#the split: barcelona

[lilgillybean]

[she-is-27-i-checked]

I just watched The Split: Barcelona.

There is a VERY hot middle-aged Spanish woman in it playing opposite my beloved, Nicola Walker.

They barely interact. They both have other love interests.

There is ABSOLUTELY no reason to ship it...

And yet...

My very reasoned argument for why you should is below the cut.

[lilgillybean]

Nicola Walker popping up in February the same slightly random person she's always been...in a new play 🧩

Look what I found, in the Christmas issue of Radio Times I brought back from the UK! I didn't even know that would be in there. I'd just always wanted to own a Christmas Radio Times. Lo and behold... an interview with Nicola Walker!

Watching The Split: Barcelona like

Anyway, I have THOUGHTS.

There is NO WAY Christie wouldn't have come back from NY for Hannah. He has been in love with her since he was a teenage, he never got over her, but we're meant to believe he was just like, "lol no your family is too much"?! I don't fucking think so.

Liv was annoying in the series and honestly, she's even more annoying in the special. I would have much rather have had it been say, Nina's wedding to someone she loved since she got a weak storyline that offered no character growth anyway.

How were Nathan and Hannah OK with Liv, who is like 20, getting married?! All the shit they've been through themselves and seen and it's just like, "Yeah, this is fine."

Speaking of Nathan: didn't we already resolve all this "I'm having a midlife crisis and I still love Hannah but I'm with Kate now" stuff at the end of s3? If Nathan was going to be there, a better storyline would be him and Hannah having to come together to try and convince Liv to call of the wedding.

I get that Tillie and Vinnie never really had any storyline or even dialogue in the series, but it was still a pretty weird move to just have them backpacking (?) and then Facetiming but we don't see them.

While I'm sure in 2024 vicars do have sex outside marriage, I find it pretty hard to believe the Church of England would be happy if a vicar got a woman who wasn't his wife pregnant. I mean, Glen seemed very nonchalant that Rose didn't want to get married and it was weird.

That whole Archie having a fake fiancee plot point was just plain weird, very Hallmark movie-esque and frankly, made no sense; why, exactly, would Alvaro want his secret mistress at his son's wedding under the guise of her being engaged to another man?

I know that a lot of the law stuff has always been very sketchy factually, but English solicitors just instantly knowing how to navigate the Spanish legal system was farcical.

I generally think Abi Morgan is a great writer - I loved s1 and s2 of TS, although s3 made me go hmm in a good few places - but the writing on this was not it. One of the only moments I really liked was the scene between Archie and Hannah at the end where she's talking about feeling insecure and sacred, despite me obviously not being for their relationship.

Anyway, I spent the whole thing thinking up a way I can make a fix-it fic where Christie comes back into Hannah's life with a good reason why he didn't come back and I might have the germ of an idea... (Also, definitely still gonna finish my canon continuation incase anyone might be wondering.)

If Ivan does end up joining Hajduk and Luka decides to end his career in Dinamo, we would have another el clasico to look forward to.

Seems like they love playing for rival teams <3

Because for a limited time only, we're offering return flights from Paris to Barcelona for a jaw-dropping €29! Yes, you read that right – that's not a typo, it's a travel miracle!

Here's why you can't miss this epic flash sale:

Paris and Barcelona: the ultimate European dream duo: From the Eiffel Tower's romantic embrace to the Sagrada Familia's sun-drenched spires, these two cities are a symphony of sights, sounds, and flavors.

"This deal is so good, I even convinced my grandma to come with me! We're going to have the time of our lives exploring these incredible cities together." – Emily, Madrid

So, what are you waiting for? Book your tickets now and:

Wander the cobbled streets of Montmartre.

Gaze in awe at the Sagrada Familia's stained-glass kaleidoscope.

Get lost in the artistic haven of Picasso Museum.

Savor the smoky goodness of jamón ibérico at a local tapas bar.

Dance the night away to the infectious rhythms of flamenco.

This is your chance to create memories that will last a lifetime, all for a price that's practically unbelievable. Don't miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity – book your €29 Paris-Barcelona tickets today!

Remember, this flash sale is only valid for a limited time, so act fast!

hands - a.putellas x reader

warnings : none !

summary : alexia and reader are in a relationship hidden from the media. reader is a famous singer and asks alexia to have a small feature in the music video of her worldwide hit.

masterlist

you were sat in your studio with your management team , discussing options for your latest hit ‘i’m yours’. the song had gone insanely viral, reaching number one across the world.

‘what ideas do you have for your music video’ your manager asks.

‘i want someone in it’ you say, picturing the scene in your head.

— —

you had shot all of the scenes you needed in the music video except from one clip that would be split into two and repeated throughout the music video. the rest of the clips consisted of clips of your bare back in the shower, hands raking through your hair, as well as clips of you lip syncing in a pool in the nighttime. it was needless to say that the song was a suggestive song, and you knew as soon as your team started discussing a music video that you wanted her in it.

— —

you had been spotted at one barcelona women’s game, dressed in a barcelona shirt with a puffer coat on top layered with a scarf, no one knew what was on the back of your shirt.

your appearance at the game had been out of nowhere and fans were slightly confused why your were there, since you were born and lived in england.

— —

‘ale i want you in my music video’ you say, straight up. as soon as you say it you are terrified for the reaction of your girlfriend.

alexia slightly raises her eyebrows, your stomach is slightly uneasy.

‘you want me in your music video?’ she repeats back as you nod.

‘i need your hand to be in it, nothing else, just your hand.’ you day, watching her face shift with curiosity.

‘what will i be doing with my hand?’ she says, unsure of what to say.

‘i’ll show you the inspiration.’ you say, swiping through your phone to a video you had seen which had sparked an interest in you.

alexia furrowed her eyebrows as she watches the video.

it was a short clip.

just a hand moving lightly up a neck, with the collarbone visible.

‘si, i will do it.’ she says, smiling as she sees your eyes light up with happiness as you hug her.

you knew that alexia was not quite ready to fully announce their relationship, but the both of you had been having discussions of how to make subtle hints and hidden messages in posts, and this was one of the most perfect ways to do it.

pretend there are rings xx

lareinaaaa16 - am i going insane or is that alexia’s hand…

— —

you smiled into alexia’s neck as you lay on the bed on top of her whilst scrolling through social media.

alexia made a weird grunting noise, making you laugh.

‘are you okay?’ you ask, lifting your head up so you can see her face.

‘how do they know it is my hand amor?’ she said, frowning.

you tilted you head to the side, picking up her hand and pressing a gentle kiss to it.

‘i don’t know baby.’ you say, tucking a piece of hair behind her ear as she lets her head flop forward into your chest.

she then place a kiss on your neck.

‘te amo’

‘i love you too ale’
