    Summary

    Maybe Max already knows, sees through Charles right to the roots. “You don’t want to know? Who it is, I mean?”

    “No,” Max snaps.

    Charles flinches. He feels raw, exposed, like everyone can see the blooms unfurling in his chest.

    And then Max is turning to him and sliding a possessive hand around the base of his skull. He waits until Charles meets his eyes.

    “They don’t matter.” His long fingers curl in to press at the hinge of Charles’ jaw. “You will make them fall in love with you. Or.” Max swallows, throat bobbing reflexively. He leans in so close they’re breathing the same air. “Or you’ll get over them. Maybe…maybe fall for someone else. Anything can happen.”

    “Anything,” Charles echoes, feeling insane. Max doesn’t know. Max is jealous of himself.

     

    Or, Charles and Max have an arrangement to hook up during race weekends; half the grid knows. Charles has hanahaki; hardly anyone knows he’s heartsick, much less who he's pining over. Not his family, not Ferrari, and certainly not Max.

    Summary

    “Let’s recap then- You admit that you and Charles Leclerc have been involved in a sexual relationship for the past two years. You describe this as a ‘long-term, exclusive, friends with benefits’ arrangement, in which you estimate you usually sleep with him at least twice a week. Oh, and in your own words, it’s 'complicated'. Does that cover everything you want to tell me Max?”

    “Oh for fuck’s sake- yes, Gemma, that’s everything. Now will you please tell me what the fuck is going on?"

    “I will, but I have one last question...When did you and Charles film the sex tape?”
    .
    .
    or: Max and Charles’ sex tape is leaked to the paddock. The violation of privacy is almost as terrible as the way it forces them to confront their feelings.

    Summary

    Phainon gets sick as hell, everyone overreacts (understandably), Mydei drops increasingly un-subtle sentimental trinkets like a lovesick crow, Aglaea delivers her regular dose of poetic shade, and Tribbie is Tribbie. By the time Phainon’s mind clears, he’s short a fever, up a bracelet, and still trying to figure out why Strife’s god keeps sitting bedside like it’s a confessional.

    Summary

    Krateros was young once, many years ago. A Kremnoan warrior through and through, never did he think his undoing would be the face he saw beaming in joy as he witnessed King Eurypon and Queen Gorgo's wedding. The same face he saw twist in agony from betrayal, the same face he saw be stilled by the death titan's unyielding grip, and the same face he would meet again years later in the holy city of Okhema.

    Lord Phainon has her face. Prince Mydeimos has his face. Krateros should've known the ending of this tale long before the final curtain call arrived. And yet, he hoped for a better ending all the same.
