Summary
But before Max leaves them all in the dust, it’s Daniel’s turn. It has to be. Christian doesn’t get to decide that it isn’t. Because Daniel has given his all to this team, and he has waded through shit for this team, and this – retirement after fucking retirement – cannot be the end of the road. He deserves – no. He has earned it; to be there when this shitbox of a car finally improves and the gap to Mercedes closes.
So despite a voice in the back of his mind saying, get out while you still can, dipshit –
Daniel is staying at Red Bull.

Summary
“Not hungry,” Max says, pushing them across the table toward Daniel. If Daniel didn’t know any better, he’d say that Max looked a little queasy at the idea of eating. “If you care so much, why don’t you have them?”
“Because,” Daniel draws out, “they’re not part of my meal plan. I don’t have a meal plan anymore mate.”
Max meets Daniel’s eyes at that statement— pale grey-blue into dark brown— and he looks absolutely wrecked.
“I’m sorry,” he stutters out as if he personally had something to do with Daniel’s less than stellar exit from the sport he gave his entire life too.

"You're a hard standard for people to measure themselves against", Daniel says. "You were too much for both Gasly and Albon, and now Checo is struggling as well".
Max looks at him. "You lasted three years".
"I left, Maxy".

Summary
Standing over the mercenary, Max looks at him for a moment. He's half-covered in blood, armor scuffed and worn out where it's strapped to his body. He looks deceptively slim, but Max had felt first-hand the strength behind his blows. A pair of brown eyes stare fixedly at Max's visor.
He's lifting his sword, ready to strike him down, when the man opens his mouth and speaks.
"Max?"

Or the one where Max and Daniel used to serve the kingdom together as fellow knights. The problem is: Max doesn't remember.
