Summary
Charles opens the door in his work out shorts and giant hoodie, half of his hair smooshed to the side of his head while the other sticks straight up. He's frantically trying to smooth it with one hand as he swings the door wide with the other, but gets distracted by Max standing there, red-cheeked and trying to pretend he isn’t panting.
The cloud of rainpancakesearthsyrup floods into his apartment, making Charles blink dazedly. It’s so fucking good. He can’t help but gasp a bit, surprised.
Max takes a final deep, almost heaving breath and shoots his arm out straight in front of him, a dark blue hoodie clenched in his fist. “Here.”
Charles doesn’t reach for it. He eyes Max, the sheen of sweat along his hairline, the fit of his relatively but not egregiously skinny jeans.
“Did you—did you run here?”
Max grimaces a little, then shrugs. “Brought this for you.”
*
Charles has spent the last 28 years highly sensitive to smell, usually to the detriment of his own well-being. So what if Max’s presence—and scent—have always helped with that?
So what if this is the year Max finally notices?

Summary
Charles, a Monégasque boy, loses his family in a single night of horror. He is dragged into a perverse system that trains Omegas in the arts of submission and lethal grace—a place where beauty is a weapon and innocence is a luxury commodity. His only compass is the promise of finding his missing siblings, a beacon shining through the fog of his indoctrination. On the other side, Max, a young Dutchman, witnesses the murder of one father and the disappearance of another. Marked by the cold fury of a mafia legacy he never asked for, he rises as a "Demon" within the Camorra clan, his deadly efficiency becoming the stuff of legend. Jules, trapped in the center, is the link that could either unite or destroy their worlds.
A story of revenge mistaken for redemption, of loyalties that bend like blades, and of a love that sprouts in the most sterile places, asking how far one can go to save a fragment of the soul in a world that specializes in crushing them. Is escape a liberation or a different kind of sentence? Is revenge an act of justice or the ultimate acceptance of the rules of the game?

Summary
Charles has been a caged bird for as long as he can remember; pretty and purposeless. Secretly he dreams of another life, one not so restrained to the designated roles of his gender. One where he's free to be whoever he wants. He yearns for the sea and the world beyond, to escape his cage and experience a love worthy of the stories he reads. A love for the ages.
Salvation comes in the shape of a pirate with a dark disposition and a curse that endeavours to draw them together and tear them apart all the same.

The F1 Society Papers by flechesdargent (644reasonswhy)
Fandom Bridgerton (TV), Bridgerton Series - Julia Quinn, Formula 1 RPF
01 Jul 2026
Summary
Dearest Gentle Reader,
One season alone may delight, but the discerning eye will know that scandal is never content to dwell in a single household. From the Silver Sentinel and the Jewel of the Coast, to the Kingdom’s Fist and the Sun of Maranello, from the Swan of the Thames and the Crown of the East, to the Wolf of the Waves and the Weaver of Whispers—this chronicler has seen it all.
Each pairing promises its own peril: rank undone by rivalry, brilliance consumed by fire, duty tested by desire, and fortunes tangled in silken threads. Yet across dukedoms and viscountcies, across coasts, crowns, and seas, one truth remains eternal: love is the Ton’s most treacherous scandal.
And rest assured, dear reader, I shall not miss a moment of it.

Summary
“Is that why you came here, baby?” The ‘baby’ part was supposed to be a joke, something to annoy Charles with, something for them to laugh about. So when Charles shivered and nodded almost looking like he didn’t mean to, Max groaned internally. There was no way this was happening. He had dreamed and fantasised about this for years.
: Set after the Grand Prix of Monza 2023 and Max's tenth consecutive win.

How To Clock Max's Tea by forgottencerulean for Lady_Something, HerefortheDrama
Fandoms: Formula 1 RPF

Summary
Lando can’t help but feel suspicious when he sees that both Max and Charles are hanging out and sick at the exact same time, especially during the summer break when they’re supposed to be on separate holidays.
It’s odd because, as far as he knows, Max and Charles don’t usually spend time together outside of the paddock—they aren’t even particularly close. What’s even stranger is that this isn’t the first time it’s happened. Or the second.
One instance could be a fluke, two might just be a strange coincidence, and three times is enough to make him raise an eyebrow. But four? That’s enough to set off alarm bells.
He begins to wonder if Max and Charles are far closer nowadays than anyone realizes. Is he being paranoid, or there’s a chance he’s losing his place as Max’s best friend?
Or: Lando + the drivers try to find out why Max and Charles keep getting sick at the same time, and he’s going to be a detective about it.
(at its core this is still a lestappen fic; the last 2 chapters are in max’s and charles’ pov which is most of the fic anyway)Bookmarked by Something_witty_here

Summary
“Okay, so they both like each other. We need to get them together.”
“How? Lando’s too freaked out to think straight and Oscar is the human embodiment of the standing man emoji.”
Charles purses his lips for a moment before he snatches his boyfriend’s phone up from the other side of the table.
“What are you doing?”
“Initiating Mission Landoscar.”
“Did you just make that up?”
Charles waves at him dismissively as he begins texting, and Max lays his head down on the coffee table and prays for strength.
***
In which Max tries to prove to an oblivious Charles how glaringly obvious it is that Lando is head over heels in love with Oscar. When Charles finally gets with the program, Lestappen go on A Mission™ to get the two idiots to admit their feelings for each-other, but it’s easier said than done.

Summary
Max Verstappen, a Formula One Driver born and broken for the sport, has known many things in his life. But racing? It was practically part of his anatomy, it laced his veins and bloomed in his lungs, it was all he was, all he would ever be. There was nothing that he hadn’t done, nothing that he hadn’t already given up, for this sport.
The three-time World Champion was no stranger to how harsh their secluded world could be.
One is the loneliest number there ever was, and even the top step isn’t stranger to the cold.
An all too familiar darkness tends to consume the raging storm that’s been brewing for years, but the burning sunset might just be his salvation yet.
