[likelylarks]

you're the only person i've seen to share my feelings about l*ndo and it's refreshing lmao. please someone name me one (1) redeemable quality. i have TRIED. i have tried so hard. i've watched so many videos in my attempts and all of them??? he's the most unlikable person!!!

i’m here to slander lando at any time babes ✌️so much slander under the cut bc i’ve always felt bad coming for him but you’ve made me feel like i have an audience 🥰

i’ve heard people say that he grew on them bc of his friendship with max but i genuinely don’t know how bc he’s literally that friend that says bitchy shitty things behind your back and to your face and then says “but we’re friends haha i don’t mean it in a bad way” but it’s like dude, it was still bitchy and shitty (sorry but he’s not funny over streams with max, he’s just rude and if one of my friends talked to me like that, i wouldn’t think they respected me, and max is truly a gift for giving him the benefit of the doubt)

he’s only recently started to enjoy daniels presence (a crime, daniels presence is a gift) but before that,, again talking shit!!!! documented by reporters and fucking netflix!!! and also many many instances of daniel just being himself and lando looking at him as if he’d grown not just a second but a third head,,, like dude,, grow the fuck up and realize that being open and genuine and having fun in casual scenarios does not mean that a person is unprofessional when it comes to their actual job

also!! whenever anyone calls lando a generational talent i have to laugh because i simply do not see it,, future world champion?? WHERE?? boy can’t even win a race (sochi 2021 my beloved i hope lando dreams about you always)

like, a generational talent is max or charles, proven to be able to go the distance under the intense pressure and actually win — lando? not a chance,, fumbled the call for switching to inters and literally threw away a win, showing a distinct lack of maturity, skill, talent, and racecraft needed to win races and furthermore become a wdc one day

the 2022 season? sure he’s outperforming daniel (who has had damage on his car for the bulk of his races this season and has had bad strategy calls for not only the rest but also some of the ones where he had damage — so you know, not fucking hard) but he’s only outperforming him in qualifying — his race pace has been about equal to daniel’s if not worse a lot of times

because mostly his performance this season has been riding 20 to 40 seconds behind the car in front and “running a lonely race” and losing time every single lap,,, tell me where this generational talent that is outperforming the car is? because the difference between lando and daniel this season is that lando gets pitted into open air where he can fall behind like that, and daniel gets pitted into traffic and he gets overtaken BECAUSE THE CAR IS A TRACTOR

but it looks like lando is doing significantly better bc of his finishing position,, when in reality, if he got pitted and released where daniel was? he wouldn’t have done any better and we all fucking know it

but ALSO where are his impressive overtakes? not just from this season but from his entire career? could lando norris HAVE a highlight reel? the only thing i can think of is his mess with checo last season in portugal when they were trading penalties but i wouldn’t call that a highlight,, the five car scrap from this season? you look back at it,,, lando doesn’t actually do anything significant so wouldn’t count that

like what is impressive about his racecraft?? what!!

like in comparison, off the top of my head, daniels triple overtake in baku in 2017, his double overtake on the alpines in hungary 2022, holding seb off in monaco 2018 with half an engine,,, highlights

also, this is just my own personal WILD speculation based on what we know about their character and their tendency to whine over the radio, but joe ricciardo made daniel start out in a secondhand kart even though he could afford a new one to teach daniel about hard work and the value of things and daniel loved it anyway; you know that if lando ever had to start in a secondhand kart he’d have shit himself over the unfairness of it all

also i stand by what i said about him being just some guy with a big head bc he’s not even that cute AND people losing their minds over those pics/gifs of him bc his hair was curling a certain way,,, y’all fucking dm me for pics or whatever bc he is literally not special, when i had my hair shorter it curled that exact same way,, people really just need to spend time with curly haired people MY GOD

[reigningmax]

lol thank you! sorry to be annoying and link my stuff on your post <3

No no!! Don’t be sorry! You worked hard on these fics, you should be telling people about them!!

