Don't know what it is with me stumbling on all kinds of Echeverias lately, but I scored 2 'Linguas' today for 2 eur each! That is way way way way cheaper than what they are going for anywhere in the world at the moment. Obviously they are not in the best shape and are extremely light-deprived, but I'm hoping to get them healthy and growing well again. I think I have to decapitate both and take it from there.
Anybody know whether this cultivar pups and/or propagates from leaves well? One of the plants does have 2 pups growing, so obviously they do produce them at some point.

Re: Scored some discount Echeverias
It's one of the larger frilly/caranculated gibbiflora hybrids, so leaf cuttings will probably be difficult. You'll have much better luck with using the flower bracts (either detached like a normal leaf, or with a cut portion of the stalk) or trying to root the flowerstalks themselves.
