super obsessed with your art, seb looks soooooooooooo stunning!!! I am now very curious however, only if you feel like going into it, as to which other historical figures you align with which drivers?👀👀

AAAAAA tysm Grace!!!! Though I am so so so sorry for how rambly and long this post is gonna be, but you just asked me abt one of my brainrots!! I will answer your question but also talk about my history alignments and AUs in general LOL

But if I'm making comparisons of F1 drivers and historical figures, my brain kinda forces me to make it an AU because I'm like "this needs to make absolute sense historically and contextually.)

So, tbh of the four historical AUs that float around my brain, only two of them are really specifically about certain historical figures. The four are: Nandopoleon(About how Fernando reminds me of Napoleon), War of Spanish Succession(mostly about that era, but Seb and Nando are supposed to be paralleling Charles VI and Philip V), Napoleonic Hussars(which is about how , in general, Hussars = F1 drivers), and Rennaissance Muse(this just happens to take place in a different era.)

Explaining my AUs and the historical contexts(proceed with caution, its a lot)

Nandopoleon:

Okay so I'm really really am so deranged about Napoleon = Fernando, but I’ve not posted about it too much because I wanna make a well thought out post about it. But basically I think they’re similar people with similar characteristics and motivations. There was this period of time over the summer where I was only brain rotting about how well any of Napoleon’s quotes fit Fernando(with my fellow nandopoleon confidant @/sweatyflytrap haha.) Here’s some quotes as example:

“Victory belongs to the most persevering.”

“It is not necessary to bury the truth. It is sufficient merely to delay it until no one cares.”(Piasco era lol)

“Victory is not always winning the battle…but rising every time you fall.”

“From triumph to failure is only one step.”

"A soldier will fight long and hard for a bit of colored ribbon."(trophies y'know)

"Always carry champagne! In victory you deserve it, and in defeat you need it!"

Tell me Fernando wouldn't use these as instagram captions! TELL ME!!! But the other thing that was driving me crazy is how well excerpts from the personality/image section of Napoleone's wiki line up with testimonials from Fernando's doc. Examples:

"He cheated at cards, but repaid the losses; he had to win at everything he attempted."(Napoleon) "Whatever activity I take part in, I have this compulsion to find the compeititon in it."(Fernando)

"He could rapidly dictate a series of complex commands to his subordinates, keeping in mind where major units were expected to be at each future point, and like a chess master, 'seeing' the best plays moves ahead"(Napoleon) "When you talk to him, his mental capacity is so strong. He's talking to you, but his brain is thinking ahead"(Fernando)

Like c'mon tell me they aren't at least a bit similar??? There's a lot else I find similar about them but I cannot list my whole manifesto here skdjlsd

Anyways this AU would be Fernando as Napoleon and would be Webbonso -> Strollonso. Basically, Napoleon had two wives: his first wife, who was older than him and who he was super in love with, but had to divorce because they couldn't have kids, but he still loved her deeply. And then his second wife , who was much younger thanhim and from the Austrian royal family, and this was a politically motivated marriage but they still got on pretty well!!(also it's funny, before she married him she didn't want to be with him because the public perception of him made him out to be not the best guy, but then she wrote to her father about how loving and kind he was. very Strollonso, no?)

War of Spanish Succession:

Mostly explained it here and here. I'm not too interested in either Philip V nor Charles VI themselevs as individuals, but rather the roles they fufill in the "story." Though I will say, I got hit with a brick while reading Charles VI's wiki when finding out that he apparently had several male lovers! So I guess my AU having an arranged m/m marriage isn't even that far off the mark hahaha. Why did they have a 13 year war, they should have just arranged a marriage between the two canidates sigh sigh. But yeah, mostly Austria vs. Spain, I think it fits well with the Vettonso rivalry!! They would end up being: Fernando I King of Spain and Sebastian I Holy Roman Emperor hehe. Also I sketched some more:

Napoleonic Hussars:

Explained here as well as with art, and more art here. I'm really still proud of the points I made, I just feel very ardently about it!!! Not about any specific figure, but rather a historical group that I think lines up extremely well with F1 drivers. But this one is fun cause I can kinda insert any driver into it and they'll work pretty well. It's fun to figure out what kingdom what driver would be, either based off their nationality or the nationality of their team. I remember vividly staring at a map from this era trying to figure out where Maranello would be....But like Renault = Kingdom of France and RBR = Kingdom of Austria, and stuff like that

