Having a rich boyfriend has a lot of perks. Having two rich boyfriends has even more perks which is exactly where you landed. Dating Max Verstappen and Oscar Piastri was like having two black cats that only liked certain people but their favorite one was you. Not that you minded one bit. Oscar and Max actually meshed very well together, you brought the bit of adventure they needed, and they kept you grounded when needed. Everything was perfect like the final pieces of a puzzle coming together.

There was one catch though.

The catch was Max and Oscar had their golden retriever type best friends that you cannot separate. If you try to separate their best friends nothing but chaos will ensue so often (even if one pair refuses to admit they’re friends behind the scenes) thus, Lando and Charles will pop over to Max and Oscar’s joint hotel rooms because “Max and Oscar haven’t shown us a sign of life so we’re here to kidnap them.” You are more than glad to have Max and Oscar go and socialize when you’re there during the race season but it’s now turned into you also being dragged along because Max and Oscar are “always in a sour mood when you aren’t around,” according to Lando and Charles so you go but it’s always fun, no matter what the adventure is.

“IKEA? Really?”

“Yes, really.” You huff as you check your purse before glancing up, “you two gifted me a penthouse. We have to shop and decorate it.”

“We can just hire people to do that for us.”

“Max is right." Oscar starts, “Besides, you’ll probably be staying with Max or I anyway so.” He offers a nonchalant shrug.

You let out a noise as you look at your two boyfriends. “No! You two bought me the penthouse! I’m going to use the penthouse! Besides, it’s so big and spacious,” You say as you twirl in your spot, “and it’s lovely. Even if I’m not here often I’d like a place to come back to when I can’t go with you guys during the race seasons or, respectfully, when I need me time.”

“You can me time at our places,” Max frowns.

You go over and gently pat both their cheeks, “I love you both so much, but that’ll last about a good ten minutes before one or both of you wander in before trapping me for cuddles.”

“��She’s got us there,” Oscar murmurs as Max glances at Oscar, a playful sour look on his face because Oscar was right. There was no real way to argue their way out of this one. Max sighs and looks back at you. “Okay. Fair. You got us there but why do we have to go to IKEA? Seriously give me about five minutes and I’ll have people—”

“Nooooo,” you groan as you drop your hands, “that’s so boring! That takes out such a fun aspect of owning something! Nothing brings a couple closer than building IKEA sets and getting super frustrated at the instructions and the sense of pride when you figure it out!” You pout looking at your boyfriends, “Will you please come with me?”

Oscar and Max look at each other silently having a conversation. They both cave in as they nod to each other and look back at you. “Okay, fine.” Oscar says, smiling slightly, “You win. We’ll go to IKEA with you.”

“Yes! Oh this will be great!” You say and double check you have everything before hoisting your purse strap up your arm and heading to do the door. “Come on! Lando and Charles are probably waiting for us!”

“Okay.” The boys call in unison before they register your words. “Wait, what?!”

You happily park the car and climb out, giddy seeing the familiar giant dark blue and white building with their yellow lettering staring in front of you. IKEA. Your home away from home. You don’t bother waiting for Max and Oscar as you head to the sidewalk, finally looking at your phone. Your eyes study the photo Lando sent you from where they parked, which was much closer. Looking up, your eyes scan before finding the custom Lamborghini Urus and the ‘LN4 15’ license plate on the back. You make your way over and don’t think as you open the back door to climb in, as this is a habit for you two.

“Guess whOOOOOOOOOAH—” You shriek at the sight before you.

Instead of Lando and Charles being in the front, as you expected, they were cramped in the back. Legs were tangled, hands were roaming as short brown hair has a hand tightly grabbing it. You blink seeing Lando’s head that was tilted back snap forward as Charles freezes above him forcing his gaze to find yours as he nips at Lando’s neck. The three of you stare at each other before Charles and Lando are scrambling to sit up, Charles smacking his head against the top and rubbing his head face flushing. Lando sits up quickly face equally blush as he turns his attention to Charles for a moment. “Are you okay babe?”

Your jaw drops open at the question before you close the door and look away in shock for the cameras. If this was a sick joke the cameraman needs to cut the cameras. Come out and expose themselves. But no cameras could be found but Oscar and Max who were swiftly making their way over to you raise brows at your expression. You turn back and open the door again, Lando now straddling Charles with his head tucked to his chest, going on about how ‘i’m going to trap you in a bubble’ as Oscar and Max peer in, also stunned at the sight, “Babe!?” You finally ask.

