mutuals always making masterpieces and I think wow. and you're following me too. wild stuff
grabs your hand. you've had enough plot and exposition and character development lately im taking you to the beach episode
So then you'll lie in this heartache,
and the fact that you know it's always your fault
This race has everythingโฆa jump start (great start according to checo), lap one crash, safety car, max and lando having a dick measuring contest, sky commentators talking about max like he murdered their entire family, charles being waterboarded, the 400th race asteroid taking out dinosaur peepaw, max serving jail time, and ferrari forza-ing their way into 2nd in the constructors championship
mutuals. c'mere. this is a checkpoint. i am checking in. i am wrapping you in a blanket and giving you a nice warm drink. also some pretty flowers. it will be ok.
youre not โbad at artโ you just need to find a character to latch onto to where you draw them 1 million times and you improve dramatically
๐ฟ๐ฑ๐งจ๐ for the oc ask :00
OC asks
๐ฟ: what superstition or ritual do they cling to?
Lydon: God, this is so stupid but I love it dearly
Lydon was given a bracelet by a fan at a race, he didn't read it. He only noticed when he got to his hotel and took it off.
He won his first race that weekend, and now he's convinced it is a good luck charm.
Anytime he forgets to bring it with him, he has such a terrible race (ex, Australia, Monaco). It only sets his belief more. It's literally just dumb luck though and entirely coincidence.
Judas: Hmmmmmmmm. He's interesting because he's not superstitious, but he is grounded in routine. Once his helmet is on, he doesn't want anyone talking to him before the race. Only his engineer. And even then, he prefers to keep it to a minimum.
๐ฑ: What kind of future do they crave, and who's in it?
Lydon: I cannot think of this for Lydon, I have to come back to this at some point ๐
Judas: He craves success more than anything. He wants to be a champion. Judas doesn't necessarily care who is included in that. He will take what he needs to achieve.
๐งจ: what is the quickest way to set them off, even if they hide it well?
Lydon: False information. I think this applies to many parts of him actually. He gets annoyed when interviewers ask him questions about obviously false rumors. His engineer tells him wrong information about rain, other teams tire strategy, etc. He gets pissed on the radio.
But that comes down to his personal interactions too. He can take digs from other drivers just fine. Call him slow after a bad lap? Fair. But, when they're wrong? God, he can whip around and lay into them.
I suppose that's also why he can't leave Judas alone either. Lydon knows he's not being honest with himself.
And guess what? That's why he never refutes any of Judas' insults. He knows they're all true.
Judas: Mr. "The one fight I can't resist", a.k.a., Lydon. He's infatuated. He swings between the extremes. He is nothing but obsessive when it comes to him. Lydon knows him too well, and he is infuriated by it.
Judas can't stand to know that someone knows him by heart. He can't stand the fact that there is a single person who knows about his problems, his secrets, his personality. And he cannot stand the fact that it is out of his control.
Lydon can go toe to toe with him. And it sets Judas off in ways he cannot begin to fathom.
๐: what is a secret they've sworn to never tell?
Lydon: He never told Judas about the special helmet he had. Never told anyone about it.
* this post is so long already, I'm just gonna put the context under a cut instead ๐
Judas: He's kept all of the things Lydon gave him when dating. They're still in a box. It has moved multiple apartments with him.
* the context:
Gotta back pedal actually, bc I have no idea if I ever posted this to Tumblr before !!
Judas got into F1 a year before Lydon did. 2022. Lydon stayed in F2. They had been dating, in secret, for two years at that point.
Lydon has a special helmet done. It had pictures of them in karting, F3, F2. All the time they shared a space. Lydon was so proud of him.
"Congrats Judas!" was splashed over the top. Written in cursive. Judas always loved cursive.
He has the helmet tucked in his bag, walking around the paddock on media day. He's trying to hunt down Judas to show him.
What a shame though.
A shame finding out he's been dumped by seeing his boyfriend walk through the paddock with a pretty girl on his arm.
A shame that he yanked Judas between the hospitality buildings.
A shame that he was told they weren't serious. That they never were.
On the day of the race, Lydon said he disliked the design and switched to his regular helmet. No one questioned him or his red eyes.
And a shame that Judas said he could never be seen with someone like Lydon. Think of the sponsors. The fans. It's disgusting, right?
Judas had to say he tripped. That's why his nose was bleeding when he slipped back to the Aston Martin garage.
i love when i find more ppl on here that also like the freaky shit i like. oomf where the f stads for freak. hell yeah
Mila after finishing the race from 19th to 3rd
