    Summary

    Written for this genius prompt at footballkink2 on Livejournal: Lionel Messi is, in fact, an alien.

    Bonus points to the press, for once.

    (Not in a Star Trek/Wars kind of way, more like in a "Le Petit Prince" way, that strange mix of serenely self-aware but as inexperienced in this place and this body as a newborn foal)...

    Summary

    "Yeah. Hey, I knew you'd get it, Leo. I knew."

    No I don't, Leo wants to say, I don't understand at all. Waiting isn't really waiting, not when you can still play. He doesn't say it, though. Because he knows the response by now, knows the looks. Like he's lying, or worse, like he isn't; stretched patience, as if he's that one kid who still believes in fairy tales.

    (Cesc, Gerard and Leo, from La Masia to England and back to Barcelona.)

    Summary

    It's not like Cesc expects things to be the same as they were eight years ago - he's optimistic, not naive - but he definitely had hopes of old friends being pleased to see him. Being back at Barcelona should be easy. It isn't.
