Wow.
I don't usually like this pairing.
But this has really changed my mind.
Just WOW.
I love how you characterized both Iker and Becks.
Two thumbs up! :D

Hey, thank you! That's really lovely to hear. Those two are v. cute; both olleander and rondaview have written them fabulously.

Stumbled upon this from a fic rec list and... haha saw my own comment from 4 years ago and I can't believe I said that "I don't usually like this pairing" because Beckham/Casillas (or you know, Becksillas) is my favorite pairing now. And I just have to say I absolutely love, love, love this. ♥

omg you wrote Becks!fic! worse, you wrote gorgeous and totally heartbreaking Becks!fic!

i hate your writing skils with a passion ♥

*goes off to read again*

[windsor]

he is so inherently tragic to me! uh, it's kind of lame, but. you know. ♥ plus, your five things meme for becks was so, so fabulous (and equally heartbreaking).

[zauberer_sirin]

i heart Becks very much, in all his simplicity. i see the tragic streak in him, too. he is like a mythic figure or something.

gawd, i loved doing that five things bit. Becks is ridiculously fun to play with (it also appealed to my inner Becks/Victoria shipper, don´t tell)

[windsor]

I know! I feel like he really is a fairly simple person at heart, but sometimes I see pictures of him at twenty-four/five and I wonder how it must be for him, now. What do you have left after exposing so much of yourself to the public?

This is so horrifying to admit, but I really like them. lasdjflksdf, just, they're weirdly cute together - I remember Em pointd out that Full Length & Fabulous ball a while ago; I downloaded it and, oh gosh, the perfect blend of unbelievable crack and sweetness.

Gorgeous. ♥

[windsor]

Thank you!

Hey. I liked this. Again, I've got more to say about the fic and no idea how to say it. So I'll just stick with the fact that I really like this. The way you wrote it, Iker's POV and they way you set it. Most of this fic is written in the way I like to read (the way I want to write).

I'd say good job, but that's lame. So I'll just repeat: I like this. j

(As a side note: your icon! :x Actually, all your icons make me keyboard mash a little, they're fantastic.)

And, you know, thanks. ♥ ♥ ♥ I find 2nd person far too easy to abuse, but it really is the easiest way of writing for me! I love reading other people's fics written that way too, especially yours.

[blue_ant]

(HEART. Thanks. *blush*)

Welcome, as always. ♥ I adore second person, but oddly enough the epic-y thing I'm working on now (which has nothing to do with Spanish footballers thank god) is in third person. And, thank you. I mean, there is just something about your writing that I really like.

[windsor]

(They really are! The Agger one with the reading t-shirt makes me happy. As does this picture of him! I've never seen him so pleased.)

Spanish footballers drive me crazy sometimes, that much I won't deny. But, um, EPIC? *curious!* I think I enjoy second person because I'm the type of person who always connects way too much with one character instead of with plot, narrative themes/structure, that sort of thing. Also, you are far too good to me. :)

[glassbomb]

oh, how fantastic. ♥ i have ridiculous amounts of love for becks and all of his foolishness that i'm not even afraid to admit, and i enjoyed the way you wrote him in this. a lot.

and, your style of writing is always gorgeous.

[windsor]

xabi smirking is the best ever. that set of photos of him were so lovely.

and, you know, ♥ x a lot! i'm always kind of embarrassed about my massive soft spot for him, no matter, like you said, how much stupidity he gets into and that silly voice and the nail polish. :(