[dogsliampaynedoesntinstagram]

i would love both/either louis and niall on the podcast Switched On Pop. Song writers and musicologists deconstruct songs from head to toe including isolating base lines, analyzing note sequences, etc etc., and interpreting what they think the meaning of certain things could be. i love it so much and it'd be awesome to hear louis or niall on it.

That would be so cool.  I’ve loved every Switched on Pop episode I’ve ever listened to.  Do they have guest pop stars? I thought it was just the regular guy - if they do occasionally have guests I would be so into listening to them talk about their favourite songs.

“he’ll wave the flag around and act like an ally and then go out with a model” what does anon think straight allies are??? (if he’s straight). if he’s a straight ally what… should he be doing…? idgi

I don’t know what the anon wants tbh

otfourever replied to your post “Who is Alice to the boys? From the screenshot”

they're cousins too, arent they?

I don’t think so...? I’m p sure they’re just friends

[thewalkinggifs]

the walking dead actually doesn't make a ton of money, and their cast are some of the lowest-paid actors on television.

How is that possible? The show is extremely popular and they have like 10 ad breaks during an ep.

[semperama]

@trailsofpaper tagged me to post the titles of my wips so people can ask me to post snippets!

I really hope that any one of these will see the light of day, but right now I sadly only have three that aren't a whole mess without enough written to provide a good snippet, and they are:

horse ranch au

neighbor daniel

saint tropez

And I've already posted some snippets from two of those, but yeah, if you want a teaser I could post a short bit probably!

Idk who has been tagged yet, but I will tag @toastandvegemite, @otfourever, @baking-soda, and @nunnit

Both older and newer fics, sorted by the pairings!  * Favorite  ** Smut  All the fics are favorites of mine but the ones with a * were a punch to the gut in a good way! Fic writers in this fandom don’t get enough hype or credit so please spread the word and please send me your fic recs too! 

Max/Charles

i've got you tonight and always by footysel

Nothing in their world was ever certain, except for the fact that at the end of the day, they always had each other. No matter what, Max is always going to be there for Charles.

Lovely by @mahixa

Charles has always been like that. Like that? So like what? Max thinks, forcing himself to finally understand what he has been feeling for so long, searching in his head for the best word to describe the other man. Lovely. Charles has always been quite lovely, he admits to himself.

*champagne, cocaine, gasoline (and most things in between) by finedae @blorbocedes

Redemption tastes an awful lot like Max Verstappen pouring a bottle of champagne down his back, after winning the Austrian Grand Prix in the Red Bull Ring.

*love like a fist by teammates

There is no version of love that matches comfort. No, love is like a fist hitting square into his jaw. Love is pain. Charles smiles, green eyes twinkling under the artificial lights, his slender fingers toying with the loose strings of his bracelet. Max watches, with a heavy weight on his chest bringing him down and a knot tied on his throat. Love hurts. He wants nothing but to reach out and hold his hand and let Charles run his index fingers through his palm, mapping out his veins, but he can’t. He can’t.

***contrition by finedae (all fics by this author are gorgeous)

aftermath of the french grand prix 2022. charles looks for ways to punish himself.

*proximity by grandprix (all their fics!! amazing!!)

These kinds of smiles on Max are reserved for other people. Like Daniel, like Lando, like those Dutch guys that come around sometimes and he likes to yell with. Not Charles. It’s probably the fourth time Max is acting noticeably strange around him that he notices the freckle on his lip.

*i got you (a lil' something) by Missha (Mishtique)

Max and Charles spend the holidays with family and Max ends up having a special present he bought with Charles in mind.

***I Know Places by Tazza1993

Max owns a cat café in Amsterdam and is perfectly content with his quiet, little life. Until one day, four time F1 champion Charles Leclerc comes across his café. A Notting Hill AU.

*days like this by @playclock (all their Lestappen fics, chefs kiss)

Every time, you watch him like you had watched him that day in the rain. Every time, you are happy for him—but you aren’t up there with him, and the days continue to count. You’re counting, always counting.

***Feel The Heat Going Overdrive by Anonymous

In which Charles keeps asking questions about the RB18 in the midst of their sexual escapades and Max is – literally – one DNF away from blowing a fuse.

