Logan: Oh, that's amazing.
Oscar: So, do you know the challenge that goes on with this food?
Logan: No.
Oscar: Okay. Keep it there, open. Don't chew it.
Logan, mouth full: Alright, I'm good.
Oscar: Don't. Keep going, keep going... It's the challenge. This is the challenge. He can't even breathe. [A few moments later.] We're back in action. Alright.

"My parents divorced when I was four years old. My mother then married Hervé Leclerc and my two brothers were born very close together: Charles, when I was 9, and Arthur 3 years later. Our family's history with motorsport began with Hervé, a great enthusiast, who drove F3 between 1986 and 1989. My grandfather, Charles Manni, was part of a major industry in Monaco but he dreamed more of his family taking over the company than starting to race.
But Hervé's passion became our passion, and while we had a difficult start to our relationship-- it is not easy for a 5-year-old boy to see a new man come into his life-- karting brought us closer and brought us together. When Charles was 5 years old, we went to the Brignoles track for the first time: the one owned by Philippe Bianchi, Jules' father and a friend of Hervé. Jules and I became like two brothers and spent all our free time karting. We all grew up in this environment of future good drivers: Jules, Charles, Arthur, but also Norman Nato and Pierre Gasly. Despite the age differences, we all teamed up in endurance races and put cushions under the butts of the youngest kids. But on the other hand, we didn't give them any breaks on the track."
I meant to draw this back when I did this other doll comic as another side, to show a doll that had been cared for instead of abused, but somehow I wasn't able to finish it till like 10 minutes ago, anyway I did it *confetti*
I moved recently to start a new job and part of my commute now involves one of those high capacity toll booths where a two lane road suddenly flares out into 5-7 lanes of total anarchy with no lines anywhere, and then narrows back down to two lanes again, and we're just supposed to sort ourselves out? Who designed this
anyway I dreamed up this helpful anatomical guide on the drive home
finally completed my comic based on the song ivy by taylor swift!✿ please zoom in to read the text and see the details~

Oscar: What is an annoying habit he has... Surely we know something annoying about him.
Fred: Yeah, for sure.
Oscar: We have to. But there is just something annoying about him...
Fred: Yeah, I agree.
Oscar: Because he's American. He always goes-- He always goes on about how good America is.
Fred: 'We got firepower.' He's always like that.
Oscar: Yeah, okay.
Fred: Yeah, that's it. That's definitely it. From the first day.
Oscar: What is an annoying habit you have? It actually took us a while to think about this. So, good job for that. But you're pretty patriotic as an American.
Logan: Oh, hell yeah.
Oscar: Enough said.
Logan: Yeah. 100%.
Oscar: It's like 'Murica 24/7.
Logan: Absolutely. Yeah. I'd go with that as well.

"It goes back to a long time ago when we were kids, like, nine, ten years old. We would go to holidays together and spend more time. I don't know. It just came, like one day we decided to call each other calamar, which is not really [chuckles] such a beautiful nickname but, yeah, it was just for fun. We were kids and we were laughing. And actually, we have many other nicknames because we were teammates also in karting and we spent a lot, a lot of time together. So, a lot of nicknames came alongside all this time. And this kind of stayed with us."
No, I didn't forget about those WIPs, time just moves differently for me. For you, it's been years; for me, it's just been a few seconds, maybe a minute
