THEY SAID WHAT???
*The first time Max and Charles met*
Max, internally: Wow, Charles seems great, he's good-looking. Wow, I'm... kinda in love. I definitely wanna get closer with him for sure
Charles: Hi, I'm Charles Leclerc, nice to meet you
Max, to Jos: Can you get rid of him?
Charles: Well, fuck you too
Max, internally: Fucking shit, Verstappen, come on, what the fuck

I've been thinking on this all day so I decided to chat a bit:
I love watching Charles perform miracles in his cars. Expecting a p6 or p7 and getting a p4 is lovely. In Monza hoping maybe for a podium after starting p4 and then winning it was glorious. There is nothing that gives you that same level of excitement like Charles performing a miracle.
But I don't want miracles.
I want Charles to have a serious and competitive car. Not for half a season, not for 4-6 races, not with the occasional engine dying. But a real serious car. One where he has confidence in it and when he does a "miracle" it isn't for p4 but for the win. It's so frustrating watching how much effort he puts into this team only to get nothing in return.
i saw your posts about fic recs and wondering, do you have any lestappen fic recs which have possessive/dark!max? i'm kinda in the mood to read some morally questionable max :D
of course, I do!! i'm obsessed with this concept, which is why i have two of my own fics coming out in the next couples weeks that fit this very prompt π
(almost all of these are pretty spicy, just so you're aware.)
he's so pretty when he: charles and max are part of an fia breeding program and get really into it.
carpe noctem: 1980s college au, max is obsessed with charles. (wip, very slow burn but oh my gooooood you need to read this if you haven't.)
perfect limits: max finds about the chussy and blackmails charles into giving him a show.
the long game: max baby traps charles. things get dark.
too little, too much: charles isn't allowed to come unless max says so.
bare your teeth verse: max claimed charles when they were very young and has to take care of him during his heats.
interlinked edit for my beloved lestappies
Norwegian Viaplay commentators saying how RBR havenβt put any top class drivers in that second Red Bull seat, and how it would be interesting to see a top class driver as Max's teammate, like Charles Leclerc.
Two more Lestappies confirmed.
Max to the (almost) rescue! π
Charles Leclerc needs a little help removing the Red Bull sticker from his back. π π₯: 1, 2 (2023 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix)