Max/Daniel 

***established relationship snapshots by swallowsmateforlife @otfourever

snapshots from a happy, healthy, trusting, long, committed relationship. all can be read as stand-alones. no chronology. just sneak-peaks into moments from their life together. 

(Part 1 and 2 are my personal ultimate faves)

***two feet on the water by @yekoc​ 

“I just, like. You know, just because we’re both guys,” Daniel says.

He takes another gulp of wine. “We don’t both, like, do everything the same in bed, I guess, or whatever.”

I've never felt more alone by yellowleaves

Daniel and Max are doing fine until Max brings his boyfriend to the paddock one day, and then Daniel just isn't fine.

***mine had my face by tobabylon @geluksalig​ 

When Martijn tells Daniel he's fucked Max, Daniel thinks it's a joke.

*Naked in his possession by Charlotte_Stant @boxboxlewis

ENG 312 is a seminar, which is bullshit, because it means Max won’t be able to hide behind his laptop in the back corner of a lecture hall and get on with his actual work.

***find what you love (and let it kill you) by @toastandvegemite 

Or: It's meant to be an old wives tale, a warning that if you submit to another Alpha, you won't stay an Alpha.

Misc. 

*Give it some, give it some, give it some time, But I think we're supposed to be by byesexualniall

(Or; the five times Charles and Buttons wage war, and the one time they don’t.) - Charles x Reader

*In The Wet by plastics

How did you learn to get so good in the wet? ... These conditions are where the greats are recognized. - Carlos x Lando 

***call it serendipity (I'd know you anywhere) - series by bones_2_be

Lewis didn't expect to run into Daniel at Coachella, but he turns out to be the best thing on offer. In which Daniel and Lewis get high and then get off in Lewis' fancy tent.

***hierarchy of needs by toastandvegemite

Daniel and Carlos have a one-night stand (or one-afternoon, technically, on Max's bed while its owner is asleep in the bathtub). It's just a bit of fun. Daniel isn't meant to get pregnant.

otfourever replied to your post: i don't think you hate harry, but you are clearly...

i love harry as much as the next person but the whole “kindness” thing being put on a pedestal is baffling to me. radical political change and activism cannot be founded on kindness. what has that ever accomplished.

Well the people who are praising Harry’s kindness aren’t necessarily seeking radical political change - people have a wide variety of political views.

By talking about niceness in a video tribute to Martin Luther King Harry both suggested that he sees it as part of his politics - and (I think) revealed how terrible it is as a political statement.

I think as a motto for himself there are some positives to be said for ‘treat people with kindness’ (although it still leaves me cold), but there’s a lot to unpack in a man telling his almost entirely female audience to be more kind - and the more I unpack it the less I like it.

[strangenewfriends]

otfourever replied to your post: Why do you dislike print interviews?

I agree but when things are quoted in quotations those are actual quotes, anything else could be at risk of libel or slander lawsuits.

Honorable Mention Larry Fics of 2016 Part 2

These are the fics that didn’t originally make the Top 25 Larry Fics List of 2016. The original list was published according to kudos. These are fics that I consider underrated or just barely made the cut for the last list. Unlike the last list, this one is in no particular order. I encourage everyone to add to this list if they don’t see their favorites mentioned.

-Gonna Take You Everywhere (And Never Ask You Who You Are) by @louchanan (34k)

“He ripped out your heart?” Harry asks. “Literally or metaphorically?”

“Oh, literally,” Louis replies. “I wouldn’t let anyone but you metaphorically rip out my heart, you hunk.”

“Sometimes I think we shouldn’t work together because you’ll be too distracted by your crush on me,” Harry says cheekily.

“I already am and I haven’t died yet.”

“That’s because you can’t die.”

or, Louis Tomlinson is the merc with a mouth and Harry Styles is the famous web slinger.

-In the Middle of the Night by @hazkabaan (8k)

louis takes a stray dog in for the night and ends up with more than he bargained for.

-K-9′s and Blue Eyes by @lhstylinson9193 (36k)

Harry runs the police station’s K-9 unit and Louis is a single father to a newborn and has a few things to figure out.

