toto should not do george about it no one should do george about it! toto should just give him a very perfunctory well done and then nothing. no debrief no meetings no information about the car. lewis and toto should have a very intimate conversation where toto has his hand on lewis's waist right in front of him talking quietly enough that he can't hear any of it.
oh I like this so much... big fan of no one doing george...
george tapping his foot in nervous tension, he wants toto to be mad at him so he has a 100 rehearsed lines about how p3 is good for the team, for the sprint; and he'll make it up to toto for binning the car. not to take responsibility and apologize, no, but offer reasonable justification. repeat what he likes to say, 'no points for quali.' if someone's attacking you, you get to defend yourself; but if no one is... and maybe they Should be then it puts the onus of self reflection on you... and george doesn't want to look inward. he's scared of what he might see (the crack in the unquestioning self belief that he's always the Good Guy, who is Doing what it Takes)
toto just says a perfunctory (lovely word usage) congratulations on p3 and moves on. completely blank and indifferent, and george is like oh he must be Real pissed at me, and doesn't wanna show it in front of engineers and staff -- that's fine, he can just Logic and Rationalize his way out.
george goes to lewis, that it's a shame his lap time was cut but they'll make it up in the race. maybe make a joke about holding kevin behind. he knows lewis can be touchy about teammates crashing during quali to end up in a better position than him. instead, lewis just says, "better drivers would've done the same" a pat on his shoulder and walks away. the sheer dismissiveness of the way lewis treats him, that he's wall decor, like it doesn't bother lewis at all that george is beating him, like he doesn't matter enough to get mad about. and the shade of 'better drivers'
he's full of nervous energy all throughout the debriefs and sticks around, waiting for toto to call on him. get verbally reamed out. some part of him thinks he deserves it. instead, he sees lewis and toto speaking; and they don't notice he's there. toto who is comforting lewis, it seems like, toto who readily apologizes to lewis, who admits they've given him a shit car he does not deserve, a team principal who would go bat for his driver no matter. and it's not about first driver, because technically, in order of points -- that makes it george, no, there is a fondness and a respect between them that george will never get from toto. at least toto being angry at him means he knows george is there, a thing to be mad at. it's worse, still being an outsider when he's finally inside; to be invisible in your own team. he could break a thousand cars in this moment and it wouldn't matter, beyond the headache it would cause merc's accountant.

people telling you they reread your fic is the biggest compliment you could ever receive. there are thousands of stories out there begging to be found, to be explored, but your story meant so much to someone that they came back to it eagerly, they went over every word again. to love is to return and loving a fic is rereading it. thank you to all readers and rereaders <3333

DONT BE AFRAID TO COMMENT ON OLD FICS DONT BE AFRAID TO COMMENT ON FICS IN A FANDOM THE AUTHOR MAY NO LONGER BE ACTIVE IN. IF THE STORY IS STILL UP LET THEM KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS IT MIGHT JUST BE THE REMINDER THAT MAKES THEIR DAY.
SINCERELY SOMEONE WHO JUST GOT A REPLY THAT MADE ME WANNA MAKE THIS POST

thinking about the expert masseuse Alfred hired for the family that is paid a small fortune annually to provide massage services and ignore so, so many things. No questions, no remarks, just quality service and an ironclad NDA that, if broken, would probably topple said masseuse’s entire family line.
Things Alfred is paying them to ignore, in no specific order:
Bruce’s spinal hardware courtesy of Bane :)
weird amounts of muscle on everyone, even the kids (despite them allegedly not working physical jobs)
scars
FRESH scars
the fact that every joint in Bruce’s body clicks when moved/manipulated at the tender age of 42
Olympic athlete level physiques
rotator cuff injuries across the whole family
scars that are definitely from bullets and/or acid splashes
old signs of what looks like torture (Bruce)
Dick’s entire left arm is basically screws and plates (he “fell really bad” once)
every single family member takes deep tissue massage with max pressure with 0 complaints
calluses
no really, the weirdest fucking calluses

(Dick coming to collect Jason after he’s been “wrongfully” captured by the justice league while Batman is off world:)
Dick: Listen, Hood might be a criminal, but he’s one of Gotham’s. And he’s my brother.
JL: he killed 80 people in two days.
Dick: …he’s adopted?
Jason, glaring while bound to a chair: SO ARE YOU???

Please, for the love of god, please don’t be this person. No matter how long it’s been since an update, no matter how many unfinished stories are sitting on their account, no matter what - do not be this person.
Not only is it insanely rude, but you also do more damage than you think be being such a self-entitled ass about something someone created for free and for fun. “This author” can see what you say.
RIP decency indeed.
