#marc isn't super open about his job especially since he basically stops doing it once seeing vale

[hotmessmaxpress]

I haven't even considered that the boys also will get to know Marc eventually. Are they cool with him? Is Marc open about his job? They probably love the fact that Marc also rides bikes, maybe one of them has even raced him once in earlier years and magically remembers the name (maybe his face as well)? And Marc and Vale were afraid said academy boy knew him from OF?

Hahahahahaha I need to write out a long form chapter-style response to this, but I am DYING.

I'm just picturing marc showing up to the ranch while the Academy Bros are training, all timid and shy, and luca "valentino's dear brother" marini looks him dead in the eye and goes.

"Marc Marquez!"

And vale and marc absolutely SHIT BRICKS. They're literally stunned, gasping for air, total KO. Vale's brain cells have packed up and left at the idea of his baby brother seeing his boyfriend- HIS marc-- naked online.

Marc is standing there, mouth open like a fish, and luca bounds over.

"Remember me? We raced minimoto for one summer in andorra!" (I just made that up, let's pretend it's realistic)

Marc wheezes in relief and is like "oh...! Yes you had bad hair"

Also I think the boys would generally be chill with it. Bezz is suspicious of him and claims it's because he doesn't approve of sex work, but really it's just that he's having confusing sexual feelings about Celestino and being confronted with a paragon of male sexuality makes his confusing feelings hard to ignore <3