“What?!” Max and Oscar asks, heads snapping to you as Lando and Charles once again are frozen and also look at you. Oscar and Max turn back to their best friends before looking between you and their friends before finally Max speaks. “What the hell is going on!?”

“Maaaaax.” Charles starts, “Oscaaaar. Y/nnnnn. Heeeeey.” He continues as both Lando and Charles’ face are beet red. “Well—” He starts.

“Charles and I got bored waiting so we were making out.” Lando blurts out.'

“Lando!”

“I’m sorry! They were going to ask!”

“…Babe?” Oscar repeats and Lando looks at his teammate and best friend before smiling sheepishly, “Surprise!” Lando says.

Max is staring in shock while Oscar shakes his head. You can’t help but giggle but then Oscar jokes, “Cannot believe you’re dating my dad. Isn’t that breaking some kind of code?” and you break into laughter. Lando also cannot help the laugh that escapes him which causes a chain of laughs as Lando and Charles climb out of his car, locking it behind him. “You’re right Osc, I am breaking bro code and I’m sorry.” Lando slings an arm over Oscar’s shoulders. “But he’s just so hot,” before laughing as Oscar shoves him telling him he’s “disgusting”.

“Well!” You announce as you clap your hands together, “We can freak out about the revelation of Charles and Lando’s new blooming relationship after! Today, we’re here to shop for the penthouse and the only way to do that is test running things.”

The boys look at you in confusion. You stare back, “What? Have you guys never gone to IKEA and acted out different scenarios?”

“No,” the four say in unison.

“Oh. Well! Today is the day,” turning on your heels, “onward!” You point before skipping to the entrance with the four guys taking a moment to ask themselves what the fuck before following you. You all opt for the stairs seeing how crowded the elevator was. You immediately grab a bag for any non furniture items before wandering into the store.

You go through the show rooms slowly but surely. The living rooms are cute but not exactly what you want so thankfully you take photos of what you do like and see what you can pair together. Then you guys enter the kitchen and your eyes light up before making your way to the counter. You glance back seeing the boys talk and you shake your head before Lando wanders over. “Oh my god,” He says looking around, “I love what you did to your kitchen.”

Thank god for Lando.

“Oh my goodness, thank you.” You say and grab the two glasses in the show room and pretend to pour you and Lando a drink, “So you wanted to talk?”

“Oh yes.” Lando nods slowly, “I did.” He takes the glass and pretends to drink it via air sip, “Well, you know I don’t like to gossip—” You see Charles’ head snap at his favorite word ‘gossip’ as you keep character as you nod. “You? Gossip? No never. I also don’t like to gossip.”

“Right, right. But you know, like…” He lets his voice trail off, “you know I like. You know I don’t judge—”

“No no you never do! You know I’m the last person to speak ill to speak on someone.”

“Never! You know we never clocked in a day. Not a single shift at the hater headquarters.” Lando slowly shakes his head, “cause we aren’t those type of people.”

“Oh, god no. Not our style at all—Oh my god! Charles hey!” You say as the Ferrari driver wanders over, “do you want a drink.”

It takes Charles a moment before he gets it. This is what you meant by ‘test run’. “I would love a drink actually.” He leans on the kitchen island, “so what are you two talking about?”

You pretend to get him a drink, “Oh you know—”

“Ollie.” Lando says pretending to sip his drink, “but you know we’re not one to gossip.”

“Oh of course not. This is like—good journalism.” Charles says as he takes the glass from you but he’s locked in about his adopted baby brother. Max and Oscar wander over and watch the scene unfold, glancing at each other then the three of you.

“Right!” Lando adds on.

“I mean, myself? I’m a bit of a mathematician.” You start, pretending to swirl your drink. “I’m just taking some data points.” Lando and Charles nod in agreement. “I mean, we’re like a study group you know? I got notes. You guys got notes. We all got notes. It would be rude note to share those notes to help everyone involved, right?” Lando and Charles nod while Max and Oscar question silently what the fuck is going on.

