HIT by Guede Mazaka (NC-17)
Hi, all! I'll be reccing for football RPF this month. There will be a fandom overview up soon, but I'm not quite done with it yet - in the meantime, enjoy the fic, and if you've got any questions, feel free to ask me!
Fandom: FOOTBALL (SOCCER) RPF

Why this must be read: Let's get the caveats out of the way: this is not
guede_mazaka's best writing. It's one of her earlier works and some of the characterization rings very strangely once you get more familiar with canon. The fic is about five years old, and there's no escaping the fact that by now it's pretty outdated. That said, reading it is hands-down the best way to get into football slash. That's how I did it: I started reading and I kept going until the names started to sound familiar. You need absolutely no familiarity with the world of European football to appreciate this fic; there is no football contained within.
Hit is an AU that sort of sprawls out from the initial premise that the characters are all somehow involved in the music industry. I really do mean sprawls; from the introductory novella seven novel-length sequels were spawned. I plowed through them and I loved every last minute of it. Some of the hottest sex scenes I've ever read are contained in this fic, and even now I return to the final spin-off again and again, because I never get sick of reading about David Villa's hopeless attempts to fashion himself into a human being worthy of David Silva's love. I had no idea who any of these characters were when I started reading, but this fic made me know them. More than that, it made me love them. It will make you love them, too.
WARNINGS: contains some mentions of drug addiction and alcoholism, including a relatively graphic description of an overdose. Also, don't start reading unless you have a lot of time to spare. It took me about a week to finish, and I was good for nothing else until I did.

Can't we have our 2006 team back please? Preferably with Jürgen Klinsmann as coach instead of Löw.
