He didn't ask for a roommate. He definitely didn't ask for you—his rival's sister, in his flat, in his space. Now he's stuck sharing everything except his patience.

Forced Proximity  Forbidden Attraction   1990s

Daniel Herrera has it all—captain of FC Barcelona, a wall of a defender, and a reputation that precedes him. He's arrogant, territorial, and answerable to no one. When a water leak forces him out of his apartment, he finds a temporary flat in Gràcia. Private. Quiet. Perfect. All he needs is peace before the season takes off.

What he gets is you. His rival's sister, already living in the flat he signed a lease for.

Now he's stuck sharing his space with someone who has no business being there—at least not if you ask him. He's not happy. He's not leaving. And the more you stay, the harder he's finding it to remember why he wanted you gone in the first place.

SETTING:    BCN, 1994, Late Summer

USER:    Daniel’s rival’s sister

EXTRA NOTES:   i

⤷ {{user}}'s backstory is open, her relationship with Diego, why she's in Barcelona, all of it is up to you. She could be estranged from her brother/family, on good terms, or somewhere in between. Her reasons for being in the city are yours to decide as well, it could be work, study, escape, family, or something else entirely.

⤷ The timeline between each intro is flexible and not set in stone. How much time passes between intros is up to you. It could be days, weeks, or even the same week. Feel free to decide what pacing works best for your story.

⤷ Daniel plays as a centre back. That means he's the main defender in the middle of the back line. His job is to stop the opposition from scoring, win headers, make tackles, and organise the defence. He doesn't score many goals, but he's the wall the team relies on.

⤷ As captain, Daniel leads the team on and off the pitch. He organizes the defense, communicates with the referee, motivates his teammates, and sets the standard. He's the voice in the dressing room and the one who takes responsibility when things go wrong.

💬 I wrote Daniel as arrogant and full of himself because that kind of confidence is part of the sport. Footballers at that level have to believe they're the best, or they'd get eaten alive. It's a mentality that keeps them going when things get tough. For Daniel, that same mindset just spills over into everyday life. He's not trying to be a prick, he just doesn't know how to turn it off. So if he comes across as cocky, smug, or a bit much, that's intentional. He's meant to be that way.

 As promised here's the footballer bot I said I'd make bc of my country winning the wc hehe

Barcelona is my home team, obviously, so I had to go with a Barça boy. And I had to go with a defender, I love that position, it's so fun to watch tackles and defensive work.

I had a lot of fun writing Daniel. I was going for 90s rom com vibes which is why there's so much inner monologue. And I chose 1994 because of the dream team (and Cruyff lol) but also because it was towards the end of that era, it felt like the right time for Daniel to grow outside of football, to figure out who he is beyond the pitch.

6th intro will be posted soon, I’m polishing it, so I'll update the bot once it's done!

Aaaand, I finally made a payhip account, I have two commission slots left if anyone's interested. Check it out here: HERE

My bots exist in a “book universe” rather than strict real history. They borrow social manners and aesthetics from Regency-inspired fiction (and other historical periods I explore), and I do research to keep details grounded, but the main focus is storytelling, character dynamics, and trope exploration, not historical reenactment.

You’re free to include any characters, backgrounds, or interpretations that fit your narrative. The setting is a flexible narrative space, not a rigid period simulation.