There’s a small silence before Lando lean forward, “So here’s what I know about Ollie.” You and Charles instinctively lean forward. Lando glances around before leaning in and glances at Max and Oscar, “you guys either need to lean in for good journalism or walk away.” Max huffs while Oscar just signs and leans on the counter. Max slowly looks at Oscar before sighing before joining the council.

“So…” Lando starts, “You know, Ollie just recently moved here. Well,” Lando glances at the table then back at the glass as if he got something in there, “I happen to see a certain, Mercedes driver leave his apartment complex today…” You gasp as Charles slams his hand down on the counter, “I knew it!”

“I’m sorry, we were suppose to think they were "just friends” or…” Max lets his voice trail off as Oscar snorts. You look at your boyfriends while smiling and shaking your head before collecting the glasses and putting the showroom back together. You three wander to another kitchen showroom while Charles is ranting Lando’s ear off. This time you, Max, and Oscar have one of your typical “arguments” which was Max and Oscar pleading their cases on why they could stay in for the fifth night in a row to take care of you while you explained that '“I’m on my period. I love you both so much but if I don’t have me time for more than ten minutes I’m gonna start screaming or sobbing.” In the end, it settled on them going out to get dinner and bringing you back something before three of you laugh because it felt like every other day.

Each showroom was a different scenario. Lando and Charles in a toxic marriage arguing while hosting as you, Max, and Oscar are the poor friends caught in the middle. Another was Max and Oscar dating you not only being the snitch but the mistress (scandalous). Oscar and Lando being roommates who are SO down bad for each other. You and Charles being enemies confronting each other (fake play fighting included). Early 2000’s college students pre gaming for a night out. You name it, they probably did it.

You guys finally make it to the second floor after enjoying your test runs. You actually pick things out before ordering the big furniture since Max and Oscar had been convinced you guys weren’t going to find things so his car won’t fit anything and making sure you got kitchen installation through IKEA. After buying the smaller things, you drag them all to the food before you’re all sitting down, eating meatballs and giggling back on the different scenarios. Even Max and Oscar had fun which was a win for you.

“When is your furniture arriving?” Oscar asks after saying goodbye to Lando and Charles before heading to Max’s car

“Tomorrow morning.”

“Will you be up to answer the door?” Oscar raises a brow as Max lets out a laugh.

“Haha, very fun, I will.” You stick your tongue out while Oscar chuckles and kisses your cheek.

“Did you hire them to assemble it as well?” Max asks.

“Just the kitchen.” You explain and Max nods as he takes the bag and puts it in the trunk. “Everything else you guys have to build.” “We?” Max asks. “Didn’t you say part of the bonding experience was for us to build it together?”

“I did. But why would I lift a finger when you two can do it for me?” You smile, “Silly boys. I’m here for moral support and to hand you things! You guys do the actual manual labor. I’ll buy lunch?”

“And dinner.” Oscar adds and Max nods.

“Deal.”

yo yo, guess who got new gear ;>

[blinkybopsb137]

IT FUNCTIONS!

For context, I'm working on a game and this is footage of just how excited I was that it functioned.

Bonus: giant man

I don't own the blue sketch, though I was unable to find the og creator. I just use it as a file to experiment on/do tests with, thus the name Test3. The shading was actually the result of a past test.

[angelicmoonstone]

Look, Mom! Procreate evolved!

Jk she doesn't love me.

Trying HiPaint because heard it's like Procreate. It's good. Just little frustrating. I just need to get used to it.

(Also yes black sesame ice-cream is a real thing. Look it up)

[cows-have-secrets]

Practicing making some dividers and banners! This is just a test run ✨

[likesdoodling]

I am learning how to use Adobe Photoshop!

YEAH

This is a test run of sorts.

(My focus ran out for following the actual tutorial I was looking at, so I just decided to look stuff up as I needed instead).

I'm doing an online program which requires photoshop or else I wouldn't have bothered- but it's pretty cool so far. Kinda making me wonder if I need to reset my Krita brush sensitivity settings though, because photoshop is way more intuitive. Like, it actually feels like I'm sketching with a pencil-

*wipes away imaginary tear-

Which is just cool, y'know?

Especially since I find doing line weight way easier with a pencil than digitally.