Rennaisance Muse:

Mostly just this post, I've not thought about this one incredibly deeply. Mostly just brainrot about how I think Seb looks like The David with his curly hair

#catie answer an ask without making it a soliloquy challenge: failed #hope this is at least sort of interesting to people other than me!#basically: I like reading about F1. I like reading about history. why not mix them :DDD #also sorry Grace that this ended up being more about my AUs rather than which historical figures align with who #if im gonna compare a driver to a figure then my brain is like 'this needs to make absolute sense historically' so it becomes its own AU #though i think fernando is a much easier driver than any others to make historical comparisons about #and thats really only bcs hes very specific with how he portrays himself and how the public eye is supposed to view him #hes much more of a 'character' and is easier to compare bcs historical figures also end up becoming chararictured bcs of the passage of tim #having a lot of fun with this most recent one!!! the idea of arranged marriage vettonso(with boy king seb) is brainrotting me #all of these have ships as well that theyre kinda focused around #hussars is the most general but Ive already drawn martian for it sooooo #and the rennaisance is also martian #nandopoleon I already said what it would be(god the irl age gaps align so well to each other)#and then obv spanish succession is vettonso arranged marriage #anyways aaaahhhhh fun side projects which I like to research and draw!!!#and ik ive said it a lot but thank you guys for showing interest!! its pretty niche i think....#catie.asks.#catie.rambling.txt #boy king au #hussar au #nandopoleon alonsoparte

more wenzhou/LLD brainrot idk what the hell is going on anymore tbh: (PART THREE)

1. Jiangxi's Fire Department (from Zhang Zhehan's hometown) wished Gong Jun a Happy Father's Day on their official weibo. What is the context, you ask? It's likely a reference to one of Gong Jun's many nicknames within the fandom. And yes, the supposed "mother" is exactly who you think it is.

You'd think that after the end of all official promotions for WOH, their chaotic hometown weibo accounts would finally run out of excuses to make all these wild posts, but it's been months now. Apparently, peace was never an option.

2. ElleMen Magazine posted a feature about male celebrities and their "heart-thumping moves". For Gong Jun, they used his interactions with Zhang Zhehan as an example.

"In order to match the height of the other person, he lowers his head and slightly bends down. Just thinking about this picture, one's heart jumps out! For this, we have to cue Gong Jun. Although their height difference is just a few centimeters, he always bows his head everytime he listens to what Zhang-Laoshi has to say,"

"And the whole process is very natural, a completely subconscious reaction. During the recording of the variety show Ace Actress, Zhehan simply tapped Junzi and Junzi automatically lowered his head to listen to him,"

"Let's take a look at how the two usually look at each other. Well, the background music should be: "I smile as soon as I see you! Your elegant demeanor is so wonderful~"

If you have any questions don't even bother asking because nobody knows what the hell is going on.

3. Marie Claire's official weibo accidentally posted a photo of Zhang Zhehan in Gong Jun's supertopic. They realized their mistake half an hour later and corrected it, but it was too late and people were already clowning them in the comments section. #Marie Claire tags wrong supertopic trended on weibo.

People were trolling them nonstop in the comments, helpfully posting pictures of the two and pointing out "This is Gong Jun. This is Zhang Zhehan,"

Hundreds of variations of the same comment flooded the post's comment section. People were also tagging them in posts with the same joke. It seemed that Marie Claire's mistake managed to spawn a new meme.

Finally, to everyone's amusement, Marie Claire deleted their post. People assumed they couldn't take the thousands of people clowning them. Marie Claire, however, came back with a vengeance and straight up posted photos of GJ and ZZH together and captioned it "This is Zhang Zhehan, this is Gong Jun,"

Following the usual timeline of dangai dramas, everyone should be treating these two as "strangers" who should never appear in the same frame by now, but it seems that the brainrot is just too strong for these two.

c-ent industry: "ahahaha actually there are standards in place for things like this-"

everyone else: "YA'LL HEAR SUMN"

4. It seemed that Ifeng Entertainment caught a whiff of the newly spawned meme and decided to join in on the clownery. They tagged Zhang Zhehan's supertopic on a post calling him out for spraying sunscreen over his shades. They attached pictures of him, but one of those pictures was.......not like the rest.

Anyway, rules no longer apply. The brainrot has taken over. Everyone is confused. I'm confused. These people have all gone nuts.
