Me, waiting for the race to start: oh no I’m staying up late tonight
My roommate: ah, to study because you have a test on Monday, right?

No one:
Absolutely no one:
Charles Leclerc: (playing basketball, shirtless, for some reason) Thinking about switching karriers!!!
*missing repeatedly*
*blaming the wind literally inside*
*ball bounces from wall*
*cats screeching in background*
*finally one goes in*
Charles Leclerc: First try baby, first try;-)

@wafflesrisa laughed at me yesterday when I said it would take around 8000 words to get to a certain plot point in the next section of Icarus. I didn't realise how right she was until the teeny tiny bit of slagclaren I decided to intro the chapter with ballooned to 2700 words
IT'S ALL RELEVANT BUT I SWEAR I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE SHORTER

Did you know that "Alternate Universe - Formula One" is a canonical tag on AO3? To the tune of about 400 works? About a quarter of them are AUs of the recent F1 grid, but apparently an awful lot of fandoms have at least one person who wakes up one day and decides to put their blorbos into race cars.
For this year's @theterrorbigbang, I decided that I was going to be that guy for The Terror.
I have had the great good fortune to once again have @awhbeans as my collaborator, and she has done an absolutely amazing job—I don't know how she manages to pull these images out of my head and make them a reality in her illustrations, but she absolutely did and it's beautiful. Here's a tiny teaser. For the whole amazing thing(s), you gotta go look.
Anyway, it was fun to merge my two chief hyperfixations: a TV show about the destructive hubris of empire and compassion and brotherhood in the face of certain death on one hand; on the other, handsome men driving very fast cars. I've spent a lot of the last few months reading loads of F1 nonfiction, plus watching a lot of old race footage (because of course the only way I was going to write a modern AU was to pick a setting that requires at least as much research as canonical historical fiction) and hopefully it's all paid off.

Marcos took his older step sisters name and denounced his old one after she went missing and was presumed dead—but now she’s back with snazzy tattoos new sponsors for him he didn’t even know existed and sketchy behavior 😈

saw the gran turismo movie last night with some motorsports friends and its a 2hr playstation/nissan commercial but you know what. sports movies i love you. something about a dramatic win at a Big Final Contest will always hit cinematically no matter how ridiculous the context. to Me.