Or Harry and Louis with puppies and babies.

-Survivors of the Wild by @bambiharrie (46k)

A dragon rider AU where Harry trips into being a rider and Louis is his badass mentor. Turns out, dragons love napping, long walks on the beach, and rolling their eyes.

-Rise Up Like the Sun by Star_Henderson (41k)

“I wasn't taking a sneaky pic.” Louis blurted out, the guy stood at one of the urinals taking a piss. “You were.” The guy answered coolly. “I would've taken a pic with you if you'd just asked.” “No I didn't want a pic with you.” The guy turned his head, quirking his eyebrow sardonically. “No you're far too cool for that, you just wanted to violate my privacy.” Louis squeezed his eyes shut. “I'm sorry. Look..” He walked towards the guy flicking his phone out. “Hey.” The guy hunched over, hiding his junk. “Oh no no, I wasn't gonna take a pic. Fuck.” Louis threw his hands up, stopping in his tracks. “Look I'm going to show you I'm deleting it.” Louis turned his phone and the pic disappeared. “You looked familiar, I was going to send it to my friend and ask who you were, I'm sorry, dick move.” Louis sighed, smiling apologetically. The guy zipped and walked to the basin. “So you invade my privacy then insult my level of fame by pretending to not know who I am.” The guy was turned away from Louis. “Look I'm...shit.” Louis inhaled noisily. The guy turned, a grin spread over his face. “I'm fucking with you.”

-Blind From this Sweet, Sweet Craving by @paynner (31k)

"So, I guess we'll go?" Louis asks later, when Harry has calmed down and eaten his weight in Chinese food. He plays with this chopsticks, spearing another piece of chicken and pops it in his mouth. "I mean, I wouldn't mind. We could make it an adventure."

Harry observes him, watches him seated across from him on their old living room carpet, with a container of food on his lap. He's fidgeting, avoiding meeting Harry's gaze–he probably knows that Harry's mad at him for ruining the one chance they had to get out of this situation. And he's not wrong, Harry is definitely very mad. Harry wants to strangle him and castrate him and smack him upside the head.

But he's also Harry's best friend, and despite everything, despite all the fuck-ups and the plot twists and everything just not playing out the way it should, he'd still rather be stuck in this situation with Louis than any of the other boys. He's got Harry's back, and in a weird, abstract way, he knows they'll be able to get out of this situation, together.

Harry sighs. "We're going," he says resignedly, his shoulders slumping.

Oh well. There are definitely worse ways to spend the weekend than pretending to be engaged to his best friend.

-Call Me Maybe by @otfourever (5k)

A middle-of-the-night walk home, a possible mugging, and a wrongly dialed phone number are the recipe for something beautiful.

-Alone In A Sea of Stars by panda_bear21 (21k)

He shifted his helmet, where it was still in his hands, watching the fluorescent lights shine off of Harry’s hair and reflect off his skin. Louis knew he would have to let Harry leave, but before doing so he licked over his dry lips, asking genuinely, “So are you going to follow me back to the ship again tomorrow or…?” Harry smiled in reply, dimples going all soft and sweet. “Going to wait until right before you close the doors again so you have no choice but to keep me.” Louis felt his skin warming and a small laugh bubbling up from his chest, as he bit down on his lower lip to stop his smile from growing. He cleared his throat, “I don’t know what you’re talking about. I could probably kick you out right now if I wanted.” The thing was, Louis knew he wouldn’t. He could wait at least ten more minutes before he let Harry leave. Maybe even twenty.

Based on the prompt: Louis is an astronaut who is sent to Neptune and really he expected to find a few old rocks but instead he found some kid who claims to be ten thousand years-old

-What’s New, Pussycat? by @prettykittyharru (55k)

Louis finds himself with a cat one night.

Soon after, he finds himself with a kitty boy.

-You Deserve It All by @all-these-larrythings (9k)

Just once Harry would like to face his ex and feel confident, but he's shit at confronting Nick and unfortunately his shopping skills aren't much better. Thankfully for him, the cute sales boy at the clothing shop knows a thing or two about fashion and making ex boyfriends green with envy.
