main pairing: rich/jake !!!

word count: 103,655

desc:

What he wanted to say was 'I don't mind your lisp.' What came out was, "You look really pretty right now."

His eyes were slipping shut, but he could still see Rich's wide eyes and parted lips. Jake couldn't tell whether or not he was blushing, but he'd at least been rendered speechless.

If it were anyone else, there was no doubt they'd be punched. Jake got the privilege of the only response behind a whispered, "Okay."

"Okay?" he replied, his tongue heavy.

"Okay." --- Basically, Be More Chill but it's all from Jake's pov

Review: this is the fanfic that got me into rich/jake and it. is. amazing. this one isn't too popular, but it's angst with a happy ending. all of the slow burn was so worth it to read the final chapter (not going to spoil anything here because it's incredible and you guys deserve to read it for yourselves without me spoiling the ending ahhhh

the contrast between characters with/without the squip??? AMAZING. the characterisation??? INCREDIBLE. the proper depiction of Jake's mental health issues??? and Rich's??? asgdfhdfh this slow burn is the best thing ive ever read

gonna draw so much inspiration from this for my fanfics because dude. there was so much creativity and love poured into this fanfic that it makes me want to screammmmmm

(i got rid of the rating system by the way. because all of the fanfics i put on h(e)ere are going to be 5/5s)

the way ppl see the star of david now is actually so gross and blatantly antisemitic it makes me sad. my gf's mom, who is jewish, got me a star of david pin w the trans flag like a year ago and I have it on a beanie I wear to work at a coffee shop sometimes. and today a group of Young White Gays came in & were staring me & the damn hat down like I'd spit in their coffee and they start whispering amongst themselves going "first starbucks and now this?" like abt the starbucks boycott lmfao I'm like

begging yall to understand that the star of david =/= israel and you assuming everyone you see wearing it is some violent islamphobe is actually incredibly shit. you should probably work on that. I've heard WAY too many stories of jews lately actually literally getting attacked for wearing one, which is much worse than annoying comments at a coffee shop to someone who's only jew(ish). if you Don't see an issue w that I really don't know what to say

Murray Walker's interview with Alain

The last is the inevitable one, Ayrton Senna. But before you answer, I want to tell you a little story. One year at Monaco, I waited four and a half hours outside the Marlboro motorhome to do an interview with Senna. The two of you were having a debrief. When the door opened, the first person who came out was you. I said: "You've been in there for four and a half hours. What on earth do you talk about for all that time?" You said: "Well, Murray, we talk about this and we talk about that, but I do not like to be the first to leave!" Did that sum up your relationship with Ayrton?

Yes and no. The team were very professional. Everything we could get from each other was important. If you left too soon, you would miss learning something.

But the way you said it, I had the impression that once you left, Ayrton would say, "And put another two pounds in the tyres."

We were very professional. Even when we had the big fight. It was a funny situation because we only talked to each other in the briefings. There, it was like we never had any problem. We were sharing set-ups and things on the car. I promise you – and I don't know whether the same is true for him – that I never, ever lied to him.

As someone who had enormous admiration for Senna, I never forgave him for lying about Japan in '90.

The only problems I have today are Imola '89 and Japan '90. I really suffered over them. Everybody lies in life, but when you lie for your own benefit... I suffered a lot. I almost stopped at the end of '90. For a few days I wondered whether it was worth carrying on, especially when I saw the comments in the papers that it was almost my fault! I remember one of the Honda engineers coming to me on the evening of the race and saying, "We have looked at the telemetry. It is unbelievable, Senna stayed absolutely flat until the impact." I thought, "Shit." Why didn't the truth come out? Living with that was very difficult. You must understand that Ayrton's motivation was to beat me. All he wanted to do was beat me. Being world champion was one thing, but that was almost second to the challenge of beating me. I was his obsession. As soon as I retired, he changed totally. We talked on the phone as if we had been friends for a long time. After I stopped, our new relationship made me forget about everything else. I remembered only the best of Ayrton and not the worst. It's like in school.

Vanessa didn't even die and yet her story is still sadder and more fucked up than jtodd's. He wishes he was on her level
