Bundeslihaha 2023/24: Bundeslihaus #1

(also posted on my instagram, FeuerVerse)

Here's a Bundeslihaha comic set in the "Bundeslihaus", a reality/variety show where the clubs are put in a mansion to play games and have drama! It's a silly AU concept that might just be canon soon, post-reveal, since they're already doing weird PR shit anyway.

Where some clubs enjoy the spotlight, reclusive Freiburg and "unremarkable" Bochum escape the cameras.

Notes and Transcript below the cut.

Notes

VfL Bochum and Hamburger SV had a fan friendship in the 70s (I'm speculating that it continued at least until the 80s, thus Bochum and Hamburg's 80s hair and HSV's title wins). In Bundeslihaha, they were in a QPR (queer platonic relationship).

Freiburg's reclusiveness comes from the club's lackluster social media presence, as well as its general understatedness.

Bochum may be "die graue Maus" but she is an underground band punk (thanks neonmice for the Bochum music info) who is also a futch/butch lesbian, so she balks at the establishment and publicity.

Not gonna lie, 1980s Hamburg is kinda 😳

PAGE 1

In the Bundeslihaus kitchen…

Bochum expertly does all steps of baking a pizza. Freiburg is left looking in awe and is ordered around by Bochum.

PAGE 2

The pizza is done, laid on the counter. There's Fiege beer on it too. Bochum is eating a slice. Freiburg is grinning while pouring Badenian wine into his glass.

Bochum: (thinking) "How'd he fit that wine in his luggage?"

Freiburg: "You seem really used to baking, Bochum. I barely had to do anything - that's rare, usually I have to do the bulk of the work because no one else would step up. You know how it is with these Bundesligists…"

PAGE 3

Bochum: (leans forward on the table, holding her Fiege beer) "Oh, I know. When you're the oldest club and the only girl, you learn this shit. Most men are shit at cooking, no offense to you."

Freiburg: "None taken."

Bochum: "When I dated Hamburg, basically, I taught him everything he knows."

PAGE 4

Bochum: (pissed, like she's been repeating this a lot to other people, waving her beer around) "I know, I know! 'But Bochum, Hamburg is gay and you're a lesbian!' I know. But we were more than 'just friends'."

Freiburg: "That's cool, it's okay, I don't judge." (then it sinks in that Bochum was with HAMBURG of all people. He's dumbstruck, imagining old Hamburg and Bochum with long hair in a kiss) "Please go on."

PAGE 5 (flashback)

A younger Hamburg, with a huge mullet and a mustache, has one hand around Bochum's shoulder. He looks at her affectionately but with the cockiness of a successful club. Bochum, who has short, spiky hair, smiles at Hamburg.

Bochum: (narration) "He was young, rich, spoiled, and high on titles. Can you imagine?"
