Summary
Max Verstappen is a lot of things: fast, focused, ferocious. But feelings? Feelings have always been trickier.
So he does what any emotionally constipated thirteen year old would do: he starts a list.
And The List grows. Through karting, into Formula 1, across podiums and seasons and stolen glances. A hundred quiet observations of the boy who glows brighter than Monaco in July.
It’s just for Max. No one ever has to know.
Until Charles finds it.
Or, a decades-long pining spiral, Oscar Piastri as the hero of the story, and the quiet ache of being known—truly, entirely—by the person who matters most.

Summary
“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?”