Anyway. Here is a sketch- (I'm calling it that because the lineart is literally a sketch that I didn't bother refining before going 'she'll be right' and colouring it in anyway-) of Rozemyne.

Because she is the first person who came into my head.

I just like drawing blue hair.

It's cool.

And I've drawn Rozemyne a lot so it's easier than having to actually look up reference.

(The face doesn't look that much like her really, but it's not the end of the world. Her hair is identification enough right?)

Ya know?

:D

SPOILER/TEST:

So I'm still writing my next update while working on my side projects. This is a sort of plot I've wanted to do for a bit but I can't make up stories without a little world building. So tell me how we feel about this:

(this is super vague since it's technically an ending to a chapter but I wanna know if the vibes and stuff are there.)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Billy scoffed, his gaze flicking between us. "What's it to you, Harrington? You sweet on this little freak? I thought that was what Wheeler was here for.”

Steve's jaw clenched, his usual charming demeanor replaced by a steely glare. You on the other hand, bristled at the insult. But before you could respond, Steve interjected with a sneer of his own. 

"Please. I couldn't care less about her. But she happens to be the Chief's niece, and I'd rather not have him breathing down my neck for causing her trouble. So, freak or not, leave her alone. There’s plenty of other girls willing to warm you up right now.” he finished, nodding for him to move on.

Billy's expression darkened, but he reluctantly backed off, muttering something unintelligible as he disappeared into the crowd.

Everyone dispersed after that. Displeased and muttering while you stayed backed up against the wooden gate. It wasn’t until you heard a throat clearing that you picked your gaze again to see that Steve and Nancy were still there.

“You okay?” Steve asked gruffly, looking at you carefully. 

“I’m fine.” you muttered, looking away from the two. 

“You sure? Billy’s just an asshole, so don’t worry about him.” he said, taking a step forward. That’s when you flinched back, not quite sure why you were so shaken up. It wasn’t like anything was going to happen. It couldn’t have, not with the amount of people at the party. 

“Let me get her friend, I think I saw him somewhere inside.” Nancy said, leaving Steve’s side to venture back to the house. The music worked hard to keep out the awkward silence between the two of you. That is, until Steve felt the need to speak up.

“You’re welcome, by the way.”

Snapping your head up, you watched as Steve ran a hand through his hair. “I’m sorry, what?”

“I said you’re welcome,” he repeated, taking a step forward anyway. “For the whole thing with Billy just now. You could at least be thankful.”

Something about his tone had you scoffing at his audacity. “Yeah, totally.” you said, forcing a relieving laugh. “I mean, how can I ever repay you for both calling me a freak and apparently fragile since I’m the Chief’s niece.”

Steve's expression darkened, his jaw tightening again. "It's not like that," he protested, his voice strained. "I was just... trying to get that asshole off your back. I mean, it’s a party..we should just all have fun, right?”

“Well, I am having such a great time, Steve.” you saluted, pushing yourself off the fence finally.  

“Ace!”

Over Steve’s shoulder, you watched as Jonathan made a dash through the crowd of people, making it around the pool carefully before he was able to get to where you two were. 

“Whoa, hey, Nancy told me that stuff went down. You okay?”

“She’s alright.” Steve answered for you. “But I think she’s had her fill of fun for the night.” 

Jonathan frowned at Steve’s words. Seemingly confused as to why not only was Steve speaking for you, but apparently dismissing you. Little did he know that it was more insulting than either of you let on. 

“Um, did you wanna go?” he asked wearily. 

“Yeah, he’s right.” you nodded, reaching to tug your friend to your side. “I’m done.”

A part of you really wanted to bite back at Steve. Make him feel bad for everything, but with a simple raised brow, defeat already felt so imminent.

“Good.” Was all he said before he turned on his heels and returned back to his hosting duties. 

Quietly, Jonathan led you back to the gate, choosing the back exit of the house in order to leave. And while you were relieved, you couldn’t help but feel the twist in your gut still lingering around. 

In the end, Steve Harrington may have saved you from Billy Hargrove, but he couldn't erase the sting of his words—or the realization that, despite the brief moment, you were still nothing more than a Freak to the King.

Day 3836 - A great thing about having slightly older babies in our family is that we can try out their stuff to see if our little one even likes it before acquiring something ourselves. (In this case the standing setup here was a hit, but we're still a smidge too short!)
