    Summary

    “No. Listen. Any baptized Catholic man can be pope. Any. You know what that means?”

    “It means a billion men are now eligible to run the Vatican like it’s a startup,” Beatrice mutters.

    Davide raises an eyebrow. “Where are you going with this?”

    Gianluca leans in. Drops his voice like it’s a state secret. “We choose one.”

    or

    In which there are two religions in Italy — the Catholic Church and Ferrari. When the papacy unexpectedly falls vacant, a group of dedicated Tifosi see their opportunity. After all, if Charles Leclerc can handle the pressure of the Prancing Horse, how much harder could managing the Holy See really be?

    Summary

    “What about you, Charles? Are you dating anyone?”

    Lando hears the scissors pause.

    Looking up at the mirror, Charles is looking anywhere but back at him. Are his cheeks a little pinker than before?

    - -

    Or, all Lando wants is to cultivate his relationship with his new hairdresser Charles, who refuses to tell Lando about his love life. Lando comes up with a master plan: recruit the other drivers to get haircuts and help Lando get more information from Charles so he can get to the bottom of Charles' secret.

    - -

    Or, 4 times Lando got drivers to get relationship details from his hairdresser and 1 time he found out the whole truth.

    Summary

    Oscar, a sharp-tongued foster kid who somehow ended up in the Leclerc household, is still figuring out what it means to have a family that actually wants him.

    (Or: Max is a terrifying crime lord, but to Charles and Oscar, he’s just their slightly insane, overprotective family man.)

    Summary

    They built something sacred—a sanctuary stitched together with laughter, loyalty, and a love so fierce it felt invincible. In their lakeside estate, the Verstappen-Leclerc family exists like myth: bonded by blood, marriage, and something darker. But peace is a fragile thing. And the morning that starts with cinnamon pastries, kisses, and sunlight is the same one that ends in blood. When Oscar is taken, everything cracks—and what the world doesn’t understand is that this family is not gentle. They are not safe.
    They are a dynasty.
    And they will burn the world to get him back.

    Summary

    "See, told you they'd still be open," a tall, dark-haired man says as he enters, glancing back. "Don't worry about the cost, I'll cover it."

    He's followed by a pair of shorter men, one leaning on the other's shoulders, and another tall, lanky man who instantly draws Hongjoong's eyes with his too-short shirt and tight jeans. All four are carrying an armful of wet clothes, and are also incredibly hot.

    Hongjoong sits up, pulling the lollipop from his mouth. Now these are people worth watching.

    Minho tutors Jisung in math. Jisung is a player and devastatingly straight.

    However, he doesn't seem to have much of a problem with letting Minho suck his dick every week when Minho propositions him under the guise of earning experience to woo his "crush" - which is none other than Jisung himself. But he doesn't need to know that, right? Right.

    Unless, maybe, Minho has a chance at something more after all...?

    Summary

    “Max, mon amour,” Charles tries softly, rubbing his hand soothingly over Max’s ankle. “Will you please tell me what’s wrong?”

    “Oscar is wrong!” Max explodes. Charles stares at him, shocked. He didn’t know Max had a problem with Oscar. Actually, he thought he quite liked him. “He’s so—why does he want Monaco as a home race, anyway? He doesn’t even live here!”

    “I think it’s just a joke?” Charles says, but with the way Max is behaving he starts to second guess himself. No, that’s insane—obviously Oscar is joking. Fuck.

    “But now everybody is playing along!” Max says, slamming his phone down on the couch. “F1 and the F.I.A. called him Piastri-Leclerc.”

    OR:

    Max gets a little upset about Oscar's joke. Charles is determined to find out why.

    Summary

    It’s time to face the facts: Lan Wangji, the venerable and high-esteemed Hanguang-Jun, the saviour that appears wherever the chaos is—his father—is a predator.

    A predator! One that preys on young, innocent men that have barely come of age like himself! The scandal of it all! The impropriety! And of all people to commit such a felony—his very own father!

