even a Mouse by @ficster-28 - 19.7k, T, no pairings

Charles was fifteen when his dæmon settled. It was a perfectly average age to settle, and it happened so quietly and naturally that neither he nor Moira even noticed at first. They had other things to think about: today, they were aiming to beat out Ben Barnicoat and Max Verstappen at Val d’Argenton. It wasn’t until they were getting into the kart that they realised. Moira normally transformed into an insect to race, something small enough that she could crawl inside Charles’s race suit and be protected as he drove. Today, she didn’t even try to change; they both just looked at each other, and knew. “A mouse,” he said.

I don't even know where to start with this fic. It is by far my favourite F1 fic and is probably actually one of my favourite pieces of literature I have consumed. The whole fic is basically an exploration of sacrifice in motorsport in the form of a Dæmon AU. I read this early on when I was only reading Max/Charles stuff (you may recognise this author from their brilliant Lestappen fic in translation which ALSO haunts me, especially as a francophone) so I was a bit hesitant at first and it was only my love for His Dark Materials (dæmon AUs source material) that made me click on it. I have never been more glad. Please just take a leap of faith and read this.

melepathic. or something. by Anonymous - 8.5k, M, Lando/Oscar

It starts in Miami. It probably shouldn’t — Miami is far from amazing. Oscar’s brake issues and battery harvesting are laid out in the debrief like a wet sock. Lando doesn’t have much to add. What would he even say? The car was too slow. No shit. Anyway, it probably would’ve made more sense in Baku. Baku wasn’t bad. But it happened in Miami. Maybe because it wasn’t good, regression to a mean and all that as Jon likes to say. They filmed their final goodbyes for UNBOXED, had hot cocoa (Oscar) and a strawberry protein shake (Lando) in the canteen to put something of a bandage on the weekend. Oscar licked foam cream off from around his mouth. Lando found himself following the movement. Thing is, NDAs suck. They’re annoying, they’re nitpicky. If he’s in the mood and he has to go out, find someone, then whip out a biro and a legal threat, it kind of sucks. And not the good kind of sucking.

I'm pretty sure I've been insane about this fic on this blog before, but it's just such pitch-perfect characterisation of both Oscar and Lando that bleeds through perfectly into the prose as well, not just the dialogue. As a result, the end product is SO MUCH FUN even if the fic itself is kind of half crisis half FWB. It's a masterclass in characterisation and writing style, and I really wish there was more by this author to consume. It is THE best landoscar fic out there, and I think will be really difficult to top.

all that blood was never once beautiful by actparci (@sunshineyoujustwait) - 1.4k, T, Charles/Max

There are moments when Max gets it. He remembers Charles illuminated against the Monza sunshine, tall and proud, looking out over a sea of red. A king surveying his kingdom. a.k.a Max loves Charles, Charles loves Ferrari, Max struggles with the latter

A perfectly crafted character study of BOTH Charles and Max's characters that changed my brain chemistry in less than 2k words is all I have to say about this one. It's short, if you're Lestappen inclined there is no excuse to not have read this, the prose is GORGEOUS and the imagery is something else, and I'm always a fan of the Inherent Catholicism of Driving for Ferrari.

A superhero career ends not with a bang or a whimper but apparently a fall into debauchery.

Daredevil Comics # 49 gives us the last panels to feature the original version of the Lev Gleason Hitler-punching mystery man Daredevil.

It was 1949, and superheroes were just not that popular anymore, and as Charles Biro never liked the idea of masked crime fighters anyway (for more than two years, Daredevil had been turned into primarily a weird sort of masked social worker appearing at the start and end while The Little Wise Guys carried the majority of the story) so in this one, he’s given an out and while appearing from time to time on the cover never appears in another story in the comic again even though the comic runs for another 64 issues. Five years plus of Daredevil Comics with no Daredevil.

[cantsayidont]

July 1944. The stories in the Lev Gleason CRIME DOES NOT PAY series were ostensibly based on real events, but names and situations were changed to protect the innocent (and the litigious, one assumes) and of course to find opportunities for cheesecake, as in this panel from the first story in CRIME DOES NOT PAY #34. The artist is Rudy Palais, the script ("adaptation") is credited to Dick Wood.
