Chapters: 29/29 Fandom: Cobra Kai (Web Series) Rating: Explicit Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply Relationships: Daniel LaRusso/Johnny Lawrence Characters: Sam LaRusso, Miguel Diaz, Amanda LaRusso, Carmen Diaz (Cobra Kai) Additional Tags: and they were (Airbnb) roommates, omg they were (Airbnb) roommates!, when you both go to look for your teenager who ran away, where are you gonna stay - a hotel????, and pay minibar prices for a beer?, aka Daniel & Johnny’s Mexico City minibreak, 0 karate, it’s actually good for them Summary:
“Ok, so I’ll go to Mexico City,” says Johnny, with more confidence than he feels. He has some confidence, but having a named destination in a foreign country where he doesn’t speak the language, rather than the nebulous idea of just finding Miguel and Sam, makes it sound harder, somehow.
And then, just to make it worse, Daniel says, “Why would you go? I’m going.”
And it’s finished! Please enjoy the Karate Adults Go On A Mexico City Minibreak; featuring Johnny Lawrence and Daniel LaRusso going to museums, day drinking, and taking each other out for dinner.
