This AU has been stewing in my head for the last 2 weeks I just had to do something drastic—I love Eyeshield 21 so much I am craving to see my favourite FFXV characters in the esteemed sport 🙂
Meet the champions of Eos Football League:
LUCIS MYSTICS
-okay I was supposed to go for Insomniacs but that’s horrible
-iconic black with their royal skull logo imprinted on the top of their helmets
-really really great at offense
-has retired pro player Cor Leonis to coach the team
-dubbed “The Tactician”, the team’s control tower
-specializes in trick plays and ridiculously quick passes
-calculates efficiently for pass and option routes
-may or may not be competent depending on his caffeine intake for the day. Take out ebony in his arsenal and he’ll turn into a demon in the field.
-the famed “Shield”
-will protecc his quarterback from blitzes 10/10
-has the most records for enemies’ harsher injuries, also mostly due to his stubborn temper
-will pave way for their runningback like a FUKKEN LAWNMOWER
-self-proclaimed “Quicksilver”
-will catch any and all balls (that’s what he said)
-makes sure to complete every pass the quarterback does
-has ‘stage fright’ every beginning of a match but changes demeanor once he steps in the border of the field
-da real MVP
-living embodiment of lazy genius
–got his ridiculous speed from running away from responsibilities
-looks like he’s so done with the world but he gets serious with playing and doing the best for his team

BONUS:
NIFLHEIM WARRIORS
-i was actually gonna go for ‘Militants’ but it’s too evil xD
-the forever rivals
-RED THE BLOOD OF ANGRY MEN
-power play
-the Nifs’ proud golden boy
–smallest youngest in their team
-smol but will nyoom to your goal posts faster than you can say ‘Cor the Immortal’
-may or may not be obsessed with the rival team’s coach–> probably the reason he joined the league
***
TENEBRAE ROYALS
-before you ask, yes I actually thought to go for ‘Seers’ or ‘Oracles’
-the dark horse (not really cos they white lol)
-really really good with defense
-the Left Hand of God
-watch out for his left-handed tackle–it’s seething with hatred
-irritates Ignis because he keeps foiling their strategies
-the living embodiment of cockblock YOU SHALL NOT PASS
