I've never written them as a pairing & I've NEVER written Stevie, but the more I wrote him (in this AU) the more I grew to like him, so thank you for that.
I will warn you about 'Just Hold Me Tight', it is only Fernando/Sergio, with Iker & Cesc (not together) as side characters, but if you do read it, I do hope you enjoy.
Oh wow! So right in the thick of it so to speak, you'll probably get a chuckle out of the 2nd (or maybe its 3rd, I cannot remember now) chapter then. I had family that lived near the City Park area, they are finally moving back into their house now.
Seattle is a nice place to be stuck in, I've never been but I hear good things about it.
I think the set-up is very interesting. Journalism!AU allows for interesting plot developments imo, and, since I know nothing about Detroit, I'm curious to learn something about the city. As a European I always think it's interesting to learn about the US through fic, which you invariably do when most of the writers are American.
Your characterizations are fantastic as always. Fernando is perfect when he defends his home town, so bitchy and in-your-face! And Sergio's arrogance and quick-wittedness is very fitting, too. Although I have to agree, there's no way Sergio could have started to work his journo magic during this first dinner...
The whole Steven/Xabi situation seems very intriguing to me. They both seem quite likeble and decent in this (maybe more so than Fernando and Sergio), and I'm very curious how Steven will go from devoted boyfriend (he's so cute with Fer in the first scene!) to Xabi's lover.

I had such fun writing Fernando & Sergio in this 1st chapter, I would say more about them as characters but I fear that would spoil the upcoming chapters for you.
As far as Stevie & Xabi goes, well........you see. I think you'll begin to guess in the 3rd chapter, if not the 2nd what's going to happen.
this is really lovely, and very interesting. I'll deffo bring the popcorn to the drama I suspect will irupt during Sergio & Xabi's stay in Detroit. I have a feeling that Stevie is going to mess up first, i don't know why, i just do. per usual, i look very much forward to this story, and to fall in love with detroit as i did with new orleans.
A brilliant opening to a fic I'm very excited about now. Love teh setting and all the personal knowledge you've run through it - altough as a Mets fan, lay off a bit yeah? we've got it hard enough, ha!
Anyway can't wait to see how this develops, Stevie and Xabi seem so nice to start it'll be interesting to see that story unfold as for Sergio and Nando, I think Stevie was on to something at the end
ha! Yeah didn't the Mets lose yesterday? (yes I know the Tigers did too) I kid though, my grandmother was a Mets fan & I hate the Yankees, so I couldn't make Sergio a Yankees fan. (you do have Jon Stewart as a fan though)
Thank you for commenting & I hope you continue to enjoy
