Notes:

i have to read so much of the odyssey bro like this can't be healthy

also i don't have an iphone but i've read a ton of texting fics so i basically know how messages on an apple work... but suspend disbelief of whatever you need to in order to enjoy it
also the reason that the normal goalies gc only really has drapeau and nilsson is cuz i didn't really want to explore what they would talk about (also i just didn't want to create more ocs like bro that shit's hard 😭)

but yeah #nohomeworkdone #academicvictim