    Or, when Lan Wangji takes Mo Xuanyu back to Cloud Recesses for the first time, everyone is mortified, especially Lan Sizhui.

    Summary

    Lance doesn’t know which of his emotions is more overpowering; the secondhand embarrassment he feels at how blatantly obvious they’re being, or the fact that watching Max and Charles in their own little world is actually kind of cute.

    He realizes it’s the secondhand embarrassment as he watches Max shamelessly grin at James and proudly explain that he was just talking to Charles.

    Lance has to resist the urge to roll his eyes, especially when he notices how Charles is quite literally the embodiment of the heart eyes emoji where he’s standing next to Max for his entire interview. And the beeline Charles makes for Max as soon as he hands the microphone to Lance after his P2 interview is even worse than the heart eyes.

    He definitely should have been paying attention to that group chat, Jesus fucking Christ.

    ---

    OR: There is a WhatsApp support group chat on how to deal with being top 3 with Max and Charles, and this is the tale of different drivers (mostly Checo) suffering at the hands of them. An ongoing fic that will be updated whenever we get content to work with.

    “Is it really so unbelievable?” Max’s frowns, noting the doubtful looks still pointed at him.

    He glances back at the picture of Charles on his phone — his features softening briefly because it’s Charles — before tucking it back in his pocket to glare at his so-called friends.

    “Well, you’re a little bit of an asshole, mate,” Lando says, ever so blunt. He gives Max a brief once over, his brows knitting in what looked to be extreme confusion and even a little judgement before he continues, “And, no offence, but he looks a little too out of your league.”

    “Do you know what fanfiction is?”

    Max blinks. “Yeah?”

    “Oh, good,” Charles says, even more relieved. “Do you know people write about celebrities?”

    Max rolls his eyes. “I’ve been briefed by PR, yeah.”

    Charles flops down on the lounge, Sassy and Jimmy long gone, and props his feet up on the coffee table. Max rolls his eyes again, then sits down next to him. He and Charles are friends, kind of, and certainly closer now that they’ve ever been before, but he’s never really witnessed Charles having a PR-related meltdown before. They’re not that close.

    Oh, well. A first time for everything, he supposes.

    “Great!” Charles says cheerily, then unlocks his phone and shoves it in Max’s face. “Do you also know that we’re ranked second on Archive of Our Own?”

    Summary

    In a kind of poetic turn of events, Charles Leclerc drives his Scuderia Ferrari Formula One race car into the barriers of the Red Bull Ring on an early July afternoon in 2023 while trying to defend his position against Mercedes’ George Russell in the 52th lap of the race.

    Instead, Leclerc’s car goes into understeer, locks up, and runs off track into the barriers before almost anyone is able to react. Leclerc’s race engineer can be heard on the radio requesting a health check- his request will not be fulfilled. In fact he, along with the rest of the world, will not get a reply at all. The 2023 Austrian Grand Prix is red-flagged almost immediately, and it does not resume.

     

    or; charles leclerc crashes into the barriers in austria, and the drivers around him struggle to cope with the consequences

    “Wait,” Lando said, voice high pitched, “you guys really think Max and Charles are into each other? For real?”

    “All the evidence points to that,” replied Alex, sighing, all analytical and a tad regretful, as if it was a shameful fact, unavoidable.

    “And you think they might be already sleeping together?”

    “No, not yet,” Daniel admitted, “they are just friends for now, and Charles is simply clingy with Max, who is a big softie with Charlie, God knows why… But… I think they want to.”

    He liked the sky when he was a child. Before Wooyoung. Taking comfort in knowing that, no matter where he was, it'd always be the same. Except now it isn't: he's a grown man who doesn't quite feel like it, cramped up in a van a world and however many years away, and he can’t remember the last time he'd seen the sun rise without it bleeding red.

    “Tell me the news, then,” he whispers. “If you please.”

    In the hush, the only sound is the faint rattle of a cart in the street; someone going about their living business, far away. In another country.

    “He’s dead,” Lin Chen says. “But you knew that, didn’t you?”
