The race steward has a word with Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc at their first race together since the infamous "inchident" at Val d'Argenton one month earlier.
Max Verstappen & Charles Leclerc | WSK Euro Series KF2 | Wackersdorf 2012
🎥: [x] (June 8-10, 2012)
(Max: *nods his understanding, shakes the steward's hand* 🫤 ... meanwhile, Charles: *I refuse to even look at him* 😠)
I feel so sick to my stomach this scene has me in such a chokehold /posssss
THE WAY VAGGIE AND CHARLIE ARE LIKE- HIS WINGWOMEN?? AND SO WAS ANGEL A LITTL BIT AFTER THEY ALL WERE ENCOURAGING THEIR FELLOW NOODLE MAN TO CONFESS TO HIS CRUSH I CANT 😭😭
Him taking off his hat before talking to her as a sign of respect, and then chickening out of telling her his feelings really hits harder when you see him ACTUALLY confess that he loves her later on during the battle right before sacrificing himself because he gained so much confidence since then.
this crush is DEFINITELY not a new thing either- he complimented her bombs and explosives bc he admired them for such a long while since they became rivals and I could definitely see him thinking over and over about how incredible the bombs she made were and how incredible SHE is bc he's a nerdy dork like that <3
HIS LITTLE BLUSHES R SO CUTE TOO and Cherri definitely was feeling SMTH- her seeming a little nervous and awkward as he compliments her and the way she leaned in right before he hurriedly slithered away and the way she looked kind of upset when he just ran away UGHH💖💖
Them becoming friendly and getting along before the battle was already enough to keep me going BUT TGE CONFESSION AND THE KISS IS MAKING ME??!!????! IM NOT OKAYYHN IM DHJKDKAHHAHHENENHANJFURHNANHWHWHHB$heh))$
SO this! is about this specific entry in Burchard's Diary--

--and the APERITIO ORIS rite (the mouth thing they keep talking about), but it's also a little about Ascanio's friction with the Vatican and the della Rovere-Ascanio rivalry

Can't believe the duffers wanted a Steve x Eddie rivalry but couldn't fit it in so it just looks like Steve's got some post concussion syndrome stuff happening so his emotional regulation is off and is worried about losing the party to someone who shares their interests more than him. Like they tried for rivals and ended up at "incredibly insecure about his place in the lives of his loved ones" which I don't think they were going for but I appreciate nonetheless.
I think Drayton is a charismatic guy and like how manipulative he is in trying to get the player to help fix the whole Kieran situation, but some of his lines make me wanna take Carmine's advice and give him that Sucker Punch 👊😠
